Ipod will not shuffle complete playlist

Since the last software update, my 5th gen ipod will no longer play my complete playlist in shuffle mode. I have done a hard reboot, did a restore and put the all the music back on the ipod and still can't get it to shuffle the complete list. Any suggestions?????

Thank you, It worked. I forgot to change back to allow that as the playlist I was trying to shuffle was my Christmas Music....

  • Ipod will not sync because playlist was deleted

    We cannot sync ipod because playlist was deleted. We also cannot get past the registation page when ipod is selected in itunes. I understand Iam supose to chang the playlist for syncing but since I cannot get past the registration page I can't do this step. I am very frustrated and trying to get this working for my child. Thanks

    *We also cannot get past the registation page when ipod is selected in itunes.*
    Have you tried choosing "never register" next time you are asked. Never register shows up after the second or third time you connect if you have chosen "Register Later" previously.
    *We cannot sync ipod because playlist was deleted*
    You get this problem when the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' is being used to sync your iPod. If the playlist selected is deleted from iTunes the iPod no longer has a location to sync from and you get an error. (Syncing selected playlists by the way is a useful setting to use when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library). However you can make a new one or make use of an existing one.
    Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -My iPod for example (the dash will position it at the top of the playlists in Sources). You can make it a smart playlist that picks the songs for you or just a normal one and drag whatever content you want to have into the playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano. Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    Syncing Music to iPod
    To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
    Uncheck "Match the following rule"
    Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
    When you want to change the selection in the smart playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection. When you want to change the normal playlist just delete out what you don't want and drag in a new selection.

  • ITunes and iPod will not shuffle

    I just recently purchased a MacBook Pro, and I finished the long tedious transfer of my 12 gb music library. I connected my iPod, reformatted it to Mac format, and synced my library. However, I just noticed something. Whenever I play a song on iTunes OR my iPod Video (5G 30GB) and the shuffle setting is on, only one song is played before quitting to the main menu or simply stopping. I cannot continuously play an album on shuffle. It plays one song and stops. Also, on the iPod, the "Shuffle Songs" option on the main screen does not work. If I set the options to "Shuffle: none", start a playlist, and then switch settings to "Shuffle: songs" everything works as I want it to. What's the deal?

    Make sure your songs are not set to Skip When Shuffling in the Get Info window.

  • My iPod touch will not shuffle or move on to the next song on an album/ playlist. Is there anything I can do. It has had very little use even though I've had it for 2years.

    Can anyone help with an iPod touch that will not shuffle or move on to the next song on an album/playlist?

    After you dry the iPod:

    Connect the iPod to a charging source overnight and then try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Classic 120 will not shuffle songs

    I  have a classic that has decided it will not shuffle through a play lis automatically and manually?
    Any thoughts are welcome
    alan

    What happens when you try? If you start a song playing, what happens when the first one ends?
    How did you turn on the shuffle feature?
    Did you set it to shuffle songs or albums?
    Are the songs in the Playlist set to Skip when shuffling?
    What do you mean it will not shuffle through a play lis automatically and manually ? What is automatic shuffle; what is manual shuffle?

  • 3rd gen iPod will not complete the RESTORE process with new Hard Drive

    I have an 3rd gen iPod and I have replaced the hard drive with a newer MK2006GAL. The drive formats fine with a USB cable, formating Mac OS Extended Journaled. It will not complete a "restore" when connected via FireWire in iTunes or with any ipod updater utility. this happens on any mac (we have several). It will not even see the iPod updater when connected via USB and it says MUST CONNECT WITH A FIREWIRE CABLE. It will not format with Disk Utility when connected with the Apple FireWire cable only USB. This is the second new hard drive I have tried. I thought the first "replacement drive" was bad. Turns out it must be something else. Does this sound like a bad battery or motherboard or bad FireWire cable to you? The connectors look fine (under magnification). other problems, while this iPod will not Restore properly, it also will not turn off.
    Would like to know if anyone else has seen this trouble.
    thanks.

  • Itunes will not download complete song on ipod

    I have tried with several different ipods and it will not download complete songs. Tried putting them on one at a time or whole sections. I did all the upgrades except the safari. Please help... I have a lot of songs and very disappointed kids too!

    You are in the dreaded "Authorization Loop". Here are the usual fixes - try them in this order, syncing your iPod after each one.
    1. Deauthorize the PC for both accounts until it is showing zero authorizations on that PC for both accounts. Then reauthorize the PC again fr both accounts.
    2. Delete the SC Info folder (not just the file) as mentioned in this article

    3. Download a free single of the week and play a few seconds of it.

  • TS3297 I downloaded songs that now will not play completely on my ipod

    I downloaded songs that now will not play completely on my touch.  There were no error messages, and I see them fine on my touch.  They get to a certain point in the song and jump to the next song.

    Do they play ok on your computer's iTunes ? If they do then try deleting them from your iPod and then re-sync them back to it.
    If they also don't play on your computer's iTunes, then depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • Ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song

    ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song... i cant see the the volume display to adjust it eiether. Everyting shows up in the menus just not on the now playing screen.... any suggestions?

    Try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7
