are accesories necessary: I saw on a tv sale show this 4th generation ipod shuffle for $99, but it came with 2 earphone sets, splitter, car adapter, retractable audio cable and power adapter. i only need and want a lightweight item that i can download...

That's a lot of junk for no reason. The 4th generation charges from your USB serial port. You just need a basic 2 Gb model for $45.

It's made for every device before the iPhone 5 so yes you will need to get an adapter but they are fairly inexpensive! Great sound and overall a great purchase you'll love it!

It comes with the iPod and the cord to update/charge. Over a year and I've never had any issues. Head up, you should probably get a case for it. I just bought a clear one for less than $5 and it definetly came in hand as many times as I drop mine.

Gregory, I didn't even use them because the add was very misleading or I misunderstood the description. I believe that you need an SD card with music on it in order to use this device. There should be a USB cord that comes with it. Hope this helps.

Everything that I needed was in there and hen some. It really depends on what you will use on a regular basis. For example, it came with an audio splitter connector. I know I wont use that on a regular or semi regular basis for that matter, BUt its nice to know its there if I need it.

I'd see if I could get this kind of adapter locally. For example, our local BestBuy had one for a dollar, I think.The headphones? Haven't used them much; initial thoughts: pretty good sound, not the most comfortable.

No, I always buy my kids headphone that are around $10-$20. They lose them. My daughter never has had problems connecting her earphones to her ipod in the case.

As long as the iPod has a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is the normal standard for such things, it'll be fine. If not, or if you want to use it with other devices, then you'll need a jack adapter. These are really lightweight but not necessarily "fragile" so you're hardly aware you've got them on and the sound is really good.

If you bought the original iPod then all charging cables and headphones should have been included. You don't need anything extra to use the iPod.

you people and these questions. does this adaptor sale say ANYTHING about an ipod/ iphone 5? NNNOOOOOO. OMG!

It's set up to connect through the regular iPod or Nano connection. I am pretty sure the Shuffle has a different kind of connection. More important, though: I returned mine because it was really complicated (way too complicated for my kids) and, worse, sounds horrible.

4gb The ipod is cool but the only thing that's sucks is that u need headphones that can turn the volume up on it because u can't on the ipod it self.

This product comes with three connectors. The first is a USB connector: Using it is not required, but provides charging capabilities to your iPod. The second is the iPod connector: This plugs into the bottom of the iPod and allows for Line Out quality sound. This is required if you want sound from your iPod device. The third cord is an AUX out cord (sorry don't have the length off the top of my head). This must be plugged into something for the sound to be produced. So, short answer: No, an AUX jack is NOT required. Long answer: Unless you just want to charge your iPod, you will need some sound input port on your radio/stereo/speakers ect. What kind of device are you trying to use this with?

Not sure about the iPod shuffle but I have used it with my iphone 4 and iphone 5 and it works great. It comes with two cords: one is a charger and the other is the cord to play the music in the car. I think they are universal. And yes, it plugs into the earphone outlet of both of my iPhones. Hope this helps!

My iPad Air (128GB not 64GB) came with earbuds, a lightning to USB connector and wall charger adapter, but i ordered it directly from Apple not from Amazon. That could be the difference and the reason why everybody who has responded to this question has not received earbuds. I have ordered all of my iPads directly from Apple and they always come with what i mentioned above (and it arrives via UPS in 2 days! - free shipping).
