Put the accessory into pairing mode, ensure it is not connected elsewhere, then use Settings → Bluetooth to connect or forget/re-pair it.
Step by Step
- Open the relevant Apple app or Settings section on the iPhone or iPad.
- Put the accessory into pairing mode, ensure it is not connected elsewhere, then use Settings → Bluetooth to connect or forget/re-pair it.
- Review the result before deleting data, removing an account, or changing synchronization settings.
- For important data, confirm a current backup exists before making a major storage, account, or device change.
If That Doesn't Work
- Apple occasionally moves settings between iOS/iPadOS versions, so exact menu wording can differ by software version.
- iCloud synchronization is not the same as a separate backup of every item; deleting synchronized content can propagate to other devices.
