My first paired AirTag was somehow removed from my findNow list when I paired my phone with my MacBook (I suspect it had something to do with encryption).

I went back to my Apple Store and explained the problem. After demonstrating that a reset didn’t fix the problem, they gave me a new AirTag and kept the old one.

When I paired the new AirTag, the old one suddenly reappeared in my list! It spent some three weeks at the Apple Store, then about two weeks in Poland and now it’s been in a Dutch warehouse for about three months - last seen 17 hours ago.

I don’t know why it’s spending so much time in a Dutch warehouse - perhaps it’s Apples junkyard in Europe.



Some naughty folk could do this trick to identify worthy treasure to plunder


Wow, could you imagine? A warehouse full of maybe-broken Apple products. What a fun place to check out!!


You may be sarcastic but it'd really be fun for me. Or, profitable for the more naughty ones.
