So here are the five things *I* like best about it:It's small and lightweight and goes right into my shirt pocket.It's inexpensive so if i lose or break it or if it is stolen no big deal.I can use the controls without looking at it.It holds just the right amount of music.Sand doesn't mess it up at the beach.The charge lasts a long time.Okay, so that's six.Anyway, I've had my shuffle for 2 1/2 years and I still love it. What is there to say about the iPod shuffle that hasn't already been said in the other 300+ reviews.
I like mine but I wish it was a little bigger on storage I would recomend this for like 10-15yr old kids but over all I think its nice but needs more space.
(Must remove the covering, however, when charging so the ipod shuffle can fit into the docking station)Overall, great gift or buy for anyone who is not into electronics but loves their music, as long as someone can set it up for them if they dont know how. Will convert from any other formats that it reconizes Can download songs from the itunes store as well ($0.99 per song) Itunes gift cards are sold just about anywhere they sell ipods ($15+) (No use of credit/debit cards online)240 song capacity is a lot for changing out different songs.(Not enough, get the 2GB ipod shuffle)4 hours to charge but 12 hours of continuous play (just like it is supposed to)There are protective coverings(the aluminum is the best) out there for this device at Radio Shack for people like my fiance who has the tendency to break things she owns. Key points FYI:Must download itunes media player to sync with the ipod shuffle (Free, website given) Can rip songs from CD's Can add previous music you already own in mp3 and WMA formats.
My mom always wanted one for around the house and outside gardening. They both are not into electronics and like how simple it is to use. I had bought these two ipod shuffles for my fiance and my mom.
However, they both needed help getting their favorite songs on them. The best smallest player out there giving the advantage for anyone who can take it anywhere comfortably. She love it when she got it for her birthday.
My fiance love it when she got it for christmas because she now can have her favorite music with her all the time.
It holds plenty of music and the color selection was great. They were very vague. I bought this for my daughter's 10th birthday. The only downfall was the instructions. The earphones are the type that are placed in the ear so that was a bit of a discomfort for her at first, but she has gotten used to them. she loves it. It is easy to use and perfect for her.
Every time I want to add a song, sync it or even charge it on the base, I have to "restore" the IPOD (as my computer will not recognize the IPOD without ITunes open - and ITunes will not recognize it to charge it without restoring). It's definitely not worth the hassle and there is little support if your computer crashes. It worked fine with no problems - until my hard drive crashed in June.
All I could do was restore the IPOD and create another authorized account, which only half worked. I'm very disappointed in a product that is supposed to be so excellent. I've spent over four hours tonight trying to load about 50 songs and only ten have gone on.
I purchased my IPOD Shuffle in May and loved it for the first month. I cannot disconnect the old drive as a user since it is no longer functioning. It's not worth the money when other systems out there will give you more for your money and are more flexible when your system has an issue.
Since then, I have had nothing but nightmares with my IPOD. I've tried Apple's help information, but nothing seems to work and I was told it was not their problem since I did not deauthorize my old hard drive before it crashed (if only the hard drive had given me warning).
