• Information on how to set up your AirPods on different devices

Instructions for Windows

• open *Settings* on your windows computer.
• Go to Bluetooth devices, click on "add device".
• When it asks what device type, click on Bluetooth.
• It should scan for hardware, the name of the device should be AirPods or "Your Name's AirPods" and should have a headphone symbol. 
• Click connect, after connected you should be able to hear sounds. I would suggest opening a YouTube video and seeing if you can hear sound.
