press the center select key a few times, until you see the track info with five dots underneath it. Roll your thumb back and forth over the wheel to add or remove Stars to give it a zero-five rating.

Deleting songs/files while in shuffle mode

hello.i have an 80gb ipod classic.i would like to know how to listen to songs in shuffle mode without playing the language files i have in shuffle mode.i know i can just un check them in my library but,there are thousands of them and would take quite awhile to uncheck them so,is there any way to uncheck them more quickly or any other way.i would appreciate any help.thanks

Hello joecomputer,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
One option is to enable the "Skip When Shuffling" option for each of these tracks in iTunes from under the Options tab of the *Get Info* window. Just highlight every track in your iTunes library by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking each track you wish to edit. When you have all of them selected, right->click on any one of them and choose *Get Info* from the pop up menu.
Or if the tracks are in sequence, simply click the first track in the sequence to highlight it, and then hold down the Shift key and click the last one in the sequence to highlight the first and last track and everything in between.
Then sync the updated changes to your iPod once they have been made. This option will tell your iPod to skip these tracks when you have it in Shuffle.

Deselecting albums or songs from participating in shuffle mode

I would like the ability to deselect certain albums or songs from participating in shuffle mode. I currently don't see a way to do that. How do you contact Apple with this type of a suggestion for a future release of iPod software?

There is no control provided and no way to do that.
Feedback links are reached by following the "Contact us" links you see at the bottom of most of the pages at the Apple site. Following down the various trees would eventually have brought you to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html

Songs are playing on shuffle mode when they are not supposed to

I am using the latest version for Windows 10 and songs are playing on shuffle mode on their own. As a matter of fact, there is a song playing now that isn't even on the playlist that I am listening to

Was there some earlier version that you found worked better?-- maybe version 0.8.x-- or version 0.9.x?
* Some earlier versions may have been easier to "debug" and force to work right for you? What has been your experience?

While in shuffle mode, a female voice suddenly cuts into a song. How do I stop this?

The last two times I've used my nano (ipod touch) during workouts, I've put it in shuffle mode. In the middle of the workout, a female voice cuts in announcing the song. Eventually, the voice starts reciting all of my playlists and randomly plays them, continuing to cut in and announce the titles. Does anyone know how to stop this from happening? Thanks.

It sounds like you are using the headset with the controls on the wire. If this is the case, your sweat is getting into the controls and causing the center button to act as if you are pressing and holding it. Try using a different headset that does not have buttons on the wire.

Weighted/Prioritize Songs in Playlists for Shuffle Mode

Either automatically or by allowing us to assign values to songs within playlists indicating how often we want to hear the particular song or how many times we want the song to be replayed before it is removed from the shuffle queue for a user specified amount of time.
It doesn't have to be that complicated. It would be nice to have "Play this song less often" and "Play this song more often" options.
I would really like to see what other users have to think about this.

Smart Shuffle- power hour feature (play each song for a desired amount of time from a certain start point of the song) Example: Play my Top 40 playlist starting 1 minute into the song, only play the song for 2 minutes before crossfading to the next song. Example 2: Using the lyrics that are already built into Spotify: Play a song 30 seconds before the first chorus starts, Play the song for 1 minute then skip to the next song and do the same thing. This is a powerful feature and could be used as a virtual DJ like for clubs and parties or at a BBQ. Some people don't want to listen to a full 5minute song and are just happy with hearing 2 minutes of the 5 minute song. - allow a toggle to shuffle a playlist but with priorities like: new songs added to the playlist, most played and etc. Some people have 500+ song playlists but when shuffling they would love to hear their newly added songs more often than a song they added 2 years ago. Sure they could make a new playlist with their new songs but what if they like hearing an old song once in a while to spice things up a bit.

Unable to add track to On-The-Go while in shuffle mode?

Whenever I am in shuffle mode and I add a track to the On-the-go playlist instead of adding the track that is playing it seems to always add whatever was the first track that I landed on when I entered shuffle mode. This seems like it must be a software issue.
Can anyone duplicate this?

Hi,

My Ipod Nano keeps repeating songs while in shuffle mode

As the thread title states.My settings are on for shuffle when I shake my ipod,but thre same song repeats itself unless I fast forward to the next song.Which then repeats itself.Any help would be very much appreciated..

Have you got the settings on iTunes to how you want? Often the iPod carries over these settings. If you are not aware of the second music menu when you are playing music, it has the shuffle icon, repeat icon and Genius icon. You have to tap whilst looking at an album cover, and then slide to the side to get to it. If that isnt the case, in settings, there is a section where it asks you what you would like to shuffle, songs, artists, albums or whatnot. You may want to switch that off.

Ipod nano 6th generation cuts off some songs while in the shuffle mode

When I'm listening to music in my playlist (shuffle mode) some of the same songs get cut off short. If I listen to the same song in the Artist folder, no problem. Anyone had this issue?

Is VoiceOver turned on? See here for more help on how to turn it off if need be.

I have an Ipod Touch and when I activate the shuffle mode it keeps replaying the same song. How do I fix this problem?

have an Ipod Touch and when I activate the shuffle mode it keeps replaying the same song. How do I fix this problem?

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.
Any luck there?
By the way, this is the iPod Shuffle forum. Since you have an iPod Touch, you should have posted this in the iPod Touch forum.

Playing concurrently recorded songs in shuffle mode.

Help! Is there a way to play songs concurrently that were recorded concurrently while the Ipod is in shuffle mode? Example: Van Halen's "Eruption" going into "You Really Got Me", or the Beatles-Abbey Road medley with "Sun King""Mean Mr. Mustard""Polythene Pam""She Came In Through The Bathroom Window"

Yes... One way I found is to fuse all the files of a medley into one file. Find the files in explorer. Open the files of the medley in notepad. What is seen in notepad makes no sense, but it is the content of the files. Just copy and paste, fitting the medley into one notepad. Then save. It saves beautifully av a mp3 file without any fuss. Import the file into iTunes, call it the medley name and you're done.

In shuffle mode, same song keeps repeating

Since updating to firmware 1.1.4, everytime I play the iPod in shuffle mode, it repeats the same song over and over. I have to forward to the next song. I don't remember this happening prior to updating. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!

While playing the song, turn your phone to portrait(that's upright) and tap the cover art(or whatever may be there). A new set of controls will appear below the existing controls(back, track info, album info). Of the new controls, make sure the control on the far left is not blue. If it is, tap until it goes white. That 'loop' represents track repeat.

My iPod touch is stuck on one song in my play list when in the shuffle mode. How do I fix this to shuffle through all the songs in that playlist?

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.
