Re: resetting ipod shuffle?
Are you using a USB hub? If so, you might try plugging your iPod directly into your PC. I'm no USB expert though. I think you might have more luck with this question on a list specifically for iTunes and the iPod.

The new talking Ipod shuffle
Apple Releases New iPod Shuffle With Speech Capabilities Nick Mediati, PC World Mar 11, 2009 12:40 pm Another Tuesday, another new Apple product. Following up last week's new desktop announcements, Apple today released a redesigned iPod Shuffle. Even smaller than the last one, the new iPod Shuffle has no playback controls on the player itself--instead, the playback controls are on the headphone wire. This change does beg the question: What happens if you lose the bundled headphones? Does this rule out using third-party headphones? The big new feature is the iPod Shuffle's inclusion of Apple's VoiceOver technology. VoiceOver on Mac OS X is Apple's built-in screen reader for the visually impaired. On the iPod Shuffle, VoiceOver will read you the current song's title and artist information with a touch of a button. The function was added to iTunes last fall. According to Apple, VoiceOver now makes it possible to switch between playlists on the iPod Shuffle. The iPod Shuffle is multi-lingual, and knows how to speak 14 languages, including Spanish, Japanese, Greek, and Dutch. This begs another question: What happens if you play a song tagged as explicit? Apple's press release makes no mention of what happens, but wouldn't it be amusing if it spoke a warning to you? Imagine: I'm afraid I can't play that, Dave. The new iPod Shuffle costs $79 and stores 4GB worth of music, or roughly 1000 songs. If you want one, you'll need WIndows XP SP3 or Windows Vista (or Mac OS X 10.4.11 or higher), and iTunes 8.

Cue/Review on Ipod Shuffle and other devices.
Can't speak for other Ipods but if you hold the track-forward track- back control down, you get cue/review respectively just the same as you would any other CD player. That's the annoying thing about Iriver and the Rockbox actually because that facility isn't available. Its also patchy on some DVD players with MP3 files as well, my Panasonic DVD player supports cue/review very nicely thanks and variable speed to boot whereas other DVD players I have here are a waste of time as far as this feature is concerned.

Ipod Shuffle and connecting to an audio system
Hi! Ok, I've read my Shuffle manual and it doesn't mention connecting to a Hi-Fi or audio system actually, it just mentions connecting the headphones to the headphones port so obviously it doesn't have a dedicated line-out but I can say that it works when I connect it to the music port on my Micro Hi-Fi here, the auxilary port of my Panasonic RXED50 portable CD Radio Cassette unit etc. I've also hooked it up to computer speakers without a problem so I think I can safely assume from all this that if you were to connect the unit to the line-in of an amp for instance, you'd get pretty good results though (as has b een mentioned) not quite as good as you would get if you had a dedicated line-out socket or port. Now having said all that, its possible that there may be an Ipod shuffle dock out there somewhere that gives the user a dedicated line- out socket. Thanks for raising this, most interesting.

Re: Ipod Shuffle and connecting to an audio system
Yes, I run my ipod shuffle through 2.1 speaker system with no problems and very good quality. ** Let a smile be your lantern of joy robert Doc Wright http://www.wrightplaceinc.net skype: talmidim msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Dane Trethowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, December 15, 2006 8:11 AM Subject: Ipod Shuffle and connecting to an audio system Hi! Ok, I've read my Shuffle manual and it doesn't mention connecting to a Hi-Fi or audio system actually, it just mentions connecting the headphones to the headphones port so obviously it doesn't have a dedicated line-out but I can say that it works when I connect it to the music port on my Micro Hi-Fi here, the auxilary port of my Panasonic RXED50 portable CD Radio Cassette unit etc. I've also hooked it up to computer speakers without a problem so I think I can safely assume from all this that if you were to connect the unit to the line-in of an amp for instance, you'd get pretty good results though (as has b een mentioned) not quite as good as you would get if you had a dedicated line-out socket or port. Now having said all that, its possible that there may be an Ipod shuffle dock out there somewhere that gives the user a dedicated line- out socket. Thanks for raising this, most interesting.

Re: major ipod shuffle problems
Hi Alison. I'm no expert with the ipods but it sounds like you may have corrupted the internal database with it going down during a transfer. I'd guess it's similar to other players and has a means of doing a hard reset. This is usually done by pressing certain keys to interrupt the start up of the player and then revealing a menu where you can re-format or clean the database. There may also be a small hole for inserting a paperclip to do the same job. You'll need sighted assistance to do this but you may want to refer to your manual or the apple support pages first. You might also want to join the blind ipod mailing list by sending a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word subscribe in the subject line. Regards.

iPod shuffle problem
I used annapod to load an audible book on to my iPod. Most of the time I can do this without any difficulty. When I loaded my last book on to the iPod it lost the connection while I was loading the book. I reformated the iPod and updated to the latest software. I can load the same book on to the iPod but it won't play. Is there something that the iPod sees that won't let it play this book? How can I fix this? ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.

Re: Ipod shuffle and winamp plug-in
Hi. I've got this plugin, and after reading the documentation, I think I know what I did wrong originally. When I first tried it, I tried copying and pasting tracks but it didn't work. I then realized that you have to actually add songs to your Winamp library, which I hadn't done before, but can certainly do. The first time, it messed up my iPod to the point I had to reformat it. Not fun for me. So i'll give it another try and let you guys know how it works. At 02:04 PM 11/26/2005, you wrote: Hi all!

Re: Ipod shuffle and winamp plug-in
Control tab to the windows library. Tab once here and you will hear library button press spacebar. (I'm assuming you're using Jaws here since you have not said differently). Now, arrow down until you hear add media and press enter. From here you need to brows to the place where you store your music files and highlight that folder. Press enter and the process of adding your song titles to your Winamp library should begin. Note, the music directory itself is not transferred, simply a listing of the titles in your music folder is added to the library so adding media to library is not really a space issue. A few people have thought this was the case but it is definitely not. This process can take from a few seconds up to a half hour or more depending on how many files you have in your music folder and the operating speed of your system. You can contact me privately if you like should you have any problems but the process is really very simple--it has to be, even I was able to figure it out. - Original Message - From: Allison Mervis [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Ipod shuffle and winamp plug-in
Hi Robert Ok, I tried as you suggested as I'd never imported songs into the library before believe it or not. However when I look at the tracks, all i seem to see is that it says, no artist, no title for each track. Is there a way I can change this behavior? I'd really like to get to know the library better. All I really do with it is listen to Shoutcast radio, but if it can do lots of cool things with your music, I'd be willing to try it if I can get it to work right. Thanks.

Re: Instructions on Getting IPod Shuffle to be Accessible
Hello: here you go. this is some great info. Original Message - From: Chris Skarstad [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2005 5:57 AM Subject: I conquered the iPod shuffle!!! Hi all! This is going to be a rather long post, so if you're really not interested, feel free to move along to the next message or whatever you'd like to do. For those who are interested though, I'd like to share a few tips as to how I got the shuffle to work for me. I gotta give a big thanks to Anna Dresner, who just wrote a great book on this whole thing. I haven't purchased iit yet but will do so soon. Ok, here goes! The iPod shuffle is probably the most accessible version of the iPod out there. It's a very small device, about the size of a pack of gum, but maybe just a little bit wider and a bit thicker as well. It's white in color but if you have any vision you can buy skins for it which will change it all kinds of colors.It also comes with earbuds, and a little lanyard for hanging it around your neck. It's very light, weighing in at all about 1 7th of an ounce! So this is a tiny lil thing, lol. On one end you have a headphone jack. You just plug the included earbuds into it or if you have another pare of headphones with a similar plug, those will work as well. On the opposite end, you have the USB connection. It is covered up by a little removable piece of plastic that you can take off and put back on. Don't lose this little baby, because you only get one. You can plug the shuffle directly into the USB port on the back of your computer. The internal battery is charged when you do this. So you'll probably want to keep it plugged in there for about 4 hours or so. I'm sure you can probably use the shuffle while the battery is charging, but for the very first time I wanted to give it a full charge. With the unit you get a software cd containing the iPod updater software and a copy of iTunes. As you guys read before, I was originally dead set against installing iTunes. I didn't want it on my computer because I didn't think I would ever use it. Then I found out about Brian's scripts, which may change my mind about that. The first time I installed the software, I chose not to install iTunes directly afterwords. You'll want to do this, especially if you'll be using alternative software to transfer your files. Like others have said on the list, for some unknown reason, iTunes must be present on your system in order for everything to work. Without it installed, Anapod Explorer wouldn't even find my iPod. Windows found it, but not Anapod. One very perplexing thing in all this. In order to continue with the install of your iPod software, the instalation program is going to ask for the 11 digit serial number found on the box for your iPod. Write this number down, because you're going to need it. The other problem I had with this, at least with JAWS 6, is that when it presents this dialogue, the edit box to type the number into is not immediately available. The only way i was able to get it typed in is to have sighted help moving the mouse to the specific spot on the screen so that JAWS would find the focus in the edit field. You can then type in the serial number and continue with the install. So, after this, you just install the iPod updater software, at which time, it should tell you if your iPod needs to be formatted. Mine didn't need to be, but the updater program will let you re-initialize the iPod if you need to do it. If all goes well with this, then it's time to install the iTunes software. You may be asked to reboot when you're finished. If you are, please do so. When you come back up, you'll probably be asked to register your iPod with Apple. You'll want to do that, in case you run into any technicle problems, and they can find your information in their database a little easier. Just connect your iPod to your computer via the USB Port if you haven't already done so, and follow the onscreen prompts and you'll first give your iPod a name and set a few other preferences. Now, open up iTunes, and go to the edit menu. You'll need to use your screenreader's review cursor a lot for this, but it can most certainly be done. Once in the edit menu, choose preferences. You'll want to make sure that the setting for iTunes to load when this iPod is connected is not! checked. so uncheck that box, and in the iPod tab, make sure you check the box for disc use mode. there'll be a dialogue that comes up letting you know that doing this makes it like a drive in windows, but this is ok so just press the ok button. After that, you can install Anapod explorer. All of the default settings it gives you are fine, so there probably isn't much of a need to change any of them. When you install it, you'll want to go to your system tray. you should see an item there that says, Anapod Manager iPod shuffle. Press enter and from the menu, choose the item that says, connect

I conquered the iPod shuffle!!!
Hi all! This is going to be a rather long post, so if you're really not interested, feel free to move along to the next message or whatever you'd like to do. For those who are interested though, I'd like to share a few tips as to how I got the shuffle to work for me. I gotta give a big thanks to Anna Dresner, who just wrote a great book on this whole thing. I haven't purchased iit yet but will do so soon. Ok, here goes! The iPod shuffle is probably the most accessible version of the iPod out there. It's a very small device, about the size of a pack of gum, but maybe just a little bit wider and a bit thicker as well. It's white in color but if you have any vision you can buy skins for it which will change it all kinds of colors.It also comes with earbuds, and a little lanyard for hanging it around your neck. It's very light, weighing in at all about 1 7th of an ounce! So this is a tiny lil thing, lol. On one end you have a headphone jack.

Re: Anapod Explorer and the iPod shuffle
I believe you can use Real Player to transfer tunes too. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/24/2005 6:04:13 PM Hi folks I just recently got myself an iPod shuffle. If you don't know what one of these little beauties is, where've ya been? check out http://www.ipod.com and go to the iPod shuffle link. Ok with all that out of the way, here's the situation. For a while now a lot of people have said that the better program to use to transfer songs to your iPod is Anapod explorer, located at http://www.anapod.com It gives the process of transfering songs a windows explorer type of interface, and I'm definitely for that. I didn't and in its current state, won't ever install iTunes. So I got everything set up. I hooked the iPod up to my computer's USB port and just as it should, Windows XP recognizes the iPod as a drive, it's drive g in case anyone is interested. You're supposed to make sure you can do this before you get started with Anapod Explorer. Ok, so i did that. i then went and downloaded and installed the newest version of Anapod explorer, I got the trial version and right now I'm glad I did because as I write this I'm still not able to use it much. They tell you to connect your iPod to the computer via USB. Then, you're supposed to go to the system tray and right click on the Anapod manager icon, and choose the connect iPod shuffle option. When I do this I get an error message saying that Anapod couldn't find any windows iPods, even though Windows can see it as a drive. It suggests running the updater and restoring the iPod to its factory defaults, which i did. Every time I try to access the shuffle in this way I get this error message. I'm wondering if anyone else who uses this software has had a similar error message, and if so, how'd you get around it? also, are there any other accessible programs for transfering songs to and from your iPod? I'd really love to actually use the thing I paid so much for.

Re: Anapod Explorer and the iPod shuffle
The first release of the scripts will just focus upon getting music across from ITunes to the Shuffle and manipulating the software and hardware. Since I wrote, I have also made it possible to easily view the contents of a CD in ITunes and import songs into your ITunes library, even selecting non-contiguous songs is easy to do. I'll give anything a try, so let's get this release out, then I'll take a look at the music store.

I am most definitely interested in knowing when these are out!!! At 09:32 PM 6/24/2005, you wrote: Hi Here is a message I recently posted to the blind audible list. I wasn't going to post it here, but given Chris's message, here goes. I was very much inspired by Anna Dresner's book which I purchased from national braille press recently, entitled The IPod Experience, to begin creating some jaws scripts for ITunes. These scripts will be free of charge, basically because I have created them since I personally want access to ITunes and the Shuffle to transfer books from audible. They should be ready for anyone who would like them some time within the next two weeks, and if people would like them as and when, please send me a message. At the moment, the following features are included. Please remember I am at an early stage with this. 1. I have included the ability to track focus in the various lists, for example what I call the main category list displaying such items as library, radio, music store, etc. The good thing is that my scripts do not depend upon highlight colour assignments to track the focus. This should also apply to the list of songs in the opposite list which shows which songs are on the IPod Shuffle, although this has not been tested yet as I am awaiting my new IPod from Audible. 2. The concept behind these scripts is that everything should be accessible from the keyboard. Therefore, we have a keystroke which moves you directly into the library area. Once there, you can use navigational keystrokes to move forward and back through the available songs in your library. Jaws will announce the song in the library as you move to it, and will advise you when you get to the top or bottom of the list. 3. If you find a song you wish to manipulate in the library with the library navigation keys, simply select it with a keystroke, then for example hit delete or whatever you want to do. For example, enter will play the song. 4. The other thing I have done is to make it possible to drag and drop into ITunes from windows explorer, and this seems to work well with audible books. You find the file you want, copy it to the clipboard with control+C, then alt+tab over to ITunes, and hit control+V to paste it in there. That's about it for the moment, but if anyone has any further suggestions, feel free to let me know.

Chris, I had exactly the same problem. For some reason, it didn't start working until I installed Itunes. Once Itunes saw the shuffle, I was able to close Itunes and AnnaPod Explorer was able to connect to the Shuffle.

These scripts will be free of charge, basically because I have created them since I personally want access to ITunes and the Shuffle to transfer books from audible. They should be ready for anyone who would like them some time within the next two weeks, and if people would like them as and when, please send me a message. At the moment, the following features are included. Please remember I am at an early stage with this. 1. I have included the ability to track focus in the various lists, for example what I call the main category list displaying such items as library, radio, music store, etc. The good thing is that my scripts do not depend upon highlight colour assignments to track the focus. This should also apply to the list of songs in the opposite list which shows which songs are on the IPod Shuffle, although this has not been tested yet as I am awaiting my new IPod from Audible. 2. The concept behind these scripts is that everything should be accessible from the keyboard. Therefore, we have a keystroke which moves you directly into the library area. Once there, you can use navigational keystrokes to move forward and back through the available songs in your library. Jaws will announce the song in the library as you move to it, and will advise you when you get to the top or bottom of the list. 3. If you find a song you wish to manipulate in the library with the library navigation keys, simply select it with a keystroke, then for example hit delete or whatever you want to do. For example, enter will play the song. 4. The other thing I have done is to make it possible to drag and drop into ITunes from windows explorer, and this seems to work well with audible books. You find the file you want, copy it to the clipboard with control+C, then alt+tab over to ITunes, and hit control+V to paste it in there.

ipod shuffle
Hello everyone, if anyone is interested, I have found out some good information. I have a ipod shuffle, just got it actually, and I got sick and tired of the freaking itunes interface for copying mp3s to my ipod. so I went on the web and searched a new solution. this solution I found requires python to be installed, and will run on any platform that supports python. whatyou can do is just copy mp3s or other supported audio files onto the ipod shuffle, you can either put them in the main directory, the rot dir, or put files in folders on it. then you run this rebuild_db python application right off the ipod shuffle, and it rebuilds the database on the shuffle. it seems to work great. I've used it on two ipods, and 4 different computers. in a few days when I get my imac I will try it on that. If you want any more information check out this website, http://shuffle-db.sourceforge.net/ take care. ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ipod Shuffle
Hi there, I am attempting to confirm a suspicion with the Ipod Shuffle, and that is that music must indeed be transfered from the PC using the Itunes software. I could not get it to work using Windows Explorer, although it makes a fine jump drive when using this method to transfer files. I believe that I had read that a new version of Anapod Explorer will eventually support an alternative method to the Itunes program, but I also wanted to make certain that Windows Explorer is not an option, unless I am doing something incorrectly.

Re: Ipod Shuffle
As far as i know, any ipod will not work with windows explorer for transfering music and after listening it, because ipod makes special database where the tracks are stored that its possible to listen to them. However i also found that anapod explorer will be updated for ipod shuffle support. I also found a free program called vpod which transfers music files from ipod to pc and from pc to ipod, but the last version came out in 2003. I contacted the author of the program so in a short time i hope that the answer will be positive about ipod shuffle.

RE: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible?
Can you use the ipod for other tasks, doyou use jaws onit? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of KStarrett Sent: Sunday, January 23, 2005 7:34 AM To: PC audio discussion list. Subject: RE: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible? Hi Chris, I got an ipod just after Christmas and -- with a little help from some listers -- I am able to transfer music and manage it once it's on the ipod. I bought a program called Anapod explorer (from a company called Red Chair Software) that allows me to access the contents of the ipod in a tree format just like windows explorer. The program is pretty cheap (around $25) and works great with jfw. The one drawback with anapod is that you need another program to do the ripping and encoding of the tracks. Red Chair Software recommends a program called audio grabber but I'm using Itunes to do the import of tracks mostly because it's ultimately easier despite the unfriendliness of the app in general. The long and short of it is that you can absolutely transfer and manage your music on the ipod. I love the ipod and am not sorry I bought one. My understanding of the ipod shuffle is that, unlike the ipod, you have to load the music in the order in which you want to hear it. In other words I don't think you can do playlists or random play. That's not an issue for me since I load the songs in my preferred order anyway. Sorry for the lengthy post but I hope it was helpful.

RE: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible?
Do you mean the contacts and stuff like that? Though you can see the folder(s) when the ipod is connected to the computer you wouldn't be able to use the menus anyway when it isn't connected. So I guess the answer is not really.

Re: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible?
On Behalf Of Debbie Crafts Sent: June 12, 2004 1:23 PM To: 'PC audio discussion list. ' Subject: RE: MP3 Ipod Hello, I won an Ipod at work and have been able to get it somewhat functional. The first step was to ditch the Itunes software, which I found totally unusable. There is a peace of software called Anapod Explorer put out by RedChair software which works like a dream. The URL is www.redchairsoftware.com and It organizes the Ipod in to folders and puts an icon on your desktop which you basically access like just another folder in My Computer. You can either copy/paste or send-to files to this window just like you can a folder on your hard drive, and Anapod even lets you manipulate playlists in an intuitive manner. It doesn't insist on synchronizing the Ipod with a library on your computer as Itunes apparently does. The documentation is called the Omnitome and is on their website. In terms of using the device itself, I found that the remote control is far the easiest interface. There are definite buttons for play/pause, previous and next. You press down on the prev. and next buttons to fast forward or rewind through a selection. I have had limited success in using the unit itself by counting the audible clicks emitted by the Ipod when you access the touch wheel. The second selection on the menu is playlists and then you touch the middle button for enter. If you numerically sequence your playlists in Anapod, you can then count clicks to the playlist you want, enter, then either touch the top of the wheel to play or use the play button on the remote. Not the easiest interface in the world to use, but with a little elbow grease, it can be made to cooperate a little. I highly recommend that anyone interested in using an Ipod check out Anapod explorer. I also found it essential to sit with a sighted person enough to get some guidance in figuring out the interface. Hope these remarks are helpful. Debbie ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible?
hi The more information out there, the better. Don't ever apologize for a lengthy post if it's helpful to someone else, and this sure looks promising. I'm kind of thinking about also looking into a MuVo from Creative labs. From what I can tell, it seems a bit more inexpensive, and if I don't have to use any special software to transfer files from my computer to the MuVo, so much the better.

Re: Apple Ipod Shuffle accessible?
I can see I'm going to have to do a bit of research on this, but I was under the impression that the iPod shuffle was a flash memory based MP3 player and it cost around $100. I've heard one of the controversial issues about the iPod Shuffle is that it has no display, making some wonder how successful it'll be. I assume this means that at least playing the iPod Shuffle should be fairly accessible. What I don't understand is how this makes it so different from say the Creative MuVo which is a flash memory based MP3 player without a display that costs around $80. the MuVo is also nice because you don't need any proprietary software to copy music to it. You just plug it into your computer's USB port, and it shows up as a removeable drive. You can then use Windows Explorer to move MP3's, WMA's, ..., over to it. Of course, you could also just use it to transfer files from system to system.
