A:AnswerI have not ever found a mp3 player that would properly shuffle a large number of songs. I even have trouble with shuffle with music apps on android phones.
A:AnswerWe have to use an auxiliary cord or data cable.
We cannot connect without using direct connections. Laptop, Tablet, Android phone, and car radio.
A:AnswerThey are the same, but you can build playlists offline on your PC or MAC, and download as a folder to the SanDisk. Beware that you must follow the PDF manual instructions EXACTLY. Then it is a snap. Go lists are playlists that are populated one song at a time using SanDisk options.
A:AnswerI have not directly downloaded a CD but have downloaded songs I had converted to digital files from CD's. So bottom line is you can put your CDs on this player. That worked with no problem other than losing some graphics like an album cover for some songs. That did not happen with most graphic art that I downloaded. Think some graphics did not transfer well because the player is so small and it depends on how the art work was produced. There was no issue at all with the actual music I downloaded
A:AnswerThere is a pause button. It seems to hold in place even if powered down. When I have used it, I power off and turn back on to continue where it left off. So I guess you are ok for audiobooks. Hope that helps.
A:AnswerOn the box of the MP3 player, it states that it is compatible for iTunes. When I was in the store I asked the same questions and the guy read on the back of the box that yes you can.
