If your AirPods case is flashing green

Same for me. I’ve had my 2nd gen AirPods for 2 months and today they stopped working. I accidentally unpaired my AirPods so I went to pair them back but the animation that pops up on your phone when you flip the lid open didn’t show up so I looked at the led light and it was flashing green with both air pods in the case so I press the reset button down for 15 secs and it stayed solid white, no amber. My AirPods won’t reset!! My phone is up to date, the case and AirPods are fully charged, I cleaned the AirPods and case but I have a flashing green light still when I pop my case open wth? I don’t understand how they have answers for every color led light but not for “flashing green light”! $170 down the drain

I am having exactly the same issue.

left AirPod just have out. Holding down the reset button the case does not work. No matter how long I hold it, it doesn’t flash amber.

By any chance is anyone else here on the IOS beta trial?

Go into Settings on your phone and iPad, go to Bluetooth, and unpair the AirPods. Then open the case and hold the pairing button on the back until the white flashing light flashes amber a few times and goes back to flashing white. Release the button and close the case. Then, open the case near your iPhone and pair the AirPods.

This process will re-pair both AirPods with the charging case and resets their settings. Both AirPods should work after this.

I have this same issue. 2 months after buying 2nd gen airpods and the right one will not work. When I put both in the case, it flashes green, when I remove the right one, the flashing stops. The left works okay and shows up in the batteries section, but the right one is not working at all or showing up

Same issue

Started with left airpod not working. Did reset including "forget device",. When I push the back button to reset / repair I get a straight white LED, after i release i get a flashing green light!! When I check on bluetooth to see if airpods are available , they dont show up in the list . What is this apple? Please help. WHAT IS THE FLASHING GREEN LIGHT? These airpods worked for 2 weeks and now have this issue. Thanks

All of this literally happened to me and the funny thing is that for short burst of time they did connect to my iPhone but the minute they are I the case connection never occurrs again I don’t know if it’s the case or the actual AirPod anymore I think i’m gonna he the AirPod replaced and i’m gonna buy a new case. Personally I think the second generation are more trouble some than the first generation and that’s shameful, what’s up apple ive never have had a problem with any of your product what happened here

I have the same issue as well! To make matters worse my gf bought my airpods when she was travelling in NY. I live in Brazil, hope Apple support also works here.

The fact that Apple didn't mention the green blinking lights (and that absolutely anyone knows what does it mean) is ridiculous.

I had an issue where my right airpod stopped working in the middle of a run. I tired to charge it and the green light on the case kept blinking green. When I placed the working left airpod in the case without the right one the light was a normal solid green. I tried to reset the airpods to factory settings but surprise surprise it fixed nothing. Then I went looking for help and everyone tried to tell me to reset the airpods. Even though that was the first thing I tried, I reset them several more times. The light on the case went from a blinking green to a solid white and I couldn't even get any device to recognize the airpods after that. I took it in to the Genius Bar and was basically told it was defective hardware. They replaced my right airpod right away and now everything works again. There's no quick fix without heading to the Genius Bar for replacement. Hope this helps anyone else looking for a fix to the blinking green light.

I have the exact same thing going on!

I used mine both at the same time and noticed that the right AirPod had a low battery. So, I proceeded to charge my right Pod and just use my left. Since then, the right Pod never connects and whenever I put the right Pod in the case it flashes green. I contacted Apple Support, they had me set up a Genius Bar appointment. I went to Apple and they just ordered me a replacement right Pod. It's been 4 days and they haven't gotten back to me yet. Hopefully it won't take long. It has been very annoying not having AirPods for days.

So I have had the same problem as discussed on this forum. I was on the phone with apple support for well over an hour and the solution was for Apple to send out a one time offer of a free right airpod. This was after having to endure a significant amount of redoing the things I had already tried...with no success. I also did those things on my ipad to confirm that it was an issue with the right airpod. I was at least able to eat lunch and do work while I was on hold and going through the motions. I suspect that Apple is aware of this issue and it is caused by the new 12.3 update but I do not know this for sure. Seems like this was the timing of the failure. If you have this issue, call support and endure the pain and get a new one sent. Or if your time is too valuable, go buy new ones.

I posted recently about my AirPods and the flashing green light after the case and AirPods ran out of battery so I took my AirPods into two different apple stores and apparently it’s an issue which has arisen after apple changed the AirPod software so you could use one AirPod alone if you lost the other. They tried several methods like unpairing the AirPods from the case and re pairing them they actually managed to make the left one work but only by itself so maybe apple will fix this with a firmware update but if your pods are in warranty go to the apple store as soon as you can I got one AirPod and the case replaced!

Then maybe try having your phone connected to Wi-Fi, plug in both the phone and AirPods to power with the AirPods near the phone. This should trigger a firmware update on the AirPods if one is available. Leave the devices like that for about an hour, then try the AirPods again. Beyond that, I'm afraid I won't be much help.

Yeah I have the same problem with my gen 2 Airpods too!! My gen 1 used to work fine without any problem but I lost it so I had to buy a new one. Since it's gen 2 and still under warranty, I'm asking Apple for replacement. How about you guys?
