Laptop – Windows 11 does not recognize Apple Airpods as an input device – help me pls?
Dear Gutefrage Community,
I recently bought a new laptop. Sometimes I want to talk to friends on Discord, but I can't activate my AirPods as an input device (microphone). They appear, but I can't select them. The output works fine. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?
I would like to use the Apple Airpods 2 Pro.
Many thanks and kind regards,
your Basti
You may have a basic setting in your Airpods that cannot be processed by Windows. Connect your Airpods with the IPhone and open the Airpod settings with the corresponding app.
There should be a setting or function that means “use left headphones as a microphone”
Then the microphone should also be detected in Windows.
