How to check/update Powerbeats?

Hi there, all roads lead to this article: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201127


But the article doesn’t tell you:

  • How to find the firmware version
  • How to see if your version is old or new
  • How to update


Why do I want to check the firmware?

  • A couple of times a month the Powerbeats won’t turn on (it’s almost always fully charged)
  • A couple of times a month they won’t pair or switch between devices
  • A couple of times a month they won’t even reset


I use the Powerbeats about 4 times a month so basically, they don’t work about half the time - it’s truly mind-numbing sorry.


Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated. BTW if the forums offered a beats topic I would’ve posted there.


Cheers, Ben
