Apple iPod shuffle 1GB 2nd Generation (Clamshell) Orange

One size fits all

iPod shuffle from Apple just may be the biggest thing in small. You know what they say about good things and small packages. But when something 1.62 inches long and about half an ounce holds up to 240 songs, "good" and "small" don't cut it. Especially when you can listen to your music for up to 12 continuous hours.**
Ready to wear

Clip the iPod shuffle to your coin pocket. Clip it to your bag. No matter where you clip your skip-free iPod shuffle, you'll have instant access to music. Put it on, turn it up, and turn some heads.

Remix and match

The first step to wearing 240 songs is downloading iTunes -- free. Then drop your iPod shuffle into the included dock, plug the dock into your Mac or PC's USB port, and sync in minutes. Got more than 240 songs? No problem. Let iTunes autofill your iPod shuffle and get a new musical experience every time.

Controls

iPod shuffle pays due respect to its bigger siblings with a thumb-friendly, circular control pad that puts the "go" in ergonomic. Click the center button to play and pause. Click the outer buttons to move back, skip forward, and adjust volume.

Headphone jack

iPod shuffle's headphone jack does double-duty as a dock connector. Flip iPod shuffle upside-down and drop it into the included dock. Then connect the dock to your Mac or Windows PC via USB for a quick sync and charge. And if you're away from your computer, you can charge on the go with an optional USB adapter.

Clip

Thanks to a sturdy, built-in clip, iPod shuffle goes with anything. Clip it to your sleeve, your lapel, your coin pocket, your backpack. No matter where you wear it, iPod shuffle speaks volumes about your style.

Battery indicator

Green means go, amber means you're low, and red means you've almost hit zero. But with up to 12 hours of battery life,** iPod shuffle may keep rocking even longer than you do.

Shuffle switch

Embrace your inner rebel: Flip the shuffle switch to mix up iPod shuffle's contents. Then flip the switch again to play your handpicked playlists and albums in the order you synced them from iTunes.

Something new every sync.

With iTunes, listening to iPod shuffle is never the same experience twice. Connect iPod shuffle to your Mac or PC and see what musical adventures await.

Stop, dock, and sync

iPod shuffle comes with its very own dock that you connect to your Mac or PC via USB. Then, whenever you feel the need for a quick sync, just drop iPod shuffle into the dock and iTunes goes to work.

More in store

With up to 1GB of storage space, iPod shuffle happily stores files along with your music. Use iTunes to tell iPod shuffle how much space to leave free for files and how much to fill with music.

World's smallest DJ

For the ultimate exercise in uncertainty, let iTunes randomly autofill your iPod shuffle. iTunes creates a playlist that fits your style -- and your iPod shuffle's capacity. For finer control over your portable music collection, set Autofill to sync from specific playlists or add higher-rated songs first. Or turn Autofill off and manually select the songs you want to tote on your iPod shuffle.

Fill 'er up fast

iPod shuffle transfers the contents of an entire CD in a flash, so even if you completely refill iPod shuffle, you won't be waiting very long at all. Of course, total time varies depending on how much music you want to add or replace.

* 1GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less. Song capacity is based on 4 minutes per song and 128-Kbps AAC encoding; actual capacity varies by content.
