Prepared for shipment Jul 2, still hasn't shipped...

My phone went from "not yet shipped" to "prepared for shipment" Friday evening about 9 PM PDT. Does anyone have any idea when it will finally ship? Or does anyone know what time of day (PDT) orders are generally shipped?
Thanks,
J

Same here. If yours says "Shipped by July 14", expect it to ship sooner -- how much sooner is a wild guess. My "wild guess" is by Fri July 9
I doubt the July 4 holiday has much impact on ship dates from China!

  • IPOD TOUCH 5G CHANGED TO "PREPARING FOR SHIPMENT YESTERDAY" WHEN WILL IT BE SHIPPED? ANYONE?

    I ordered my ipod touch white/silver engraved on oct 10. It change to preparing for shipment yesterday 10/18 and today its been 24 hrs. and still no change to shipped. it says estimated delivery 24-26 of october? anyone have same issue or an answer! THANKS !

    To give you an idea of the timeframe to receive an iPod Touch:
    I preordered an iPod Touch (5th generation) red 32gb with engraving on Tuesday, Oct. 9, 2012. Status changed to preparing for shipment on Thursday, Oct. 18, and shipped by Fed Ex on Saturday, Oct. 20. My iPod Touch travelled: KUNSHAN CN- SHANGHAI CN- ANCHORAGE, AK- MEMPHIS, TN- OAKLAND, CA-PACHECO, CA- CONCORD, CA-Delivered on Thursday, Oct. 25, 2012.
    Does this help?

  • Order changes to "Prepared for shipment" then back to "Not yet shipped"

    Any idea why? I called Apple Customer Service but they could not give me any reason...one guy I spoke to said he doesnt see ANY activity saying that it ever changed. Am I missing something?

    Had the same thing happen. It was because I ordered two phones through Apple.com and somehow they both got processed under the same phone number. I believe it was an issue an their end because it should have been allowed to happen in the first place. The reason it probably changed back is because Apple reconfirms again just prior to shipment that the number is still available for upgrade. If the line has a payment past due, has already been upgraded, etc - it will hold shipment. they will eventually send you an email within the next couple days telling you to call AT&T.
    Unfortunately when I tried to get them to change it to another number on the same account (had an AT&T supervisor and Apple supervisor on the phone at the same time to try and do this) Apple would not change it and said all they could do was cancel the order and start a new one with a ship date of 3 weeks out!
    I canceled and decided I'll wait till iPhone 4(B).

  • Pre-Order but still "Prepared for Shipment"?

    I noticed a lot of people getting their shipments early.
    I ordered mine around 7pm on 6/15. I barely made the cutoff for the 6/24 shipment. My order still says, "Prepared for Shipment" with delivery on 6/24.
    Anyone else in the same boat? I hope they ship it soon...doesn't it come from like China? If they don't ship it soon, what are the chances it will actually come on the 24th?

    I ordered mine at 7:30 in Utah and received an email this morning saying I would get mine tomorrow. According to the Fedex site, it is in the sort center in my state. I am so excited. Have faith and hope that everything will work out fine. As the song goes, "Every little thing's gonna be alright.".

  • Still stuck on "Prepared for Shipment"

    My order status switched over from "Not yet shipped" to "Prepared for Shipment" a few days ago but still has not shipped (although it still says "Ships by Feb. 29". Waiting on a 500GB TC in NY. Anyone else still stuck on "Prepared for shipment" that preordered, or is everyone seeing that their TCs have shipped already? Thanks!

    Michael,
    My TC is in Tennessee and still scheduled for delivery on March 5th...
    Left Shanghai, then to Alaska, then to Tennessee.....
    I think there were many pre-orders and the later ones are going to take some time.
    I ordered mine on January 18 so for the people that ordered in February, it looks like it is going to take awhile before it is shipped instead of prepared for shipment...
    Glad you like my signature...

  • How long is the preparing for shipment (for iphone 4s)???

    already one day, the status still in "preparing for shipment"...how long is the period between "preparing for shipment" untill "shipped"???....

    As long as it takes.
    Frankly, this would be a question for Apple, not other users in this user to user support forum.

  • How long does it stay in Prepared for Shipment????

    My iPod changed to *Prepared for Shipment* about this morning, but usually, when orders from Apple change to Prepared for Shipment, the package data is received at FedEx in the late evening hours: 7PM-9PM Central. Is that when my iPod touch will change to Shipped ?

    Mine changed to "Prepared for Shipment" yesterday morning by about 10am GMT, 29 hours later and it is still "Prepared for Shipment". The guy I spoke to on the phone said "that means it will ship in the next 24 hours", guess that was wrong then

  • IPhone 4S preparing for shipment...

    I pre-ordered my 32GB white iPhone 4S at about 6am NY time on friday october 7. Since sunday night i checked the status of it and it said preparing for shipment.

I just checked again the status of it and it still saying preparing for shipment and that it delivers october 14th. Should I call apple about this? Is anyoe else experiencing this issue too?

    Used mail innovations on UPS. Phone# and 10 digit zip code
    One package found with no tracking info. Found this on UPS FAQ
    Q. Why is my tracking information unavailable?
    A. UPS Mail Innovations requires 24 to 48 hours after the piece has been shipped before tracking is available. If it has been more than 48 hours and tracking information is still unavailable, please Contact Us.

  • Preparing for shipment?

    I ordered 2 6 pluses which were estimated for delivery Nov 28 - Dec 5.
    November 28 is ~2 weeks away but I was changed from processing >>> Preparing for Shipment today. Does that mean it may come a bit earlier? Or does this simply mean it will take 2 weeks to get to me still?
    Thanks

    Just curious since I saw some discussions about statuses changing from processing >> Preparing a few days before their estimated delivery (iPhone 6 pluses Oct/Sep). Just thought perhaps my shipment was destined for me in a few more days.

  • 27" Status "Preparing for Shipment" - How Long?

    Earlier this morning, my 27" iMac order went into "Preparing for Shipment". Checking status into this evening, it has not changed.  How long does it usually take to change status to "Shipped"?
    Here are the particulars of the order:
    27-inch iMac
    Configuration
    NVIDIAGeForceGTX780M 4GB GDDR5
    3.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7
    8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM-2X4GB
    1TB Fusion Drive
    MAGIC TRACKPAD
    Apple WL Kybd (English)+UG
    COUNTRY KIT
    Long time Mac owner (1984 - Orginal 128K Mac & Imagewriter).  Still just as excited to get my new iMac as I was back in '84.

    It was about a total of 12 hours.  Waiting for your bright shiney iMac to arrive can be painful.  However, once recieved, like labor pain (I'm told), the pain is quickly forgotten and joy fills in it's place.
    I am a very happy owner and user of my new iMac.

    Sounds like you need a new battery.  Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • How long does it take a tablet in "Preparing for Shipment" usually?

    Hello everyone.
    I've ordered an iPad yesterday at around 7 p.m. and I really need it to be delivered in Cincinatti until December 15, which is the date given for the delivery ("Delivers: Dec 15 by 2 Business Days"). As I'm leaving the country in Dec 16, I'm a bit concerned because in my order page it remains "preparing for shipment". Is this a regular situation?
    Thanks in advance.

    From my experience when the order status changes to "preparing for shipment" it ships the next day, and typically shows up a day or two after via FedEx. As soon as it ships they should send you a tracking number. Keep in mind, its holiday season, so quantities may be getting constrained a bit and take longer to ship out.
