There's a good amount of time between late SA and late TA. Much changed:

Arnor was destroyed.

Gondor began to no longer trust outsiders, except proven allies.

The Elves dwindled, and withdrew to their respective regions.

Many kingdoms of the Dwarves were nigh on destroyed, and the Dwarves received no succor from their 'allies'.

The memory of Men is short. Soon the Elves became all but myths, not close allies.

The Last Alliance was only temporary anyway.
