Activation Lock Disabled?
Hi,
I have an M1 Mac with Find My enabled yet I noticed in System Report it says activation lock status is disabled. Any ideas why?
Mac mini, macOS 12.1

After all that I just needed to turn Find My off on the Mac then reboot and turn it back on, now it is enabled.

Please review the two pictures below and see if your Setup matches. First Picture from System Preference >> Internet Accounts >> iCloud. Note - the Find My Mac is enabled with a check mark. In Second picture - the Option on first picture is clicked and presents what is Inside the Options of Find My Mac - both option are also enabled.
IMHO - this could indicate this computer was pre-owned and the previous owner has not performed this action.
What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac
And as such - the previous owner could activate the Activation Lock on this computer
I would contact the seller.

My M1 Mac Mini as Brand New directly from Apple and see nothing like how yo describe it.
