How long do you have to wait????

Hi All,
I ordered an iMac from the local retail store on the 1st Feb (20" 2G intel, 1GB RAM, 500MB HDD and 256MB Video). It has yet to arrive.
How long is the typical wait in Australia to receive your order?
I think 3 weeks is a bit too long, especially when many people can get a stock iMac off the web in a few days. How long does it take Apple to install a hard drive and some extra ram?
The guys at the store have no idea - the system just says "processing". No ETA's or offers to find out when it may arrive. Humpf!
I am becoming irritated with the wait - I want my new toy!

Thanks.
I checked with the store and the status as changed ti "in progress". I expect it to ship from Sydney early next week, so delivery will be late next week.
Can't wait....

  • HT5037 It all started when I couldn't order a Photo Book ... then I had to download Mavericks ... then the i-photo update ... How long DO you have to wait before you know if you actually have downloaded this?

    It all started when I could not order a Photo Book ... then I had to download Mavericks ... then I tried to upgrade i-photo ... but it would not take my debit card ... so I had to find a credit card ... then it would download, but it took hours and did not confirm that it had downloaded ... which it hadn't because I still can't order a photo pbook ... then it would download ( but I suspect I may have had to pay for it twice ) .... and now i-photo won't open because it says I need the Library Upgrader ... and it too seems to have stopped halfway through downloading.
    I JUST WANT TO ORDER A PHOTO BOOK.  I HAVE THE MONEY.  WHY ALL THE PROBLEMS?  WHY, OH WHY, OH WHY?

    Perhaps, as your problem seems to be with the App Store, you need to post on that forum or contact App Store support - there's a link on the right hand side of the App Store window.
    A small tip: explaining your problem clearly is best. Wrapping it all up in idiosyncratic punctuation and histrionics doesn't make it any easier to understand, and gets in the way of solving your problem.

  • So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    Adobe releases Camera Raw every 3 or 4 months. The D600 itself was launched only about 1 week ago. I'm sure its not included in ACR 7.2 RC yet. Nikon J1 is included though. I guess you're gona have to wait for it. Maybe 7.2 final release will have it or 7.3 should. Adobe employees/ product team will not commit to a time for Camera Raw releases.
    However, you can use the software Nikon would've given you to convert your images as TIFF and import them into Lightroom/ Photoshop if you're in a hurry. It would be nice if your camera supports DNG conversion out of the box! This way, you wont need a Camera Raw from Adobe.
    Anyway, you could file a 'Feature Request' to Adobe here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Good luck.

  • How long do I have to wait till I can access Aperture? I have files to deliver to clients and they want them NOW!

    I went to open Aperture and got the message that "Aperture can not be opened while it is being updated"..... I have thousands of photos in there and as soon as I can get access I will be dumping Aperture and moving to Lightroom. I used Aperture for all my photography work and only rarely used Photoshop. Aperture could handle just about everything I needed and now I can’t even access my OWN FILES? Bad move Apple, it looks like the last time I’ll ever buy Apple software.
    How long do I have to wait till I can access Aperture? I have files to deliver to clients and they want them NOW!
    Aperture Version 3
    iMac (27-inch Mid 2011
    OSX version 10.9.3
    Processor 3.4 GHZ Intel Corei7
    Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

    I spent the best part of a day moving Aperture files onto a Glyph 6TB StudioRaid in the hope that I could open the files I need on my MacBook Pro. I get set up and then find that I can’t open any of the files because they are all Aperture 3.4.5 or thereabouts and the copy of Aperture that I have on the Mac book Pro is 3.2.4. It cannot open the newer version of the files. The MacBook Pro is running OSX 10.6.8 I can't upgrade Aperture on there apparently.
    I then go back to the iMac and dump the latest copy of Aperture, re-install Aperture Version 3 and it tells me " You can't use this version of the application " Aperture.app" 3.0 with this version OSX. I'm using OSX 10.9.4 on the iMac.  I have NEVER had problems with Aperture until this last incident.
    Now I am in big trouble. I'll set up an appointment at the local Apple Genius bar and see if I can talk to someone tonight.

    If you cannot turn off your MBP, hold the power button down for 10+ seconds.
    Then try a SMC reset:

  • Hey guys ,  Will there be a Logic Studio X and how long do i have to wait?

    hey guys ,  Will there be a Logic Studio X and how long do i have to wait?

    I'm sure there will be a new version of Logic Pro (10/X?) but the real question is: When?
    Most software developers are tight-lipped when it comes to release dates, but Apple makes them look like blabbermouths in comparison.  Also, it's difficult to make any predictions based on previous release cycles because of the decision to discontinue Logic Studio and sell Logic Pro in the App Store.  Obviously, Apple is going through some changes.
    Apple have been offering software updates and no doubt will be offering upgrades via the App Store in the future, in which case buying Logic Pro 9 now and upgrading at some point to Logic Pro 10 should work out to about the same price as waiting to buy LP10.

  • How long will you have the movie if you rent it on iTunes

  • HT1657 How long do I have to wait before I can rent a movie

    How long do I have to wait

    You don't need to wait at all before you can rent a movie.
    If you mean how long have you got to wait before you can watch it, that's very much depends on your Internet connection speed.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    For instant viewing 1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • How long do i have to wait for the iPhone dev license?

    Hello all..
    I am waiting now for serveral weeks (6!) for my developer licence... but nothing.. no email, no response (just the autogenerated one) from apple (i wrote 2 mails yet..)
    i would just like to know how long did you wait everybody? A friend of mine (and colleague) has also send the request weeks ago now.. the same: no response.. is it maybe for firms easier to get it?
    i bought a macbook air and an iPhone - just do develop.. and i really have to say that i am disappointed.
    i mean: we have really good ideas (at least, we think so) and are doing mobile apps also as our diploma thesis for university.. but we cant test the software without this sh.. licence.
    apple, go on that way and you will lose many creative minds. we all know that your marketing is special, but this is just.. stupid. android is waiting, the opened symbian is waiting.. so, what are you doing?
    for everybody who is in the same situation, read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WaitingforGodot

    just call them by phone..

  • How long do you have to stay away to be treated like a new customer?

    Comcast offers these great deals to new customers, but won't do anything to try to retain loyal customers who are sick of their bills increasing. Right now I am paying $30 more per month for internet only than a new customer would pay for the same internet speed, plus local channels and HBO. Customer service won't do anything to help, other than offer to downgrade my internet speed. How long do I have to not be a customer to be treated the way they treat new customers?

    hi ive requsted a activation code to unlock my phone to giffgaff how long do i have to wait

    there is no code to unlock phones.  You ask the carrier that the phone is locked to unlock the phone, only the carrier is authorized to unlock the phone.
