Find My Not Working - MacBook Air M2

Hello,


I know this has been posted before but everyone else seemed to have the issue resolved.


My iPhone and iPad show up in the Find My app but my MacBook just will not appear.


I have;


  • Turned on location settings for Find My on my MacBook
  • Turned on Find My Mac within iCloud settings
  • Signed out and signed back into iCloud


It currently shows that Find My is on within every setting where I can turn it on but on Device Info it continues to show off.


Is there some other fix that I've not come across yet?

MacBook Air, macOS 26.0

"My iPhone and iPad show up in the Find My app but my MacBook just will not appear"

.

You could try signing out of iCloud, and then signing back in, to see if that helps.


If you still need help & you haven't already: Restart your Mac : ie: Apple menu > Restart

(Deletes temporary files, re-establishes connections, may update recent setting-changes, and often restores order if something is not working as expected.)


You can check you are signed into your Mac with the same Apple Account details you use for your other devices.

If needed: Some small, yet important, detail may be being overlooked:

You may want to check through Apple support's "Set up" article (link below):

Eg: In iCloud: you may still need to "allow" Find My Mac to use the location of your Mac.

For MacOS Tahoe 26: See: How to: Set up Find My on Mac - Apple Support
