remove songs from ipod but keep in library

Hello bobble,

This is the User Guide for an iPod Shuffle 4th Gen. You may want to save the PDF or link for future reference. I will paste the section for removing songs for you.

"Remove a song or other item from iPod shuffle:

1. Connect iPod shuffl e to your computer.
2. In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the list of devices.
3. In iTunes, click the device button to select iPod shuffle.
4. Select a song or other item, then press the Delete or Backspace key on your keyboard.

• If you manually remove a song or other item from iPod shuffle, it isn’t deleted from your iTunes library."

I hope this helps.
