  • The Diff Between Pre-Order and Reserved

    Pre-Order:
    You walk into the store between the 24th and the 1st of July and walk out with an iPhone 4.
    Reserved:
    You stand in line after all the pre-order people have gotten their iPhones (or if they don't show up, their phone is held for 7 days) and any extra phones are given to you, in a first come, first serve of the people who reserved. You are not guaranteed to get one.
    No Pre-Order or Reserve:
    You get dibs on the phone after all the reserve people have gotten their phone.
    End of story. Please stop asking.

    Sorry, that doesn't make any sense. I mean, I get that a lot of people don't know there's even a difference between "pre-order" and "reserve", but why would "reserve" people have to wait until after all the "pre-order" people get their phones? The Apple store employees know not to give away the pre-order phones, I'm assuming they're pulling from a different "pile".
    And there have been a few people on here who have said that Apple employees assure them there is an actual phone with their name on it. Difference is, their phone isn't programmed to their account yet and the reservation expires at the end of the day (as opposed to pre-ordered phones which expire after 7 days.) Not that the Apple store employees know all, they sure didn't today, but if it's a consistent answer like this, I'm inclined to believe them. Also, then, what's the point in telling the reservation people to come at 7AM if they're not even going to start giving them out then?

  • No pre order or reserve question

    Ok sorry if this has been answered, but i did not pre order or reserve an iphone because it stated on apple.com that i have to put money down to start a line with AT&T. will i be able to go to AT&T on the 24th and start the process? or is the 24th only for people who pre ordered and reserved?

    Go to an ATT or Apple store now or when you have the money and start the process, you won't get a iPhone 4 until they have one available (They have sold out). Waiting until 24th will only delay your wait, others will pre-order ahead of you.
    Trying to do anything at an ATT store for the next couple months will mean getting in line behind all the other folks trying to get their hands on an iPhone.

  • When do pre-ordered iBooks appear on iPads?

    I pre-ordered an iBook on my iPad yesterday. The book was released today, but it is not in my library and when I search for the book in the iBooks store, it's not listed. When do pre-ordered iBooks appear on your app? And why is the book no longer listed in the iBook store. It was there just yesterday when I pre-ordred it. Help!

    I got mine too Happy reading to you all as well!

  • I pre ordered a movie on iPad but I don't know how to download it?

    I pre-ordered a movie on iTunes and when It came out I got an email with a link saying to download it but when I click on it it just goes to iTunes I don't know what to do from there help me please?.

    Hello Alyssa420,
    It sounds like you are trying to download your pre ordered album but are unable to download it. I would reach out to our iTunes store support by reporting a problem with the purchase with this article:

  • Pre order vs reserved

    If I reserve the new iPhone 4 for pick-up, is my credit card charged on the 15th when I reserve it or charged when I pick up at the store?
    I'm concerned that the "reserve" does not guarantee the holding of the phone since Apple does not have any funds in hand or means to charge a credit card if the submission of a credit card is not given. Not that I think Apple has any concerns with selling any phones for folks who don't show up....:)
    Anyone who had the "reserve in store" option for the 3Gs have any input? Everything worked out fine? I enjoy the "drop day" atmosphere at my local Apple store and would like to pick it up there.
    Also, in either scenario, whether you have have it delivered or picked up at the Apple Store, how do you choose if you want to stay with the unlimited data plan or switch to the new cheaper limited one?

    how do you choose if you want to stay with the unlimited data plan or switch to
    the new cheaper limited one?
    If these questions are not asked in the ordering dialog, you still have to set up the phone through iTunes. If you do a store pickup, they will likely take care that when you pick it up. If you already have an account with AT&T, there is also their web site. The new plan is offered to all iPhone users regardless of any upgrade.
    There has never been a plan change thrown in the mix before, so none of us here really know. But I am quite sure AT&T will not miss a chance to charge us for something

  • New iPad (3rd Generation) Pre-Order info.

    I pre-ordered a new Apple iPad (3rd generation) 64 GB Wifi+4G LTE yesterday on March 6, 2012. The conformation email I received from Apple said that it would be delivered on March 16, 2012. Is this the true date that my new iPad will be delivered, or is this just the date that it will ship from Apple? Does anyone have any insight on this delivery date question?

    I was asking the question because the new iPad 3rd generation is not available for sale until March 16, 2012. The delivery date message on the conformation screen wasn't clear as to when it would be delivered, basically stating the delivery estimate. Not that it's a huge concern, it's that I've never pre-ordered anything from Apple before, and since the product itself won't be available to purchase on the market until March 16, I was simply inquiring as to the exact delivery date being the same date the product being available for sale. I know when I ordered my iPad 2 online on the Apple store, it took about 8 business days from the shipping conformation email I received, and the delivery of the iPad 2. Has anyone else pre-ordered the new iPad 3rd generation online from the Apple store, and have an estimated delivery date of March 16, 2012?

  • Bestbuy Pre-Order?

    Ok so I just got of the phone with AT&T and said the only places you can Pre-Order a iphone 4 is from Apple or AT&T so if u plan on Pre-Ordering from Bestbuy good luck the only reason i want it from Bestbuy is because of the protection program! It ***** i wonder how long i will have to wait if i dont Pre-Order!

    with the iPad, Best Buys did receive stock to sell on launch day. I'd expect to see some announcements in the week or so before launch clarifying whether it's worth lining up at Best Buy, etc. Just watch the headlines on places like TUAW.com--they'll probably even have a "where you can get it" story sometime June 21-23.

  • Pre-orders in Aussie

    I live in Australia and I have a question about pre-ordering a 4th Generation iPad. If I pre-order a 4th Generation iPad (wifi) on Friday the 26th of October does it get shipped to arrive at my home on the 2nd of November?
    I was so close to buying a iPad 3 this week so I now have to wait (again).

    Sep 7, 2007 06:51 AM GMT
    Holland.
    Status finally changed to prepared for shipment.
    But I doubt it will be shipped this week, probably the end of next week. I'm excited though Too bad I won't get my invisible shield on time :P

  • Can you change the type of iphone that you pre-ordered before launch day??

    I pre-ordered the 16GB Black iphone for pick up at my local Apple store and think i should have ordered the 32gb instead. Was curious if anyone has called to change their phone type from 16gb to 32 or 32gb to 16gb. Thought I would check here before calling them and bugging them.

    Limited availability. Some mixes responses. My store will not allow changes of pre-orders or reservations. Others have said they will allow changes, but you'll have to head to the back of the line.

  • IPhone 4 Pre-Ordering Issues Solution

    Use the Apple Store App. It worked instantly for me, no issues at all. I received a confirmation email within 5 minutes, and within the app it confirms that I have a reservation for an iPhone 4 on June 24.

    Have been trying to buy and or reserve one since about 6am Pacific Time and my sessions have repeatedly timed out. I have attempted at least 20 times to no avail. I am doing the method described in my email from Apple last week and going directly to the site and hitting pre order and reserve and still cannot get it done.

  • IPad 2 pre-order.

    I called 3 of my local stores in MD. Columbia and others. 
    On march 12th, customer can pay 100 dollars deposit to pre-order iPad 2. -Best buy corporate website-
    Three of those stores said like... no.
    Some one at corporate office needs to call my three stores and find out. If you guys are taking pre-orders, and somehow these reps just did not tell me the right information. I would be angry. 

    The Best Buy I went to in Staten Island, NY took my pre-order (after going through three managers - luckily that just meant I was the first person on the list), but note that not all stores are taking it. They may be reserving this for high traffic areas, NY, LA, etc. Since there seemed to be ample supply at several small market stores but nowhere near enough in the big metro areas. Just my two cents though.
    I am not a representative of Best Buy.

  • Why do pre-orders in ibook store no longer show up on ipad

    I have noticed that now when a pre-order book is selected that when you go to your purchases on Ipad that it no longer shows any pre-orders as it did before.  Does anyone know how to access pre-order that you have made from you ipad?

    Are the disks self powered? Try a SMC Reset:

    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.

  • Reserved for Store Pickup, No pre-order and Ship to Store!

    I'm reading all these discussions and my head is exploding. I was up @ 4am yesterday banging away like you all.
    My criteria was this; I was eligible for upgrade @ $199 with the activation fee waived (sweet). I wanted to pick the phone up at my Apple store because I trust it more then brown.
    When I clicked the pre-order link, there was NO option to have it sent to the store, it could only be sent to my house. Let me repeat that, NO option to send anywhere but house. It even says it "Pre-order your iPhone 4 from the Apple Online Store and we’ll ship it free — directly to your door and ready to use."
    So I went to the reserve in store process. There was NO WAY TO PAY for it up front. Let me repeat that; NO WAY TO PAY for the reserved phone. So I received my confirmation email and said there is a phone waiting for me on the 24th!
    I called 2 Apple stores and chatted online with 3 Apple support people and they ALL, every single 1 of them, said the same exact thing. The only way to pickup in the store is to go through the reservation process. The store will have 2 lines, reserved and general. The reserved will be there all day for you to pick up.
    So, does anyone have some proof that you pre-ordered it, paid for it and have it sent to your Apple store, not your home to pick up?

    I got to the page state,"iPhone is reserved for pickup." Please bring government issued ID, debit or credit card...... No email received. Do I really have one on hold????
    This time for this phone things are very confusing. I preordered yesterday for in store pickup got through the verification process saw that all my data and cell plan info were correct. Then at the end I got the message "see you at the store". Bring picture id. Nothing else, no confirming email as of today, nothing showing under my account in the on line store. I just came from the store that I picked for my phone to go to and there is nothing in their system either. So I went down to the AT&T store in that mall and preordered it there, no issues. It's just as well since I'm ordering it under my wife's number to get the discount and would have to go there any way to make the switch. I've read other posts from people that saw the same thing on line that I did when they ordered, "see you at the store" but no other confirmation. I'm going to assume that it means the order did not go through. So keep that in mind if you got what I did.

  • Pre ordered album is available, but can't find it in the downloads section on ipad 2

    The new album by coldplay is released and I received an e-mail with a download link. If Infollow the link on my ipad, it says to check the downloads section, but the album isn't there...

    That is what I understand, but if you go to iTunes and download it, it will go to all your devices if you you device set up to. By the way, what is the point to pre order a digital album?
