Whether you want to enjoy music on your MacBook or hear your colleagues on a Zoom call, Apple’s AirPods line are award-winning entertainment and productivity earbuds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But of course, to get the most out of your AirPods<\/a><\/strong>, AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max, you need to know how to pair them with your MacBook. The good news is this easy-to-follow tutorial will teach you how. In fact, there are multiple ways to connect them. Without further ado, here’s how to connect AirPods to your Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to connect AirPods to Mac
If you’re using AirPods, make sure your Mac has macOS Mojave 10.14.4 or later. AirPods Pro require macOS Catalina 10.15.1 or later. It’s also worth noting that if you’ve already set up your AirPods with your iPhone, and your MacBook is signed into iCloud with the same Apple ID, chances are your AirPods are ready to go with your MacBook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow the step-by-step guide below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. If your AirPods<\/a><\/strong> are connected to the same Apple ID as your MacBook and have been set up with your iPhone, open the lid on the case next to your Mac.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Your Mac will detect your AirPods and automatically connect to your MacBook. You can go into the sound settings and toggle it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. If they don’t connect automatically, click the Bluetooth icon in the top bar of your MacBook.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Click on AirPods in the list of Bluetooth devices.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    If they’re not connected to anything and you’re starting over, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Open the AirPods<\/a><\/strong> charging case next to your Mac.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Go to System Settings. This can be found in your taskbar, or by clicking the Apple logo in the upper left corner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Scroll down to Nearby devices and tap your AirPods.
      look! Now you can enjoy your newly connected AirPods on your MacBook, listening to any music you want. Wondering how to connect AirPods to a Windows PC? We’ve got you covered.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
