Photo Card Delivery Time

Have to say, I am very dissapointed with the delivery times for ordering photo cards through iPhoto in the UK. I am still waiting after over 2 weeks from placing my order and now am not gonna have it in time for what it was intended for.
I know that the guidance states 10 days from date of printing but the printing seemed to take over a week (for a card?). Now if Apple wants to be a market leader in this field then they need to pull there finger out cos this will be the last time I order anything through iPhoto (I know from experience I can order prints through Wanadoo and they will be put through my letterbox the next working day).
I have left feedback with Apple to this effect but am not expecting much to change.
Moan over.

Paul,
I totally endorse this sentiment. I ordered some invitation cards for my daughter's birthday on Feb 7th. The page you visit when ordering says, "usually ships within 4-5 business days". I took this to mean that about a week from ordering to receipt would be in order. I am still without the items and when I queried this with Apple they say I have to allow ANOTHER 10 business days for shipment. That's 15 business days - or three weeks - in total. I have no idea where they ship from, and by what method, but pigeon post from the other side of the world wouldn't take that long.
In my own case I am looking at £90 worth of invitations that will arrive too late. I have told Apple that because their site failed to mention the delivery times (in fact, actually misled, although not deliberately I am prepared to believe), I will be looking to them for a full refund.
My beef is not the three weeks as such; it's the failure to mention this anywhere during the ordering stage.

  • Actual versus published photo delivery times

    Out of curiousity, what are other iPhoto users seeing as their "average" processing and delivery times for photo orders placed in the U.S. and shipped with "standard shipping"? According to Apple's page here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/help/print_products#Shipping
    It seems to indicate that orders PROCESS within 2-4 business days and then SHIPPING takes approximately 3-5 business days for delivery.
    In my most recent case, the prints shipped the next day and once it made it to my town, sat in a DHL warehouse for 3+ business days (5 days total) until it was handed over to the USPS. I'm now two days past that point and I still don't have my prints.
    The sad thing here is that I ordered those prints the day my dog passed away. I actually get her remains back from the vet faster than I've gotten these prints.
    So again, what are other people seeing? Thanks.

    Now that we have iWeb
    HomePage doesn't work the way it used to,
    It's not Homepage but iPhoto that doesn't work the way it used to. If you go back to iPhoto 5 you can do things as before I think.

  • Device on order  now  delivery time  3  weeks   and they charged my credit card

    device on order  droid incrediable
      now they are playing  games with delivery time    and they charged my credit card
    this  is not  legal  because of the fair  credit  act
    How  can they get by with this  
    I hope some people read this  BEFORE  they give the credit card number !!!
    Don
    Not its not legal as per guidelines set forth in the Fair Credit Billing Act set into motion by the FTC. While they can reserve the funds they cannot actually bill it until the the merchandise is shipped. A report to your credit card company should be able to resolve this matter.
    reference
    http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre28.shtm

    Did you read the entire article? I did and I got a completely different take on what the FTC was trying to say. My understanding of the article is that the company can charge your card as soon as a delivery date is given. The company also has the abiity to inform you of any delays in receiving the equipment. It is up to you to accept the delay (i.e. not saying anything) or cancel the order for a full refund. Why would there be a refund if the company had never charged you to begin with, there wouldn't be a refund. What the article IS saying is that you have a legal recourse should you NEVER receive the merchandise or are not notified of any delays. Review chapter 4, section 161, paragraph 3 of the actual act.

  • How do I print more than one copy of a photo at a time?

    I am trying to add a photo to a card, but I can only print one at a time.  How do I print more than one copy of a photo at a time?

    Do you want to print more than one card or more than one photo on a card?
    To print multiple photos on one page select the photos and print, select the printer, paper size, photo size (obviously the photos will have to be sized so the number you want will fit inclusing a small border) and click customize - in teh settings select multiple photos per page (the preview will reflect your selection) and click print - make any printer specific selections and click print to print

  • IPad delivery times?

    I ordered an iPad a week ago and wondering how long everyone is waiting out there. My delivery time says it should arrive April 16-22 but wonder how realistic that is. I placed my order on April 8th and am VERY, VERY anxious.
    Message was edited by: fgfats

    7-10 days delivery my ***. i'm sorry for the profanity but seriously? i ordered this on the 28th. expected this in just over a week's time. originally quoted 7th or 8th delivery.
    now they asked me to wait... claimed the credit card didnt work and the bank refused the transaction... called the bank up, this was not true...
    also a friend had been delivered ALL THE ACCESSORIES but the console itself. he called up CS and asked what was happening but they insisted it was transaction error when the he's got confirmation it went through ok and he's already holding the rest of the goods...
    later found out the ipads were not even ready to dispatch yet, when the confirmation tracking code came through on apple store, it was only dispatched to leave for hong kong on the 7th. which is already good 10days after the purchase date.
    now TNT has said if you want it ASAP you can go to the depot to collect it yourself, otherwise it would have been earliest friday delivery which is also not guaranteed. which is like what i've heard for the last 2 weeks. excuse after excuse, seriously apple, sort this out...
    trade description act and everything... why are you doing this to your supporters?
    if they werent apple haters in the first place, you might have given them a reason to now from the disappointment, hassle and waste of annual leave to receive nothing but a giant let down.
    very unprofessional.
    edit:
    for those of you still looking to get an ipad, here's the *REALISTIC delivery times.*
    *3-4weeks till delivery from the day of transaction on the apple store. 5weeks if you're unlucky.*

  • Can't get mail to display, quit or open?  Also I can't get photo card drive to work or even shut down the computer because mail won't quit.

    Help, I can't get my postage stamp icon to close.  I also can't get a photo card to load or be recognized which I think is due to the mail malfunction.  I tried to restart the computer but it is aborted because mail is still open.  It also won't display or open.  The mail heading is at the top but it doesn't have the quit option in bold.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Press   command + option + esc keys on the keyboard together at the same time.
    Wait.
    Force Quit window will open.
    Select Mail, if not already.
    Click the "Force Quit" button at the bottom of the window.
    Wait. Mail should quit.
    If this does not help, press and hold the power button for more than 7 seconds.
    Computer will shut down. You may lose the unsaved work.
    Best.

  • MRP - Auto creation of del schedule lines based on planned delivery time

    Hi,
    We have activated MRP (type PD) where Purchase requiesition is auto created by system for requirement quantity. We require to optimize delivery schedule in such a way that entire PR quantity is broken into various delivery schedule based on planned delivery time and requirement.  Scenario can be further explained with following example.
    Material Requirement for a month is say 1,25,000 units
    Closing Stock say 25,000 units
    PR Generated by system for 1,00,000 units. The entire quantity is schdulled with only one delivery schedule line as per planned delivery time. 
    The requirement is to generate multiple delivery schedule lines automatically in Purchase requisition based on planned delivery time so that Purchase orders can be placed with system generated delivery schedule lines.
    How can it be achieved ?
    Regards,
    Nirav Kinkhabwala

    Nirav,
    This subject has been discussed repeatedly in this and other forums.  I must assume that you overlooked the rules of engagement, which state that you should first search the forums and other public sites, before posting questions here.
    Standard SAP MRP cannot be made to generate multiple items in a Purchase requisition.  The functionality you seek is usually achieved when converting purchase reqs to Purchase orders, where many single purchase reqs can be adopted into a single Purchase order.
    You also might want to investigate use of Vendor Scheduling agreements.
    Best Regards,

  • HT201250 Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive?  I'm trying to restore lost photo files and I see them listed in Time Machine (without use of an external drive), but when I try to restore I get a error code 36.

    Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive?  While I was transferring photos back and forth from a thumb drive something went haywire and my IPhoto was wiped clean!  When I click on Time Machine I see all the dated pages (without an external storage drive connected), go back to a date where all my photo files are there, click "restore", and I get the message:  "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in file cant be read or written (error code - 36)"

    Thanks so much Terence.  I tried some of the fixes from that page, but then discovered the suggestion to compress the Time Machine Back up of the original library and transfer it as a zip back to my computer as detailed here:
    http://pondini.org/TM/E9.html
    That worked like a charm.  I really appreciate it. 

  • Delivery time in sale order

    Dear Sap Gurus,
    I had created a sale order with reference to a quotation.
    In the quotation-there are 2 line items with different delivery time.
    sale order date is 15/2/2008
    for eg line item 1  is 3 days
    line item 2 is 1 week
    the maximum delivery time is for line item 1 is 3 days
    so 15+3=18/2/2008.
    the system allows me to do the delivery,and pgi  even on 29/2/08.
    so the delivery time is not effective here.
    kindly suggest me what is the exact usage of this delivery time in a sales document.
    Points will be rewarded

    The Delivery date in the sales order is the Earliest date proposed by the system after automatic availability checks and delivery scheduling.
    The system uses the delivery date for each schedule line together with predefined time estimates for delivery activities (such as picking and packing) to determine the
    Material availability date
    Loading date
    Goods issue date
    Transportation planning date
    In ur case, ur order contains two item with different delivery dates of 15th and 28th.
    Suppose if u deliver the order on 15th , the delivery split takes and only one item will copied into the delivey.
    But if u deliver the order at 28th, both the items will be copied to the delivery, since both have already confirmed on the date
    Hope u understand...

  • Planned delivery time in Scheduling agreement and MRP

    Hello,
    Do you know is it possible to determine system so that MRP run will consider the planned delivery time from the scheduling agreement line instead of material master? Now the system read planned delivery time from material master when creating schedule lines automatically by MRP-run.
    Regards, jaana

    This can be customized in
    SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
    -> Production
    --> Material Requirements Planning
    ---> Planning
    > Procurement Proposals
    > Define External Procurement
    Here you can select the indicator "Scheduling according to purchasing info record or agreement" either at plant or MRP group level.

  • Planned Delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement

    Hi All,
    Does system consider the planned delivery time in case of Scheduling Agreement for Vendor like in normal Purchase order and requisition?
    I am doing the MRP run, but system is taken planned delivery time into consideration. I have one material that is Inhouse produced material for plant X and Y Plant needs this material for further making of a finished goods.
    Y plant have scheduling agreement for STO from plant X. After MRP Run required Delivery date in plant X for Material is same as plant Y. but from Plant X to Y, it take 4 days to reach. So Ideally in Plant X this delivery date should be less than 4 days as plant Y.
    Please look into the issue and reply if you have some answers.
    Thanks
    Pavan

    Hope you have maintained different Planned Delivery times in plant X and Plant Y as per your requirement. For procurement in Plant Y the system would consider the planned delievry time maintained in Plant Y. If you want in-house production time to be considered with Basis date sheduling during MRP run in PLant X then enter the in-house production time approprietely. Else if ou want to consider the exact routing times then consider Lead time scheduling in plant X.
    If the above are maintained properly then you should get the desired result.
    Regards

  • System is not considering Planned Delivery time

    Dear Gurus,
    As iam planning for the month of January and running the MRP,schedulelines are getting generated but system is not condering Planned Delivery time maintained in the material master ie. 7days.Following is the example:
    I have a FERT-X with a component A-1PC in its BOM and its planned delvery time from vendor is 7 Days.If iam running the MRP on 13/12/2010 for FERT-X  100 PCS for January1,2011 then the schedule lines are getting generated for for component A is on 01/01/2011.But PDT is maintianed in material master is 7 days and same has been maintianed in vendor inforecord.But system is not considering it.
    Kindly help to resolve the issue.
    With Regards.

    I have one ROH which has two different vendors.
    Two scheduling Agreemnt with target qty 100000 kg each.
    Two different Vendor info record with Min. order qty maintained.V1-1000Kg,V2-6000Kg.
    One source list with two vendors and with respective scheduling agreement.
    Quota arrangement is there in which SOB is maintiained 50:50.
    I hv the requirement of 3084 kg of ROH.
    I run the MRP and two diiferent schedule lines are getting generated with 50:50 qty as mentioned in Quota arrangement.
    Not considering the minimum order qty maintiained in vendor info record.
    The above process is correct
    Only One doubt In Quota Arrangement?
    IS two schedule line is created after MRP run?
    Generally System will  select a vendor Whose Quota value is less
    quota rating   = quota base quantity + quota-allocated quantity/ quota
