HT1905 I want to shuffle all my songs

I am a new user of ipod and have previousley used an MP3 player which I was able to shuffle all my music. I would like to do the same on my new ipod, I have put shuffle on from settings but it does not shuffle the whole collection ! Can I rectify this? Ian

While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
The shuffle icon looks like to arrows crossing each other.
Any luck there?

  • When I want to randomly play (shuffle) all my songs, it seems that the same songs are being played. I've got over 13,000 songs loaded - it seems to me that I shouldn't be getting any repeats.

    When I want to randomly play (shuffle) all my songs, it seems that the same songs are being played. I've got over 13,000 songs loaded - it seems to me that I shouldn't be getting any repeats. I unrated all the songs, thinking this might affect how often a song gets picked to play. Any suggestions? Thanks!

  • HT204406 i want to download all the songs from itunes match back to my pc.  there are well over 2000 songs. instead of downloading one by one, is there a way to download all of them while I sleap?

    I want to download all the songs from iTunes Match back to my PC (iTunes).  Instead of downloading one by one, can I have all the songs downloaded back to my iTunes by one shot (while I sleap)?

    I just found the answer by myself.  Instead of clicking Cloud icon one by one, highlight all the songs in Cloud (after sorting by Cloud status) and riight click, download.  Now I am getting all the songs back to my local machine.  I will sync my iOS devices tomorrow and just GET RID OF iTUNES MATCH.  To me, it was a disaster.  Worse than their map app.

    Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.

  • I connected my new iphone 4 to itunes but now it wont recognise my old 3gs. My name doesnt appear on the left. i want to transfer all my songs to my new one but cant sync now. can anyone help

    i connected my new iphone 4 to itunes before backing up my old one but now it wont recognise my old 3gs. My name doesnt appear on the left. i want to transfer all my songs to my new one but cant sync now. can anyone help

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • My PC will not recognize my ipod nano. I had to reformat my PC. I dont want to lose all my songs

    Hello Jeanne
    If you are having issues with your iPod not showing up on your computer then check out the article below. What you need to figure out is if it does not show up at all or if it is just iTunes.

  • I have an ipod 2nd gen that was synced to a computer that i no longer have access to..now when i plug it in to my current computer itunes wants to delete all my songs!!!!!

    I have a ipod 2nd gen that was synced to a computer that i no longer have access to...now when i plug it in to my new computer it shows the ipod but wants to erase all my music on the ipod in order to use itunes!!!

    I think that's the way it's supposed to work. When you connect to a computer that has iTunes, but is different from the computer you are normally synced to, you are asked if you want to sync to the current computer. If you say yes, it will replace the content of your iPod with what is designated to sync in the iTunes. If you say no, it will leave your content alone, but you won't be able to load any new songs, but you can still use it in disk mode as a storage device.
    The exception is that you can transfer your iTunes store purchases to the new computer from the iPod, but I haven't done that myself. I'm not sure, but I don't think you can transfer non-store tracks, like those you burn from your own CDs. You have to copy those manually and then sync them onto the iPod.
    Anyway, that's how it works with a 6th gen and the latest iTunes. Not sure if there is a limitation with 2nd gen.

  • New computer/want to delete all ipod songs

    Hello Nicole,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Restore the iPod. This will erase all the contents from your iPod and set it back to its original default settings.

  • Don't want to locate all 4K songs one by one

    My computer had to have the hard drive replaced. I just redownloaded itunes and it updated my library based on my saved files, however most of the files have the exclamation point next to them meaning I need to locate where the file is saved. I'd prefer not to have to do this more than 4000 times. Is there another way to do this besides one at a time manually?

    Put all your songs in the same folder on your hard drive, then in Edit > Preferences > Advanced, choose iTunes to populate the library from that folder.
    You may want to delete the songs in iTunes beforehand, as these "empty" songs will still be there, doubling up everything.
    +"To delete everything in the library, either select everything by clicking on any item in the Music listing and choosing Select All under the Edit menu, and then pressing the Delete key (then repeat for Movies, TV Shows, etc), or just trash the iTunes library.itl and iTunes.xml files from the iTunes folder."+ - Dave Sawyer
    (Hope Dave doesn't mind me using the same advice he told me)

  • I want to delete all the songs with broken links at once

    I lost a file with a lot of songs on it and it can't be retrieved.  How can I delete all the song titles with broken links at once without having to delete 500 songs one at a time?

    One way to identify the broken links in your library is to create this set of playlists:
    Lost & Found playlists
    Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist. They can be deleted with CTRL+A then SHIFT+DELETE.
    Or use iTunes Folder Watch and enable its option to check for dead tracks on startup.
    If you have any Apple devices that could hold the lost media see this user tip.
    Finally, while I'm handing out advice, see this backup tip to avoid this problem again.

  • I want to consolidate all my songs bought under 2-3 different user ids and passwords into one so I can move them into folders and organize my music.  How?   and I do not have any of the old id's or passwords.

    I have an older iPod one of the first touch screens.  I bought music under more than one apple id and password.  I got a Macbook last October and I just upgraded my old 3G phone to the new iPhone 5 (16 GB).  All my music is on these devices but I cannot organize it. I tried to move songs into folders on my laptop but they would not go into the folder.  I clicked on them and moved them by holding down the mouse.  I think it is because they are from different accounts.  Or am I moving them incorrectly?  I have already created most of the folders like for Christmas music and workout.  I just want to be able to manage all this.
    I am technologically challenged so if you explain something you cannot skip a step.  I am not even sure I picked the correct operating system below.

  • I want to delete all the songs that are not in my playlists without having to delete them separately

    I have like 1500 songs and only want like 700 of them

    You can select some files in iTunes then right click consolidate.
    Then delete the original files not in the iTunes media folder.
    This way you don't have to do it all at once.
    Note that when you add files to iTunes, they are copied into the iTunes media folder so anything you added in the past is already in the iTunes media folder. Consolidating wont do anything to those. Likely all you need to do is delete the original.
