Apple did a firmware upgrade and locks out other applications than
iTunes from using it.

hacks have been created around this for all utilities. You could try
using Banshee, Amarok or GTKPod to access the iPod device and see if
that helps. Other than that, providing detailed info about the crash
is always a good idea.
