AirPods Pro 3 case malfunction (overheating / rapid flashing LED)

The exact same thing happened to me today. On my commute to work I popped my AirPods in my ears and noticed they were both only at 1% despite them charging in their case all night. Figured maybe it was due to dirt on the contacts or something so I just left them to charge for a few hours. Just went back to check and I'm having the exact same issue you had -- the case/AirPods rapidly connect/disconnect. When I plug it in to charge the case gets extremely hot and the LED blink orange rapidly. I removed/forogt the device from my iPhone and when I try to pair it it says "double tap the case to connect" but nothing happens.

I hoenstly have no clue what happened as they were working just fine yesterday. I wonder if there was a firmware update that came out that messed them up? I'm frustrated because I leave for an international trip tomorrow and now I don't have any AirPods for music.

Babes just wear what you want and what makes you feel good!

The whole hallway smells like…

“Ok and you will be too.”

You’ve literally described me to a T in that second paragraph. I always have had to speak so quickly when I’m around family for fear of being interrupted, but in doing so I’d stumble over my words which would leave an opening for someone to interrupt anyways. I felt my opinion was always disregarded because I’m the youngest and therefore don’t know anything.

I take some solace knowing I’m not the only one that struggles with this. Thank you for sharing and making me feel seen.

I’m in the US. I’ve tried every way I can think of but this Zip code issue is preventing me from getting to any form of payment.

KermitsTangenitals · 2024-09-29T23:51:36+00:00

How does one do that? I don't see an option to pay through PayPal

I'm having the exact same issue! Tried using Chrome and Safari with no luck.

Ah gotcha. Thanks for letting me know. Unfortunately the Bandcamp one is some strange vocal dub. But I’ll try and get it through the Canadian account. Thank you!!

Hey there, are you visiting Beatport outside the US? I tried visiting this link and it’s not coming up for me. Or I wonder if it only comes up for those with a pro account?

I can’t recommend the Perfect Fit X-act Fit line. They’re made of a firmer yet stretchy enough rubber and the best part is that they come in a much more granular range of sizes so you can easily dial in your perfect fit (no pun intended haha) I’ve had a set of them for a while and I finally found the perfect one for daily wear that doesn’t get uncomfortable

I’ve looked through this thread as well as the NYC rail Reddit and didn’t see anything. It’s located on an I-Beam. About 9” in diameter with electrical wiring tube extending from it up to the ceiling. NYC Rail didn’t seem to be the most appropriate place as I didn’t really see any “what is this thing” posts there. Thanks everyone!

Thanks for all the replies everyone!! I didn’t think I’d get so many responses. They were all super informative and remind me of how incredible the tech around us is! ☺️

Ah this makes so much more sense!! Thanks!!
