Who else is still waiting for FedEx?

Been sitting around waiting for FedEx. Are a lot of you still in the same position? Or did most of you get your phones?

Still waiting and my order status just changed to say that it is going to be shipped on 10/21. I preordered last Friday at 5am to make sure I would get mine today. Not cool!

Anyone still waiting for xgrade? Or: I still haven't received my discs....

Hi all,
I ordered my XGrade discs on 2/7, and they were shipped on 2/29. I am in Los Angeles. I still haven't received them, and I am getting a little antsy.
THe email describes media mail as '3-7 days' (I am beyond that now) and I don't think it can be tracked....
Is anyone else still waiting for their crossgrade discs to arrive, with a similar ship date as mine ?
Thanks!
dan

Media mail IS totally dependent on the originating post office. Some have managers/supervisors who say: If it comes in today, it goes out today. Others could give a rat's behind, and they let it pile up in a big hamper. When it gets too heavy to deal with, they load it on a truck to go to a sorting station.
don't get me started on the postal service. If junk mailers had to pay full freight on all the cr@p they send, OUR rates would still be about 14 cents for first class.
When did we all stop being citizens and start being consumers? We are subsidizing the junk mailers. My favorite revenge is taking one mailers stuff and putting it in another's prepaid envelope and sending it. If we all did that, maybe SOMEONE would wake up to the whole stupidity of junk mail.
OK-- off soapbox now.

10.6.8 Netboot - "Still waiting for root device"

Hi all,
I am having trouble with one particular 10.6.8 Netboot image that is hosted on a Mac Pro running 10.5.8 Server. (The main 10.5.8 Server is currently hosting about 15 other Netboot and Netrestore images that work with no problem.) I built the image on a 10.6.8 Server using System Image Utility from a fully updated 10.6.8 restore image on an external hard drive. The external drive was started up on MacBook, MacBook Pro, and iMac systems ranging from Late '06 to Early '11 revisions. Software update was run on every startup, but came back fully up-to-date every time and never encountered problems starting up each from the external drive.
I then ran Disk Utility permissions repair on the external drive from the 10.6.8 Server Mac Pro and built the Netboot image in System Image Utility. Although I am fairly new to this process, I have already successfully built several 10.6.8, 10.7.5, 10.8.5, and 10.9 Netrestore images as well as one 10.9 diagnostic Netboot that all work perfectly. I followed the same process when creating the 10.6.8 Netboot image.
The image I created, called 10.6.8 Diags 3.0, shows up in the Netboot list, but when I attempt to boot it shows the Apple logo for a bit before showing the "circle slash" symbol. Verbose mode shows that it hangs when starting and repeats "Still waiting for root device" over and over again and never does anything.
I have rebuilt the 10.6.8 Diags 3.0 Netboot image several times to rule out the possibility of corruption durring image creation. I have also tried to create the image from a Firewire attached external drive as well as building the data on the external drive into a .dmg on the 10.6.8 Server and then creating the image from that. All methods of creating the image yeild the same "Still waiting for root device" error when attempting to start up on any system supporting the 10.6.8 kernel.
Netboot settings in Server Admin are the same as other Netboot images that are functioning: enabled, diskless, Intel (grayed out), and NFS. I have verified that all enabled image index numbers are unique and even tried several different index numbers on the problem Neboot image.
Again, all other Netrestore images I created on the same 10.6.8 Server work just fine when added to the Netboot directory on the 10.5.8 Main Server, but the Netboot image of 10.6.8 Diags 3.0 does not. I'm not sure what else to try at this point, any ideas?

Ooooh. I've been reading similar pages on cidori.org and just assumed it was one of those. Remarkable how my google searches didn't find that one. Thanks for the pointer, and I'll go try it.
Thanks again, Dan.

HT1577 how do a get a refund on a ridiculously slow downloading rented movie for my apple tv dispite a 5mb/sec down load speed? my first experience with appletv movie rental. no good. rented at 4:30pm. still waiting for standard def movie to finish at 8:1

how do a get a refund on a ridiculously slow downloading rented movie for my apple tv dispite a >5mb/sec down load speed? my first experience with appletv movie rental. no good. rented at 4:30pm. still waiting for standard def movie to finish at 8:10pm. Not good enough.

Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

Still waiting for unlock code since 29th May

I am still waiting for an unlocking code from EE.I first contacted them on 29th May, then 31st May then 16th June, then 26th June, then 13th July, then 15th July.Each time I have spoken to customer services they have appologised profusely and assured me that the unlock code would be fast tracked. The last 2 calls promised me the money would be deducted from my credit on my orange PAYG account within 72 hours and the unlock code would be sent via email in 24 hours afterwards.My phone is xperia ST261.It is second hand, given to me by a friend who upgraded his phone with EE.I have an Orange PAYG simcard which I've had for over 15 years. I still wish to use this but also use a Lebara simcard, which is why I want the phone unlocked.I topped up with £10 so that there is sufficient money to pay the fee.I have filled in 2 or 3 requests online as I had 2texts from EE saying they couldn't continue with the request and that I needed to visit page...blah blah, fill in online unlock request form (again)I have spoken to 6 customer service reps who have also submitted the request....I should know my IMEI number by heart now!I took reference numbers of a couple of the reps but the last one insisted I just had his name and if I didn't get the code within 72 hours to call back and ask for him.......yeah right.call centre ''can I speak to ****'' that's going to happen!I'm really fed up now. I have a lovely phone that I cant use with my Lebara simcard.I am currently in Spain so going into an EE shop is not possible.My account is UK registered as is my simcardI top up by debit card (UK)So I've now been waiting 36 working days.I feel like I'm just being wound up by the call centre people with them keep fobbing me off.Mary

Hi
Really sorry to hear you are having problems.
Just to let you know I am looking into this for you.
If possible could you please send me a Private Message with your IMEI and Mobile number.
Thanks.

Still waiting for Android 5.0 in my Xperia Z3

This is the 3rd time that I write this topic ¿why you deleted them?
Is a simple question. I want to know how long time I need to wait to download Android 5 in my Xperia Z3 tablet. The update was announced in march, we are in June and I am still waiting for the update.
I live in Slovakia. Is this the reason? It is not available in Slovakia?
Please do not delete the post again.

Still waiting for up to date to be shipped?

I was curious to whether or not any other people are still waiting for their Mac OS X Leopard "up to date" cd to be shipped. I ordered mine on the 23rd and it still hasn't even been prepared for shipment at this time. I have spoken to a customer service manager but the issue with my order escaped her. She was going to be contacting her supervisor to see if they could see what was going on. She said I should expect a call back tomorrow.
I am being patient about the wait as i figure supply is exceeding demand, but I know of two people who purchased the "up to date" upgrade in the days after mine, and their cd's have already shipped.
Has your "up to date" shipped or are you still waiting. When did you order the CD?

I have ordered mine on 16th Oct..on the website it says shipped on 25th but its not here yet..:(
I called Apple thrice. The tracking number they provided is no good as they have shipped it using regular mail. Once they said it is going to take 5 days to be here in canada. Then a crazy sales rep gave me few instructions how to install leopard instead of actually finding out what happened to my shipment. The third time they said there has been "some problems with some of the DVDs" so they cancelled the initial shipment and are waiting for the new disks to become available for shipment....whatever that means. He said he will get back to me via email in 1 hour....it has been 2 days already ! They have charged my credit card and the tracking site shows an invoice with all the number and stuff...Strange behavior from Apple...

I am using Vodafone at Delhi India with my Iphone 5S, 3g is activated with my number but i am not getting 3G signals iphone is also activated with vodafone but still waiting for 3G signals contacted vodafone but wasted my time pls help using APN www

I am using Vodafone at Delhi India with my Iphone 5S, 3g is activated with my number but i am not getting 3G signals iphone is also activated with vodafone but still waiting for 3G signals contacted vodafone but wasted my time pls help using APN www

Keep on talking to Vodafone and keep pestering them until you get a satisfactory answer. Whether you get a 3G signal or not, is entirely the responsibility of Vodafone India because they are your carrier/phone company and nobody here can help you with that on a public user to user technical support forum.
Contact Vodafone as they are the only ones who can help you.

5 months + and still waiting for a phone line

27/05/2013 Placed order for line and broadband. Paid for 1 year service in advance.
This was to reconnect a line I had cancelled in in January as we started a major re-fit/renovation at our house and were out of it for 4 months. Transferred line to a new address at this time (different exchange)
18/06/2013 Engineer scheduled to visit. - Waited in for 6hours, no one turned up, no contact made
19/06/2013 No one got in touch. I telephoned. Problem with line. New appointment made for Monday 15 July 2013
15/07/2013 Engineer did not turn up, no contact made again after waiting in most of day.
16/07/2013 I called and told work on line not completed. They needed to do external work. Given assurance I would get a call on 21/07/2013 as work scheduled to be completed by then. It had been accelerated (had been told this before come to think of it)
21/07/13 No one called, again
22/07/2013 I called and told work still not completed but would be by 25/07/2013 so to call back and arrange an engineer visit appointment
25/07/2013 I called , told work still not completed, would get a call by 29/07/2013 when work will be completed – to arrange another engineer visit. I filed online complaint
29/07/2013 no call. I called, no update, call again in 2 weeks
Numerous calls in August, and 2 online complaints. Now getting texts telling me there is no update and promising to get in touch by a certain date, they don't. New line needed as exchange reached capacity. Old line no good, have to lay a new one. Still being told order will be accelerated. Still waiting for the "advisor in our delays team to monitor the job and contact the engineers for a full investigation to be done so we can provide you with an accurate update."
Still more calls in September along with numerous calls (me) and 2 from BT to say they have no update!
Still being told the biggest load of rubbish as an excuse, eg me "but I had an active line in January" you "ah that is openreaches fault, they come and physically rip out and remove the wiring if a line is cancelled" or: BT- "we cant talk to openreach ourselves, we can only email them" me - "that's funny as your colleague on the last call claimed to have spoken
with them after leaving me on hold for 5 minutes"
October. Called today. ( now have a telephone number with a PIN number) Still no progress. They started digging on September 5th according to one email. I asked were they using a tea spoon, they even replied in email NO!
What am I supposed to do now. I am to get an update "tomorrow", but going by all previous updates it will be we will call again in 10 days - the don't. Time spent waiting for engineers - 2 days, time spent on phone/emails etc - 5+ hours.

Single User Mode: Still waiting for root device

iMac G4.
I reset the NVRAM, PRAM. It won't attempt to boot from anything but a OS 10.4 cd; booting from OS 9 cd just leaves me at the flashing question mark icon.
If I try to boot from OS X cd, it comes back with the prohibitory sign.
If I try to boot into single user mode, it gives me a bunch of "...."has no kernal dependency lines, then a 'still waiting for root device' line, and repeats that.
Something to the effect before the 'still waiting for root device' is "Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProvider-Class</key><string ID="1">IOResouces</string><key>IOResouceMatch></key><string ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict>"
Any help please?

Nevermind...I found out that the hard drive was bad...still puzzles me why it wouldn't boot from CD though, as I thought they all should even if no drive is present.

Still waiting for a response from Adobe regarding the post "Printing a pdf from a marked-up pdf".

Still waiting for a response from Adobe regarding the post "Printing a pdf from a marked-up pdf" dated 15 Dec 2012 9:20 AM.

Look everyone that comes here with a support problems has gone through all the normal channels, around and round in circles with no one seeming to be interested. They've called every phone number, every email address they can find. They have been put on hold and bounced fifty times to another operator only to be hung up on. If Adobe would bring back support to main land and have people that know what's going on instead of having people that people can barely understand read from scripts. Scripted information only applies about 10 % of the time. I'm just giving people an alternative. after they have torn their hair out going the normal route. If they had been able to get a solution they wouldn't be coming here for help.
There should be a forum set up just for people to air these issues and Adobe employees forced to man it. Then we wouldn't have to have such a Bad attitude. Right now Adobe's Support reputation is worse than Intuit's which did have the absolutely worse on the Planet. Now they are number 2.
You know it yourself that Adobe's support is absolutely worse than terible. However to prevent me from being banned from the forums I will simply will provide the adobecare email address from now on
So let's sweep it under the rug.

IBook is not starting up - "still waiting for root device"

The 600 MHz / 640 MB / 20 GB iBook did not want to wake up and after forced shutdown would not start up. grey screen. With MacOS X CD - "prohibition sign", MacOs 9 - no start at all
I had 2 partitions on the HD one with Tiger and other with 9.2.2 - none of them appear in the list of startUp folders. would not go into the Target mode.
I know there are few threads here with similar problem - I went through them but nothing of the suggestions would help.
Did reset the PRAM (only once though) - when I still heard the startUp chime
Did reset PMU
Left the machine unplugged for about 12 hours
Now I managed to get into single user mode while attempting to start up from a Tiger DVD. Here is what I see on the screen:
"using 1638 buffer headers and 1638 cluster IO headers
Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleTexas2Audio" has no kernel dependency.
(then there are 14 extensions listed that has no kernel dependency)
Firewire (OHCI) Apple ID 30 built-in now active, GUID 000393ff fe6ce976; max speed s400.
ADB present: 8c

Still waiting for root device
still waiting for root device
and so on with "still waiting..." again and again
also I did not hear start up sound anymore. Yesterday it was still audible.... can someone please help?!
iBook dual USB Mac OS X (10.4.5)

thanx for replying. Last night I finally managed to start up the machine using a FireWire ext HD as a StartUp Disk. Disk Utility and TechTool Pro and Disk Warrior are not showing the internal HD at all.
Since I was not able to use any start CDs including original MacOs X and 9 Cds maybe it is a problem with Data Cable that connects both HD and optical drive with logic board? It is hard to imagine why it would come to something like that. Overheat? I did not have enough free space on Tiger partition - 1GB. Maybe that. I am starting to look for a replacement HD....

HT1937 Hi thier I'm still waiting for my phone to be unlocked

Hi thier I'm still waiting for my phone to be unlocked

Contact your carrier. Only they would know what the status of your unlock request is. Nobody here would know as we are users like you.
Apple does not unlock phones; the carriers do.

I've forgotten the security question answers, still waiting for reset email, what should i do ????
