Deleted Apple ID?

My AirPod Pros (gen 2) was connected to one of my old Apple IDs, that Apple ID was deleted however the AirPods are still connected to that account’s ‘find my’ service.

Is there any way to remove the AirPods from that account after it has been deleted?

Thank you in advance <3

Can't connect AirPods Pro2 to FindMy I received a gift of AirPods Pro2 and I they don't show up in my FindMy app. Also, when I first start and pair them to either my I-pad or phone, they have another person's name already there. I have changed the name and reset them to no avail. After resetting and pairing again, the other person's name comes back up. Is there a way to wipe the AirPods out of someone else's Apple account, or should I return them and get another new set?

How can I permanently remove lost AirPods Pro from Apple Account? I lost a pair of AirPods Pro that are still appearing in my Find My devices list. I’ve attempted to remove them multiple times using both the Find My app and iCloud.com, but they keep reappearing shortly after. They are not connected to any of my devices via Bluetooth anymore, and I’ve already removed them from all paired device lists. I understand that the device needs to be offline to remove it, and it is, but the option either doesn’t appear or the removal doesn’t stick. I’m trying to permanently remove this lost pair from my Apple ID and iCloud account so they no longer appear in my Find My app. Can you confirm if there’s a way to permanently remove lost and offline AirPods Pro from my Apple ID, even if they never come online again? And if not, can this be escalated or manually removed from your end? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

If you can't remove the device or item and unpair it from an Apple ID you should reset it.

I saw that section of the article, but it says later in that section that it still will not connect to a separate Apple ID.

”If you want to use AirPods (3rd generation) or AirPods Pro (1st or 2nd generation) that someone else has used, they first need to remove the AirPods from their Apple ID.”
