MacBook/iMac and two Factor trusted device

Hi Guys,


Is it possible to have a MacBook Pro as a trusted device for two factor authentication?


I am signed into iCloud and 'Find my Mac' on my MBP, however it is not displaying along side my iPad and iPhone as a potential trusted device.


Googled about can't find anything confirming?


Thanks,

Regards,

John

Unfortunately, I don't think so. It has to be an iOS device with Find My iDevice enabled, or a device capable of receiving SMS messages to be a trusted device. At the present time, Macs using Find My Mac are not included (although I'm not sure why).
