iTouch

I was wondering can you sync information and songs from one iPod to another? I was just wondering because I have a classic iPod 5th generation and I was thinking of purchasing an iTouch.

No. I have to use my PC as an intermediary.

Synching Ipod

Actually you cannot synch information from an ipod to another one as Apple has forbidden it... they don't want for us to give music to friends / exchange.

So what you have to do is take your new ipod and connect it to your computer. It will synch up to your new Ipod all the content of your old one given the fact that your computer has all of the old content.
