iPod iPod Shuffle cuts off last seconds of songs...

[t300]

My iPod shuffle doesn't play the last few seconds of songs, it totally cuts them off and goes to the next track. Before you ask, no my songs aren't all cut off at the end and play fine on my iPod photo and iTunes. Anyone have any ideas?

Good to hear about these problems before I invest in a product.


Keep the negatives coming for once to protect the consumer(s).

Yes, well, I assume this is not a problem that everyone has, but I do. Anyone have any ideas?

could this be associated with crossfade settings?

Yeah, but it's a shuffle...It has crossfade prefs? I was pretty sure it had nothing of the sort.

My first shuffle that I had cut off the last seconds of a song as well. That shuffle had many other problems so I returned it. The new shuffle I have doesn't seem to do this.

Hi, my first shuffle... had a problem with the volume button... it was too sensative. It would fade out the volume on its own accord. Also... if i pressed the volume down button it would fade out completely.

maybe you're experiencing the same problem with your next button?

I got it replaced no questions asked... and have no problems with my new one.

Well, dang...I can't return this and get another one at the Apple Store, even though I have the receipt, because I have gone past my return date..I guess I will have to send it in to Apple?

remember that it is a rev. a product.

have you tried using the iPod Updater to do a software restore? this might be able to fix the problem, i had this happen to my sister's mini once, a restore fixed it and it hasnt happened since

Inside the shuffle /Volumes/IPOD_NAME/iPod_Control/iTunes/
there are prefences that look identical in size to the preferences of iTunes itself.

If you change your itunes preferences to include no autofade, the cut dissapears

Same with EQ etc..

This works only if you set the slider to 0s, simply deselecting the check-box for this "feature" does not work (at least for my iPod mini).
