This afternoon TNT told me, it won't be delivered anymore today (May, 28th).
They also couldn't tell me if they will deliver it tomorrow on saturday("..maybe, maybe not, everything can happen...").
However, they offered me to call their hotline on saturday morning around 09:00
because they might answer the hotline shortly around this time, so that I
can ask for the status and maybe get it at their depot myself (they are even
offering this at their swiss homepage now) - just a 100 km roundtrip drive for
me....
Anybody else in Switzerland still waiting for the delivery ?
I am somewhat unimpressed that they were overwhelmed by this task as Apple
should have been able to tell them about the volume before (this was a preorder
over 2 weeks ago...) ?
Should not have preordered but bought on launch day in the shops like many other people today....

IPad arrived finally today.
I have to thank the drivers and delivery personal of TNT for their tremendous personal efforts.
However about Apple and TNT Logistic Management, I am not so sure...
Nethertheless, this was the last time that I preordered with Apple..

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 root device

I had an XServ serve that we could not get Profile Manager running after the 2.2 update in Dec 2012. Re tried rolling back various folder since we have time machine running and backing up to an external Apple RAID. Eventually I gave up anddecided it was time to restore the whole server from Time Machine. I booted the XServ up with a 10.8 DVD and Chose "Restore Server from Backup". I then chose one of the full backups it listed. It restored the Time Machine backup. However, when it boots. I get the Apple logo and then a circle with a slash and a pinwheel. Booting in Single User mode I find it is constantly waiting at " Still waiting for root device" and goes no further.
The internal hard drives in the XServe are a RAID as well as having the external Apple rack mounted RAID connected via a card in the XServe.

See if you can start up in Safe Mode. This will take awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, and repair permissions on it.
If you can't start up in Safe Mode, maybe something in this Apple Knowledge Base article will help:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106805
Or it may be time to invest in a disk utility such as DiskWarrior.

PANTHER on Wallstreet: "Still waiting for Root device"

I have problems installing panther on my wallstreet with Xpostfacto.
I could install CD1 but it didn't accept CD2 (installer was waiting for the CD2, inserted it, nothing happened)
Then I did a clean install (format disks in OS9, etc), only to find out that now it will not even load the first OSX install CD, "Still waiting for Root device" in verbose mode.
I try to load the CD again, it starts spinning for a second and then seems to stall.
Everything works fine however in OS9: the CD drive and the OSX install CD's
This is my config:
Wallstreet G3 233 mhz (M4753) 14,1 inch no USB
Powerlogix G4/500 upgrade card
OS 9.1 (I can install 9.2.2 if necessary)
Xpostfacto (only option: "PatchedRagePro" to avoid purple video)
Panther install CD's
If someone could help me out, I'd be very thankfull!!

Walvis,
Not much to offer but a few suggestions.
With all peripherals removed including PC cards and mouse, I would shut down, then reset the PRAM and startup into 9.x and try XPostFacto again to boot the Panther CD.
If unsuccessful, you might try trashing XPostFacto and reinstalling it; be sure to trash the XPostFacto log in the Preferences folder.
How much installed RAM is present? If you have more than 256MB, consider removing one of the modules, then try your install. For whatever reason, the OSX installer can't deal with more than 256MB of RAM on some Wallstreets although I do believe the use of XPostFacto mitigates this.
The PowerLogix upgrade card may also play a role.
I would head over to the XPostFacto Forums and read about the install issues on the Wallstreet in the Powerbook Forums.

Really poor customer service - still waiting for B...

Just a quick post to see if a moderator could help me…or as a last attempt for BT to at least acknowledge my recent complaint (or apologize).
I’d be interested to hear if other users have had similar problems (to any one of mine as it crosses different forum topics)…
I’d like to think I’m writing as an objective and reasonable customer and a loyal customer at that. Suffice it to say, in this competitive marketplace, I’ve not been impressed with BT in the last 3 months.
My automated email complaints response is 110110-007990 (if that helps).
Given my numerous attempts to make contact with the BT customer services team; I am doubtful that I shall receive the courtesy of a reply. I do not intend to repeat my complaint in detail here but in a nutshell, following the home move team promising various things such as:
1) a waiver of the line installation charge if I continue a full service package (which I gather is £127.99 for flicking a switch at the exchange);
2) a reduction in my billing generally (as I was “out of contract” for around 6 months so I was paying a DD around £65 p.m for line rental, basic phone, Broadband opt 2 and basic BT vision);
3) an expedited home move switchover within days (not weeks).
However, none of this happened and like many recent posts my billing has gone crazy. To cut a long story short BT have renegaded on all the promises made and the switchover service has been, at best, terrible.
1) I was in fact billed for an install plus delivery charges (£8.98) for a superfluous BT home hub and BT vision box (which never turned up).
2) My bills (and DD) have risen to a level which I simply cannot fathom as the BT invoicing system requires a degree in accounting to understand.
3) And after ordering on the 3rd December, I’m still waiting for my broadband activation after the phone line was only activated late last week. (To add insult I was told that an engineer would call (so took a day off to also receive the broadband kit) and allow access if required but it was cancelled and rescheduled twice). Now hoping for the 18th Jan – 37 days after ordering – woohoo.
I’m now seriously thinking of leaving …. There’s no incentive for me to stay now I’ve been charged and that charges have increased beyond the VAT increase. I suppose one customer like me will not make a difference to the BT annual report, but if my experience is typical of how customers are treated; if I were a BT shareholder I would be worried.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Cheers. for the first 6 months it was a locked ip profile, always reset after phoning bangalor and speaking to the "have you reset your router" robots. for a few hours or a day or more, I'd get 2-3mbps then crash, back down to 135kbps. The mods here (after first banning me for reposting what they had mailed me) were quite helpful, I think they were/are frustrated that there is little they can do for genuine line quality problems, the ones that will cost money/time/effort to sort. Actually time and effort didnt seem to be a problem, I had no end of openreach blokes come to the house, sometimes 2 came at once, all with the same stories of woe, trackers in their vans, being sent out on useless jobs they had already reported were down to line faults/quality but being sent out again and again. And not just to me, I had the same guy just a couple of times but all were routinely demoralised with some kind of deep routed hatred for their managers that due to the trackers were now able to see where they were at any time.
bonkers mate, like I care what they think of their manager. at first when i mentioned the problem with using the broadband and phone together, there seemed to be some interest but when the problem was confirmed, the umbrellas came up, broadband said it was the lline, the line people said it was the broadband. line people also said when they test, the bb will be unplugged and if there is no fault, i will have to pay 130-ish quid. thing is the phone works ok without the bb plugged in. i tried everything, new adsl socket, standing on one leg, the lot. then got a capped 500kbps rate for option2. at least then i didnt get back to 135kbps everyday.
i signed a new contract in november, god knows why, Im now buying myself out of it.
there's one born everyday eh?
if bt were really interested in helping they would send out a smart person that would try and figure out why my neighbour gets 3mbps and i get 500kbps at a capped rate and 135kbps at the adaptive rate technology has done its business on my connection. I've had 3 routers sent to me, Ive bought a netgear all were no help. Its the line bt!!!! somewhere there is a fault. yes im far from the exchange, so is the guy next door!

Still waiting on a 64G Black ATT iPhone?

I preordered my 64G Black ATT iPhone on 9/14 at 10:24 a.m. It is now 28 days since the launch. Is anyone else still waiting on this phone?

I see that you post quite often about your troubles with BB and the iphone 5. I wanted to share my story with you. I preordered the phone at my local store in Westbury, NY. Launch day came and went, with no phone for me. I preordered the 32G black for ATT, FYI. I kept calling every couple of days to see if there were any updates, but got little to no information. I figured I would start checking stock online, and came to find that other area BB stores had inventory on 64G and some 16G. I called every store every day that showed inventory and was told this was an error in their inventory system. However one miraculous Saturday morning, one said they would hold the phone for me. This was last Saturday. I asked them what the issue was and though they didn't have an answer, I at that point didn't care. I finally had my phone. I still haven't gotten a call or email about my preorder either. My suggestion to you is use apple.com at 9:55pm local time and get it that way. BB has seriously dropped the ball on this one.

Still waiting for confirmation

been waiting since 9am anyone else still waiting.

You may have to do what I had to:
1. My BT
2. Extras > BT Sport > Learn more
3. Get the app and online player.
Hope that helps.

Delivery document is still open even already invoiced

Good day! Could anyone help me on this?
Here is the scenario:
A new delivery document was created based in sales order. The delivery undergoes to approval procedure and then approved.
Upon posting of the delivery doc and after past few days, sales return was requested. So, sales return was processed and successfully posted based in that delivery doc, but later that day another sales return was requested and did same procedure (successful).
Two sales return was created based in that delivery doc and both SR were 'closed' while the delivery doc is still open, now to close that DR an invoice doc is required. Invoice was made base again in that DR and successfully posted. Expectedly, the DR should close but apparently it doesn't close. Why is that? Or did I miss something that would close that DR?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Nagesh,
Yes your right, all marketing docs undergone with approval procedure are all saved as Draft until it was approved by the approver and then posted by the originator and that is the only time DR or any marketing docs should be called as official/posted transaction.
Going back to my scenario, what I mentioned was approved and posted meaning the transaction was officially saved and undergone with the normal module flow SO->DR->SR->SI.
And my concern was focused on why DR is still open even already invoiced.
Correct me if I'm wrong, DR will still remain 'Open' only if the item total qty was not yet invoiced. For example:
DR1              QTY            Amount
Item 1             10              100
SI
Item 1              8                80
Thanks,
Rhod

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.

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 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.

My Facebook and Weather Channel app are still waiting after the update to ios6

Since I updated yesterday afternoon all of my purchased apps are not showing on the wall and two of my apps are still waiting to be updated. I have shut my phone down and restarted it plus logged into FB through my settings.

I just found this post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16197528#16197528
Apparently, my setup of using a symlink (created in Terminal via "ln -s") for my "Movies" folder in my home directory to a different directory on the same HD had something to do with the problem. I removed the symlink and moved the folder back into my home folder. Then FCPX prompted to upgrade my projects. I'm backing them up now before trying to do that. ;^)
So the bug is apparently that FCPX cannot work correctly with Mac OS's filesystem features… :-(
