Can the Nano shuffle within one playlist only?

I have 4 playlists set-up on my Nano. One for the Gym. One for easy listening. One for Jazz and one for Christmas. I would like to be able to choose one of those playlists and have the Nano shuffle within that playlist only.
When I'm in the gym I don't Christmas music or easy listen to pop up. Unfortunately, when I select shuffle it shuffles all the songs on my Nano.
Is there a way to shuffle within only the playlist I've selected? Thanks.

That does not work for me.
You need to select the playlist and press Play.
Do not select Shuffle songs from the main menu.

  • How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic? Is this possible?

    You can set any song to Skip when shuffling.
    In your iTunes Library, highlight the song and right-click/Get Info. On the Options tab is the Skip when shuffling box. Select that and then Sync the iPod with your Library.

  • Nano - Shuffle within Playlist?

    I've had my Nano for a couple of days now and absolutely love it, anyway I do have one question I'm sure someone will be able to answer...
    Is it possible to shuffle songs within a certain playlist?
    I know you can shuffle by song or album which is fine but ideally I'd want to have say a playlist dedicated to easy listening/for music for the gym or whatever and be able to randomise the songs within that playlist only.
    It doesn't look possible at the moment but I'd thought I'd post just incase anyone knows otherwise!
    Cheers

    Hi Mitzi,
    To shuffle within a playlist, try the following:
    - In 'Settings', select 'Shuffle' and you'll see that you can set it to 'Off', 'Songs' and 'Albums'
    - Change Shuffle to 'Songs'
    - Go to any playlist and select a song
    - When the song is playing, you will see the shuffle icon above the song name
    - The nano will stay in that playlist and shuffle the songs
    Have fun! (I sure am!)
    Regards,
    David

  • Shake to shuffle within a playlist?

    Hey i am wondering if anybody knows if it it possible to use the shake feature to shuffle to a different song in the current play list I am playing instead of the entire library of music on my Ipod?
    Thanks for the help!

    Well, I'm pretty sure you can't Shake to shuffle within a playlist, but you can go to settings, then click shuffle (until it says: Shuffle Songs) then you play the first song in your playlist and it shuffles the rest of your songs. Sorry if thats not what your looking for. Hope it helps if it is though.

  • Can i transfer songs from one playlist to another on my ipod on my iphone4?

    I am wondering if I can transfer a song from one playlist to another on the ipod on my iphone4. If so how do i do it?

    I have home sharing turned on but can't figure out how to save the songs to the new computer.
    First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document. If material on the original PC was bought from the iTunes Store, I'd use the AppleID you used for the purchases to set up the Home Share on both PCs.
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
    Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
    Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
    If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.
    If there's a lot of stuff in your original PC's library, the transfer may take some time.

    I have set up iTunes Match on only 3 devices (my Windows 7 desktop and 2 iPhones) and am now trying to authorise my new Windows 8 (Toshiba) laptop but I keep failing to authorise the laptop using my one-and-only Apple ID. Does anyone have advice to solve this problem?!

    Hi all.  I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • Is there a good waterproof casing for the nano shuffle iPod?

    Do anyone know of a good waterproof casing and earphones for the iPod nano shuffle that one could go swimming with?

    This forum category is for the iPod shuffle.  There is also the iPod nano.  There is no "iPod nano shuffle."
    There is a company that modifies iPod shuffles to be waterproof (not a case)

  • Can the nano be set to playback in mono mode

    My wife is deaf in one ear and there for cannot hear in stereo mode. Can the Nano be set to playback in mono mode. I have tried to modify a set of earphones for her, but the results are less than desirable.
    Thanks

    I'm deaf in one ear too, and what I did was create the files in mono. I use the 320AAC format, which in mono, shows up as 160AAC and saves 1/2 the space on the hard drive or memory chip. SInce you already have stereo files, it's a simple matter to convert them all to mono, using iTunes. Go to the preferences and set the ripping to a mono-type format, choose all the songs in the library, and then convert them all. It might take hours for a large library, but it works fine.
    I tried converter plugs but they were bulky and there's no simple way to solder the wires together in the tiny leads that go to the headphones that I use, so making mono files was my best option.

  • How many decibels can the iPod Shuffle (4th generation) go up to?

    Hi! How many decibels can the iPod Shuffle (4th generation) go up to?

    Hi pce55,
    If you have questions about iPods and sound or decibel output, you may find the following pages helpful:
    Apple - Sound and Hearing
    Q. How can I set the Volume Limit on my iPod to a specific decibel level?
    A. The Volume Limit setting lets you change the maximum output of your iPod’s headphone jack. The actual sound pressure level that you experience depends on several factors: the music you’re listening to, how it was recorded and encoded, the type of earbuds or headphones you use, and their placement in your ears.

  • HT201678 How can the safe recommended operating temperature be only up to 95F when it is designed to fit into a pocket next to the body and the body can be at 98.6F or higher?

    How can the safe recommended operating temperature be only up to 95F when it is designed to fit into a pocket next to the body and the body can be at 98.6F or higher?

    98.6F is the approximate average internal temperature of the human body. It is not the external temperature. Do not insert your phone into any bodily orifice or carry it for long periods of time in your armpit and you'll be fine.

  • How do i get a nano 6G to shuffle within a playlist for a nike+ run?

    hi,
    does anyone know what i need to do to get my nano 6G to shuffle songs within a playlist during a nike+ run?
    the shuffle seems to work if i just play the playlist (if i tap on the shuffle at the top of the list). so what is the trick to doing that within a nike+ workout?
    never had this problem with my 2nd gen or 4th gen nanos
    from searching this forum, it seems to be a known problem, but i cant find any solutions.
    help!
    thanks in advance
    OzinFrance

    I too would like to know the answer to this!
    I have a lot of music on my nano, and only want to play a certain selection when working out, and I would like this music to shuffle while using nike+, not play in alphabetical order.
    Would be great to get a solution for this! Thanks!

  • Can you shuffle within a playlist?

    Hi
    I have an ipod nano (8gig) and itunes 7.x
    I want to be able to shuffle songs within a playlist on my ipod. Is this possible please? If so, how?
    Do I need to upgrade to itunes 8?

    No response here. After some googling I've found it is possible although the apple menus are very unintuitive

  • Shuffling within a playlist

    Can you shuffle a single playlist within a group of playlists on the nano? For example, I have three unique playlists and I would like to have one shuffled while I listen to it without having the other two playlists shuffled in.

    Todd,
    If you go to SETTINGS > SHUFFLE and set it to SONGS, any playlist, album, whatever you play afterwards will play as shuffled. Is that what you're asking?

  • Shuffle within a Playlist?

    So when you set the control to shuffle, will it shuffle within the playlist selected, or just shuffle everything on the unit like the old shuffles do? As soon as someone gets one, or if an Apple moderator is monitoring this, let us know.
    Thanks

    Just watched part of the +Guided Tour+ again, because I'm now curious about the answer myself now.
    At the part that explains how playlist selection works, the first playlist read by VoiceOver is the current playlist. The second playlist read by VoiceOver is "all music," which I assume means everything on the shuffle and not a playlist called +all music+. Then it reads off all the other playlists.
    So the answer seems to be YES, to you original question. You can shuffle within any one playlist or shuffle with all of the music on the shuffle.
