Back in December, I tweeted about finally figuring out how to shuffle a playlist on my iPod. This was especially important for my Christmas playlist. I was tired of having to listen to all my Christmas music in the same order over and over again.
When I discovered this by chance, I figured I was the only poor sap left in the universe who didn't know how to do it. However, two friends asked me how I did it, so I thought I'd go ahead and share it here for the world.
I have a 160GB iPod Classic that was purchased in December 2007. I am assuming this will work with most iPods of the same generation or later. Now, without further ado...
How To Shuffle A Playlist on Your iPod
- Go to Menu > Music > Playlists > (Your Playlist)
- Start playing the first song (or whichever one in the playlist you feel like listening to first).
- Click the center button 3 times. You should get a little "Shuffle" menu that says "Off | Songs | Albums."
- Use the clickwheel to scroll over to Songs.
- Click the center button again. After the current song finishes playing (or if you click the >> button), it'll shuffle!
Happy shuffling!
