Hi Roseiec100,


To clarify, did you have a chance to view and follow the steps in the article looked at before posting?

Set up your AirTag using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Here is the info again:


" Set up your AirTag

  1. Make sure that your device is ready for setup.
  2. If your AirTag is new, remove the wrap around the product and pull out the tab to activate the battery. Your AirTag will play a sound.
  3. Hold your AirTag near your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, then tap Connect.* If you have multiple AirTags and see "More than one AirTag detected", make sure that only one AirTag is near your device at one time. Need help connecting your AirTag
  4. Select an item name from the list, or select Custom Name to name your AirTag and choose an emoji. Then tap Continue.
  5. To register your AirTag with your Apple ID, tap Continue again. 
  6. Tap Done. 

Now you can attach your AirTag to your item and see it in the Find My app

* You can also set up your AirTag in the Find My app. Tap the Items tab, then tap Add Item."



Also, what device specifically are you trying to use to connect it?

Finally, what is the specific message or prompt you see during the process where you're no longer able to continue.


Let us know, we'll continue from there.


Cheer!
