MBP Owners – Duration from CC Charge to "Can't Cancel" to Shipped Status?

For those of you who have your MBP's shipped as of now could you illuminate the rest of us to the duration of time you had between the 3 main status indicators apple has (Holding/Charging ones credit card, Orderee no longer able to cancel online, and Product shipped from Shanghai).
I see a few blurb here and there in the forums but nothing too informative. As for shipping times it seems all the MBP's come from China and take on average 3-4 business days to major cities.
So again ...all I am looking for is: Once my CC hold/charge was posted: X days later I couldnt cancel, X days later it shipped (insert or rearrange to match your actuals).

I couldnt cancel mine as of 3/4 and it shipped on 3/5 and i ordered it on 2/8. As of right now its in transit from indianapolis. I didnt pay for second day and its a 2ghz 120hd 2gb ram. Hope that helps answer your q. Peace out!

  • I can't check my shipping status for my iPod touch, it says "Oops, An error has occurred"

    I've ordered my iPod touch through the Apple Online Store yesterday and I can't seem to check the shipping status.
    Whenever I click into the "track a shipment" page, it just loads very slowly and then comes up with an error saying an error has occurred.
    Help, please?
    Thanks,

    [EDIT]
    Alright, now it shows up "We're sorry. Something went wrong with your request, please try again later."
    What do I need to do now?

    We have the same problem here in Australia too. I haven't been able to cancel my iPhone 4s I ordered online. I was able to purchase one from a retail store the last thing I need is two iPhone 4s :P

  • Can I cancel PLEASE?

    Hey
    Just getting increasingly frustrated at the 'customer service' whilst trying to cancel my subscription.  Essentially my computer has broken and it will be a couple of months until I get it fixed so to save money I figured I'll just cancel my yearly subscription then renew it in November when my computer is fixed and I can actually use the products.
    After a lengthy process I discover I have to speak to a customer service person directly.  Fine.  I open up a chat dialogue with someone and after a brief time it crashes or the guy goes for dinner or something and I'm left with 'chat is not available, please choose another option'.  It's supposed to be 24 hours but fine.  I call the number in contact option 2 and get 'this number has not been recognised' much to my dismay.
    Last option is to check the forums.  All I see is lot's of people with headaches trying to cancel with responses from admin being: 'we can't cancel you in forums, here's a link to the closed 24 hour chat room and a phone number that doesn't work.  If those two options don't work try the forums!  Have a lovely day'.  Or something similar and I want to cry.
    This ordeal is making me seriously consider Final Cut X...

    Hi,
    How old is your MBP? how many cycle batter do have ?
    I will also recomend to use the software http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24141/battery-health-monitor
    to monitor battery life.
    You should be able to read everything from the software.
    Please post results.

    The previous owner doesn't need to give you their credentials. They can release the device via Find My iPhone on iCloud.com as per the instructions in the link I posted in my initial response: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner
    If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
    Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
    If the person you bought it from refuses to do this, I would assume the device is stolen and I would demand a refund and/or contact the authorities.

    Settings/iTunes & App Stores. Tap the Apple ID. Tap Sign out. Then sign in with your Apple ID. However, if the phone still has Find my iPhone enabled with the previous owner's Apple ID then the phone will be useless to you until you get the previous owner to release Activation Lock on the phone.

    And the way it works is:
    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
    If you cannot get this information from the seller
    Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    you need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • Happy MBP owners - please post!

    Hi all! I've been away from Apple Discussions forum for a while, but am intrigued by the MacBook Pro. It is disconcerting to see all the issues regarding whining and heat - I know there have to be lots of happy owners out there, so would really appreciate hearing from some of you.
    Thanks.

    Hi Shazza,
    I've got a MBP that arrived in early March. And I've got the CPU whine and, since the latest firmware update, heat issues. Yet I'll still post as a happy MBP owner! The machine ROCKS...I've used XP on other laptops, mostly IBM ThinkPads, which are also nice machines, and also Linux. My other laptop is currently an IBM T43 ThinkPad with Fedora Core 5. None of them hold a candle to the Mac's stability, performance (hello, I can listen to iTunes and NOT have it stutter or hiccup when I try to do other things), and overall jam-packed-full-of-features OS and hardware.
    I'm currently writing this on my defective MBP in Safari, while checking corp. e-mail in Lotus Notes on Windows XP SP2 using Parallels Workstation beta2, listening to music on iTunes, and I have my password manager (Password Gorilla), a terminal, iCal, MSN, Yahoo! Messenger, iChat AV and Mail all running as well. Bluetooth syncs now with my Nokia 9300 Communicator, and I'm working out the modem scripts to use the EDGE capabilities as well for when I can't find WiFi. Keynote and Pages are AWESOME; forget M$ Office.
    Go ahead and make your order. You will be pleased.
    PS - Apple is sending me a brand new replacement MacBook for this one.

  • How do I know if my MBP will benefit from heatsink paste reapplication?

    Dear Mac Users
    I know the theme of hot MacBook Pro's has been done to death, but I would like to add my two pennyworth with respect to the specific question: How do I know if my MBP will benefit from reapplication of the heatsink compound? I have trawled numerous very long threads here and not found a satisfactory answer. The reapplication of the heatsink paste is a bit of a schlep and not without some risk of breaking it, so it would be good to know if the benefit is worth the risk.
    One common question is: "Are my MBP temperatures unusual?". A useful mac temperature database can be found at the following link:
    http://www.intelmactemp.com/list
    Consulting this list should set some parameter space for many users - there does seem to be considerable variability - suggesting highly variable quality of heat sink paste application by Apple. In my particular case I have an early 2011 MBP (i7, quad core, 2.2GHz). This certainly ran very hot. I even had a burn on my thigh from it, which took a while to heal. I know, they are notebooks, not laptops, but still . . . . To put very hot into perspective, the CPU was sitting at over 60C at idle, and whole case would be hot to the touch, such that resting your hands on it was uncomfortable. And yes, the computer was idling, there were no rogue processes chewing up cycles. At full load, the CPU would run at 90C and the whole thing would get very hot. I avoided running major projects or rendering jobs on it to preserve it from heat fatigue - the warranty is now up.
    My first attempt at reducing the temperatures, was to clean it. The clue was in the USB/Firewire etc ports. All were very fluffy, which suggested that there was a lot of crud in the heatsink fins. Fixing this was simple; adopt anti-static precautions; remove the back panel; blow air into the exhaust vents at the base of the screen. Numerous large fluff bunnies popped out of the fans and elsewhere. Alternatively, you can unscrew the two fans and partially lift them out (without removing the power cables to the motherboard). Major fluff on the heatsink fins can then be tweezered out, prior to blowing it through, to ensure all debris is removed. I did this subsequently on my Core 2 Duo MBP. After defluffing the idle i7 CPU temperatures dropped from 60C to 43C, but perhaps of more importance was that the whole case was much cooler and the keyboard temperature was close to ambient - much nicer to use.
    So that fixed the major heat problem. However, the question remained, would I see any further improvements by stripping the thing down and reapplying the heatsink paste? What I was looking for in this forum was a rule of thumb based on temperature measurements to help me make an informed decision on whether to strip the thing down. As my machine was out of warranty, I wasn't worried about voiding that. Also, where I am there is zero support (Africa), so Genius Bar or similar was not an option. But jiggering a 14month (very expensive) laptop was not something I wanted to do for thrills. The data in many of the posts did not provide any answers. In the end I made some measurements and decided to do the fix. The step by step instructions I followed were very clear and can be found for many Macs/models at:
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Mac
    This guide made life a lot less stressful, as pulling a connector the wrong way could trash the motherboard, and those connectors are so very tiny and fragile. It is very important to take it slow and follow each step to the letter (and not skip steps inadvertently). My before and after heatsink paste fix temperature data are shown below. The idle temps are improved, while the full load temps look like a marginal improvement. However, CPU temperature is not the only story. Certainly after the fix, the whole case is generally cooler, so the heat extraction system is working better. Also, the CPU before and after temps are quite similar at full load, but that assumes the CPU is running at the same power. I do not know enough about the i7 architecture to say if the before speed was being limited by heat, while in the after case the turbo-boost was able to run out to the maximum. Unfortunately, I didn't do any CPU performance tests. So, based on temperatures alone, it looks like a marginal improvement, but it is certainly making a difference to case temperatures.
    Note all temperatures were measured at an ambient temperature of 20C on a flat, hard surface using Marcel Bresink's Temperature Monitor. Fan speed was measured using the Fan Control software - set to allow firmware control at idle.

    Heat Sink 3 50C
    Fan Speeds 6200rpm
    Back to my original question: How do I know if my MBP will benefit from reapplication of the heatsink compound? I think temperatures alone will not give a good answer - mainly because the CPU probably has variable output - due to turbo boost. One thing I did notice is that the temperature response of the CPU when it gets switched to full load, does vary according to the quality of the heatsink paste. With the original Apple paste, when I switched the CPU to full load (from idle) the temperature of the CPU went up to its maximum almost instantaneously and stayed at that level ie the graph of temperature vs time was a step function. This suggests that the CPU may be controlling the temperature by throttling itself. Otherwise, as the heatsink warmed up, the CPU should also rise in temperature - mine stayed bang on 90C and fluctuated only by a degree either side.  After application of heat sink paste, the CPU has a much larger effective thermal mass and consequently heats up much more slowly. Turning the CPU up to maximum from idle resulted in the temperature climbing to a maximum over about 3-4s. After peaking at around 92C it dropped back as the fans kicked in, to around 86C.
    So perhaps one way of assessing the quality of your heatsink paste is to ramp the CPU to maximum from idle and look at the shape of the temperature profile. A step function suggests a lousy job and benefit may be had from reapplication. A more gently sloping profile, followed by a dip due to the fans kicking in, may suggest you are in good shape. Obviously, this presupposes that your Mac temperatures are not insanely hot to start with (i.e. high 90sC+). In which case, if defluffing doesn't do the job, then new heatsink paste is almost certainly required.

    I'm sorry but this is too funny to pass up. 

  • Charged MBP doesn't turn on & charger is not lit up either

    Hi all,
    thanks first of all to everyone who can possibly help me, it regards my shiny new December 2012 MBP 15'' retina.
    Here's the situation:
    - I unplugged my MBP
    - Then put it to sleep mode by closing it (then unplugged the mouse)
    - When I wanted to turn it on 2 hours later, it didn't turn on anymore
    - plugged it into the charger, seeing the green light fainting until it was gone
    - checked it with my other charger, which wasn't working either
    - tried out some key combinations
    - but the MBP is COMPLETELY DEAD
    Hope that anyone can give advice soon, because I need this device for work and I have work related stuff on the hard drive which makes it even more sad that a 2,5 grant expensive laptop just dies.
    THANKS A MILLION
    Joey

    Thanks DLMiller,
    I am not sure how deep you are in this Apple stuff, but would you think that can be related to the recent software update as this guy has exactly the same problem after the update.
    Moreover, do you think they can resolve it right there, because I am under some time pressure? It seems like a software related issue to me, but I can be totally wrong, but in case of a software problem, do they generally have the equipment to dig into it?
    I will be in the Bay Area next weekend, would it be worth to pop by in Cupertino?
