AirTag Not Resetting
I have an AirTag that won't reset. I don't know the AppleID to which it's assigned (Not mine, my wife's, nor my daughter's who borrowed it but never used it) and followed the instructions on how to reset it. I hear the warbling sound every time I press down on the battery after pulling it out and putting it back in...but...the fifth sound which is supposed to be different than the previous four, sounds the same. The device comes back as still associated with another AppleID.
IS the device defective, or am I missing something? Thanks
