Thank you. I lost my old Apple ID and I’ve been getting sent tracking notifications about 5 times a day as well as everyone around me

[Lifesbeauty]

For some reason this isn’t working for me. It goes back to the connect screen but then it jumps right back to say my name/AirPods. It’s not letting me back to the original screen to reconnect everything.
