MacBook Pro Does not Show Up On Find My Device

Both my iPhone and my iMac Desktop think that the MacBook Pro I'm writing this from is not online. Not only is it online, but it is using the same wi-fi network. How can I fix this puzzling problem?

MacBook Pro 15", OS X 10.11

Find my iPhone/ Mac all devices offline Note: Apple required me to select a device so I have just selected one at random but the problem is affecting ALL devices. I recently got a new iPhone. It appears on Find My iPhone. However, my iMac, my 2x MacBook Pro and my iPad now show as offline. When I log into Find my Mac via iCloud using my iMac the devices are still offline, including even the Mac I'm logged in from. This seems extremely strange. Any ideas what's going on here??

Find my phone>. Mac Desktop not appearing on find my phone but all other devices are. All my devices are on the same Apple Sign-in. On my Mac desktop, iPhone and iPad I can see the iPhone and iPad. However, I can’t see the Mac desktop on any of these three devices. I have got location services switched on, on all these devices. I’ve tried everything including re-booting, signing in and out of iCloud on each device. The iPhone shows itself and the iPad and visa versa but does not show the Mac desktop. Similarly, the Mac desktop shows the iPad and iPhone but not itself. Also, a second iPhone does not show anywhere on find my phone. They are all signed in to iCloud on the same password and the same home network.

Review Set up Find My on your iPhone, Mac, and other devices, and verify location services and Find My Mac are all set correctly. If you are still using OS X 10.11 "El Capitan" as shown in your profile information, be sure to follow If you have iOS 12 or earlier, macOS Mojave or earlier at the end.
