MacBook Pro not appearing in Find My despite being signed into iCloud and trying most known fixes on the internet.

Similar to user mcardlepm, my findmy has been broken on my macbook pro M3 and I have been unable to re-enable it. I have tried everything. I've disabled and re-enabled FindMy, logged out and back into iCloud (under either my email OR my phone number), restarted and done complete shut downs of my computer. And absolutely nothing works. I assumed it would be fixed with the Tahoe update but still nothing worked. What do I do because I don't want to lose my laptop or get it stolen.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 26.4

Here's what I successfully did to fix the same issue on my M2 MacBook Air. I really could not find what causes this issue to begin with in the first place but this worked for me to fix it permanently. I really don't know why this would work but it did. I believe I found it in a Reddit post.

Shut down the Mac
Restart the Mac in Recovery mode
Within Recovery mode, enter Disk Utility
Run First Aid on all volumes
Restart the Mac
Verify Find My is enabled on the Mac using the Find My app (you may need to re-enable it in Settings it but I didn't).

Sorry. This issue was driving me nuts as well. Nothing else besides this worked for me. All I can suggest is to be sure you run First Aid on ALL volumes of the Mac's internal drive and it needs to be done (as mentioned) in Recovery mode.

Good luck to you
