Using a shuffle with a IHOME iH5 radio

Has any one tried to use the Shuffle with the IHOME iH5
iPOD Alarm Clock? Can you play sonds through the USB port of the shuffle or just through the headphone jack?

Through the jack alone... you'd need a computer to play your songs through USB...
sorry, haven't tried what you said...

Using 2G shuffle with speakers while simultaneously charging

I currently listen to my 40GB iPod photo at work through logitech mm50 speakers for 8-10 hours a day. I bought a 2G shuffle to use at work instead, because I've already dropped the big iPod from 30 feet up (I'm a carpenter...was working on a church bell tower...) and decided that my 400 dollar iPod was not worth risking at work any more.
I'm looking for a solution to using the shuffle with my speakers that will also charge the shuffle while in use. I know can plug the shuffle into the mm50 using the headphone jack to the line-in jack on the speakers, but then the shuffle is always running off the internal battery. That'll burn up the battery faster that I would like to.
I make of practice of using it plugged in with the big iPod, and once a week or so running off of batteries to keep the batteries excercised, and would like to do the same with the shuffle. I can see no way to do that. Does anyone know of any kind of adaptor that'll turn the usb cord from the shuffle dock into a full-blown dock connector? I saw that Altec Lansing had a cradle type of thing for using the 1G shuffle in their docking speaker sets. Ideally something like that for the 2G would be great.

Sorry, but no one has come forward with a docking adaptor that breaks out audio for the 2nd Gen Shuffle...
This used to work fine for the 1stGen Shuffle:

Can I use my shuffle with Windows and Mac?

My shuffle works great with my computer running windows, but doesn't mount on my Apple, or recognized by iTunes (on my G4).
Can I use the Shuffle on both computers?

Yes you can. The iPod Shuffle always uses FAT32 so it's compatible with both OSes out of the box. With a dual 800 I'm guessing you've got USB 1.1 ports. You're also running 10.4.2 so you should be fine. I've used my shuffle with a Windows PC running XP via USB 2.0 and my upgraded Sawtooth running 10.3.9 via USB 1.1 (both direct port and via the keyboard).
Note that there is no "manual" mode for the shuffle so iTunes won't show you what's on there unless you let it remove all the songs first.

Why don't you ask someone who has a 3rd gen nano? They usually hang out in the iPod nano 3rd gen forum.

Using iPod Shuffle with TWO computers

I have two laptops (one Powerbook and one iBook) and would like to use my iPod Shuffle with both computers, downloading music from the iTunes of each computer. Is that possible or will it always make me choose which iTunes I am linked to and delete all the music from the other one?

You can set your iPod shuffle up to mount as a disk on the desktop, and copy data files that can be transported from one computer to another. You aren't going to be able to use the shuffle to sync music from one iTunes account and another, however. It was only designed to work with one computer/one iTunes at a time.

I am trying to use my shuffle with a logitech meant for an ipod. It wont charge

I need an adapter to use a ipod shuffle on a logitech speaker system which was designed for an original ipod. Does anyone know where I CAN FIND ONE?. what is the model of the adapter?

We are starting from the beginning like its a new ipod starts out asking language, country,location services,choose a network,and when we get to "setup ipod touch " there are 3 options 1..setup as new ipod, 2.restore from ipod backup 3 restore from itunes backup and when we hit setup as new ipod and click next it comes up with sign in with apple id or create a free apple id we clicked create a free apple id....then comes up with bday,1st name last name, use your current email address, get a free icloud email address or change email address and THIS is where we have problems....if we hit change email address it means that sis's stuff goes under his name and moves all her stuff to this older ipod which the brother does not want. sorry this is so long but its the only way I knew to do it.

Using ipod shuffle with more than 1 computer

Some of my music library is on my work machine and some of it is on my home machine. This has never been an issue with my ipod classic. I plug it into either machine and it connects no problem.
Not so with my shuffle. After I loaded it up with songs on my home machine, I tried connecting it to my work machine and got an error message. What's up with that? Is there a way to get around it?
Many thanks.

Using new shuffle with exsisting iTunes for my iPod

I tried taking some songs from my iTunes that I use for my iPod. Well on iTunes the songs are there but it will not let me eject my shuffle and the songs don’t play on my shuffle.

How are you 'taking' songs from your iTunes? And is it yours as opposed to someone else's?
Which "it" is it that doesn't let you eject your Shuffle? If you mean iTunes, how is it preventing it?
Finally, what led you to think that they got transfered to your Shuffle in the first place?

Ipod mini and ihome clock radio

I've been searching this forum for info on problems using my iHome with my ipod mini, and others seem to be having the same problems, but are assuming it's a glitch with the mini, not the iHome.
I used my mini with my iHome for a few days with no problems. Suddenly, when I docked my mini, it showed nothing but the apple icon, and was frozen. I checked the connection, tried using the mini by itself, still frozen. I followed the mini instructions for resetting, and got it working again. Docked it in the iHome, played 5 seconds of a song, and it froze up again. Reset again, and mini is working fine, but this happens every time I try it in the iHome. Computer recognizes mini just fine, iTunes working ok, battery fine.
Anyone else found a problem with the iHome? I think I've explored all the obvious causes, but let me know if I'm missing something. I'm going to return the iHome and try again with another one, but I'm afraid I might damage my mini! Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Having the exact same problem. Tried the iPod in another iHome, and it does the same thing. Therefore, problem is in the iPod, not the iHome!

I created a playlist with 100 songs. I want those 100 songs played using the shuffle option. This no longer works in iTunes version 11.1.5.5 How can I get an entire playlist to paly one song after another by using the switch option?

You're welcome.
Going back to your original post:
5) Tried running Itunes in 'safe mode', running itunes as an administrator..nothing.
Was that iTunes' safe mode as opposed to Windows' safe mode? iTunes safe mode is invoked by holding down CTRL+SHIFT immediately after clicking the icon to launch iTunes and continuing to hold until this message pops up:
Click continue, then close iTunes and reopen. With luck iTunes now opens normally every time.

If I want to load my shuffle with albums, do I make each one a named playlist? How many playlists can be used?

If I want to load my shuffle with albums, do I make each album a "named playlist"?
If so, can I use any number of playlist I want, or is there a limit on playlist numbers?

If you want to be able to call up an album of your choosing at any time, then yes, the best option is to make a playlist for each album. I have not seen a limit, just remember that when choosing, you will be "scrolling" through them alphabetically, so the real limit is on your patience (you can use the buttons to move forward or backward more quickly).

Can I use a USB for 2nd generation shuffle with a 3rd generation shuffle

Can I use a USB for 2nd generation shuffle with a 3rd generation shuffle?
Seems to be a good fit, but my computer doesn't seem to recognise it.

By "3rd gen charger" are you referring to the USB cable with the
4 ring audio connector on the other end?
If so, the answer is again NO...

Can I use my iPod remote with my iHome?

I just bought an iPod remote, and I was assuming I'd be able to use it with my iHome. Is that true, or did I just waste $20?

The iPod remote is meant for the universal iPod dock, not the iHome.
There may be a way to get it to work, but, uh, I would have to say it might void the warranty on the iHome (if there is one).
