ipod shuffle (2nd generation) not showing up in Finder

My ipod shuffle (2nd generation) is not showing up in Finder (or Music). I've tried restarting my laptop, using safe boot mode, trying a different cord.


Because the shuffle charging cord is usb 2.0 (I think?) and my laptop is the usb-C, I use a dongle to make the connection. I'm using a Macbook Pro 2019, OS Monterey 12.4

So an update: I realized through research that ipod shuffles (2nd Generation) have their very own version of charging cords. I had been using a 4th Generation charging cord. Have ordered a 2nd Gen cord and will see what happens!
