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.

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

Hi there,i'd like to buy a new 8GB mp3, but, i'm confused between the new ipod nano and zune. people say that the 3rd gen nano has a great battery life now, but, i'm discouraged from transferring my music files to itunes and changing the format (i've been using windows media. so, they're mostly in .wma)Is it true that Zune's software is crippled?being an experienced useer, would you recommend zune or nano? =)thanks a bunch!!

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

There is no shuffle option. It plays in the same order and starts where you left off.

It's either plays ALL the songs in alphabetical/numerical order or just one song. There's not a random option. I have it set to play on song only ..... and when I get bored of that song ill make it play another ONE song. Hope this helps. :)

I don't have an iPod shuffle so I cant answer your question. Be advised, though, I wish I hadn't wasted my money on this product. You will probably be sorry too.

Well, there won't be problems, you will just have to sync your ipods manually. That will allow you to have all of your songs on itunes, but only pick and choose which ones go onto the ipod. This is if you have itunes 7.... when you plug your ipod in that little ipod page will pop up. click the box that says "manually manage ipod". With that you will have to click and drag songs you want on your ipod.... yes yes its annoying, but it works. For any other version of itunes, go to "edit" then "preferences". You should see a tab that says "ipod". Click that then there should be something that says "manually manage ipod". Ive got itunes 7... but i think that should be where it is for any other version. What might make it easier is if you create separate playlists for you and your sister. Then you could just drag the whole playlist onto your ipod. Hope this helped!

Ok Jan! My guess you are really talking about "shuffle mode". This mode ramdomly goes from one song to song to another, but not in the order you have them in. It appears that your player is jumping around from song to song. Check it out. See if you are in the setting " Random Shuffle Mode". If it is! GET OUT OF IT! Hope this helps!

I had the same question beforehand and never got a straight answer. As far as I can tell there is NO shuffle/random function on the unit. When playing songs off the SD card it always plays them in the same (alphabetical) order. The "Repeat" button just turns the repeat function off and on, and the "Mode" button just changes the input. There is no mention of a "shuffle" function in the instructions. The lack of a shuffle/random function is the only criticism I have though...otherwise it is a great little device.

Sort of. You can create a playlist with a particular order on iTunes then put it on the iPod shuffle. You can also use the "voice over" button which tells you the song's artists, title, etc.

you can't. All you can do is skip song by song, typical Apple. If you like loading your Sandisk you'll hate iTunes for sure. It's hard to just load songs by selecting them randomly. I have 25gb of music so I can't sync my 2gb ipod with iTunes - I just get the first 2gb.

Yes you can shuffle, you can shuffle everything, the songs within an album, the songs within a genre, or the songs by an artist. That said, mine has the peculiarity that after it's been playing in shuffle mode for a while it takes itself out of shuffle mode and starts playing all the songs in alphabetical order. Must be some sort of software bug. But not a problem. Just takes three clicks to put it back in shuffle mode.

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-)

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.

I wasnt for sure what you mean but if you have a Icloud account then what you have to do is if you dont already have a apple itunes account make one. Then sync the cloud with ur itunes its very easy then synce your new Ipod nano 2nd gen my personal favorite I have 5 of them to your Itunes account then drag the songs you want into your Ipod nano its simple I hope I answered your question feel free to email me with any more questions at. dee.lindsay327@gmail.com. Thank you

In my experience, it plays the tracks in the order they were added to the device. Once the last track has played, it starts over again at the first track you added. Additionally, you can turn on shuffle play so that they play in a random order.
