Floppy drive not playing anything

[Aryan3040]

I have my pins set up as
pin 11 to 12
pin 18 to pin 3 on the arduino
pin 20 to pin 2 on the arduino
and pin 19 to ground.
the floppy drive is being powered by the Arduino on 5v line
I tried the troubleshooting tactics and the stepper motor moves but the music does not play
The green light is on by the way
I am using the gui version of the software
I am using Arduino mega 2560

• When you say, "the stepper motor moves," do you mean when you manually tap the wires together?
• Do the startup tones play when the Arduino is reset?
• Does the GUI controller successfully see and connect to the Arduino? (A screenshot might be helpful for this part)

yes it moves when i manually tap wires
no it has never played the startup tones
i see data transfer when i execute code

If it doesn't play startup tones and doesn't show as a detected device in the GUI, it's likely that for whatever reason the Arduino firmware flashing process was not successful. Take a close look at the console in the Arduino IDE after you press upload, the error messages can be sort of subtle sometimes.
