There are a few differences... let me know if these seem important.

1) I am using a different iPod than the iPod I used when I installed the DICE

2) This iPod worked fine yesterday, but I updated this iPod last night to version 1.2. It would not work today.

Those are the only differences I can think of.

Also, the DICE is not charging the iPod. This seems important... like something is disconnected. However, I checked the connections, and everything appears to be plugged in properly.
