    Find my Device - Wifi on, feature set up, page says 'Off'


    Hi Brink, having had it work when I swapped to my 32 bit upgraded installation, I've now swapped back to my 64 bit build, and to my surprise, on the page 'Find my Device' was blue for the first time, and clickable. So for the moment at least- without changing anything -except swapping the hard drive in and out- it works.

    So.. does 'Find my device' need kicking into action by being initiated from what might be perceived as a different device? Hmm. Odd.

    Thanks for trying to help.. it's a new feature, so..

    Great news.

    It worked out of the box for me, so I'm not sure what may have caused it to not work at first for you.
