The most likely reasons would be either low battery, something else is trying to talk to the device and preventing MacDive from accessing it, or the cable is not attached properly. My own GEO 2 can be a little tricky to attach correctly. Sometimes clipping/unclipping and trying a few times is the best fix.
Most likely it's the cable, but those are the main reasons for this particular error.

CHANGING THE BATTERY WORKED FOR THIS PROBLEM.
