Lost macbook remote locking not working

He there, 


I lost my macbook. I did have „Find my“ activated. Now I am trying to lock it remotelly. I tryed it via my iphone as well as icloud in a browser. It says it’s waiting and I don’t see a way how to finish it. I do use the e-mail connected to my Apple ID.


I go through all the locking steps. I fill in the message the macbook should show once somebody connects it online etc but I don’t receive any verification mail from Apple and I don’t have a chance to set up the new locking password. 


Anybody any suggestions? Thank you

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.4

Thanks for the tip. It's very unlikely the macbook was fully charged with long battery life.


Please, could you explain me a bit more how that works? From Apple instructions I understand it needs to be connected online in order to “Find my“ actions would take effect. Why would the barrery state matter then?
