Hey Jackr23,


When you flip open the case and hold the back button the light turns white. However, you can not stop the white light flashing by pressing and holding the button again. When you have the case open with the flashing light, bring your AirPods next to your iPhone/iPad/Mac and a pop-up will appear to connect your AirPods.


You can see this Apple Support Document that talks more in depth of how to pair your AirPods: Pair AirPods (1st, 2nd, or 3rd generation) - Apple Support (IE)


Hope this helps! :D
