I have airpods pro gen 1 that i have had for about 2 weeks, i got my first iphone (15 pro) and everytine i try to connect them it shows "connection failed" I have been able to pair them to older iphones such as 12 and 14. I also tried to connect them to ny brothers iphone 15 pro and it said the same thing. Any ideas???
iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17
Got the same issue. Just bought the fresh 15 pro max and it won't connect to my airpods pro 2. "connection failed" over and over. the buds are easily connectable to the older iphone models. idk why, that's sad
Okay I have been through almost everything you could imagine with my AirPods Max. I love them but wow it is frustrating. I thought I would share I trick I happened to do by accident 6 months ago when they were inoperable for a week. If you have a second set of Bluetooth headphones connect to them and start playing a song in Apple Music. Once it’s playing tap on the Bluetooth.AirPlay button on the mini player or in the app. It the thing that is a top side of a circle with a triangle at the bottom. Hit the share audio button, which will put you phone or device into discovery for a “new” device. Happened to trick my set and allow me to connect long enough for mine to get paired again. Hope this helps, ohh and punching them when they are on your head , hurts - not recommended. Ha Ohh a don’t connect them directly to televisions which are not secure. 👋
This fix worked great. My AirPods are super old and I just purchased the 15 max pro and they wouldn’t connect. I followed the instructions, the white light flashed on the pods, I had to forget the device , turn Bluetooth off and on then my phone discovered the AirPods and connected like they were a new device. Thanks for posting the instructions!
I spoke to someone from Apple yesterday, and they informed me that the airpods pro generation 1 are only compatible with iPhone generations from SE to iPhone 13. So basically, if you have a newer iPhone, you have to buy the new airpods.

Yea, resetting isn’t working. Seems like quite a few people are having this issue so hopefully apple fixes this.
I’ve got the same issue. Keep getting the connection failed message with the red X. I’ve reset them twice already. Still connects to everyone else in my household’s phones. Not my new iPhone 15 pro.
exactly my problem.
My problem too with my wife’s new phone, AirPods connect to my phone and her old phone, other headset will connect to her phone so don’t know what’s wrong
yuuup. same here. so disappointed with this phone. fix this issue. i’ve already reset and reconnected about 3x a day for the last four days. this is ridiculous.
I’m having the same issue. Has anyone seen a fix?
I have iPhone 15 pro max and it’s not working. I’ve tried everything.
Oh Geeze, hope this is fixed. I am waiting on my new Iphone 15 pro max, but may be sending it back if this is not remedied.
not fixed. this phones got a whole lotta issues. wish I wasn’t out of my return window.
check the firmware level of your AirPods. If its 5b59 then it will need updating
how did you check the firmware level ?
airpods wont connect to iphone 15 pro
