Q: Why can I only hear about 5 of the 68 songs I have on my iPod shuffle?
I got it about a week ago and I've made numerous playlists, but when it says it's synced and I unplug it I can only hear about 5 of the songs.
iPod shuffle, iOS 9.2.1

Select the shuffle in iTunes (click its device button on horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in iTunes window. Along left side (in the sidebar), under On My Device, click Music. To the right, the shuffle's song list (songs currently loaded on the shuffle) is shown. Does it show about 5 songs, or 68?
If it's about 5 songs, that's why you only hear about 5 songs when playing the shuffle. The solution is to properly load the remaining songs. If you see 68 songs, the solution is to understand why the other songs are not playing. Please post back with your findings.
