Someone makes a lanyard that has cups that the stem of the air pods fit 
into. In this way if they fall they don't go far.

  I upgraded my Airrpods last week and although they work well, I definitely 
wouldn’t dare try to use them outdoors as they only just fit in my ears.

  Apple does sell the same basic earbuds with a USB connector instead of a 
lightning connector if that is of any interest.

RE: 3RD GENERATION AirPODS

2023-11-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
And for every negative review of any product I can find you a positive review. 
Having said that, there is no product Apple makes (apart from their laptop and 
desktop computers) I am less interested in than their Airpods. I don't like 
things stuck in my ear canal and for $29.99 you can give me a set of wired 
Earpods any day, they work, they actually sound good, I don't have to charge 
them every few hours and I can't easily loose them. And they also let me put 
them just lightly into the outer area of my ear so I can hear everything around 
me just fine. Lastly, I don't experience any lag when typing and please don't 
tell me there is no lag with Airpods because I tried them in the Apple Store 
and there definitely is, there is no Bluetooth headset in existance which has 
no lag at all, at least not yet.

3RD GENERATION AirPODS

2023-11-10 Thread CJ & AA MAY
I upgraded my Airrpods last week and although they work well, I definitely 
wouldn’t dare try to use them outdoors as they only just fit in my ears.

Apple does sell the same basic earbuds with a USB connector instead of a 
lightning connector if that is of any interest.

Hi all,

I’m looking for wired earbuds that have either the same design as the Apple 
earpods or the traditional earbuds where the part that went into your ear is 
hard and not the interchangeable ear tips.

 

Any links appreciated.

Re: AirPods Pro Audio Question

Well,

This is very interesting.

I am also running Parallels on my Mac.  The audio goes to mono only when I load 
JAWS inside the parallel VM.  If I don’t run JAWS, then the Mac audio works 
fine, even with Narrator.

I can’t say why they are in Mono. But I can say I had issues with my M1 MacBook 
Pro and the Air Pod Pro 2 USB C edition. I’m using them just fine on the 14 Pro 
Max but I am no longer using them with the Mac. Audio kept losing voiceover and 
I would have to shut the Mac down to get it back.

Hi,

I bought Apple AirPod Pro Second Edition headphones recently and when I connect 
them to my iPhone 15 they sound good. When I connect them to an M1 MacBook Air, 
I’m only getting mono audio. I wonder if anyone has ideas why the audio isn’t

Siri has separate volume for speaker and headset, just ask Siri something which 
results in a longer answer and once Siri is speaking raise the volume on your 
headset and Siri should become louder.

Hi,

I've had this problem for quite a while now. When I'm listening to some media 
through my airPods and a text comes in I can hardly hear siri when he reads the 
text. The media volume is normal and when the airPods are disconnected siri's 
volume is also normal. Has anyone seen this?

I feel like it started the iOS16 cycle but I can't be sure exactly when. More 
importantly, is there a fix?

Thanks

Re: Siri volume very low when wearing airPods

2023-09-08 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi Kimberly,

I would suggest engaging Siri while you are wearing AirPods, such as asking for 
a weather forecast, and turning up the volume while Siri is speaking. I hope 
that will fix the problem.

Best,
Anna

Siri volume very low when wearing airPods

2023-09-08 Thread Kimberly Gardner
Hi,

I've had this problem for quite a while now. When I'm listening to
some media through my airPods and a text comes in I can hardly hear
siri when he reads the text. The media volume is normal and when the
airPods are disconnected siri's volume is also normal. Has anyone seen
this?

I feel like it started the iOS16 cycle but I can't be sure exactly
when. More importantly, is there a fix?

Thanks

RE: Has Anyone Managed to Seamlessly and Consistently have VoiceOver Audio Switch Between Apple Watch and iPhone, via AirPods?

2023-07-15 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
And this sort of seamless switching is what I would absolutely expect from any 
Apple Airpods because according to Apple they are the best and m ost advanced 
Bluetooth headphones ever and yet this works with my Plantronics Voyager and 
apparently it still does not work with Airpods after how many years now?

Subject: Has Anyone Managed to Seamlessly and Consistently have VoiceOver Audio 
Switch Between Apple Watch and iPhone, via AirPods?

Hello Everyone,

As the subject indicates, my question is:
Has anyone managed to seamlessly and consistently have VoiceOver audio switch 
between Apple Watch and iPhone, via AirPods?

I would think it an easy proposition to hear VoiceOver audio in my Airpods when 
I use either the phone or the watch; yet, I cannot seem to manage to get it to 
work.

Here is how it would look:  

With VoiceOver enabled on both my iPhone and Apple watch I:

1.
Place my Airpods in my ears.

2.
Touch the screen of my iPhone and hear VoiceOver audio feedback through the 
Airpods.

3.
Touch the display screen of my Apple watch and hear VoiceOver audio feedback 
through the Airpods.

4.
Touch the screen of my iPhone and hear VoiceOver audio feedback through the 
Airpods.

That's all, nothing more.

As you may recall, I enjoyed such a scenario for a few years a good while back, 
via a third-party Bluetooth headset until Apple, in its infinite wisdom, broke 
the feature.

All replies greatly appreciated,

Mark

2023-07-14 Thread M. Taylor
Thank you for the reply, Julian.

I feel much, much better, now.  I was beginning to think that I was doing 
something wrong.

Also, thank you for confirming 2 brands of products that can still accomplish 
VoiceOver audio switching between the phone and the watch.

I have really resisted using third-party headsets as I do so love my Airpods.

Again, thank you.

Hi Mark,

Unfortunately, this is clearly bad implementation on the part of Apple. It 
bewilders me to know end that having control of the entire chain, they cannot 
get multipoint connection to work as expected between an iPhone, an Apple 
Watch, and AirPods. there are myriad third-party headsets that handle this just 
fine, including the under $30 pair that I occasionally use. Any Plantronics or 
Blue Parrot headset also does this quite well. I hope that in the future Apple 
is finally able to get its act together and make this work the way it's 
supposed to.

Cannot Start or Stop Alexa Assistive Reader Playback using Earpods or Airpods Manual Controls

2023-04-10 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

Recently, I have discovered that I cannot start or stop Alexa reading a
Kindle book on iPhone using either my Ear Pod or Air Pod manual controls.
Also, the VoiceOver magic tap will no longer start or stop playback, either.

Has anyone encountered this?

Steps to reproduce:

1.
With either Apple Earpods or Airpods connected to iPhone, open the Alexa
app.

2.
Using either voice commands or on-screen controls, get Alexa to begin
reading a Kindle book title.

3.
Now, try to stop /pause playback of the title by either using the magic tap,
the play / pause button on the wired Earpods, or by hand gestures on the
Airpods.  

Unlike in previous versions of Alexa, none of them work.

All replies greatly appreciated.

And why anybody would want to be seenn walking around with such a huge headset 
out in public is beyond my understanding. Not saying this justifies them 
getting it snatched, but of course given the noise cancellation feature the

NYC thieves stealing Apple headphones off victims' heads

By Associated Press
February 26, 2023 at 11:43 a.m. EST


NEW YORK — Listen up! At least 21 people in New York City have had their fancy 
Apple headphones stolen right off their heads by a roving team of moped-riding 
bandits, police say.
The thefts started on Jan. 28 and have typically involved four people on two 
mopeds riding up to victims from behind, snatching their Apple AirPods Max 
headphones and then speeding off. The noise-canceling devices currently retail 
for $549 a piece.

The sonic swipers have struck all over Manhattan, including one incident in 
Central Park, with victims ranging in age from 18 to 41, police said. The bulk 
of the thefts happened in mid-to-late afternoon. Five headphones were stolen on 
Feb. 8 and eight were taken on Feb. 18.
The thieves remain at large, and no arrests have been made.
Police this week released a photo of suspects riding mopeds and a video showing 
one of them getting off a moped carrying two AirPod Max headphones and walking 
into Washington Square Park.
Unlike AirPods and AirPods Pro, which are small and fit inside the ear, AirPods 
Max headphones rest over the ears and have an adjustable headband connecting 
the right and left sides.

The thefts started on Jan. 28 and have typically involved four people on two 
mopeds riding up to victims from behind, snatching their Apple AirPods Max 
headphones and then speeding off. The noise-canceling devices currently retail 
for $549 a piece.

The sonic swipers have struck all over Manhattan, including one incident in 
Central Park, with victims ranging in age from 18 to 41, police said. The bulk 
of the thefts happened in mid-to-late afternoon. Five headphones were stolen on 
Feb. 8 and eight were taken on Feb. 18.
The thieves remain at large, and no arrests have been made.
Police this week released a photo of suspects riding mopeds and a video showing 
one of them getting off a moped carrying two AirPod Max headphones and walking 
into Washington Square Park.
Unlike AirPods and AirPods Pro, which are small and fit inside the ear, AirPods 
Max headphones rest over the ears and have an adjustable headband connecting 
the right and left sides.

AirPods Pro (2nd generation) & Facebook Messenger

2023-02-21 Thread Katrina Anderson
Although my AirPods Pro (2nd Generation), work great for most things in
Facebook Messenger, recently I experienced audio switching from my AirPods
to the phone's speaker when starting a voice recording in the iPhone's
Facebook Messenger app.  I removed the pods and reinserted them; still on
speaker.  In settings, I searched for "microphone"; it led me to privacy and
security.  It shows microphone is on for Messenger.  I couldn't find
settings involving the microphone elsewhere.  Perhaps I should be looking
for a different setting not related to the microphone.  Any thoughts?

This should work whether they are plugged in or not. While they are in the 
case, hold the case near the back of your phone, and open it. A dialogue should 
pop up, telling the charge level of your airpods and the case.

Are my airPods charging? How to tell

2022-12-15 Thread Kimberly Gardner
Hello,

As a blind person, is there any way for me to tell whether my airPods
are charging? When I look at them under settings all I see is the
status at the time I plugged them in. I'm guessing there's a light on
the case, but is there some other way to know?

Thanks

Thank you for those clear directions. This has fixed the problem, though I did 
need to repeat the process when playing a file in Dropbox. I’m not sure if this 
is because you can choose to have that mode on or off on a per-app basis or 
not. Regardless, I know how to fix this issue now.

Hi Richard,
I think they are talking about voiceover being heard and stereo rather than 
audio playback. It cuts in and out doing this on the AirPods too. Hope this 
helps.

RE: Fake stereo mode on Airpods Pro 2?

2022-10-30 Thread Richard Turner
Oops!  About the Control Center, that should have been a swipe up with three 
fingers after touching the status bar.
Here are the directions again for turning it off, only correctly given.
To turn off Spatialized Stereo:
Start something playing like a BARD book.
Pause it.
Bring up the Control Center, either sliding down from the top with one finger 
to the first vibration and lift or touch the status bar and then swipe up with 
three fingers.
Find the Volume button on the Control Center and do either a one finger triple 
tap or a one finger double tap and hold.  This brings up the context menu.
Find Spatialized Stereo and double tap to turn it off.

Now, you will have your standard mono sound with BARD books again.

It is not a bug.
It is called Spatialized Stereo, which is different than Spatial Audio in that 
it is an attempt to create a stereo sound out of a mono source.

Hi,

I experience the same thing when using my iPhone 12 mini with hearing aids. 
It’s very uncomfortable since VO is less distinct and less clear. Yes, just 
like a fake stereo chorus effect.

Fake stereo mode on Airpods Pro 2?

2022-10-29 Thread Matthew Bullis
I just upgraded from the second generation Airpods to the Pro second generation 
which just came out, because my Airpods I’ve had for three years died. When 
playing a Bard book, or any other mono source, I would describe the audio as  
kind of a fake stereo with slight echo. It should sound like it's coming 
directly in the middle of my head, but it's spread out like it's a stereo file. 
I originally had the spatial audio on, but that made the voice move when I 
moved my head, and I didn’t like that. Once I turned that off, the moving 
stopped, but this fake stereo is still here. Is there a setting I can change, 
or is this just how these earbuds render the audio?
Thanks,
Matthew

Go into Settings -> Bluetooth and find your Airpod Pros. Flick down to more 
information and double tap. Here you'll be able to change some configuration 
settings including what you can do with each bud.

The cable is a USB-C cable. You can buy the block for eight off of Amazon for I 
believe about 30 bucks for a pack of three.

RE: I don't know how to charge my airpods pro 2nd gen

2022-09-23 Thread Kevin Minor
Hi Kim.

I don't know what kind of charging cable the airpods come with, but if it's 
like what Apple has done with other cables, such as for the apple watch and 
iPhone, it now uses a USB C connector to get power. It's a smaller USB 
connector, and won't fit into the larger ones. The larger connectors on 
computers a few years old are USB A. Apple and other manufacturers have 
switched to C. If I'm right, you'll need something to either plug into the wall 
to charge them, or Amazon sells a USB A to USB C adaptor.

I learned all this the hard way with my Apple Watch charging cable that I got. 
Wish Apple would have let people know this.

Have a blessed day and don't work too hard.

Kevin, Valerie and Jilly

RE: airpods pro not working

2022-06-22 Thread chrisjudge1967
I have the AirPods pro and experience similar issues from time to time. There 
are also times when my left airpod won’t connect but taking it out and putting 
it back in a few times usually helps.

Ive had this same problem for years, on and off! I try turning Bluetooth off 
and on again and if that doesn’t work, go to Bluetooth in Settings, tap on 
AirPods Pro and then select Forget This Device. Reboot iPhone.  Then pair 
again. It works for a while - and tgen the connectivity problems start again. 
And round you go!

RE: A reason not to spend the big Bucks for Apple Airpods including Airpod Max or at least not yet

2022-01-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
The Airpods Max here in Canada are $779 + taxes, since in Ontario you have 15% 
HST that means you would pay $ 895.85 for them.
The Airpods Pro are $329 + taxes and the Airpods Third Gen are $239 + taxes, 
still 274.85.

I also agree with that as well and speeking as a Canadion yes I agree it does 
cost more hear in Canada then it does in the US. And let's also bring in to the 
situation those of us who live on fixt incomes like Ontario Disibillidey 
support and live on like my self 700 a month for paying bills etc oncemy rent 
is taken off. Yes I know that we have a lot more to live on but I am strickley 
talking about the amount in the bank that we have to play around with once the 
rent is taken off of my check every month since it is taken off automatically. 
So for instince I have never had enough to pay for a IPhone out right so I am 
stuck paying off a phone on a 2 year contract the same go's forajy other apple 
products like the apple watch for example. Shure you can get one for 0 dollars 
down but you still have to pay it off over the years. It would be nice if 
programs hear in Ontario like the assistive divices program would support the 
purchis of different apple products like the apple watch Iphone, etc. in fact I 
filld out a servay that made that idea. My point is that I agree what people 
choose or not choose to spend there oney on is there choice how ever not 
everyone has the funds to upgrade to the latest and gratest every year or what 
have you. For instince I am still using the Iphone 8 and it is still holding up 
verry well. Could I upgrade? Yes of korce I could and I might or I might just 
wate. But for instince the air pods wile I like the idea of beaing whierless 
and having bluetuth on my phone I don't lissen to music will going out for 
walks and stuff so to me the idea of just whired ear buds are just fine. How 
ever I am happy to hear that they are only 200 instead of the 700 or what I 
thought they would be. From Mich Verrier from New Liskeard Ontario Canada.

I  agree with that, but it also depends on whether you are talking about 
technology which is what I would call essential and technology which is less 
so. I need my iPhone for many things every day so it better be in top shape, 
but while for me a set of wired Earbuds are essential, a $700 Bluetooth headset 
like the Airpods Max is luxury and before all of you south of the border inform 
me that it is only $549 or whatever it costs there, I am talking about our 
currency.
Anyways, it's like with everything, people decide what they need and what they 
want and spend their money accordingly.

True, everything will be better in a year or two but then that's a year or two 
I'll be using even older technology while I keep waiting. I'm not saying people 
should never wait. It obviously depends on how long you'd be waiting and how 
unhappy you are with what you have now. I tend to keep my technology for quite 
a while, but I don't wait as long as I used to. I held on to my iPhone 4S 
forever because I kept thinking if I just wait another six months, I'll see 
what Samsung has to offer and then six months after that Apple will have some 
new iPhones out and so on. By the time I pulled the trigger I was using a 
device I was pretty unhappy with and that hadn't been getting IOS updates for a 
while.

A statement which very rarely applies to technology because whatever passes me 
by will be better in a year or two.
A good example would be the Airpods, if I wanted to buy a set I'd much rather 
buy them now than when they first came out 4 or whatever years ago because I 
know I'd be replacing them by now.

Well I have been saying this for many months now. A complete waste of money in

headsets in terms of not updating to the latest protocol.

Here is an interesting article which shows how limited Bluetooth connectivity 
is and that includes the ultra high priced Airpods Max headphones:

Ambitions<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/ap/x-59584e83/?url=https%3A%2F%2Foutdooressentials-my.sharepoint.com%2Fpersonal%2Finfo_bvoutdoors_com%2FDocuments%2FDryshod%2520November%2520Order%2520with%2520Changes.xlsx%3Fweb%3D1=04%7C01%7C%7Cc21cdfb1ad6c40a84b0008d9cc559d3b%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637765490350148016%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000=xvOVmZHLO%2FfGWxZbvBTnMr6TomYCZDlhYo9pZT1hvM4%3D=0>

So, I'll continue to wait for a Sonos headset which will of course add the 
headset to my existing Sonos system via Wi-Fi and will be able to provide true 
lossless quality sound and most likely for less than what the Airpods Max dcost.

I use my bose NC700 headphones.  They sound very good to me.  I've
been using a set of anker headphones lately, and they also work very
well when listening to audio dramas, or bard books.  It all depends on
what you can afford.  I'm not saying that I'd never purchase a pair of
airpods max, but they are offly expensive.  However, I found some very
good deals on Ebay.

stuck paying off a phone on a 2 year contract the same go's forajy other apple 
products like the apple watch for example. Shure you can get one for 0 dollars 
down but you still have to pay it off over the years. It would be nice if 
programs hear in Ontario like the assistive divices program would support the 
purchis of different apple products like the apple watch Iphone, etc. in fact I 
filld out a servay that made that idea. My point is that I agree what people 
choose or not choose to spend there oney on is there choice how ever not 
everyone has the funds to upgrade to the latest and gratest every year or what 
have you. For instince I am still using the Iphone 8 and it is still holding up 
verry well. Could I upgrade? Yes of korce I could and I might or I might just 
wate. But for instince the air pods wile I like the idea of beaing whierless 
and having bluetuth on my phone I don't lissen to music will going out for 
walks and stuff so to me the idea of just whired ear buds are just fine. How 
ever I am happy to hear that they are only 200 instead of the 700 or what I 
thought they would be. From Mich Verrier from New Liskeard Ontario Canada.

I  agree with that, but it also depends on whether you are talking about 
technology which is what I would call essential and technology which is less 
so. I need my iPhone for many things every day so it better be in top shape, 
but while for me a set of wired Earbuds are essential, a $700 Bluetooth headset 
like the Airpods Max is luxury and before all of you south of the border inform 
me that it is only $549 or whatever it costs there, I am talking about our 
currency.
Anyways, it's like with everything, people decide what they need and what they 
want and spend their money accordingly.

True, everything will be better in a year or two but then that's a year or two 
I'll be using even older technology while I keep waiting. I'm not saying people 
should never wait. It obviously depends on how long you'd be waiting and how 
unhappy you are with what you have now. I tend to keep my technology for quite 
a while, but I don't wait as long as I used to. I held on to my iPhone 4S 
forever because I kept thinking if I just wait another six months, I'll see 
what Samsung has to offer and then six months after that Apple will have some 
new iPhones out and so on. By the time I pulled the trigger I was using a 
device I was pretty unhappy with and that hadn't been getting IOS updates for a 
while.

A statement which very rarely applies to technology because whatever passes me 
by will be better in a year or two.
A good example would be the Airpods, if I wanted to buy a set I'd much rather 
buy them now than when they first came out 4 or whatever years ago because I 
know I'd be replacing them by now.

True, and a very good point. This is why I don't presume to tell people what 
they should or shouldn't do and whether a particular product is worth the money 
or not. In addition to not knowing what other people's financial situation is, 
I also don't know how important different features are to someone and how much 
they're willing to pay for it.

2022-01-01 Thread 'Mervin Keck III' via VIPhone
I like the Sony WH1000XM4. It is very comfortable. Has great sound. Normally 
retails for $349 US. However, I got a Black Friday deal for two of them for my 
wife and I. They were $100 off for several weeks over the holidays.

2022-01-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain
True, everything will be better in a year or two but then that's a year or two 
I'll be using even older technology while I keep waiting. I'm not saying people 
should never wait. It obviously depends on how long you'd be waiting and how 
unhappy you are with what you have now. I tend to keep my technology for quite 
a while, but I don't wait as long as I used to. I held on to my iPhone 4S 
forever because I kept thinking if I just wait another six months, I'll see 
what Samsung has to offer and then six months after that Apple will have some 
new iPhones out and so on. By the time I pulled the trigger I was using a 
device I was pretty unhappy with and that hadn't been getting IOS updates for a 
while.

RE: A reason not to spend the big Bucks for Apple Airpods including Airpod Max or at least not yet

2021-12-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
There have been rumors for quite some time, but earlier this year they 
apparently showed off something at a tech show in Germany and if you Google 
"When will Sonos release a headset" or something like that you find a lot of 
articles from reputable sources where it was expected this would happen in 
2021, but unless they'll make an announcement in the next 49 minutes it will be 
2022 if at all.

Sonos headphones, well I’m in to Sonos so deep I would have to purchase a pair.
Are their rumors that Sonos is planning to release a head set?

This probably goes without saying, but I wasn’t saying that anyone shouldn’t 
have a pair of Sonos headsets. I’ve always been intrigued with Sonos myself, 
and if I already had an investment in the Sonos system then I’m sure I’d be all 
over these headsets. This doesn’t mean I would ever regret the last 18 months 
I’ve had with myh AirPod Pros though.

Christopher,

Your right there is argument for waiting and or not waiting,

I’ve got airpods pro and bose frames
But if sonos bring out a pair of real over the head headphones,
Depending on the price,
I’ll go there without waiting.

Sonos are an audio company
Apple make tech devices and are very good at it,

My sound system within my house is sonos,
Why should I not have a set of sonos headphones.

Obviously there’s nothing wrong with waiting, and I’m sure the Sonos headset 
will be the bomb, but if I hadn’t gotten my AirPod Pros over a year ago then 
that would have been over 12 months I’d been without my AirPod Pros. I’m not 
saying the AirPod Pros are perfect or that everyone should run out and buy a 
pair, but I’m just saying there’s also a cost for waiting.

Here is an interesting article which shows how limited Bluetooth connectivity 
is and that includes the ultra high priced Airpods Max headphones:

[​xlsx icon] Bluetooth Is Holding Back Apple’s AirPods 
Ambitions<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/ap/x-59584e83/?url=https%3A%2F%2Foutdooressentials-my.sharepoint.com%2Fpersonal%2Finfo_bvoutdoors_com%2FDocuments%2FDryshod%2520November%2520Order%2520with%2520Changes.xlsx%3Fweb%3D1=04%7C01%7C%7C6e4c52b2ea5d490c39d608d9cc49b106%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637765439141460686%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000=cccWjBC9%2BIM%2BnqYjOEBvbr%2B02LqUOtkzu7eWBo7bUeo%3D=0>

So, I'll continue to wait for a Sonos headset which will of course add the 
headset to my existing Sonos system via Wi-Fi and will be able to provide true 
lossless quality sound and most likely for less than what the Airpods Max dcost.

First, Mary, The batteries can be replaced when they die; or at least that is 
my understanding.
Second, Joshuah, I'm sure if you got an Apple Card you could pay them off in 
time.
If people think Sonos will come out with a pair of headphones for less; I will 
be surprised if they do and if their batery is driving Wi-Fi and bluetooth, who 
knows what that will look like.
I'm quite happy with my purchase.
But, to each his/her own.

The airpods max are just way to much money.  I've spent $300 on
headphones before, but that was because I could pay them off in
payments.  I don't think I could do that with the airpods max.

Re: A reason not to spend the big Bucks for Apple Airpods including Airpod Max or at least not yet

2021-12-31 Thread Mary Otten
I also agree. The AirPods max are really good. My concern about them is the 
same as my concern about any other high-end earphone which depends on 
batteries. Batteries die. That’s also a problem with high-end Bluetooth 
speakers, like my beloved HomePods which Apple no longer makes. I remember the 
days when you would have a pair of headphones are excellent speakers for a 
decade or more. But that won’t be happening now because of the built-in 
obsolescence due to these damn batteries. That is a problem.

I totally agree with Richard. I just got my AirPod max for Christmas. I think 
they sound absolutely awesome. There is no lag. And they have solved the 
sleeping issues. I think the noise canceling is probably better on the AirPod 
max in the balls. Also, the design of the ear cup is really pretty flat so as a 
side sleeper no problem at all. I absolutely love them the sounds great and now

Ed, I agree 100% I'm coming up on a year with the Airpods Max and do not plan 
to look for any other headset for music/movies.
I've never heard anything so good and you are right on concerning the issue of

I have the AirPods Max headphones, and the sound quality is amazing.

The funny thing about audio is it is very subjective and a pair of headphones 
that sound good to me will not sound good to the person next to me. I 
personally don’t believe the price for the headphones was a waist of money, 
they sound great and I’m happy with them. They are the most comfortable pair of 
headphones I have ever owned. Oh yeah did I mention that the audio quality is 
amazing? 

Bluetooth will be a limitation for any set of headphones that are “wireless”, 
Apple actually has done a remarkable job with their W1 chip and it makes for a 
very seamless experience pairing and they have figured out how to get rid of 
the bluetooth lag that seems to be present in most “wireless” headphones. 
Voiceover doesn’t stutter or drop out in the slightest.

They’re worth it in my book.

Sonos headphones, well I’m in to Sonos so deep I would have to purchase a pair.

Are their rumors that Sonos is planning to release a head set?

This probably goes without saying, but I wasn’t saying that anyone shouldn’t 
have a pair of Sonos headsets. I’ve always been intrigued with Sonos myself, 
and if I already had an investment in the Sonos system then I’m sure I’d be all 
over these headsets. This doesn’t mean I would ever regret the last 18 months 
I’ve had with myh AirPod Pros though.

Christopher,

 

Your right there is argument for waiting and or not waiting,

 

I’ve got airpods pro and bose frames 

But if sonos bring out a pair of real over the head headphones,

Depending on the price,

I’ll go there without waiting.

 

Sonos are an audio company 

Apple make tech devices and are very good at it,

 

My sound system within my house is sonos,

Why should I not have a set of sonos headphones.

Obviously there’s nothing wrong with waiting, and I’m sure the Sonos headset 
will be the bomb, but if I hadn’t gotten my AirPod Pros over a year ago then 
that would have been over 12 months I’d been without my AirPod Pros. I’m not 
saying the AirPod Pros are perfect or that everyone should run out and buy a 
pair, but I’m just saying there’s also a cost for waiting.

RE: A reason not to spend the big Bucks for Apple Airpods including Airpod Max or at least not yet

2021-12-31 Thread Christopher Chaltain
This probably goes without saying, but I wasn't saying that anyone shouldn't 
have a pair of Sonos headsets. I've always been intrigued with Sonos myself, 
and if I already had an investment in the Sonos system then I'm sure I'd be all 
over these headsets. This doesn't mean I would ever regret the last 18 months 
I've had with myh AirPod Pros though.

Christopher,

Your right there is argument for waiting and or not waiting,

I've got airpods pro and bose frames
But if sonos bring out a pair of real over the head headphones,
Depending on the price,
I'll go there without waiting.

Sonos are an audio company
Apple make tech devices and are very good at it,

My sound system within my house is sonos,
Why should I not have a set of sonos headphones.

Obviously there's nothing wrong with waiting, and I'm sure the Sonos headset 
will be the bomb, but if I hadn't gotten my AirPod Pros over a year ago then 
that would have been over 12 months I'd been without my AirPod Pros. I'm not 
saying the AirPod Pros are perfect or that everyone should run out and buy a 
pair, but I'm just saying there's also a cost for waiting.

Well I have been saying this for many months now. A complete waste of money 
in my opinion because of that lead to technology that Apple allows in their 
headsets in terms of not updating to the latest protocol.

So, I'll continue to wait for a Sonos headset which will of course add the 
headset to my existing Sonos system via Wi-Fi and will be able to provide true 
lossless quality sound and most likely for less than what the Airpods Max dcost.

AirPods 3rd Gen vs. AirPods Pro

2021-12-29 Thread Joe Orozco
Hi, for anyone who’s tried both the AirPods 3rd Gen and the AirPods
Pro, can you tell me about your experience?

How does the Transparency mode work on the Pro models? I don’t
necessarily like the tight fit in my ear canals, but if Transparency
could strike a compromise, I’d be interested in getting them so as not
to lose total environmental awareness.

Also, I’m curious about ear fit. Here again, I realize the Pros will
fit better, but if the 3rd gen models fit securely, I’d be interested
to hear your experience.

Lastly, how is either model doing with latency? With my 1st Gen, I
kind of disliked them on account of the latency between input and
Voiceover response. Has this improved in the current models?

Forgive me, I realize my questions are extremely subjective, but any
tips one way or the other would be appreciated.

Thank you kindly in advance,

Joe

Hello Christopher,

 

Actually, if I flick up to more info and double tap; it gives me some of the 
info but not what I’m looking for. So, I did what I should have done and 
searched on Google for the touch gestures for the AirPods 3rd generation.

 

It turns out that these gestures are preset and you can’t change them like you 
can with the 2nd generation or the Pro an Max models. 

 

So, that is something that I obviously didn’t know before I bought them!

 

The gestures are very easy;

Press once to play/paus, or answer the phone

Press twice to go forward a track

Press 3 times to go back a track

And press once and hold to ask Siri a question. 

 

They do sound pretty good though; have to get used to the Spatial audio but I 
can also turn that off.

 

Debbie

RE: Gestures for the AirPods 3rd generation

2021-12-28 Thread Debbie Downey
HI Christopher,

 

When my AirPods first connected for which I was surprised that they did that so 
quickly; the gestures were read aloud to me but then disappeared and I haven’t 
been able to find them since other than on the Apple Support page. That is 
where it said that the touch gestures on all of the other models were 
customizable but on the 3rd generation they were preset making it sound to me 
like you couldn’t change them. 

 

I’ve got it down now though!

 

Thanks!

 

Debbie

Sounds like what you were looking for isn’t in the more information section, 
but one thing I forgot to add is that your AirPods need to be connected before 
you’ll see those gestures you can change in the more information.

Subject: Gestures for the AirPods 3rd generation

 

Hello,

 

I received my Air Pods 3rd generation and to my surprise they just about 
connected on their own without having to go through the pairing process with 
holding in the button to pair.

 

Anyway, I got a brief description of how many times to press or squeeze each 
stem to do different things but how do I find this information? I remember 
customizing my 2nd generation AirPods but that was a long time ago and I can’t 
remember where to do this. Are you able to customize how you want to control 
these like with the previous models?

 

Thanks!

 

Debbie

RE: Gestures for the AirPods 3rd generation

2021-12-28 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Sounds like what you were looking for isn't in the more information section, 
but one thing I forgot to add is that your AirPods need to be connected before 
you'll see those gestures you can change in the more information.

Hello Christopher,

Actually, if I flick up to more info and double tap; it gives me some of the 
info but not what I'm looking for. So, I did what I should have done and 
searched on Google for the touch gestures for the AirPods 3rd generation.

It turns out that these gestures are preset and you can't change them like you 
can with the 2nd generation or the Pro an Max models.

So, that is something that I obviously didn't know before I bought them!

The gestures are very easy;
Press once to play/paus, or answer the phone
Press twice to go forward a track
Press 3 times to go back a track
And press once and hold to ask Siri a question.

They do sound pretty good though; have to get used to the Spatial audio but I 
can also turn that off.

Debbie

Not sure if it's in the same place as my Airpod Pros, but try Settings ->

doing a flick down when you get to the entry for your AirPods.

Hello Everyone, 

Okay, I took my AirPods Pro into Apple and, after running a diagnostic test (or 
two), it was determined that I have a defective wireless charging case.  As I 
have Apple Care Plus, they are going to replace the charging case at no 
additional cost.  They had to order a replacement case as they had none in 
stock.

So, if you are experiencing a similar problem, I strongly encourage you to take 
your AirPods into Apple or an authorized retailer.

Mark

Subject: Extremely Rapid Battery Drain on AirPods Pro, within the last Two 
Weeks, Why?

Hello All,

I purchased my AirPods Pro last December.  Since then, I have had nothing but 
excellent service from them, including standby battery life.

However, and I'm not certain when this happened, within the last two weeks to 
be sure, all of a sudden, almost every time I go to use my AirPods Pro, when 
out-and-about, I find that they are completely drained of battery life even 
though I have not used them since charging, a day or 2 prior.  

I have performed all of the Apple-recommended procedures including resetting 
the battery case, and removing the set from my account.  Nothing seems to help.

Last night, I had a friend come over with her AirPods Pro and we made certain 
to charge them both to 100%.  Then, we simply let each set sit on a table for 
about 20 minutes, essentially in standby mode.  It should be noted that the 
AirPods were not actively connected to either of our iPhones.

She has iPhone 11 and I have my beloved 8 Plus; however we were both running 
the same version of iOS.

When we checked the battery status on both units, hers was virtually the same 
as it was just after charging while my battery case had lost 10% of it's 
battery life; also, both of my AirPods Pro earpieces seemed to be sucking up 
the proverbial juice, even faster.  

Again, leaving the units on the table, after checking battery life, 2 more 
times at 20 minute intervals, it was clear that my set was losing battery power 
almost three times more rapidly than her set.

So, as my AirPods Pro are covered by Apple Care Plus, I will take them into the 
store and see what they have to say.

I canvased a few other acquaintances (about 5 people in all) on this issue 
they, too, are all experiencing  the same rapid battery loss on their AirPods 
Pro sets.

If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this seemingly out-of-the-blue 
problem, by all means, chime in.

Thank you,

Mark

Have you tried cleaning the case? I mean by making sure nothing has got down in 
the case where they connect magnetically? I have had this happen before, and i 
had to make sure that no ear wax or dirt had made it down there. If you are

Subject: Extremely Rapid Battery Drain on AirPods Pro, within the last Two 
Weeks, Why?

Hello All,

I purchased my AirPods Pro last December.  Since then, I have had nothing but 
excellent service from them, including standby battery life.

However, and I'm not certain when this happened, within the last two weeks to 
be sure, all of a sudden, almost every time I go to use my AirPods Pro, when 
out-and-about, I find that they are completely drained of battery life even 
though I have not used them since charging, a day or 2 prior.  

I have performed all of the Apple-recommended procedures including resetting 
the battery case, and removing the set from my account.  Nothing seems to help.

Last night, I had a friend come over with her AirPods Pro and we made certain 
to charge them both to 100%.  Then, we simply let each set sit on a table for 
about 20 minutes, essentially in standby mode.  It should be noted that the 
AirPods were not actively connected to either of our iPhones.

She has iPhone 11 and I have my beloved 8 Plus; however we were both running 
the same version of iOS.

When we checked the battery status on both units, hers was virtually the same 
as it was just after charging while my battery case had lost 10% of it's 
battery life; also, both of my AirPods Pro earpieces seemed to be sucking up 
the proverbial juice, even faster.  

Again, leaving the units on the table, after checking battery life, 2 more 
times at 20 minute intervals, it was clear that my set was losing battery power 
almost three times more rapidly than her set.

So, as my AirPods Pro are covered by Apple Care Plus, I will take them into the 
store and see what they have to say.

I canvased a few other acquaintances (about 5 people in all) on this issue 
they, too, are all experiencing  the same rapid battery loss on their AirPods 
Pro sets.

If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this seemingly out-of-the-blue 
problem, by all means, chime in.

Thank you,

Mark

Extremely Rapid Battery Drain on AirPods Pro, within the last Two Weeks, Why?

2021-12-22 Thread M. Taylor
Hello All,

I purchased my AirPods Pro last December.  Since then, I have had nothing
but excellent service from them, including standby battery life.

However, and I'm not certain when this happened, within the last two weeks
to be sure, all of a sudden, almost every time I go to use my AirPods Pro,
when out-and-about, I find that they are completely drained of battery life
even though I have not used them since charging, a day or 2 prior.  

I have performed all of the Apple-recommended procedures including resetting
the battery case, and removing the set from my account.  Nothing seems to
help.

Last night, I had a friend come over with her AirPods Pro and we made
certain to charge them both to 100%.  Then, we simply let each set sit on a
table for about 20 minutes, essentially in standby mode.  It should be noted
that the AirPods were not actively connected to either of our iPhones.

She has iPhone 11 and I have my beloved 8 Plus; however we were both running
the same version of iOS.

When we checked the battery status on both units, hers was virtually the
same as it was just after charging while my battery case had lost 10% of
it's battery life; also, both of my AirPods Pro earpieces seemed to be
sucking up the proverbial juice, even faster.  

Again, leaving the units on the table, after checking battery life, 2 more
times at 20 minute intervals, it was clear that my set was losing battery
power almost three times more rapidly than her set.

So, as my AirPods Pro are covered by Apple Care Plus, I will take them into
the store and see what they have to say.

I canvased a few other acquaintances (about 5 people in all) on this issue
they, too, are all experiencing  the same rapid battery loss on their
AirPods Pro sets.

If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this seemingly out-of-the-blue
problem, by all means, chime in.

Thank you,

Mark

More questions about the AirPods 3rd Generation

2021-12-19 Thread Debbie Downey
Hello,

 

Is it possible to turn off Spacial recognition with the AirPods 3rd
generation?

I am using an iPhone 8 so I guess that means I don't have a USBC Plug to
charge my iPhone; do I have to buy one if I get the AirPods 3rd generation
or does it come with one? I don't know much about this MagSafe Charging and
don't have a Mag Safe Charging Pad so I would still use the Lightning
charging method? 

 

If I want to use these Airpods when walking around outside or for using
AIRA; it sounds like they would be better than the AirPods Pro because they
don't have Noise Canceling.

 

Debbie 

 

Sorry for all of these questions but that's what I need to know before
making this purchase.

Re: Spatial Audio with AirPods, Not So Much

2021-12-12 Thread Richard Turner


Spatial audio is not intended for mono playback at all.
There is nothing spatial about a person reading a book.
When you listen to something where the direction of the sound makes a 
difference, you may find it adds a lot of depth to the experience; but then 
again you might not.
But certainly evaluating spatial audio based on an audio book is somewhat 
pointless.

Re: Spatial Audio with AirPods, Not So Much

2021-12-12 Thread CHELA Robles
Hey Mark I wouldn’t do this with audiobooks at all I would do this with music 
that supports spacial audio and also the Dolby Atmos surround sound type of 
movies that support it as well but never audiobooks I tried it too and I hated 
it you’re not alone with regards to the whole spatial audio thing in regards to 
audiobooks.
