How to Shuffle the Music?

You can use the iPod’s Shuffle feature to have songs play in a random order. To shuffle music, use the following steps:

1. Choose Main menu, Settings. You’ll see the Settings menu.
2. Highlight the Shuffle command.
3. If you want the songs within a selected browse category or playlist to play in a random order, press the Select button once. The Shuffle setting will become Songs. This causes the iPod to shuffle the songs within a music source when you play it.
4. If you want the iPod to select random albums when you select a browse category or playlist, press the Select button twice. The Shuffle setting will become Albums. This causes the iPod to select an album randomly, play all the songs on the album, choose another album randomly, and repeat this pattern until you turn Shuffle off again.
5. Select the music you want to play in a randomized fashion and play it. On the Now Playing screen, you’ll see the Shuffle indicator to remind you that you are in Shuffle mode.
6. To disable the Shuffle feature, press the Select button until you see Off next to the Shuffle setting. Your music will again play in a linear fashion.
