Thanks for the suggestion but all indications are that “Find My” is enabled. The only issue is that the mbp is not shown as a device in the “Find My” app. Actually, Find My could not be enabled until the disk repair util was executed in safe mode.
None of this was an issue prior to the public beta of Tahoe, currently 26.7 as I recall.
Again, thanks for the suggestion.

That is very unusual and seems to indicate that something may have been amiss with your file system or catalog. Or simply booting into Safe Mode emptied a cache that might have been retaining something that caused a problem.

Several days ago Apple released Tahoe 26.7 as an official release. That is the latest supported version of Tahoe and should be used.

Note that it is quite possible, maybe even likely, that your problems with Find My stem from utilizing beta versions of the OS. However none of that can be discussed in Apple Discussions per Apple policy. Here are some resources Apple makes available to help you run down any issues that might stem from your use of beta software.

It is. See previous post. Thanks.

I think this issue is beyond the scope or capacity of community discussions. Thanks again for your response.
