2 weeks + wait for in-store order

I normally order most everything online ... and that's what I should have done for the iPad. The local store was happy to tell me that those who went on the waitlist received their iPad within 2 days - 1 week ... over two weeks later, still no dice. Bah.

I feel your pain. I'm on the list at 2 Apple stores, been 13 days. When I cheked with Best Buy there were no stores within a 50 mile radius that had any. My wife gave me an Apple gift card for Father's day as a surprise so Best But would be a pain since I would have to cancel the gift card back to the credit card, if they would do that. Guess I'm stuck in the prefered pit.

  • Message: "Waiting for App Store to download Mac OS X Server Add on"

    Trying to install 10.7 (from 10.6.8) on Mac Mini server 4,1. I don't use it as a server, and don't know anything about that.I get a message "Waiting for App Store to download Mac OS X Server Add on" check download at App store. There is none. Help?
    Mac Mini Server 4.1/2.66 GHz/Intel Core 2 Duo/8 GB Memory

    Ran into this myself on a new MacMini Server. I renamed the ServerVersion.plist file in /System/Library/CoreServices/. That allowed the install to start. Unfortunately it seems the installer is setup to install that at the same time. I renamed the file back before the restart and it complained on restart that the server install wasn't found.
    So I thought I would try downloading it on another computer with Lion. That didn't work either. As soon as it finished download it installed and deleted the installer.
    What a pain.
    If you can start from scratch, you should be able to rename the file, do the Lion install then after the Lion install rename it back. Then do the server install. I'm not sure what that will do to existing server configs though. There must be some reason Apple set up the Lion installer this way.
    Oh, now I can't reboot into my existing OS. It keeps rebooting into the installer. Tried the option key and both options are named something like base os. Neither boots my existing Snow Leopard. Gonna have to get an external DVD drive and install from scratch I think. Luckily this is a new server not in production, so not a big deal. I hope people with production machines read the boards and tread carefully.

  • What is meant by  waiting for app store to download mac os x server add on.

    Can't get past that step to upgrade xserver from 10.6.8 to 10.7.  I am trying to upgrade my xserver 10.6.8 to 10.7.  I have purchased the os x lion and the lion server, and they are both downloaded on the machine, but it will not let me get past the step of waiting for app store to download mac os x server add on.  Anyone know what that is or where I can get it?  App store never starts a download. tia

  • Waiting for App Store to download Mac OS X Server Add On.

    Hi there,
    I am trying to upgrade Mac OS X Server to Mac Lion Server. I get this message when i try to install the OS X Lion
    Waiting for App Store to download Mac OS X Server Add On.
    Please help.

    the message is normal, you are requested to wait!
    check that, when "install" is pressed in App Store a new icon should go to your dock (the "install MacOSX lion" application itself).
    the upgrade is up to 4Gb and apple serves at no more than 200-400Kbps (at least to my country), so be patient.
    If you need more patience, but JUST NOOOOOWWW!!! =)
    then you can see your network activity in Utilities -> Activity Monitor -> Network
    Let us know if there is no Activity during the download!
    And also if you successfully install lion!

  • 2 week wait for serial number to CS6 (education) help please?

    Hi, I need help with this! I really dont know what to do next!    i bought a copy of CS6 (education) over two weeks ago, when it (disc) arrived next day I logged in, created an account and emailed off relevant proofs and numbers. Nothing, three days later i phoned Adobe (UK) and (eventually) spoke to somebody who passed me on to the 'activation team', I was on hold for half an hour until I gave up. Next day i waited till 9am on the dot and tried again, was put on to activation team quite fast and spoke to a chap who opened up a 'case', and asked me to send all the documentation again, which i did. The next day I got an email saying that only one of the documents had arrived, strange thought i, however i sent them again. I could see that all the documentation was then there in the'open cases' section, so I waited, and waited...... it has now been two over two weeks since i bought CS6, I phoned Adobe again this morning, spoke to customer serviced who were very helpful, but still had to pass me on.......i waited for 42 minutes then hung up.
    I really dont know what to do next, I even tried Adobe in the States, they said they could not help (I am based in the UK) I have been waiting so long that my course has actually finished!! Any suggestions anyone???? 

    Hi porkerholic,
    I apologise for the delay in providing the serial number.
    I am getting the concerned team involved to expedite the process.
    Do you have any Case number for reference?

  • Phone line dead, over 2 week wait for possible rep...

    Hi there
    I'm posting on behalf of my Mum who cannot post in the forum as her phone line/broadband are currently down.
    On Friday 4th January 2013 she noticed the phone was dead, and also that the Internet had stopped working. She rang the usual number BT provides and was told by an Indian chap that there is a fault but there won't be anybody available to look at it until 21st January 2013! She was not provided with any reference numbers to track the case or anything which didn't help.
    Bear in mind my Mum is in her late 60's and relies on the phone to keep in contact with relatives, and this is especially important since my Dad died.
    I am aware that Openreach are busy yadda yadda, but it is simply not acceptable for her to wait over 2 weeks for someone to at least have a look at it! She has spoken to her neighbours and they were having problems originally which now appear to have been sorted.
    I am worried that not only will she have to wait but that she will charged a ridiculous fee for any repairs, even though the fault is not anything that she has caused. Also I am not happy that BT are going to charge for zero service for a two week period, surely this is essentially robbery?
    Is there anyway I can get this escalated, and is there anyway I can get the charges she will receive refunded?
    I have already contacted someone in the forum via e-mail but I don't think it worked as I was using my brother's mobile at the time.
    Thanks in advance

    You're welcome. Also, I understand that your mum can have al her calls diverted to an alternative number and there is some form of compensation available for loss of service....I'll see if I can find the details.....I've seen them somewhere
    BT will not pay you compensation they will only refund your line and BB rental if your phone has not been repaired after the end of the 3rd working day also if you have your line diverted you are not entitled to this refund.

  • What's been the wait for in store reserves

    In particular the Southlake one.
    Thanks

    I have no idea in your area but I live in Central New Jersey and walked into an Apple Store at a mall and walked out with an iphone4-32g today... no priority list, no waiting. Apple made me happy today..

  • It has been 2 weeks waiting for my recycle/shipping envelope to send back my iphone 4??

    any idea when i will get it -and why in the world can't we get thru by phone to a phone company -crazy! I have been trying for 4 days now. I have a submission number but have yet to receive envelope...i got my phone already?

        I know receiving your Trade in Shipment envelopes is important, lyndr! Due to an immense amount of orders this process can take more time then expected. I know getting our hands on the gift cards is important to offset the phone cost but I do want to mention that you have until 12/1/14 to return your phone. In the meantime, you can continue to inquire here:http://vz.to/1vv5AdM.

  • Waiting for sprint note 4 pre order

    Pre ordered device on Oct 15,was told it would be there release day the 17th. Come to find out it still hasn't shipped. I called 1877 bby mobile number and they called the store and was told they will not be receiving any this week. So now another week waiting for a phone... No one at the store is any help besides telling me to cancel my order. Horrible, terrible experience. I get no answer from corporate. This is unacceptable.

    Hello JPodlewski-
    Thank you for pre-ordering the Note 4, I know that you place your order on Oct. 15th in hopes to have it by the release date of October 17th.
    I apologize for any misinformation that you may have received, as placing a pre-order only guarantees you a phone in the order in which the orders were received, not necessarily on the day it was released. Please be assured that when we receive additional inventory from Samsung, Best Buy will contact you so that you to fulfill your pre-order. I regret that I don't have better news for you.
    Sincerely,

  • Store Order Update

    Hi,
    Would like to know if BAPI_STOREORDER_CHANGE changes the Store order details. If so, what are the parameters which need to be passed to it. This would reflect the changes in the EKES table for the Store Order.
    If not please do let me know the other BAPI to change the Store orders and the other parameters which needs to be passed.
    This is what I have to do -
    When there is a confirmation qty from the Vendor, i have to distribute this qty to its corresponding store orders. This splitting of qty should be done based on the qty they had ordered. Now this should be updated in the EKES table for the corresponding Store Orders.
    Thanks

  • Just what IS the procedure for App Store review (and resubmit)?

    So when I submit an app for the first time I understand why there would be a 1 week, even 2 week wait for someone at Apple to review it. Actually, it's quite a luxury to have Apple experts to review and test an app for me.
    Last time I did this, in about 10 days after submission they spotted a relatively minor issue (there wasn't an alert panel when there was no internet connection and the user tried a search). OK fine. So I implemented one.
    Another 10 days or so later I get another rejection, this time for another minor issue - one that I was able to fix in about 10 minutes of coding. A total of 15 minutes after getting the rejection email from Apple, the new binary was submitted.
    Do I wait another 10 days again?
    Is it the same person who reviews the "revisions" at least?
    Isn't there a better way?
    A 10-day turnaround for even the smallest incremental fix, with potentially a different person reviewing the app each time (and do they do a "full" review each time?) seems awfully inefficient ... not to mention frustrating.
    Does anyone have any (real) insights as to how the process works?
    Thanks,

    Search this forum - your question has been answered before. In a nutshell Apple has no idea what you changed when you resubmit a fix for a rejected app. So it goes back to the end of the line. I'd bet 9.5 of the 10 days your app was just sitting in a queue waiting to be looked at.
    But each time you submit, someone must do a full regression test because they have no idea what you might have changed. I know it's frustrating. It would be nice to get one rejection with a list of all the little things instead of getting rejected on the first flaw. Wait 10 days - oops, another minor flaw.
    But it sure is good incentive to test the heck out of your own app. As a single developer it's the hardest part (at least for me). I know my app inside and out. It's best to get a 2nd set of eyes. A non-developer is even better. Get a real user. They will point out all the little things like a missing alert or what not. As the developer you don't always worry about such a small detail. But Apple is big on user experience. Think like a user.
    Speaking of which, it's time for me to put my user hat on. I'm polishing my app right now. Details, details, details.

  • BT bb option 1 while I wait for infinity engineer

    Just joined BT activation date for bb is now 20th after first date came and went with no bb. I was just looking on the website at my services and I've found out that I will be on BT bb option 1 while I wait for a BT infinity engineer to install that part! Now I noticed that there is a 10g usage limit on this package and I know I will far exceed this in the 4 weeks waiting for the engineer. I have been informed that no charges occur in the first month got exceeding this limit, but is this true and will my bb service stop if I go over the 10gb usage limit?? Advice would be much appreciated! Cheers!

    yes that is true for the first month you go over limit there is no excess charge and no if you go over it does not stop
