How long does it take it to be built and shipped?

I'm waiting for a new Powermac for work and they tell me they ordered it 4 weeks ago...is this length of time typical?

I don't know about the business ordering, but 4 weeks is an unusually long time. Most orders would go out in a few days at most, but it all depends on what options were ordered. When I ordered my G5 Quad several years ago, it was a 7 - 8 week wait due to the graphics card I ordered. I don't see any such constraints on the Apple store now for a Mac Pro (which is what I assume was ordered - PowerMacs haven't been made for over three years now).

    it takes hours
    it does not damage or wear out hardware
    and you can restore any backup afterwards as yo see fit

  • What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD?

    What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD in any company?

    Anand,
    let me start with saying that the question you ask may not help you to determine the duration of your project. As Ryan and others stated the duration of the project is highly dependent on the scope of the solution you are implementing, geographical scope, amount of modifications/enhancements, number of languages, number of users that need to be trained, amount of standard processes customer is able to re-use in the implementation and many other factors (like quality of implementation contractor you will chose and availability of customer and implementors resources). I can probably go on for another couple lines, but I guess you get the idea.
    With that out of the way let's talk about some example implementations that will give you an idea - Ryan did great job outlining what I would call traditional approach above. I have couple examples where customers leveraged innovative deployment strategies that are available today. In particular the project teams leveraged pre-packaged services like RDS, World Template or Best Practices as their baseline solution and they built from there. Second acceleration technique customers now leverage is the deployment in the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud to accelerate the time to initial setup of the system and thus move from traditional blueprinting to scope validation exercise that further shortens the time. There are other acceleration techniques we see applied in some cases like use of iterative implementation of the delta requirements on top of the baseline solution.
    Let me offer few examples to illustrate what I explained above:
    ERP implementation at Schaidt Innovations with 3 months long deployment of ERP solution using ERP RDS as a baseline (you can view their testimonial here - Schaidt Innovations: SAP ERP on HANA in the cloud - YouTube)
    Customer in Asia with global template deployment that leveraged SAP ERP for Manufacturing with deployment to cloud and 9 countries rollout (Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, UK, Germany and US). The initial deployment took 4 months for first country and 2 months for rollout into the additional 8 countries - so total of 6 months. The original plan using traditional approach with full blueprint and heavy configuration was estimated to be more than double of the actual deployment time.
    There are many other examples where customers follow the assemble-to-order delivery model for their project and gain significant benefits doing so. I suggest you to review some of the recordings we did in 2013 about this approach and if you are member of ASUG review the Agile ASAP sessions we did for ASUG PM SIG.

  • How long does it take to down load Firefox and how do I know it is down loading

    I have tried to down load firefox and during the down load iot tells me it starts at 1 minute remaining and it climbs fro this to 3 hours and I cancel the down load. How long does the down load take and how do I know it is down loading?

    WOO-HOOOOOO!  I got it all back!!  Yayyyyy! (jumping up and down).  You see, this is a picture file I've been working on for almost 15 years.
    OK.  Here's the skinny... I finally got an appointment with the Apple Store to discuss with a technician.  He went through the same steps I did (C-Opt-iPhoto) and then trying to repair, then rebuild the folder.  He tried several other options, which I had also tried, thank you to the Community Discussion boards!    He kept puzzling over the icon in front of my " iPhoto Library.photolibrary ".  It had a blank document in front of it, instead of the iPhoto icon.  Even though I could pull up every one of my pictures via Preview, I just could not get them to upload or open in iPhoto.
    He suggested I go back yet another day from the incident-day which messed up my library.  Skeptically, I did... (which I'd done quite a few times before).  EXCEPT.  This time, as I looked at my December 3, 2012 Pictures folder, there were some other files in it.  I had only been hi-lighting the iPhoto Library and trying to Restore.  You don't suppose...?  I hi-lighted everything in the Pictures folder, pressed Restore... and it started to transfer.  I waited perhaps 45 minutes.  (I had a 73GB file.)  But it restored everything - even the Events.
    Crux:  If iPhoto doesn't seem to be able to Restore your iPhoto Library, choose ALL the files in your backed-up Pictures folder (not just the iPhoto Library).  The technician's clue to me was he didn't think some needed sub-folders got transferred.  He was right. The visual indication was, when I opened Finder, the icon in front of it was a blank document.  It needs to have the iPhoto icon or some needed sub-folder didn't get transferred.
    I hope this helps!!
    Thanks for all the support!

  • How long does it take to get the box to ship my Nano in???

    I sent a repair request for my Nano (the one on recall) and I only get 10 business days to get it back to them. I submitted the request on Nov 12th, received and e-mail stating I would get the return packaging in the mail in 1 to 2 days. Still have not received it and e-mail also stated if the item is not sent in the 10 business days then it would be rejected.
    So what they wait until the last day to send the shipping package so you lose out on getting your item repaired or replaced?? Your also instructed not to use your own packaging.... This really stinks and if this is the case, I just won't purchase another Apple product, that is bad customer service!
    Anyone else having this issue??

    I have the same issue, Submitted on Nov 13, and no box and the 10 days is almost up. I don't suspect anything nefarious, and probabaly just resubmit it after the 10 days are up. I see no other way to contact support about the lack of a shipping box.

  • How long does it take to get my X61 checked from water spill?

    Hi,
    I had spilled some water into my X61 yesterday.
    Though I instantly shut it down and try to clean, I was too stupid to try to boot it in ten minutes.
    Not sure if it is "OK" right now....
    Does anyone have the same experience?
    Could you share how long does it take you to have your laptop shipped and checked at lenovo repair center?
    Thanks a lot!

    do you have accidental damage warranty? if you don't then you will incur a hefty bill. The check up should not take more than 5 days including shipping, provided that no parts need to changed, if there is parts that are required, then depending on the parts availability, you could wait up to a month or two.

  • HT1338 Free Mountain Lion request, how long does it take to get a response??

    Submitted my free request for software update to mountain lion yesterday, how long does it take to get a response, and where can I go to verify my request was received?/

    I called them after waiting 12 hours and they said up to 72 hours and there was no place to check things in the meantime.
    Their communication on this one is surprisingly bad, but apparently they have it under control. Time will tell. (It's now been about 36 hours for me with no code or confirmation email.)

  • "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"

    Yesterday there was a question in the USALUG.org "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"
    This question was a good question, so I decide to make the ultimate test. I have a lot of computers standing here around, and remembered that on one of them was have already Archlinux installation. I was right, when I booted, the system check said me, that the system was 253 days not checked anymore. I got so excited that I forgot to check was it one of my 0.7.2 Gimmick or 0.8 Voodoo installations.

    After reboot the system loads all new applications with out any problem. Later I replaced the intel-video driver "xf86-video-i810 1.7.4-6" with the driver xf86-video-intel 2.2.0-2. No problems at all.

    definitely. By contrast, here's a regular upgrade on my debian box -- out of the blue it's having some problem with one of the packages, and it's turning into a regular recursive nightmare.

    It's so "delicate" and temperamental compared to the no-nonsense, straightforward approach of Arch. If one little thing is off, the entire system has a hissy-fit and won't do anything until you hunt the internet high and low searching for a solution, encountering all the debian hawks along the way who are ready to rip your head off at the first suggestion that debian isn't directly from god and could have a problem. Imo, Arch is the best linx distro hands down. Nothing else even comes close.

  • So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher ...

    I have a 160GB Gen 5 that I bought when first released back in the day when they were $400. Through a number of changes, the most recent being the advent of the Convert Higher Bitrate Songs to 128bit AAC feature, I decided to look at what more music I could store. After all was said and done, I ended up with a bit of a disaster with cover art not being properly applied to the music being played. I decided to *restore the ipod* based on suggestions in the discussion boards, and equally important was following the hints and tips here.
    http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
    The advice is especially important in very large library situations to ensure you have uniqueness in the albums you want to display. Hadn't really given it much thought until I had the ability to see the individual albums for the 40K songs on the iPod via the cover art view.
    Finally the point of the post...
    *So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher Bitrate option now available in iTunes 9.1?* The specs on my computer are not highend by any stretch, but it's no slouch, and neither of the CPUs are ever pegged. At this point I've lost count of how much time it's taken, but the load is going on 3-4 days. With some breaks in between because I need to check each incremental load to verify there is no cover art corruption, correct bad tags and such, but for the most part the loading is visibly slow, and I'm sure the conversion is the cause. I'm not really complaining at this point, but there is clearly room for improvement. And of course unless there is a redo involved in which case I will get quite cranky.
    *I would like to hear the experiences of others.*
    Finally to lend a bit more credence to the performance concern, my 32GB iPhone 3GS for only about say 28GB of music takes about 24 hrs to load from a 2.2GHz dual core intel laptop, again using the convert higher bitrate option.

    With AC power adapter it takes 3-4 hours for a full charge. With the USB charger it takes 9-0 hours for a full charge. I am not happy with them removing the AC charger and other accessoreis at all. It's business but it still stinks.
    I know I would rethink my purchase but would most likely end up buying the Micro anyway
