Ipod shuffle stuck on one song

my friends little girls ipod shuffle is stuck on one song. How do I fix it

I have the exact same problem.  I have a brand new 4th generation iPod Shuffle.  I subscribed to six  podcasts in iTunes and then sync'd.  The Shuffle will only play the first podcast.  If I hit the "next" button, it doesn't do anything.  If I let the podcast play to the end, it just restarts.  If I resync, it will remove the podcast I've listened to and then only play the next podcast.
As far as I know, there is no "repeat" function on the 4th generation Shuffle.  If there is, can you please provide the page number in the manual that explains how to shut it off?

  • Ipod Shuffle stuck on same song

    Hey .. my Ipod is doing something strange recently. When I start it the first song is ALWAYS the same .. and it is set to shuffle. The sequence of songs then remains the same each time I turn it on and off. It has been doing this for a week and it is a bit annoying as I have to advance through many songs now to get to new ones.
    I did wipe out the entire play list and started fresh but the same problem exists.
    Any additional help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers!

    Hello,
    Have you tried resetting your iPod?: hold the "menu" + "select" (center) buttons together for about 7 seconds. Then the Apple logo will appear on the screen.
    I know you've "wiped out the entire play list and started fresh", but have you tried restoring your iPod? See this link about it:
    Restore iPod
    Restoring shuold take about 5 minutes. This process will delete the music off your iPod, but will not affect your iTunes library. Restoring isn't just deleting songs, because it can definetely clear up glitches in your iPod.
    I hope this helps,

    If you go to the Now Playing screen, the Repeat control is the the arrowed racetrack icon on the left side right below the scrubber bar. Tap the icon to change. It is white when Repeat is off.

    Music is stuck on one song, how to get it to continue.

    The repeat setting can be found from the Nano's Now Playing screen.  While playing a track, swipe to the left to bring up additional controls including the repeat and shuffle settings.  See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for more assistance on the repeat setting.

  • My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

    My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

    I FINALLY GOT IT! after months of relentless synching/autofilling problems on my 4th generation i figured out the solution.
    this is what i did: plugged in ipod on off mode~>manually deleting my ipod's songs~>restored factory settings~>unchecked automatic synch~>made a new playlist with exactly the songs & order i wanted for my ipod (just dragged old playlists into the new one)~>then autofilled that new playlist into my ipod. came out like a charm! (before u autofill UNCHECK random add songs)
    my ipod always ended up autofilling/synching my customized playlists wrong or it would automatically do my music library (and that was way unorganized), so this worked.

  • Ipod shuffle stops playing the song after a few seconds

    My Ipod shuffle stops playing the song after a few seconds, i can skip to the next song but it happens again for every song..
    the thing is its random, sometimes 5secs or 10 secs or at the most a whole minute
    i have updated, restored, reinstalled an all that but i really dont want to send it back as im in afghanistan and would be weeks before i see it again an i use eveyday!! for running.. i thought maybe sweat had got inside it, its not the headphones i have already tried swapping them.
    please help out a soldier in need?

    mine is doing the same thing; I have updated it, and restored the factory settings, and it still isn't working. I use mine for running as well; I think it has something to do with the sweat. Hopefully someone posts with a fix.

  • Ipod Shuffle stuck on same first song - and remainder in same order

    Hi .. back again .. well I tried reseting my Ipod shuffle back to the factory settings just a bit ago and still no joy; after turning it on and off again I go back to the same first song. BUT this time (after the reset) it is a different one from before as I had to reload the music in it.
    Thoughts??

  • Any hope for this iPod Shuffle stuck in DFU Mode?

    I received a 2nd Gen iPod Shuffle that was in dire straits. The owner complained that they couldn't access it at all, for anything.
    Plugging it in and looking at the System Profiler, the device showed up as a "USB DFU Device". Googling this issue, I found that Shuffles in this condition can be repaired using the iPod Reset Utility.
    I downloaded the utility, installed it and ran it, and clicked the "Reset" button to reset the Shuffle to factory settings. At the part for "Waiting for the iPod to restart - do not disconnect", the utility freezes. NO spinning beach ball or anything, just stuck. CPU usage for the "iPod Reset Utility" in Activity Monitor stays at 0.0%.
    After about a minute or so of watching this frozen program, a pop up window appears with the following error:
    "Error
    An error occurred resetting iPod."
    Googling this error message yields one forum post in another language without any follow-up. This error message is really vague and I have no idea why it's doing this.
    I do not have much hope for this Shuffle, but I'm curious if anyone knows of anything else I can do to bring this Shuffle back to life.

    ok got it fixed it needed to be shut down when i plugged into the computer for the itunes to recognize it my ipod kept on restarting as soon as it shut down thank you for the help

  • Ipod shuffle will not sync songs Error -50

    Hello i recently got a new ipod shuffle last week and now it wont sync with my songs. it only syncs one song out of the album. im using windows Xp
    HELP?!?!?!

    One song out of the album? Are you only syncing a single album to the iPod?
    How is your iPod configured to sync? In other words, is it set to sync you entire library? Are you syncing specific playlists? Specific artists or albums? Are you auto-syncing or manually managing your iPod?

  • My iPod is stuck on a song. Is there a way to fix it?

    Okay, so my iPod touch is stuck on a song. I can go to other songs, but as soon as a song I've selected(that's not the stuck one) finishes the whole music app shuts down and when I go back into it, it's back to the stuck song. Is there a way to fix it at all?

    Yes. Restoring erases the iPod.

    You may have to do the following
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch Download error - One song of album didn't download

    I have two more songs also stuck in download limbo... but I recently downloaded the Great Gatsby deluxe album and all but one song downloaded.  I've tried restarting the iPod and the "tap to retry" and it still won't work.
    Any suggestions on how to get this song and the other two to fully download?
    Thanks so much!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Download on computer
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • I was down loading music from my list of songs from my computer, the playlist on my iPod shows the title of the song, but there is no music, and the iPod shuffles to the next song

    I down loaded songs from my playlist off my computer to my iPod, the playlist on my iPod shows the title of the song, but no music plays and my iPod shuffles to the next available song. I down loaded about 300 songs at once, was that to much at one time ? How do I get those songs on my iPod without duplicating song titles on the playlist? Plus I have a couple of song duplications on the playlist, can't figure out how to remove them.

    If iTunes purchases, delete and redownload by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise delete and resync if they play OK in iTunes on the computer
