My apple airpods won't pair with my windows surface. How do I do this? Yes, I've turned off the laptop, turn on and off bluetooth

AirPods paired but won't connect.

Hi,



Thank you for replying.



I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned below and see if that helps:

1. Press Windows Logo key + X, and select
   Device Manager.
   
2. Expand, Human Interface Devices.
   
3. Look for AirPods Audio/Video Remote Control HID and
   AirPods Hands-Free Call Control HID, right click on each entry and select
   Properties.
   
4. Go to the Power Management Tab, clear the checkbox for
   Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
   
5. Also, repeat step 4 for Bluetooth Low Energy GATT compliant HID.
   
6. Click on OK.
   

Let us know how it goes.

Airpods will pair with laptop (windows 10, Lenovo X-1) but cannot be connected to as a sound device. Have reinstalled Bluetooth driver (Intel), removed and reinstalled the airpods, all to no avail. Any assistance is appreciated.
