Ordering an iPhone: shipping to different address

In about 4 weeks I am going to be moving from Illinois to California. I am currently with Verizon but I plan on switching to ATT with the iPhone 6.
Is there any way I can place an order for a new iPhone -- setting it up as a new account with ATT with my California address (so that I can get a local area code) -- but have the phone shipped to me in Illinois?
The Apple Store seems to indicate they will not do this for security reasons. I'm guessing that waiting in line at an Apple or ATT store would be my only option (if at all).
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Apple hasn't announced anything yet
Whatever they will or not do today will be exactly the same in the future

Apple shipped my iPhone at a different address

Hi,
iPhone 6 problem
I had connectivity issue (WiFi) with my iPhone 6 and I called Apple to setup repair. They were very nice in helping me out to resolving the issue. But when it didn't work, they setup a repair and sent me an empty box in which I shipped my faulty iPhone 6 back.
Customer care and manager
Everything was super fast, but I missed the email "We got your repair request" as it was just an email which states that they received the request. But later after shipping I was going through the repair emails and I saw that the name on the "We got your repair request" was wrong. I immediately called Apple support and told them that they have my name wrong in the repair request. Apple support personal was confused and she immediately handed the phone to her manager. The manager spoke with me for quite a few minutes trying to see what went wrong in that email. I thought that it was a small issue (just the name in email), but with managers involved I was a bit worried. The confusing was, the box I received had my name and address. But the email had some other guy's name.
The biggest problem for me was that my repair iPhone may get shipped to the person on email. And I was traveling abroad in few weeks and wanted to make sure that the address issue is resolved before I leave on my vacation. I explained the issued and request Apple support manager to make sure that the product gets shipped at my address. Multiple times. And he assured me that everything looks good and I should relax.
Repair
Later the same night someone from Apple repair team sent me an email with questionnaire to fill about how to generate the issue and many other things. I explained them the issue and told them steps to follow to regenerate the same problem. Next morning I received an email that my they were able to get the same issued in their test and they will be sending me a replacement product. Following this email, maybe an hours later, I received another email stating my replacement product has been shipped.
Replacement product shipment and the mess
Once I saw that email, I was like wow! I was able to see the value in being an owner of Apple product. I was tracking the shipment as it was an expensive product and needed a signature confirmation. It was a next day Fedex shipment and the wait wasn't long. I was checking the status time to time and suddenly on the next check it showed that the product was delivered. I went back running to my mailbox and found nothing. I checked it everywhere and there was nothing. I immediately called Fedex and explained the issue. But when they assured me that the shipment was delivered with signature confirmations, I was like what!!! I said I didn't sign!!! They said can you please repeat your address? I did, and they said, this is not the address that Apple shipped the product to! We have a different address on file. I asked, what is the address? They said, we can't give you the address, only shipper (Apple) can ask details on that.
Post mess communication with Apple (current situation)
When ever it comes to Apple, I am assured that the problem with be solved. Atleast that is my experience after using Apple products (MacBook, iPhone, iPad) from last 7 years. So I was assured that the issue with be solved and I will receive my iPhone 6!. But till now, the issues is not looking good. The manager on call says that there file shows that the product was shipped to my address and I should contact Fedex. But Fedex says they won't disclosed the detail address as only shipper can do that. They were only willing to tell me if the address I am telling is the address on file or not. On repeating my address to Fedex (which was the same return shipment address I had on them email received from Apple) Fedex confirmed that Apple didn't ship to that address.
Fedex is not willing to give me the address. Apple is not willing to help me and want me to check with Fedex. The Manager looking at my case at Apple is assuring that the product was shipped at the same address that was in the email. I was frustrated and even called Apple personal as a liar. Which I think I was not professional, and will apology. But it is a $700 phone, I am a student and I don't know what to do as no one is helping me. I am totally screwed. I am thinking to further this issue by contacting some of the logistic/service/customer care executives of Apple on LinkedIn if they can help. Or anyone have any better idea?
I have attached a picture of my email with Apple. Not including the name of the managers on online forum as I believe it is not the right thing to do on public forum.

Apple is not here.
We can't help you here because we are users just as you are.
You are going to have to escalate this with Fedex. Call and ask to speak to manager.

Did anyone order the iPhone on a different line and activate it on your line?

I'm going to pick my iPhone up tonight and want to know if anyone activated their iPhone which they ordered from a different line?
How did you do it and can I do it without having to activate it through the line it was ordered from?

People have bought an iPhone under one line and activated it for another line.
Here's how to do it, everyone says Verizon's walkthrough is a good one:

HT201269 If I order new Iphone with a different # can I go to AT&T and get a sim card for another #?

I have a 4s IPhone and am switching to new Iphone 5. We are on family plan and my son's Iphone is available for discount update. I am not. I am ordering a new Iphone 5 with my son's # for me as he does not care (plus I pay the bill!). Can I go to an AT&T store and switch the sim back to my # without the new phone yet received??? Then insert correct sim to activate once new Iphone 5 arrives in mail to operate prior to delivery, or, do I need to physically take the Iphone 5 to AT&T store to be activated? Thanks for any info!

Suggest you contact AT&T to see what they are referring to as new service. Use Do
Not Disturb to prevent notifications.

Trying to ship 6 iPhoto books to 6 different addresses in one order.

I'm trying to place an order for 6 copies of my iPhoto book (90 pages) and have them shipped to 6 separate addresses. Can this be done? Im trying to avoid creating separate orders because the upload time is long for a 90 page book.
Can this be done?

No, it can't be done. All books of one order can be shipped to only one address.

Two phones ordered, only one shipped. The iPhone 6 has shipped with tracking number and charge to my card. iPhone 6 Plus has no information available, no one at CS can tell me if this is normal, if it is delayed, any info appreciated.

I placed an upgrade order for two phones, an iPhone 6 and 6plus.
I was in the Verizon shopping cart at 11:55 and checked out by 12:01 AM pacific time.
I do have my email confirmation for both phones with ship date 9/19
The iPhone 6 has shipped with tracking number and the charge to my card came through for the price of this phone.
There is no other information available - nothing on the status of the 6 Plus. Customer service doesn't know if this is normal or if my order went through, its really bad.
Any further information would be much appreciated.

I was just told by a Verizon sales rep that, when her team got in, when she checked the system at 3:03 (midnight+ 3 minutes) all 6Plus had a back order date of October, and now its going into November even though the pre-order system was showing 9/19 - that all verizon iphone 6 plus had an instant sell out.
She had no additional information on my iPhone 6 plus, not even if there was a chance for it to ship out, when the back order date would be - no further information.
(A different rep I talked to said all iphone 6 plus pre orders had a ship date of October, all of them - I asked what Verizon is going to do when they advertised iphone 6 plus for 9/19 delivery and your telling me they never had any available - at this point he transferred me... *****)

Sold to party and Ship to party are the same but has different address

Hi,
I have problem here wherein Sales order has the same sold to party and ship to party but they have different address. When the customer master data is changed the sold to party in the sales order is also updated but the ship to party is not updated.
I've checked the table VBPA and I noticed that the value of ship to party VBPA-ADRDA is 'E' (manually enetered).
Is this the reason why the address of ship to party in sales order is not updated whenever the customer master is change?
Another question, how does ship to party entered in sales order manually?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please correct me if I have understood the scenario incorrectly which I try to explain below:
Sales order is created where SP and SH both have same address initially and while creating the SO, address of the SH was changed manually by Header>partners>SH
Now master data for that customer is changed for address. As per the standard functionality of SAP, all sales order created for that customer will have new address for SP only.
If address of SH needs to be changed in SO, it has to be done manually by the same way as explained in the above mails.
As far as manually entering the SH in SO is concerned, system will automatcally selects the SH if only one record is available for SH. If you have specified more than one SH, system will give you an option to select one by displaying a pop up.
Please let me know if you find this explanation suitable.

I ordered my iphone 5s on wednesday and it still says its being processed but it was overnight shipping so when should it come

I ordered my iphone 5s on Wednesday. The order tracker says it is still being processed. The shipping was overnight shipping. When should it be here?

As your order moves through the process, you can check the status at http://bit.ly/RjmCUB. You may not be able to see a change from Processing until it officially ships, then you'll see the tracking number. If you've received a confirmation email that your order was submitted, any additional information throughout the fulfillment process will be sent to that same email address.

How do I ship to a different address?

My billing address is in Japan, and I want to send the book to the UK. In the drop down menu for shipping address, there is only Japan? How can I put a different destination in the shipping address section. Thanks

Hi Pete,
This is a copy/paste from iPhoto Help.
"Why can't I ship my print or book orders to another country?
Your print and book orders can only be sent to addresses within your shipping region:
•Customers with a U.S. or Canada billing address can have their orders shipped anywhere in the U.S. or Canada.
•Customers with a Japan billing address can have their orders shipped anywhere in Japan.
•Customers with a European billing address can have their orders shipped to any European country where iPhoto Internet services are available. To see the list of countries where Internet services are available, click "Tell me more."
If you want to send prints or books to an address outside your shipping region, first ship it to yourself and then mail it."

When I order 4 Aperture photo books can they be sent to 4 different addresses?

I am using Apple Aperture on an iMac. I plan to order soon at least 4 photo books and more later. Can 4 printed books be shipped to 4 different addresses in one order, or do I have to make 4 separate orders? If Apple has filled an order to print a photo book can I make another order without having to upload the book again, since Apple has the book from the previous order?

All parts of an order have to be delivered to the same delivery address. And for additional copies you have to place a new order and upload the book again.
See the information on the Apple Print Products page for your country:
Print Services Support - Apple Store (U.S.)

Ordering Calendars for delivery in different countries? Live in the UK and want to order a calendar for printing/delivery in Canada. However - can't change the default country -even changed the address in my Apple Account, no result. Any suggestions?

Ordering Calendars for delivery in different countries? Live in the UK and want to order a calendar for printing/delivery in Canada. However - can't change the default country -even changed the address in my Apple Account, no result. Any suggestions?

The general rule is that the shipping address must be in the same country as the billing address of the credit card used to order. However, you can try changing the Print Products store in iPhoto's Advanced preference pane to Canada and try ordering again.

If I ordered an iPhone with AT&T, will it take longer for it to ship?

Okay, so last wednesday (July 7th), I ordered a 16 GB Black iPhone 4 from the AT&T store near my house (I live in Houston, TX)-the lady at the store said it would take 7-10 days to get it, but the Apple website said shipping takes 3 weeks...what am I supposed to believe?! lol
I checked my order status on AT&T.com and it is still on backorder
Can anyone give me any info? thanks!
Also-I bought a black bumper for my iPhone on eBay-apparently the phone may not work without the bumper-can someone explain why?

Don't know about the back order thing, I'll just share with you about my order with AT&T
July 1st - Ordered my IPhone 4 around 11pm
July 3rd - Status Update: Processing (I've been checking everyday day)
July 11th - Status Update: Shipped (AT&T Premier emailed me that the phone has been staged for pick-up and may take up to 72 hours before the shipping carrier can provide detailed delivery information)
July 12th - Checked Fedex website and the phone's estimated arrival is tomorrow, July 13th around 3pm
A friend of mine ordered the same day July 1st, and AT&T Premier emailed her on the 8th and got the phone on the 10th..
Hope this helps.. I'm excited to receive mine tomorrow.

Changing ship to party address in sales order

Hi All,
We have a scenario herein in sales order, the ship to party address is copied from some other ship to party address. Put simply if the ship to party in sales order 1 is A, the address of A will be copied from ship to party B. The ship to party B is in sales order 2. The ship to party in sales order 1 will remain A only but the address is copied from B ship to address
i just need to know where this kind of development must have been done. i.e the include program, exit etc.
i am trying to see exit EXIT_SAPLV09A_001, but i could not see it in se38?
regards
sachin

Hi,
In first place why you want to have such a requirement. Why can't you have the correct address in the Ship to Party master record in the XD01 and assign correct ship to party at the sales order line item, so that correct address flows to the sales order line item.
Eg:
Sold to Party A
Ship to Party A & Ship to Party B (Both are assigned in the Partner tab of Sold to Party A)
Ship to Party A has Address A & Ship to Party B has Address B (Ship to Party B was created with Account Group SHIP TO)
On the sales order line item, change the ship to party to Ship to Party B
So that you have correct address in the relevant line item.
As per your requirement, you have to have a Z table to keep the logic between hip to Party & relevant address.
If not, check below link for all User Exits in SD>

Find a correct one for your requirement.
