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.

You can plug a usb flash drive and it will shuffle through different play list and you can play whatever, I have almost 8000+- songs and 80 different play list and I can use the unit to shuffle through it and play whatever I want. You can play your iPod, any phone through the six jack or even play pandora and I heart radio through your phone and the blue tooth is great. Hope that helps

I have put audio books on my nano and currently have seven on there. I had a little trouble initially getting them from Audible.com to my iPod but all it took was checking the audiobooks I wanted and syncing the iPod. I love it.

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

Yeah, personally I can't imagine trying to use a shuffle for books or podcasts even. I also had a second gen shuffle die on my in only a few weeks. IMO you really want at least a nano.

Using iTunes you can move music from any Apple type device to another. You would have to sync the nano first and go through the setup but as long as your iTunes has the music you want on the nano on there you can do it.

Does it have a shuffle?? I thought I read no it didn't then someone giving advise on a shuffle feature for this product...shuffle or no shuffle. It seems to be an issue with the songs playing through??

it has a shuffle all option which works the same as a random option, when u first choose the music option from the main menu the first choice it offers is shuffle all

I put my ipod on shuffle and just hit next and it doesn't play the next song in order. You can still hit next when the head unit is in ipod control mode, so there's really no reason to put it in head unit control mode

You have to convert your songs to mp3. Files from ITunes who'll come out in that .ma4 and are only compatible with Apple. You can get a number of free converters online to switch your songs to .mp3

Hi Savanna - Again, thanks for your question! our Shuffles, they are 2 GB -enough memory power for about 15 hours of music. We would love to be able to offer our customers more storage capacity, but Apple does not currently make an iPod Shuffle music player with more than 2 GB storage capacity. Best regards, and happy swimming.. Ivan at Swim Audio

I bought it to use with my generation 4 iPod shuffle, but the directions say it can be used with iPod nano 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th generation iPod nano. Unfortunately, it doesn't mention 6th generation. Sorry, I couldn't be more help.

I did not facing this problem. I have more than 100 songs (mp3), and it working well.At first, I also wonder it will function correctly, so i have tried to press next/previous button then the songs is randomly changed.So, maybe you can try to press the next/previous button to see whether it change to others song.

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!

Most definitely. I currently have 11 apps and 4,343 songs. Phew! Anyway, I actually want more on my iPod but it is very close to being full. I can fit a couple more albums on there but that's about it. I have the 32 GB and I wish I could have afforded the 64 GB version because then I won't run out of space. 32 GB is definitely a lot but for me it's certainly not enough! :)

You can listen to anything you would normally be able to download to your iPod shuffle. If you already have another iPod shuffle then it will act exactly the same. Does that make sense?

The short (and smart-ass) answer is a lot. However, doing a quick calculation of the average number of MB for each song and the fact that the Shuffle has a 2GB capacity, I figure about 275 songs.
