If you have an AirPods that was previously paired with iPhone, but you purchased a new MacBook and are willing to get it paired with your AirPods, the process you need to follow is much easier than connecting brand new AirPods devices. All you have to do is to maintain the same iCloud account you have on your iPhone with the MacBook. However, if your iPhone has multiple users or created another iCloud account on your MacBook, this connection process will not be possible. Hence, you need to go through another method. The steps you can follow are simple and straightforward. Each step is elucidated below.
1. Turn on your AirPods devices and fix them into your ears. Then turn on the MacBook.
2. Once you have turned on the MacBook, wait for it to load up so that you can access the macOS. Check through the menu bar situated at the right of the screen. There, you will see all settings and active connections of your MacBook. The Bluetooth setting is one of the settings available. It is represented with a small Bluetooth icon. The Bluetooth icon is located close to the Wi-Fi signal. Next, click the Bluetooth icon or the volume icon.
3. Now that you have tapped the Bluetooth icon to check the names displayed if your AirPods' name is there. If the name is there, you will definitely see it. Then it means that your MacBook has already recognized the AirPods. Then hit the devices and try to play a song. If you hear a loud and distinct sound that signifies your AirPods connected, you can be sure that connection is already established between your AirPods and the MacBook.
If you have just purchased brand new AirPods and have not connected them to an Apple device, including the MacBook, the steps that will be discussed in this section will be useful to you. The steps are simple and straightforward.
1. Turn on the MacBook and allow it to load to the macOS. Then open the System Preferences on the MacBook. You can do this by tapping the app's icon or hitting the Apple symbol at the top left of the screen. Navigate through the System Preference interface and tap the Bluetooth icon. Bluetooth is important in this setup. Hence, it must always be turned on.
2. Open the lid of the AirPods in the charging case.
3. Check the AirPods case for the button located at the bottom of the case. The button is used for setting up the device. Press the button so that it can turn on the Bluetooth of the AirPods. Once turned on, it will be sensed by devices closer to the AirPods. Check the device until it flashes white.
4. Check the Bluetooth section of the MacBook to see if the AirPods is among the list of recognized devices. You will see a blue icon beside them that tells you to connect. Hit the connect icon. Then play a sound to check if the AirPods are working.
