Having trouble setting up first print

I'm using ultimaker cura, was going to print out a thingiverse model but I can't seem to get it working properly. When I actually try printing it just goes back and forth in a straight line and the filament gets stuck on the extruder. I'd appreciate any help in getting this sorted out.

    Welcome @bamvsgame , can you please confirm a few things. Have you tried printing the sample print on the SD card, does that work? If so, can you please upload your gcode file here for us to check? Which version of cura are you using? Which specific printer do you have?

    I'm using Cura V4.4, I tried the sample print but received the same results. Tried to follow setup instructions best I could so I'm not sure what went wrong. Am testing with the filament that came with it. I was using basic profile settings that Cura came with.

    Ok, print file should be ok. It sounds to me like the print is not sticking to the bed? Please see this page for tips:
