IPhone :: Shuffle In Playlists Isn't Random
Mar 17, 2012
I have only had my Iphone for about 6 months now. It does some things very well.. others not so much. Here is one that I just cant figure out.
I have 80 or so songs in my Gym playlist, from about 70 different artists. (so maybe 3 blue rodeo, 2 Led Zep, 3 VanH etc etc)
When i go into the playlist and hit shuffle it starts playing and seems random but very often will play 2 blue rodeo tunes in a row.
When I say often, I listen to this playlist twice a week at the gym and it happens every time usually in less than an hour.
It is "shuffle" but my phone thinks it knows what I want better than I do? I DONT want to listen to two zep songs in a row.
I have checked the order on my playlist and it seems random enough to me..

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1

Looks like MOTOACTV automatically shuffles your playlist when you play it. Am I missing how to make it play in order. I have a run play list I like to play in the order I actually set it

I dont have my C510 user guide and cant figure this out on my own. According to the web, my C510 should have a shuffle/random feature on the music player, but I dont know how to turn it on.

As a former 3GS user, I am missing what appear to be 2 functions unavailable on the SII:
1 - the ability to select "shuffle" for random music play; and2 - nusic settings (e.g. bass) are not retained, and have to be re-selected each time I start the music player again.Is this just me not knowing where to look, or are those functions really not available on the SII?

The shuffle feature on my iPhone 4S does not seem to be working. When I select an album and hit the "shuffle" button, it plays the tracks in exact order, starting with track 1. If I advance by hitting the next track arrow, it goes to the next track in sequence.
I have confirmed that the "shuffle" button is on (arrows in the upper right are highlighted), and the repeat button is off (arrows in the upper right are not highlighted).

My phone is constantly putting o's into every word, and often just straight up barely types. It also is continuously calling numbers even after I've deleted them from my phone.
I called Bell and they had me wipe my phone and that didn't do anything, so I upgraded the software which also did nothing.

I have the iPhone 4 and a new Sony car deck, model CDXGT540UI. It has USB so I can connect my phone and change the songs through the deck (as opposed to changing songs through the phone).
The issue I am having is when I plug it in, through the deck I select the (only) playlist and shuffle the playlist but each and every time I get in the car the songs are played in the same order. It's like it's chosen a set of songs in random order and frozen it. It would be nice to hop in and listen to a different order each time.
Does any one who connect their phone to their deck have any suggestions?

Why does my iPhone 3G/iPod just play the same song over and over? I cannot figure out how to get it to shuffle or play through an album or playlist. It just started doing this randomly and it's very frustrating!

I noticed after updating to IOS 5.1 that whenever I play music - it is on "shuffle" all the time - whether the shuffle button is actually enabled or not. Also, touching the skip track skips around, skipping ahead 2-4 songs, or back 2-4 songs - as if it's on shuffle all the time.
I deleted all music from the iPhone, checked my playlist that I sync to the iPhone, and resync'ed all the music - same problem.
Why is it on "permanent shuffle"?

whenever I shuffle, it mixes up the songs like it's supposed to. But, when all the songs have been played, it doesn't shuffle again unless I manually do it. This can lead to me hearing the songs in the same order for hours. How do I make it shuffle automatically after all the songs have played?

As a user of music players, the experience in my headphones is very important. Daily,the shuffle option surprises me, taking me to a musical genre to another, and here comes my idea, which has already converted a necessity. During playback of the shuffle, thesongs go from one genre to another, and the ability to equalize each gender individually, depending on features, does not exist. Apple can and must give us the possibility toindividually equalize our songs from itunes or ipod / iphone / iphone, and to have greater experience with the music we hear.

When I open my music app, there should be the replay and shuffle buttons on the top of the app, under the song title, but the other day they disappeared after I downloaded a podcast. I have restarted my phone, updated, and restored, but nothing has fixed it. I can still choose shuffle from the playlist screen, but if i choose a specific song, it won't let me shuffle.

Recently, I have been very irritated with my iphone's music playback because the volume is inconsistent. For almost every song, as it starts playing it will start at a normal volume then decrease suddenly to a common level. It sounds like the volume difference created by sound check. Besides this, doing things such as skipping, turning shuffle on/off, turning repeat on/off, and other minor things will change the volume. the most notable is skipping, which reverts the volume back to the loud version (as if sound check was off), while turning shuffle and repeat on/off only changes the volume slightly (barely noticeable unless playing at a loud volume). I have tried to ignore it for all this time. it would be nice if apple had a simple email contact option to ask questions as well, but apparently they either don't or it is impossible to find, and that ****** me off even more.

Recently my iphone 4s will not shuffle songs. I go to songs and then click shuffle and it randomly picks a song, but instead of shuffling to another random song when it is done it repeats the song over and over. What do I do to fix this?

I have been using iOS5.1 (iPhone 4s), but i suddenly realise that I cant find the repeat and shuffle as well as the airplay options. I have been using the repeats etc so I do know where it is. I just cant access them anymore. This is following yesterday's episode of yahoo mail nightmare. I have done the reset settings, and the home+off button but no help, still no repeat.

I Have iPhone 5s and for the past month when I play my music while running it keeps shuffling. I have the shake to shuffle off and in my playlist the shuffle is off when I start running but after the first song plays it shuffles and on the playlist current song playing has shuffle on so again I turn it off and after one song it is back with shuffle on. It does it only when I run if I'm walking the shuffle does not turn itself back on. since I have had this phone since last year when the 5s came out and have never had this problem during running until the last month.

If I toggle between the shuffle on/off it clearly affects my sound volume from a rich bassy sound (shuffle on) to a hollow tin sound (shuffle off)
