This article is an excellent guide on how to remove songs from an ipod onto a computer that no longer has those music files: http://reviews.cnet.com/transfer-ipod-songs/I have sadly had to use it when my external hard drive just stopped working one day. You can download them to you computer from your ipod shuffle and then upload them from the computer to the ipod nano. Hope this helps :)

They pretty much have to be synced in order for them to be downloaded from your PC to an iPod

Sure... if your songs are sync'ed with your computer, when you plug in your new iPod, just re-sync with iTunes to the new iPod and it will copy everything over (depending on how you've configured it). I have three different iPods connected to my Mac, two of them are hard drive based, and so they both are mirror images of each other.

yes it is similar to an apple ipod in this sense. it will never play the same track twice in random unless you completely played all your songs in the shuffle

Apple iPod shuffle 2 GB Blue (4th Generation) NEWEST MODEL Matheus Weber, The newest iPod Shuffle is the Fourth Generation. It looks a lot like the iPod Shuffle Second Generation, but it's slightly smaller. If you were to base shuffles off of design and size then the iPod Nano Sixth Generation would be considered the newest shuffle. Also Apple has put buttons back onto the shuffle itself. We are no longer required to buy six or seven replacement headphones to control that terribly small device known as the iPod Shuffle Third Generation. Godspeed! ~SWWPD

I just spoke with an Apple rep as I am also frustrated with Cover Flow. He said to: (1) plug my ipod into my computer / iTunes(2) go to my nano's Summary page (where you can see the storage space or refresh the unit, etc)(3) click on the Music tab(4) uncheck Display Artwork-- I hope that helps!

Don't know about the Nano, doesn't change track with iPod 3rd generation, or with iPhone 3GS, or iPad, starts and stops music, adds bass, and has volume control, have no idea how it would change tracks. Sorry if this doesn't help.

Any musuc I download whether through itunes or not can be added to my itunes library and in turn added to the ipod shuffle. In fact most songs I have were purchased through Napster or some place similar.

LOL... too old for an iPod? I've got 4 iPods, and a music library of well over 5000 songs, and I'm 66 years old. I plan on using them for many years to come. 8-)

My Ipod, is a Nano, so not so new, but I use it every day and have recently downloaded new tunes from itunes. It works great!

Hi, If you visit the Apple website it will explain how you can label your songs on an iPod shuffle.

Because you are using it for movies, you must get the 8gb model, the 4gb will fill up too fast. The 4 gb model is ok for a moderate sized music collection, most of those 30 or more gb players are usually mostly empty for most people, but not for movies. Since a 3g shuffle was just introduced, I would strongly recommend waiting for an update for the nano, im betting a 16 gb model is coming, frankly I'm surprised the current nanos don't come in a 16gb model, I think they are just trying to sell more ipod touches, which i cannot recommend unless you have a huge pile of cash to get rid of.

Matheus Weber, You were almost correct. Apple did not release a new iPod Shuffle in 2011, but they released the iPod Nano Sixth Generation as a type of replacement. The reason that most of the comments are dated back to 2010 is because that was the year the newest model of the iPod Shuffle (Fourth Generation) was released.Godspeed!~SWWPD

No, you can't rewind the song. It's just like a iPod. You can go forward to the next song or backwards to the previous song.

We each have our preferences, but listening to books on a shuffle is certainly not one of mine. As has been pointed out, there's no way to see where you are in the book, and it doesn't use a scroll wheel like a nano or other ipod to make finding your place easy. Since I usually convert CD audio books to MP3 and ipod formats I've found that when you have a long book (say 12-24 CDs), it's quite easy to lose your place if you ever do anything else with your ipod (and you certainly can't do much with a shuffle), it can be incredible PITA to get back to where you were. I finally dumped my shuffle.I'd recommend a nano (5th Gen is superior to the newest model in my opinion) or anything with a screen.

I just bought the Nano and it's way smaller than the Shuffle is. I used my nephew's IPOD and that's what made me want one, but i LOVE the Nano because of the size. Some of it wasn't intuitive for me, but my husband picked it up and had no problems with it. Once I saw how to do a couple basic things on it, I was set to go and didn't need any help at all. He thought that it would be good to have the screen and at first I didn't care, but now that I've used it, I can see why you want it. After using both, I'd have to go Creative Labs all the way.

We have had occasion to shuffle only two decks. It does that, missing a couple now and then. Advertisement is that it will shuffle six decks. There's room to do that in the shuffler; but as I said, we haven't tried it. We have noticed that the more cards the better.
