I don't have any Apple products and for some reason can not use iTunes on my laptop. Can I download my playlists from my laptop to the Shuffle?

The only way to add music to the shuffle is via itunes, because there is no screen and thus no itunes app on the device. Sounds like you may have to upgrade your laptop to get the latest version of itunes, because itunes is available on Macs and windows computers.

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.

I use my old shuffle for listening to books. It's small and cheap so I just keep it in my bag for when I need a book. In fact I have started loading only the book onto it and then when I am done with the book I loan it to a friend, ipod and all.

No. Imagine that this laptop is similar to your browser. While you can download things onto it, the only things that you can 'run' are apps and the Chrome browser. You can put your music on it, depending on how many songs you have (or keep it on a usb stick or external hard drive). There are many solutions to this (Google play, iTunes is starting to have a similar cloud backup for music). While you can't run iTunes, you can still keep your i-devices up to date using various apps available for Chrome.

I had to download music non-apple software - Microsoft Media Player. I could not download music from iTunes, so it probably will not work. Not 100% sure. Sorry. Good luck. It does not shuffle and is not loud when you swim. It is good for water therapy or water jogging, when your head is above water.

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.

Music from my cloud downloads perfectly to the iPod shuffle. I haven't tried it with audio books.

Yes. You can play your songs in alphabetical order or select Shuffle and the player plays them in random order.

I don't know. I would ask iTunes support. They are really good about responding to questions.

Yes, you can use an iPod shuffle using a double-ended headphone cord, plugged into the Audio In port. The shuffle does not have the wide end to mount it on the front of the unit like a standard iPod nano or iPhone.

Your iTunes songs should be stored in a folder on your computer. Those files are aac and unfortunately cannoy be played on the hm-700. They can be easily converted to mp3 and then put on the device. I use foobar2000 to play and convert all of music files.

you just have to load indiviual songs on in the order you want. The shuffle is a very simple device: play/pause, volume, and skip/reverse

I use a program called isyncr to sync my music from iTunes. You can sync specific playlists.

no, you can't. Itunes only connects to ipods. You can use windows media player to sync with you fuze. another thing to keep in mind that if you got tracks with DRM from iTunes, they wont be able to trasfer to the Fuze unless you re-rip them to MP3 format.

I've never used iTunes. I primarily play music via my SamSung Note II with a couple players, including 2Player although now and then, I also use Media Player from my laptop and "play to" my speakers.

I haven't tried that feature. We are having a difficult time to get it to shuffle in a playlist so I would think if you assigned it all to the playlist it will play it. To be honest, this wasn't a good purchase...freezes up quite a bit when trying maneuver from folder to folder.
