Bilbo snuck out of the Dwarves camp and delivered the Arkenstone to Bard.
If you are referring to the book "The Hobbit," we aren't told exactly. We do know that elves and dwarves had a long-standing grudge against each other. But it does seem as if the elves were trying to trap them, or at least to create an excuse for taking them prisoner. The elves in "The Hobbit" were more like the elves in Celtic folklore - silly, tricky, deceitful little fairies - than the regal, mysterious elves in "The Lord of the Rings." Legolas was a Mirkwood elf, one of the people that the dwarves encountered in "The Hobbit," and was not considered the equal of the Lorien elves.
He was not identified by name. He was sent to look in the area that Bilbo had last been seen in by Gandalf. He was strong and surefooted and carried Bilbo down to the camp.
Gandalf had not meant to abandon the Dwarves and the Hobbit. But he had had to attend the meeting of the White Council and convince them to attack the Necromancer's fortress of Dol Guldur, because he had discovered that the Necromancer was actually Sauron biding his time and recovering his power. He hadalways intended to return to the Dwarves, and he did so at the right time on both occasions - once saving the Company from being eaten by trolls, the other time warning them of the coming of the Orcs and Wargs.

Stay with them at the camp rather than return to the dwarves.
Rivendell was not central to the story of Bilbo and the Dwarves and the quest for Erebor. Elrond played a minor role in that he deciphered the moon letters but was not part of the quest. Rivendell was a place of refuge and contemplation, not a camp for war. Elrond spent most of the third age being a councilor not a hero.
