I was getting an older MBP ready for donation and noticed that my current MBP (26 Beta 2 25A5295e) wasn't on Find My.

I went through the steps - Location Services, iCloud, etc. Find My ON.

When I click on the device under my Apple Account, it says Find My Mac OFF...
I've restarted 3 times.

All other devices are running the newest (non Beta) OS.

The only thing I can think of is when Tahoe first installed, it seemed to get in a loop of signing back into my Apple account, so maybe that turned all this stuff off?

Is this a known issue or is there a way to get it back on?

Your Mac running the Tahoe beta says Find My is on, but your other devices say it's not. Is that right?

It could be a beta thing that will resolve itself as Tahoe matures. If you just turned it on, it might take some time for iCloud and your other devices to reflect the new status. That's all I can think of.

Under iCloud:

If I click Find My Mac there, it shows this which if I click, nothing opens.

If I go to my Apple Account on the Mac, it's listed under Devices but says Find My is off:

On my other devices in Find My, it's just not listed at all.
