iPod shuffle Basics
Charging the Battery
iPod shuffle has an internal battery that is rechargeable and not user-replaceable. For
best results, the first time you use iPod shuffle, let it charge for about three hours to
fully charge it. The battery is 80-percent charged in about two hours and fully charged
in about three hours. If iPod shuffle isn’t used for a while, the battery might need to be
recharged.
You can sync music while the battery is charging. You can disconnect and use
iPod shuffle before it’s fully charged.
In iTunes, the battery icon next to your iPod shuffle name shows the battery status. The
icon displays a lightning bolt when the battery is charging and a plug when the battery
is fully charged.
You can charge the iPod shuffle battery in two ways:
Â
Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
Â
Use the Apple USB Power Adapter, available separately.
To charge the battery using your computer:
m
Connect iPod shuffle to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer using the
included USB cable. The computer must be turned on and not in sleep mode.
When the battery is charging, the status light on iPod shuffle is solid orange. When the
battery is fully charged, the status light turns green.
If iPod shuffle is being used as an external disk or is syncing with iTunes, the status light
blinks orange to let you know that you must eject iPod shuffle before disconnecting it.
In this case, your battery may be either still charging or fully charged. You can check
the status by viewing the battery icon next to your iPod shuffle name in the list of
devices in iTunes.
If you don’t see the status light, iPod shuffle might not be connected to a high-power
USB 2.0 port. Try another USB 2.0 port on your computer.
If you want to charge the battery when you’re away from your computer, you can
connect iPod shuffle to an Apple USB Power Adapter. To purchase iPod shuffle
accessories, go to www.apple.com/ipodstore.
To charge the battery using the Apple USB Power Adapter:
1
Connect the AC plug adapter to the power adapter (they might already be connected).
2
Plug the USB connector of the USB cable into the power adapter.
3
Connect the other end of the USB cable to iPod shuffle.
