user27053: I followed this tutorial on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9lZ5Qy5S2s
Where he provided the code below. The problem I'm having is the serial monitor shows nothing. I tried changing the baud to 115200 and still nothing showed up. I'm using an Arduino nano.
Update: I wrote a Serial.print in each function (printing the name of the function), and I found it just printed up to "recordAccelRegisters" then stopped. Then I put a Serial.print after each line in the function, and it prints until the line 
while(Wire.available() < 6);
Is this a problem with the while function or I2C?
Ok, so I reinstalled Arduino and got this message on the serial print with the I2C test: 
"Scanning... I2C device found at address 0x69  ! done."

user27053: Ground the AD0 pin. I thought the address should be set to 0x68 without this, but from what I've seen it fluctuates between 0x68 and 0x69. If you want the address to be 0x69 short the AD0 pin to 5V. I guess this would be useful if you need to use 2 MPU6050s with different I2C addresses without doing something in software. Haven't looked into that yet
Still, the I2C scanner for arduino may be useful for detecting the address/debugging: http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/I2cScanner
