Ipod question

[crickit]

Is there a random functionality for ipod?

Also.. I have so many albums and songs on my ipod and I hit down 30 times to get to Snoop and then drill into album and then use 'back' button and then i am back at top of list ... anyone know of a workaround?

The answer is yes and no. There are many threads posted here that talk about this so I do not think it would be beneficial to start a new thread on this. Use the search function and I am sure you will find your answers. The scrolling function is a pain. Period. Some have mitigated it by reordering the folders and, in the case of mp3 thumb drives, have even renamed the music files themselves. Playlists are another means of reducing the scroll time. There is a difference between the tech package and non-tech package as well. Hope you find a solution that works for you.

Explore the use of Playlists. Then create one called "1 Rap" and "2 Techno" etc, etc, add your favorite songs for each genre you like and just switch between a dozen or so playlists instead of artists and albums. Much quicker and less driver involvement in music selections.l\

If you have a non-tech model; unplug the ipod from the cable, scroll to the song or artits you want, hit play, then plug it back in.

This was a question of mine and I had to wait until I had a Genesis to try it. I plugged in my iPod Classic and iPhone and this is what I found....

If you want to shuffle songs on your iPod's playlist, press the random button on the radio. For non-tech packages, its the 2 button I believe - it also has the letters RNDM on it.

Also, the Folder button will pause the music.
