Answer to: Can u upgrade a 6GB iPod touch
I'm not sure what you're asking, but I'll give an answer. You can upgrade the operating system of a Touch via iTunes. You cannot upgrade any of the hardware. If you want a more powerful Touch, you have to buy it. -
Answer to: Where is the memory of the iPod touch?
An iPod touch isn't like a regular computer. You can't easily remove the flash drive and memory from a Touch logic board and replace/upgrade them. If you want more power, you have to get a better Touch. If your logic board is fried, you need to order a replacement board. -

Answer to: Why cant I sync music onto my I pod
Do you have iTunes loaded? You'll need to do a "restore to factory settings" in iTunes. This will erase all the settings the previous owner used, then you can customize the iPod with your music, photos, etc. Here is the direct link for downloading iTunes to your main computer: http://www.apple.com/itunes/ Good luck! -
Answer to: Really odd quirks...what's wrong with it?
I also am a newbie to working on the iPods and have taken apart a couple of them. It sounds like this might be a logic board problem, your Nano may have water damage. The only way to find out about this is to disassemble the iPod and look for corrosion. If there is corrosion, it could be shorting out the logic board. Cleaning tips are available throughout these forums. However, the battery must be fully discharged or be disconnected before using any sort of cleaner! The gen 5 iPods are a pain to disassemble, they have many small parts. Work slowly and carefully. Good luck!
