Airpods connected once, now won't connect, keep flashing amber. Definitely charged! Any suggestions?

I have exactly the same problem. Did you solve it?

Forgot 3 steps. With the lid still closed:

- Turn the iPhone's bluetooth OFF and wait 30 sec

- Hold the button down for another 30 sec

- Turn the iPhone's bluetooth ON

Open the lid – problem solved!

If the case led stays white fixed while pressing the button, then most likely than not the AirPods are still paired to one of your devices. Make sure you unpair them on all your devices. You can also check via "find my iPhone" application on iOS devices or via iCloud.com on a computer if the AirPods are still paired to your iCloud account. Another thing you might try is check which one of the two doesn't get paired, and then put only that one in the case and keep pressing the pair button on the case while having your iPhone unlocked and nearby. This latter method helped me having back the left AirPod paired.

Yes I'll try to reset them out in the garden next 😉 ... I just realised they probably can't play a sound when in the case, so I took them out and only the left one started playing. So either this time the right one didn't get 'revived' or it had already died again. For sure no other device starts playing instead of the airpods.

If you can't set up your AirPods

If you don't see the setup animation when you try to set up your AirPods with your iPhone, follow these steps. After each step, try to set up your AirPods again.

1. Make sure that your AirPods are charged.
2. Close the lid, wait 15 seconds, then open the lid. The status light should flash white.
3. If the status light doesn't flash white, press and hold the setup button on the back of the case until you see the status light flash white.
4. Still can't set up your AirPods? Press and hold the setup button for at least 15 seconds, until you see the status light flash amber a few times and then flash white.

They have a one year warranty.

Same issue here.

This worked for me THANK YOU!!!

Thanks so much! I've been having issues with this all day! You saved me a trip to the Apple Store :)

I had this problem with my iPhone 6s just now. It worked to restart the phone.

Hello! Yes! Thank you, I tried all recommendation on the thread with no success. This one worked!!

Reset my iphone. Still did not work.

Did items 7-10 and they connected!

Thanks.

It worked for me. As soon as I tried to pair the single AirPod giving he connection issue, I got them both working again.

Thank you.
