AirPods appear in my device list but can’t remove.

Hi


So I used to have AirPods a long time ago and they keep reappearing in find my app, even though when I sign in to appleid.apple.com no such device is showing.

I have tried removing the device in the find my app, it disappears for a while then all of a sudden they are back.


I dont know how to fix, while it’s annoying it’s not causing any other issues.

Has anyone experienced this? If so how do I get rid of them permanently?


Thanks


john

Unpair these:

This is occurring because they assigned to a device that is associated to your Apple Account. Note that AirPods do not have their own IP Addresses. They show up at the last location on the devices these were synced with. So, on all devices associated to this Apple Account, remove them from Bluetooth devices.
