You can also add a group of songs. For example, to add an album, highlight the album
title, press and hold the Center button until a menu appears, and then choose “Add to
On-The-Go.”

To clear the entire On-The-Go playlist:

To save the On-The-Go playlist on iPod nano:
m Choose Music > Playlists > On-The-Go > Save Playlist.
The first playlist is saved as “New Playlist 1” in the Playlists menu. The On-The-Go
playlist is cleared. You can save as many playlists as you like. After you save a playlist,
you can no longer remove songs from it.
To copy On-The-Go playlists from iPod nano to your computer:
m If iPod nano is set to update songs automatically (see “Syncing Music Automatically” on
page 28) and you create an On-The-Go playlist, the playlist is automatically copied to
iTunes when you connect iPod nano. The new On-The-Go playlist appears in the list of
playlists in iTunes. You can rename, edit, or delete the new playlist, just as you would
any playlist.
