Calling all iPod Owners
 
Okay,
Anyone got any useful hints and tips or software that can improve your iPod? I personally would like to know if its possible to shuffle a playlist as opposed to the whole inventory of songs on an iPod.

Anyone any ideas / suggestions?

It is possible. Check out Settings and Shuffle. It give you the option to shuffle artist or album when you select them.

I think this was a new feature in the latest software update.

Actually - hunted for it on the Apple website - found this (eventually)

Quote:
You can set iPod to repeat a song over and over, or to repeat a sequence of songs.

You can also set it to shuffle (play songs or albums in random order).

iPod repeats or shuffles songs within an album or playlist. If no album or playlist is selected, it uses your whole library of music. If you set iPod to shuffle albums, it plays the songs on each album in order, but plays the albums in random order.

To set iPod to repeat songs, select Settings in the main menu, then select Repeat. To set it to repeat just one song, press the Select button again.

To set iPod to shuffle songs, select Settings in the main menu, then set Shuffle to Songs or Albums. When set to shuffle, iPod won't repeat a song until it has played through the entire album, playlist, or library. To shuffle a playlist, the setting must be set to Shuffle Songs (not Albums).
Anyone else got some tips?

EDIT: Actually heres another question - when using 3rd party earphones do you find that your iPod sometimes goes into pause even when hold is on?

Turn the backlight off - if you need a back light you can hold the menu key for a few seconds and it comes on.

Saves the battery.
