Hello bobble,


This is the User Guide for an iPod Shuffle 4th Gen. You may want to save the PDF or link for future reference. I will paste the section for removing songs for you.

"Remove a song or other item from iPod shuffle:

  1. Connect iPod shuffl e to your computer.
  2. In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the list of devices.
  3. In iTunes, click the device button to select iPod shuffle.
  4. Select a song or other item, then press the Delete or Backspace key on your keyboard.
  • If you manually remove a song or other item from iPod shuffle, it isn’t deleted from your iTunes library."


I hope this helps.
