Ipod Nano

2012 RT-S

Today I had some music folders added to my Ipod. I have never had an Ipod before so it's all new to me. I will say I don't really know too much about ipods. Any way I plug it into my Spyder and it works. However it appears I can only change from one folder to another folder.

My questions are:

1/ Can I change from track to track within the same folder?

2/ can I have the ipod randomly play all of the folders mixed up?

REVISED BECAUSE I OBVIOUSLY HAD AN OLDER NANO

1 - I switch individual songs from the multifunction control with an iPod Nano. Just hit the right arrow briefly to get the next song. Holding it will change playlists, unless you are in shuffle mode. The left arrow restarts the song that is playing, if in shuffle mode. I don't know what it does in regular mode.

2 - if you do not select a playlist. Just set the iPod to do a random shuffle (and be sure shake to shuffle is off). Go to albums or artists, then play. A portion of the entire library should shuffle randomly. If you have a lot of songs on the iPod, it won't shuffle them all...just keep shuffling the ones it previously selected. A reshuffle will get a new mix.

All this applied to the Nano Gen 5. Not sure if the Nano 7 works the same.

Turn on shuffle play on the iPod and it'll play that way through the system.

you can right click when you have it in itunes then create a new playlist and put the songs in there you want to hear, its under playlists that you can name it, when you go into music on the front then click on playlists and then scroll down to what song you want to start and click it, I also put it on shuffle setting so that its changes up the songs on your playlist.

IF you need a visual showing of it search youtube, once you do it, is easy to remember.

I have an ipod touch and I've not been able to get it to play random. I still need to create some playlists which may negate the need to shuffle. I never new I had so many songs that began with Big and Bluegrass.
