AIRPOD PROS WONT PLAY MUSIC AND FREEZES IPHONE 12 PRO MAX on IOS 14.2

I’ve had zero issues with my airpods pro until last week. Now they won’t play music regardless of the app. Other things like Siri and phone calls work fine. It’s only media that fails. I’ve tried all sound related settings. I’ve disconnected from iPhone and I’ve reset the airpods. Nothing has any effect.

I’ve tried this and, although my AirPods Pro are connected on Bluetooth and register on the control centre list, they cannot be selected in the control centre

I’m also having the same issue , I was on the phone with Apple support for an hour and couldn’t get the AirPod pros to connect without freezing my phone. I just made an appointment with t -mobile and see if it’s my iPhone 12 Pro.

Dear all,

I am facing some problems with my airpods pro and my iphone 12 pro max... my left airpods is not working when I connect them to my iphone. I've tried everything thinking it was a problem with the airpods pro but after checking with other devices as macbook 2019, iphone 11 pro and iphone 8, I've realized that both airpods pro works perfectly besides when I connect them to the iphone 12 pro max... someone with same issue?

What shall I do?

My iphone has the last version updated.

Thank you all in advance,

All these so called fixes don’t work I have tried them all. So what is the next answer Apple? Here I have this expensive phone, expensive earphones oh that I can’t use because I can’t freaking hear out of them. The off brand work better then these .The only problem with those no microphone that I found. Ugh

Hello,

When your AirPods won't play, try this:

1) Open the Control Center

2) Long press on the music controls

3) Select the output option (little up-arrow with circles)

4) Select AirPods

Good luck.

I also did this and I am having the same problem :(

I have the same problem on iPhone 12, and when I select AirPods, the circle of endless waiting twirls for minutes. Until last week, the AirPods connected instantly as I put them in my ears.

I’m also having the same problem the airpods pro are connect but not playing any media and even causing apps like YouTube to hang

I’m so frustrated with the AirPod pros and my iPhone 12! I had the 8 plus for years and this problem occurred when I upgraded my phone. Where’s the solution?

There is no solution except buy a different brand of earbuds. It’s a total joke.
