    Hi,

    Absolutely, yes, as long as the laptop's Bluetooth is working.

    • Place both AirPods in the charging case and open the lid.
    • Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case until the status light flashes white.
    • On your Windows PC, go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices.
    • Turn Bluetooth on, then select Add device > Bluetooth.
    • Select your AirPods from the list.
    • Wait for “Connected” to appear.

    If the AirPods don't appear, close the case, reopen it, and hold the setup button again until the light flashes white.

    If Bluetooth pairing keeps failing, I’d remove the device from Settings > Bluetooth & devices, restart both devices, and try pairing again. Also check Device Manager for a Bluetooth driver update. If it still won’t pair, turning Bluetooth off and back on after a restart can sometimes clear a stuck pairing state.

    Yes. Apple AirPods can be connected to a Windows 11 laptop over Bluetooth, as long as the laptop supports Bluetooth.

    Steps:

    1. Make sure the HP laptop has Bluetooth and that Bluetooth is turned on:
      • Select Start > Settings > Bluetooth & devices and confirm Bluetooth is On.
      • Or use the taskbar quick settings and turn on Bluetooth.
    2. Put the AirPods in pairing mode:
      • Place them in the case, open the lid, and make them discoverable.
    3. On the laptop, open the Bluetooth device list:
      • Select the Network, Sound, or Battery icon on the taskbar.
      • Select Manage Bluetooth devices.
    4. Under New devices, select the AirPods when they appear, then complete any prompts and select Done.

    If the AirPods do not appear:

    • Make sure the case lid is open and the AirPods are in pairing mode.
    • If the device is not shown in the list, the Bluetooth devices discovery setting might need to be set to Advanced.
    • Run the Bluetooth troubleshooter in the Get Help app.
