Ermm what bob is it.? you don't need 5v just a big enough difference between Hi and Low at 3.3v there's not a big enough differential and so unreliable signals.
Give me some details of what you have and I'll have a look.

Yes it should be port 1 and then the pin you assign it to on your bob.
Like i said before post the XML file and I can load it into Mach here and check it for you. Often it's just a simple setting that like this that stops every thing working.?
