Apple Computer has updated a utility meant to be a last-ditch move by iPod shuffle users who recently bought tracks on iTunes but couldn't get the music to play.

The "iPod shuffle Reset Utility" version 1.0.1 is an upgrade from an October release that was designed to fix first-generation iPod shuffles that wouldn't play music, synchronize with the iTunes music store, or be recognized as legitimate USB devices by Windows or Mac OS X operating systems. That month, Apple tacitly acknowledged that an iTunes update caused the problems with some iPod shuffle players, and recommended that users upgrade to iTunes 7.0.2 and restore the player using the utility.
