Setting iPod nano to Shuffle Songs

You can set iPod nano to play songs, albums, or your entire library in random order.

iPod nano begins playing songs from your entire music library in random order, skipping audiobooks and podcasts.

To set iPod nano to always shuffle songs or albums:

1Choose Settings from the iPod nano main menu.

2Set Shuffle to either Songs or Albums.

When you set iPod nano to shuffle songs by choosing Settings > Shuffle, iPod nano shuffles songs within the list (for example, album or playlist) you choose to play.

When you set iPod nano to shuffle albums, it plays all the songs on an album in order, and then randomly selects another album in the list and plays through it in order.

You can also set iPod nano to shuffle songs directly from the Now Playing screen by clicking the Center button until the shuffle slider appears, and then using the Click Wheel to set iPod nano to shuffle songs or albums.

To shuffle songs while a song is playing or paused:

mShake iPod nano from side to side. A new song starts to play.

Shaking to shuffle doesn’t change your shuffle settings, whether you set them by choosing Settings > Shuffle or by using the shuffle slider.
