Playlists

Build playlists, rearrange files and delete unwanted items with a mere touch. Access albums, tracks, playlists and podcasts quickly by touching the Playlists and On-The-Go icons.

Editing is accomplished easily from the On-The-Go playlist. Pressing the + button adds tracks and touching the red circle removes them. Rearrange files by touching and moving the icon with a finger until it positioned at the desired location. However, the editing option is not available once a playlist is saved in the iTune library. The ipod hard drive is no longer accessible on newer versions, so it is not necessary to eject the device to disconnect it from iTunes.

WiFi Capability

The WiFi capabilities of the ipod enable the device to become a pure dab radio. Free hotspots are available at McDonald's and other restaurants, but a subscription for continuous service costs less than 5.00 a month.

Videos
