Attention iPod owners

Okay, I know that a bunch of you own iPods, so help me out here.

Now, don't kick me if I'm wrong, but...

If you go to settings, you can turn on/off the shuffle option for songs or albums. If you click on songs, it should shuffle the songs within your selected playlist if you choose to listen to music based on playlist.

It works on my mini.

Ah, interesting! I will definitely give this a try when the machine arrives.

And how do you choose to listen to music based on playlist? Is there some default that needs to be changed, or is it just a matter of clicking 'shuffle' while you're in the process of listening to a particular playlist?

You can select whether to listen to:

Songs
Albums
Genre
Podcasts
Playlists

Select playlists, choose yours, and start playing the songs. As long as you turned on shuffle songs, you will make the songs IN the selected playlist mixup.

Thank you! I will definitely give this a try when it shows up!

There's a 'playlist' menu. If the shuffle option is on and you select a playlist from the playlist menu, that playlist will play shuffled.
