Do 4th gen shuffle's play through car's aux port with male-to-male cable?
I have a 4th gen shuffle and male on both ends cable to plug into shuffle and aux port in car. I cannot, however, seem to get it to play any songs. I was able to play a first gen. nano through same aux port, but not the shuffle. Are shuffle's even able to play through car's aux.?
Thanks for the feedback JfromPtbo. I finally figured it out, and the solution was pretty simple. You have to turn the volume ALL the way up on the shuffle (not just a few clicks, but really hold down that volume-up bottom), while it's plugged into the aux port. Then, once you hear the songs, you can adjust the volume through the normal stereo volume controls. Sounds good for a $50 ipod and $5 cable.

My 4th gen shuffle only plays the first category of podcast and will not go to the next category, it will only repeat. Example:it will play all pod casts of this american life(first on the list) and not got to the moth (second category on the list). It does not work like my old shuffle.
if you make a playlist and load the podcasts in the order you want to listen to them, it will work. In effect you are double syncing. I had the same problem and got it to work

How can I find an audiobook on my 4th gen shuffle? Can't find it even when I play in order. When I try to tick Sync audiobooks it asks if I want to continue to remove existing music befoer syncing and I don't want to do that. Can anyone help?
Did you already load the audiobook manually (by dragging it to the shuffle)? To confirm that the audiobook is on the shuffle...
Select the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar. If the sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
Click the small triangle to the left of the shuffle name (in the sidebar) to drop down its content list, indented below the shuffle. Click on Audiobooks there. To the right, your audiobook(s) should be listed.
NOTE: if you don't see Audiobooks on the content list, there are no audiobooks on the shuffle.
When you turn ON the shuffle, you are playing from the default All Songs list. Audiobooks (and podcasts) do not play from the All Songs list. You need to use VoiceOver to select the audiobook from the playlist menu. This document explains how to set up and use VoiceOver on your shuffle

My ipodmy ipod shuffle 4th gen does not play whole songs, only parts then goes on to next song
My recently bought ipod shuffle 4th gen does not play whole songs synced to it, only the beginning then goes on to the next song. What have I done wrong?
I changed the iPod to Disk mode and it just blinks orange while it is connected to the PC. It says that it is synched on the PC screen but I thought the blinking orange light means that it isn't. I took it back out of disk mode. The original problem still exists...when I turn it on, the green light stays lit for 5 seconds then there's no light at all....when I press play the lights alternate orange and green indicating no music is loaded which is wrong since it shows all my songs that are loaded when it is connected to my PC. What a mess.

Since connecting my new 5s my 4th gen shuffle is not recognised by itunes.
The device is not appearing in 'my computer' but is receiving power as it is charging.
I never had this issue with my 4s.
I have tried the troubleshooting with no success.
If anyone has any suggestions on what settings I need to change or what I need to do this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.Try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the computer.
Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.

4th Gen shuffle not recognized by Mac OS. What's wrong?
I've been through two 4gen shuffles within a week. Connected them to my NEW MacBook Pro, with up-to-date iTunes. Say's they're currupted. Restore won't work. Tried the connection on another Mac, same thing.
Just for the heck of it, I connected it to my work "Windows" machine and iTune for Window's recognizes it just fine. What's wrong?
This shuffle should just work on my Mac with no issues! Not happy, not happy at all.After a trip to the Apple and over two hours with three different Apple speciaists, not luck in resolving this issue. The 4th Gen shuffle is not recognized. The Apple Store confirms that the Shuffle is fine and works on their Macs in the store.
Steps taken so far...
Removed iTunes and re-installed twice, did not resolve the issue.
Removed Symantec Norton Security Suite.
Performed an Archive Install of Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard
Ran various disk utilities, still than same. The Apple Disk utilitiy continuely shows errors on the shuffle.
Tried the shuffle on my wifes new 27" iMac, the same thing happens on her Mac.
Multiple restores through iTunes, no luck. -
4th gen shuffle draining the battery
Is there any issues with a 4th gen shuffle draining the battery even when the switch is in the off position? The iPod charges fine, it just does not shut off and I have to plug in immediately after I use it or there is not a charge remaining.

I haven't heard of any such issues.
Work through the 5 R's of troubleshooting to make sure that it is not a software issue.

Does the 4th gen shuffle work with windows 8
I have a 4th gen shuffle and my laptop, windows 8, is not recognizing it. What can I do??
iTunes needs to be installed, to give Windows the necessary device drivers and services. You can get the latest iTunes installer here
https://www.apple.com/itunes/
Does the shuffle's light come on in any way? If it does, what does it do when you connect it to USB?
If the light does not come on, first make sure the docking cable plug is completely inserted into the shuffle's headphones jack, as shown in this document.

I just bought a 4th gen shuffle
I can't get iTunes to recognize my new iPod shuffle 4th gen when I plug it into the USB port in my Mac. It recognizes my iPhone 4 immediately. Any ideas what the issue might be?
I'm not using the same USB cord for the Shuffle as for my iPhone 4 because the shuffle doesn't have the same input jack as my iPhone4, my iPod Nano, my iPad or my Mac. Am I missing a cord or an input jack on the Shuffle?

Have a 4th gen shuffle, I cannot "sync" it.
Have a 4th gen shuffle, I cannot "sync" it. When I installed Itunes it never gave me the option to "sync" it or recognize my Ipod. I have spent hours on this, I have un installed, re installed, rebooted computer, changed ports, you name it and nothing. Please HELP.
Thank you..If you connected it to both your computer's USB port and a USB power adapter on a wall outlet, I think you've ruled out a problem with the power source. Since you at least get the red light, the USB docking cable is probably OK.
So, if it's not the USB port or the docking cable, the cause is likely to be on the shuffle. It may be the battery or a problem on the logic board. If it was just the battery, I think it would still appear in iTunes on the computer (or at least be recognized by the system).
(If this shuffle is less than one year from purchase date, it is under warranty.) -
I am having problems playing through car stereo using the cassette deck. Only getting audio out of right side. Have tried two Dyantec with same result. Ipod has sound on both sides through ear buds. Cassette deck is playing regular cassettes just fine. Trying to stay away from fm transmitters.
Do you have the option of an 'aux' in your car stereo? If so, you should only have to purchase an auxiliary cable and plug it into your IPod and 'aux' in the car. It will then play through the speakers. You can also do this with your home stereo if it has the 'aux' option.

Can I use the charger from my 2nd gen shuffle, to charge my 4th gen shuffle?

Ok, thanks! The one that comes with it (3.5mm/USB) is short, leaving it dangling from the charger, so I wasn't sure if that's my only option...
AppleStore will be happy to sell you a longer cable:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC003ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0OQ&mco=MTA4MjUwNDg
The Apple iPod shuffle USB Cable connects your iPod shuffle (3rd and 4th generation) to your computer's USB port for syncing and battery charging and to the Apple USB Power Adapter for convenient charging from a wall socket.
Two cables are included, both with a 3.5-mm jack on one end and a USB connector on the other. The shorter cable is the same length as the USB cable that comes with iPod shuffle. The longer cable is perfect for connecting iPod shuffle to the back of a desktop computer or to a power adapter plugged into a wall socket.
Compatible with iPod shuffle (3rd and 4th generation).
