If the AirPods are not seated correctly in the charging case, they will not charge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Another common cause of the orange light on AirPods is a low or dead charging case battery. The charging case needs to have enough charge to charge the AirPods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If your AirPods are not charging, the issue could be with the charging cable or port. Try using a different Lightning cable or a different charging port to rule out these issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If your AirPods still won’t charge, the issue could be with the firmware.

There could be a problem with the charging case or the AirPods themselves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Now that we know the potential causes of the orange light on AirPods let’s explore some practical solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n The first step to fixing the AirPods not charging issue is to ensure that the AirPods are correctly placed in the charging case. You need to make sure that the AirPods are seated correctly in the charging case and that the charging case lid is closed correctly. The charging pins on the AirPods and the charging case should line up correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n To ensure that your AirPods are placed correctly in the charging case, make sure that:<\/span><\/p>\n If your AirPods are not charging even after correcting the placement, move on to the next step.<\/span><\/p>\n If the orange light on the AirPods persists even after checking the placement, you should check the charging case battery. Make sure that the charging case is charged by connecting it to a power source using the Lightning cable that came with the AirPods.<\/span><\/p>\n To check the charging case battery level:<\/span><\/p>\n If your AirPods still won’t charge after charging the case, move on to the next step.<\/span><\/p>\n If the AirPods are correctly placed in the charging case and the charging case is charged, but the orange light still appears, it may indicate a problem with the charging cable or port. Try using a different Lightning cable or a different charging port to rule out these issues.<\/span><\/p>\n Also, make sure that the charging port is clean and free of debris. If there is debris in the charging port, it can prevent the charging cable from making a proper connection.<\/span><\/p>\n If using a different cable or port doesn’t work, move on to the next step.<\/span><\/p>\n If the above solutions don’t work, you should try resetting your AirPods. To reset the AirPods, put them in the charging case, and press and hold the setup button (the small button on the back of the charging case) until the status light flashes amber. Then, connect your AirPods to your device and check if the issue is resolved.<\/span><\/p>\n If the AirPods still won’t charge after resetting them, you may need to update the firmware.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If updating the firmware doesn’t work, move on to the next step.<\/span><\/p>\n If you’ve tried all the above solutions and your AirPods are still not charging, it may indicate a hardware issue. In this case, you should contact Apple Support. They can help diagnose the problem and provide solutions or repairs as necessary. You can visit the Apple Support website, schedule an appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support via phone or email.<\/span><\/p>\n The orange light on AirPods can indicate several issues, including improper placement, low or dead charging case battery, charging cable or port issues, firmware issues, or hardware issues. Try the above solutions to see if they work for you. By following these steps, you can enjoy your AirPods’ great sound quality and convenience for a long time to come.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AirPods are a popular accessory that offers convenience, mobility, and great sound quality.
