How to send your Powerbeats Pro earbud to Apple after receiving a replacement in the United States and Canada

Choose your country or region.

After you’ve contacted Apple for service, you’ll receive a kit that contains a replacement product with everything you need to return your original product to Apple. Returning your original product is only mandatory if it was replaced using Express Replacement Service.  If your replacement was provided as part of an out-of-warranty repair, you may still return your original product for safe disposal.

Important: If exchanging a product, return it so that Apple receives it within 10 days of the day your replacement product was sent to you by Apple (check your ship date). If Apple doesn't receive your product within ten days, or if Apple technicians find that your product has accidental damage or unauthorised modifications, you'll be charged up to the full value of the replacement product. For more details, see terms and conditions.

Use your replaced Powerbeats Pro earbud

When you replace only an earbud (or both earbuds), your serial number does not change. Your replacement Apple product is covered by a 90-day service warranty, the remainder of your original product warranty or AppleCare plan, or by consumer law, whichever is longer.

Set up your replacement Powerbeats Pro earbud

  1. Put both Powerbeats Pro earbuds in your charging case. Keep the lid open.

  2. Check the LED status light on the front edge of the case. It should flash red.

  3. Press and hold the system button on the inside of the case for 5 seconds. The status light should flash white. If it still flashes red, connect the case to power, close the lid and wait for 20 minutes.

  4. Pair your Powerbeats Pro with your device.

Pair with iPhone

  1. With your earbuds still inside and the case still open, hold the Powerbeats Pro next to your unlocked iPhone. A setup animation appears on your iPhone.

  2. Follow the onscreen instructions.

Pair with another device

  1. Make sure that you enabled bluetooth on your device.

  2. With your earbuds still inside and the case still open, press and hold the system button on your Powerbeats Pro until the LED blinks.

  3. Open the bluetooth menu on your device. For example, on your Mac, choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click Bluetooth.

  4. In the list of discovered bluetooth devices, tap or click your Powerbeats Pro.
