It was a bit tricky.  I had to set something to make the ipod behave like a USB pen drive.   You just copy all the mp3 files to it and run a utility which resets its database of songs.  Then the shuffle function works.

It also charges the battery when connected to the USB socket.  Does the Victor require its own charger?

I had one of those and I just couldn't get anything on it from the computer so I gave it to my Nephew.
