Very Stupid iPod Shuffle Question!

Now, please try not to laugh at me too much.. Im incredibly dumb when it comes to technology.. But here we go.

My friend kindly bought me an iPod Shuffle for my birthday a couple of weeks ago. Admittedly i haven't used it much, but am just working out how to do it Anyway, i seem to have a problem getting it to shuffle It says to slide the thing on the back down to the shuffle symbol, but it wont slide I can get the songs to play in order, but that defeats the object of the iPod shuffle!!lol

Can anyone please, please help me out and tell me how to make it shuffle my songs!

Very much appreciated!

Jess

Hi Carole,

No, it just says that you can switch it to shuffle by moving the thing on the back.. But i dont understand how

unless its very straightforward i cant do it lol!

Tried to post the actual page but it won't display the icons you need so i'll post the actual page from the web site.
The bit that you need is in the four steps to playing music on ipod shuffle

I have an ipod shuffle, if you push the switch all the way to the bottom on the back, that shuffles the songs

Hi Gems. I thought thats what you had to do but the furthest down it goes is to play them in order Is the switch broken or so you have to do anything other than just slide it?
