Hi Sparks0829,
Thank you for the reply. I truly appreciate you taking the time to help me. The information in the first link doesn't seem to be up to date. When I go to the "Find My" app on my iPhone and try and add a device, I cannot type anything. It simply goes into a search mode with a little magnifying glass and never stops...basically never finding anything. I can't click on anything, there are no emoji, nothing.
Thoughts?
Thanks again,
hal138
hal138,
You're certainly welcome! Let's continue working together to sort this out.
Which iOS version is listed in Settings > General > About on your iPhone? Are you signed into iCloud with your Apple ID on your iPhone in Settings?
Are you pairing your Powerbeats3 with your iPhone before checking the Find My app? We ask because there isn't a way to manually add them in the Find My app; they'll appear there once you pair them with your iPhone.
Send over these details, and we'll take a closer look from there.
Thanks!
Thanks, Sparks0829,
On my iPhone Xs Max, I have ios 15.2.
I am pairing the Powerbeats3 before checking the Find My app, yes. But I'm checking the Find My app on my iPhone. Should I check it on a laptop, signing in under my icloud.com account?
Thanks,
Hal
hal138,
Our pleasure. We'd like to learn more to see how we can help.
Are you signed into iCloud with your Apple ID on your iPhone in Settings? Is Find My turned on in Settings > [your name] > Find My?Do you see any of your devices when checking the Find My app on your iPhone?
Also, are you able to see your Powerbeats in your device list if you sign into iCloud and access Find My on your laptop?
Thanks!
I'm signed into iCloud with my AppleID on my laptop and on my phone. I do see my other devices on my phone and on my laptop. I see my iPhone, my Apple Watch, and my Thinkpad. I don't see the Powerbeats on the phone or the laptop.
