I don't have any Apple products and for some reason can not use iTunes on my laptop. Can I download my playlists from my laptop to the Shuffle?

The only way to add music to the shuffle is via itunes, because there is no screen and thus no itunes app on the device. Sounds like you may have to upgrade your laptop to get the latest version of itunes, because itunes is available on Macs and windows computers.

The Shuffle will work with Vista, but the current version of iTunes (7.1) has a few minor problems:- When disconnecting the iPod, use the iTunes disconnect feature, not the windows remove hardware feature.- If text on the iTuens screen is hard to read, resize the window to refresh it.

My music was on my computer in the I tunes library. The shuffle comes with an adapter that you plug in to the computer attached to the shuffle.

I have never used iTunes so I can't say. I usually but my digital music through the Amazon site. Sorry I could not be more help.

Yes, you can use an iPod shuffle using a double-ended headphone cord, plugged into the Audio In port. The shuffle does not have the wide end to mount it on the front of the unit like a standard iPod nano or iPhone.

No. You have to burn your Itunes songs to a CD, rip them into the Creative Platform and then load them on to the player.

Yes you can buy music from any place and store it in I-tunes. You can also add existing libraries or CDs to the I-tunes. But, you can only use I-tunes as an orginizational system to put things on the shuffle.

Hi, the shuffle comes with a usb cable with a headphone jack in the end that connects to de iPod, used to sync and charge. Haven't tried speakers but I think you can use any speakers that connect with a headphone jack.

No. Imagine that this laptop is similar to your browser. While you can download things onto it, the only things that you can 'run' are apps and the Chrome browser. You can put your music on it, depending on how many songs you have (or keep it on a usb stick or external hard drive). There are many solutions to this (Google play, iTunes is starting to have a similar cloud backup for music). While you can't run iTunes, you can still keep your i-devices up to date using various apps available for Chrome.

I usually use windows media player, but you can use anything really. Itunes works and just copying from windows explorer works also. Hope that helps.

Using iTunes you can move music from any Apple type device to another. You would have to sync the nano first and go through the setup but as long as your iTunes has the music you want on the nano on there you can do it.

no, you can't. Itunes only connects to ipods. You can use windows media player to sync with you fuze. another thing to keep in mind that if you got tracks with DRM from iTunes, they wont be able to trasfer to the Fuze unless you re-rip them to MP3 format.

Your iTunes songs should be stored in a folder on your computer. Those files are aac and unfortunately cannoy be played on the hm-700. They can be easily converted to mp3 and then put on the device. I use foobar2000 to play and convert all of music files.

You can pre-sort your playlist on iTunes by alphabetical order within the Artist Name but outside of that, you will not be able to know in real time what is playing because there is no display screen like the larger iPod versions. The other option is to create smaller 10 song playlists that you know the specific order of and shuffle between them. This inability to know "real-time" what is playing is a small downside of the shuffle and would be a reason to buy the larger iPod with screen display.

Hi there. I'm not sure about the iPod shuffle. However, I would not recommend this item. I only used mine a few times before it broke. Neither Amazon or Lucky would assist me in a replacement or refund so I am very unhappy. Buyer beware.
