Hmm. They probably need to fix their documentation, because it suggests that the AirPods automatically figure out which device you want to use. thanks, Ricardo. Cheers, Donna > On Jun 8, 2017, at 8:16 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > > Hi Alex, > > You are correct. That’s how switching devices wi

I don't own AirPods yet, of course. That said, from what I've read, you switch to them like other headphones. The difference is you don't need to pair them. On the Watch, bring up Control Center, hit Airplay, and select them. On the Mac, they should live in your bluetooth menu and activate if yo

What I've read online suggests that they automatically figure out which device you are using, and pair with that device. Sounds like I may need to give a call to Apple support. I'll keep you posted. Cheers, Donna > On Jun 8, 2017, at 4:30 PM, Paul Mimms wrote: > > I can believe that this is h

I can believe that this is how they work. Otherwise, I can see walking around the house with an iPhone, and Apple Watch, going to my iPad, and have them switch to my Mac.! :-) Let's keep in touch as we work this out. Life is 10% what happens, and how you take it, and 90% what you do about it,

Hey Paul, Pressing Connect in the bluetooth menu did get them to switch from my phone to my Mac, but now they won't switch back to my phone unless I manually go in and switch them.. If that's the way they're supposed to work, that's fine, but I thought they could switch without the user having

Try going into Bluetooth on the particular device, and you should see the AirPods there and tap on it to pair. Life is 10% what happens, and how you take it, and 90% what you do about it, and what you make of it. Sent from my iPhone 7 Plus > On Jun 8, 2017, at 9:48 AM, Donna Goodin wrote: >

Hi all, My understanding was that the AirPods are supposed to automatically pair with any device that is connected to iCloud, and automatically switch to the device that you are using. I have not been able to get them to play with either my watch or my Mac. How do I do this? TIA, Donna -- T
