How do I add a shuffle song list to Up Next that is already playing? I know when I click on the shuffle symbol for my playlist, that it immediately begins playing that list, however, I want to just add the shuffled songs to the playlist without erasing the Up Next list that I am already playing. Thanks for your help. This was easier to do in the old iTunes.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
The closest I can get is to select the songs and the CTRL-click. Then you have the choice to add them to Up Next, but no choice to shuffle them. 😟
I think that this is a totally valid want. So if I were you, I'd write and ask Apple for this functionality.

Thanks! I put in a request to iTunes!

Hi, this isn't a perfect solution (I'm still investigating), but if you want to add a playlist to Up Next in random order, hold down the OPT key, then click on the "Random Play" button. It'll give you a popup telling you that you're about to add "x" number of songs to Up Next, and ask if you want to clear the ones already there. Click "Don't Clear", and the playlist will be added to Up Next in random order.
The only problem that I still have to work out is that it adds to the beginning of Up Next (as if you'd selected Play Next) instead of the end, as per usual. 😕
Gentlemen
Select the Music ap.
Select Shuffle Music starts playing
there are 2 symbols underneath the play progress indicator.
Make sure that the Loop symbol is white and the shuffle symbol is orange.
This should solve your problem.
...whkjr5, that's not even close to what we were talking about. Worse yet, it sounds like you're talking about the Music App on an iPad anyway.

Anyway you can create playlist of songs that you want to shuffle and play and edit it as you like!
Perfect - took me forever to find this! Ideal for when you've started playing a few selected songs and then want to just keep going with a randomized playlist.
