iPod nano (Second Generation) and Fifth Generation iPod (Late 2006), both announced 2006-09-12, allow you to search iPod for songs, album titles, artist names, podcasts, and audio books. The search feature does not search videos, notes, calendars, contacts, or lyrics. Note: The search feature only supports Roman characters.
To search iPod:
- Select Music > Search.
- Enter a search string by using the Click Wheel to navigate the alphabet and pressing the Center button to enter each character. iPod starts searching as soon as you enter the first character, displaying the results on the search screen. For example, if you enter “b,” then iPod displays all music items containing the letter “b.” If you enter “ab,” iPod displays all items containing that sequence of letters.
- To enter a space, press the Next/Fast-forward button.
- To delete the previous character, click the back arrow or press the Previous/Rewind button.
- Click DONE to display the found list, which you can now navigate.
Songs in the found list appear without an icon. Other items are preceded by an icon to show the type of item:
- Album
- Artist
- Audiobook
- Podcast
