Netherite pickaxe with mending, efficiency 3, unbreaking 3, and silk touch will not mend. the animation for it collecting the xp showed but the bar showing the durability did not move whatsoever. I tried xp from furnaces and cows, I also tried closing minecraft and logging back in.

Hi, could you attach a video showing the issue?
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
It would also be helpful to mention exactly how many and what kind of items you smelted, and/or how many cows you killed. You may need to smelt / kill quite a lot to move the durability bar one pixel.
Each XP unit restores 2 durability
A netherite pickaxe has 2032 total durability
Assuming the durability bar is 20 pixels wide (may be more or less, depending on your device)
Each pixel on the durability bar represents > 100 durability for a netherite pickaxe
Killing one cow provides 1-3 XP
So to restore 100 durability you have to kill an average of 25 cows.
To restore a nearly-broken netherite pickaxe, you would have to kill about 500 cows.
The number of items you would need to smelt depends on their type. Some items provide very little XP.
You can see how much XP you get from each smelted item at https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Smelting.
Also note that using a pickaxe as a weapon (to kill cows, etc), it will use twice as much durability versus using it for mining.
The bar may have gone up slightly since then, im not entirely sure, but it seems to be doing the same thing 11 hours later. Ive smelted about 6 stacks of charcoal trying to bring it up. Hopefully this video is slightly helpful. It could possibly have something to do with my laptop as it has caused problems in the past, but I guess im not sure if the device could have something to do with it either. Thank you for looking into it!

Each smelted charcoal provides 0.15 XP, so 6 x 64 x 0.15 = 57.6 XP. That would restore 114 durability, which might move the bar by 1 pixel. Smelting charcoal is a very inefficient way to gain XP.
The XP orbs are visible in the video, and your XP bar is not going up.
If you have any armor with mending (none is shown on the hud), XP can go to any damaged armor item also.
I tried to reproduce as far as the error you provided but it totally works.
