Has there ever been a way/consideration to update an ipod shuffle by attaching it to an iphone or ipad? With a small audio cord, would it be possible to update and charge an ipod shuffle via an iphone or ipad? This could be useful for people on the go who want to add music to a workout playlist or have forgotten to charge their shuffle before a run/ride.
No, this is not possible. A computer has traditionally been a required part of the whole package, and only recently has become optional with iCloud and direct iTunes / app downloads.
In any event an iOS device has to get its content directly from a computer or directly from Apple. There is no other way.
As of now no, but considering that apple is trying to get rid of the computer for avrage consumers you might see somthing along the lines of this in the future but i really don't know.
