Prolonged delivery times for SSDs

Why does the delivery time for BTO iMacs specced with SSDs bump up from a few days to 4-6 weeks?

Given that it's only the SSD option that increases the lead time that much, it looks like Apple don't have enough SSDs on hand at the moment to predict a shorter delivery time, so they're managing expectations.

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?
As of today feb 15 i have been waiting for 78 days. Finland doesn't have an official apple store (only authorized resellers) It was my mistake because i should have bought from apple.com. But i think 2.5 months is too long and i have no information about when i can get it..

The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 256 GB SSD costs $2,000.
The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,300.
With 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD it costs $2,500.
The high-end 15” rMBP with a 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,600.
All cost $500 dollars more with a 1 TB SSD.
So the SSD size is not a differentiating factor unless you prefer 256 GB.
If you think you need 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD then you might as well spend the extra $100 for the high-end model.
The high-end model will make a difference on gaming and graphics-oriented applications.
They tend to run other applications at about the same speed.
Both models are rated with 8 hours of battery life.
Benchmarks on PhotoShop comparing memory sizes: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5659174?tstart=30
The speed was about 10% different between 8 GB and 16 GB models.
On other applications your mileage may vary.
Application benchmarks:
http://www.macworld.com/article/2059215/15-inch-retina-macbook-pro-review-a-tale -of-two-laptops.html
The low-end and high-end performed the about the same on non-graphics oriented applications.
Graphics oriented benchmarks:
On the Cinebench OpenGL benchmark the high-end was about twice as fast.
On the Unigine Heaven Benchmark benchmark they ran at about the same speed.
On the Unigine Valley Benchmark benchmark the high-end was about 1.5x as fast.

UK delivery times for photbooks?

Hi
Can anyone give me an idea, based on experience,
of delivery times for photobooks ordered from the UK?
I noticed that when you order, it says international orders dispatched in 2 working days, which made me think they are coming from the USA and might take a long time to arrive.
I'm working on a photobook for my brother's 50th birthday on 13 May, and it's important that I get it in time.
Thanks

Well in the end I used photobox instead and they did a fantastic job. Hardback book came with a cut-out in the cover, like the iphoto ones, but was cheaper.I ordered on a Sunday, and the book was despatched the following day - a bank holiday! - and arrived on the Wednesday.

Contract - Plant Conditions - Different delivery times for plant

Hi people,
I have a question about contracts , in transaction ME32K.
I enter a Contract number
Edit -> Plant Conditions menu.
Select a plant and I can enter a different Net Price for each item for this plant. How can I enter "Planned Delivery Time" for each item for this plant?
In this case, the vendor has different delivery times for each plant and I cannot enter this information.
Do you know if it is possible?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
The basic requirement is for the trading of material which is imported and for the material which are purchase locally there should be different invoice for such materials, but while creating the sales order we have only one sales order including all types of materials so in such case we want to create different delivery challans so that different invoice can be made easily or only twi invoice for one delivery challan.
regards,
zafar

Current Delivery Times for MacBook Pro 15"?

What can i expect the delivery time to New York to be with a 256gb SSD and 8gb of RAM and anti-glare screen?

After you configure your laptop on the apple store, when you choose your shipping preferences it will show you an estimate.

"Real" delivery times for iPhone 4 in HK ?

Hi there,
my iPhone got stolen today, but incidentally, a while ago, I had ordered an iPhone for a friend who won't be back for another 4 weeks, and this one arrived today. So I am contemplating to use this one for myself and ordering a new one for him.
So that's what I did, ordered a new one and got told by Apple that the delivery will be in almost 6 weeks (25/11) which would be too late.
But for the one I received today, they originally told me as well that it would take 6 weeks (11/11), but eventually, I received it in 2 weeks.
Before breaking the package, it would be good to get some feedback what delivery times people are experiencing when ordering iPhone4 in HK (of course, living here as well).
Thanks a lot, Nick

Is there not an O2/T-Mobile/Orange/Vodafone/3UK/Carphone Warehouse/Phones4U shop nearer to you or have you pre-ordered from Apple and need to pick-up?
Last year I finished work, travelled back from Bristol to Gloucester, walked into the O2 shop and didn't have to queue for a minute to get my 3GS.

Delivery times for iwatch

I Have recently ordered a new iwatch on 12/04/2015 obviously I wasn't expecting delivery on the 24/04/2025 but was a little shocked that delivery is now estimated
for the month of June. I then started to get buyers remorse and was contampating cancelling my order online - I've now changed my mind having visited an apple shop today successfully booking an appointment whilst in store meant only a five minute wait to try one on.
It is absolutely brilliant and can't wait for mine to arrive.
what do you think the chances are of my delivery time coming forward?

As someone is sure to point out, we are all users like yourself - not Apple employees - so it is just guesses on our parts. However I have recently read several articles that implied (either through their own guesswork or actual sources in Apple) that a lot of those June delivery dates are probably going to be earlier than originally estimated.

Regarding planned delivery time for Subcontracting process

1.Factory calender is maintained and assigned to the plant,SUNDAY is
not working day for Client,so the system is not planning any internal
activities for SUNDAY,up to here it is fine.
2.One semi finished material is produced by vendor.i.e.Sub contracting
process, it takes 2 days to complete.For vendor SUNDAY is not a
working day.
3.Planned delivery time is maintained as 2 days ,so that if PO is
release on MONDAY ,the delivery date on WEDNESDAY.
4.If requirement is on MONDAY ,In MRP Run System is generating the
release date on SATURDAY and delivery date on MONDAY,here system is
taking the calender days not the factory calender days,Client is
asking for correct delivery date.
5.Is there any way to tell the system that SUNDAY is not working day
for vendor,so that system will generate the release date on FRIDAY
and delivery date on MONDAY.
Please give your valuable inputs.

Hi
the following link might help you in setting the planned delivery time in your defined calendar, rather than the general calendar days.

How can consider Planned delivery time for subcontracting dependent of qty

Dear guru ,
How can mrp schedule delivery date of a subcontracting purchase requisition in order to consider planned delivery time and quantity to purchase.
Thanks

dear guru ,
I want to create a self-defined info structure similar to S013.
I want to add field purchasing group from EKKO-EKGRP. The other fields are similar to S013 with the same rules.
What do you suggest i can do consider note 397864 :
You are not permitted :a) to use info structure S013 as a template for self-defined info structures (This is prevented as of Release 4.5 due to a termination message).b) to create any update rules for S013 with a self-defined update group.c) to include the enhanced update rules that are used for S013 during the definition of key figure updating into the definition of the update of a self-defined info structure (compute...).
Thanks

Average delivery time for MacBooks to Europe.

I've read quite a few posts (and written a couple myself) where people complain about TNT's delivery times. Now, being sick at home and waiting for my MacBook to make it out of China I was wondering:
If you live in Europe and have already received your MacBook, how many days did you have to wait from ordering it and actually receiving it?

Specifying message delivery time for a JMS queue

          Guys,
          Can anyone tell me as to if it possible to specify message delivery from a JMS
          queue to a listening MDB at a specified interval in weblogic . I mean I need
          to post messages to the JMS queue but I need the messages to be delivered to the
          MDB's after lets say 30 seconds .
          How can I do it using the weblogic console ?? Which property do i need to change
          Please advise.
          Thanks
          Kar


Hi,
          Message delivery time can be set programmatically,
          or through a console override. In your case, set it via
          the console with the value "30000".
          This feature has been available since 6.1, and is a
          JMS extension.
          Here is the link to the 8.1 documentation:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jms/implement.html#1235262
          And for a full list of WL JMS features, see here:

Norway - any know what´s the delivery time for purchase new iPhone 4S?

On the web it says 1-2 weeks. Is that a reality?

Theo - while I do not live or work in your part of the country I can at least share my experience. I had a state of the art Droid Charge 4G LTE prior to getting the iPhone 4S. Keeping all things equal, when I used my Charge on 3G, which was almost the entire time I owned it, it was slower than what I am getting on my new iPhone. I was averaged .1 - ,5 down with my Charge and I am getting .5 - 1.2 down on my iPhone. I really don't know what difference location makes other than the sheer amount of people on the network, but the iPhone should outperform your old Droid.
I would recommend calling Apple Care or stopping by a genius bar at an Apple store. You could also check the download speeds of display phones at a store, then compare yours at the same time for a determination of a harware issue or data issue. I know this is some work, but it should narrow down a cause.

Delivery times for the UK?

I'm waiting for delivery of a new Intel iMac (my first Mac). I've just had notification of dispatch and was wondering if anyone in the UK could give me an idea of how long delivery is likely to take? Thanks

What if it's shipping from China to UK? Anyone had experience with MBP times from the factory to London? Mine shipped Friday 24/3. On the apecode.com website it had 5/4 as estimated time of arrival but it's changed to 30/3 and says this:
29 mar 06....86 14....booking slot obtained....Apple Shanghai....30 mar 06
It'd be great if it did come tomorrow!
Any ideas?

Delivery time for photo book

Hi, I want to order a photobook for a special occasion and can't find out how long it will take from order to delivery? Anyone know? I live in the Uk and want the book before mid Feb.
Ta.

Hi, I bought my imac in December and have ordered about ten books so far. Delivery is very quick. They seem to arrive within a week or ten days. Much quicker than Photobox, and I'm really impressed by the quality.
However, don't leave ordering til the last minute, just in case you need to make an amendment and get it re-printed!
And it's worth printing off a pdf proof so you can check and re-check for typos.

Experience in delivery times for retina MBP so far?

So I put in an order for a retina Macbook Pro on June 17 and as we all know the estimated time to ship is 3-4 weeks right now.
For those of you who also ordered online, have you received yours yet? Curious to see if the estimated time to ship is accurate or if they're just managing expectations.
Yes, I'm impatient!

I think it is great machine. Display is very sharp. The machine is noticably faster than my 2009 MBP. Had no problems moving my software and data from my old machine to the new one, using Time Machine Back-up. It brought over VMWare for windows. My son installed Windows 7, and it runs very well. However, I use it only for Quicken. So far the new MBP with retina display fulfills the hype for me. Only problems I have experienced involve iPhoto. Had problems converting the thumbnails to high resolution. Apple Care support, after a long time on the phone solved the problem, after the call was moved to higher level of support. However, iPhoto has crashed twice. The good news is my photos look amazing on the retina display.
