I listen to my audio books with a 4th generation iPod Shuffle with an integrated iPod holder/headphone combo. It works exceptionally well.

I have one genuine OEM Apple charging/data transfer cable. I also have several aftermarket cables. The aftermarket cables do not work. Look up these cables on Amazon and you will see plenty of evidence that this is not an isolated phenomenon.

Does anybody have an Apple OEM charging cable for a Gen-4 iPod Shuffle that they would be willing to sell or donate to me? These cables are proprietary to the Gen-4 Shuffle, and to the best of my knowledge, there is no workable substitute.

Thank you.
