How to disable Activation Lock if the device does not appear in my Devices List Hello everyone, I have a MacBook that I was using during the last two years. I took it to Apple repair, and while they were doing repairs, they told me that Activation Lock is activated, and they cannot proceed until I disable it. However, Activation Lock was disabled, the technician actually checked that with me when I handed them my Macbook. So, when they called, they asked me to go to iCloud.com/find to disable Activation Lock, but the Macbook does not appear in the list of my devices (it only appears in settings). Is there something I am missing here? Thanks,

Activation lock not able to enable My Macbook Pro 2019 with T2 security chip is not able to turn on activation lock. This Macbook Pro is DEP enrolled with active MDM profile. I've double check these settings are correct: Secure Boot To Full Security Turn On Find My Mac But I am still not able to enable activation lock on this mac. Do I miss anything?

My macbook pro which is linked to my appleid and find my account is locked by activation lock. Hello there, i purchased a macbook pro 2020 before 2 years, on year 2021. I purchased it from a local electronics dealer in the region where there is no apple support. At that time I attached my appleid to the device and i also activated find my for the device. I can still see the device on my appleid device list and also i can see it in find my devices list. The problem is before a week i found an update notification in the setting and i go for it. Immediately it shows activation lock. I tried to activate and login using my device password but it shows password error and password unacceptable due to multiple error message. I am sure the password is correct. Then I tried to use appleid and the big problem showed up. It shows b*****@yahoo.fr which is totally new for me. I imagine it is previous owners email id. I don't know the original owner and the local dealer also can't trace him/her. Even I can't see the full email address to communicate. I tried to fill apple support how ever it requires proof of ownership which shows only purchase only from supported region. I have a receipt for my purchase from my local electronics dealer but it is not helping. My questions is 1. Can a device linked to multiple appleid and find my account at the same time? 2. Considering my condition what is the solution? Thank you in advance.

With no comments after 3 days, it may be in order to wipe the drive and start fresh if this really bugs you. Just be sure you're well backed up as wiping erases everything..
