Shipping to Ohio from... China?

I checked the fed ex tracking on my iPod touch order and it's showing that it was flown from China to Alaska. Is that right? Seems odd to me that they would package an invidual iPod for international shipment...

I ordered an Apple USB Power Adapter from the on-line store and they too shipped it as a single item all the way from China - to HK - to Anchorage, AL - to Newark, NJ - to Ontario, Canada where I live - all for $6. I couldn't believe it either since they would sell the item for the same price in an Apple store.

I have purchased CS6 from an on line source. The item was shipped from China. Is it legit?

I have purchased CS6 from an on line source. The item hase been shipped from China. Can this be legitimate Adobe sofware?

The few times I have purchased Adobe software in package form, it was always shipped from inside the US.
Now Adobe sells their software online and I would only trust Amazon outside of that.
I don't know what you are getting,but not sure I'd want it on my computer.

Shipping from China?

Purchased my 16 MB IPOD touch yesterday off the Apple web site. Got a fed ex tracking number and it's being shipped in from China. I know they are built in China, but I just find it odd that they have no domestic supply facility in the US to ship it from, instead of shipping it all the way from China to my house.

I've been tracking my ipod and it's set to arrive today. However when I checked on the power adaptor which is being sent via DHL, the tracking is quite amusing. Apparently it left China, was on it's way to Los Angeles, sent back to China, and now back in transit to LA.

Why does the iPhone ship from China?

I've been reading many people's posts about their iPhone shipping from China. Mine is shipping from Kentucky. Apple is an American company, so how does that work?

Apple uses subcontracted factories (such as Foxconn) in China to manufacture the products. I don't think it pays "China" anything per se.

Macbook shipping from China? When will it get here?

Hey guys I just ordered a macbook 2.0 ghz 1 GB ram 100 GB processor on Sunday and it said that it shiped today (24th) from SUZHOU China... I was wondering if anyone knows when it will get here and I live in California...

Mine took a little less than a week - 6 full days, 4 business days. I ordered it CTO - configured to order which means they had to swap out the 512MB or RAM and replace it with 2G-Ram then replace the 60G internal hard drive with a 120G hard drive, package up the addons: a dialup modem USB modem cable and DVI to VGA, DVI to DVI cables. I ordered it at 7:39am on May 16th and the promised delivery date was June 2nd. It's not even June yet! I did not order quick or overnight shipping - just regular Apple free FedEx shipping from China. Apple was fast!

Tracking Shipments from China and Honk Kong

Hi all, There are several websites posted on older discussions related to how to track orders from China or Hong Kong. I have compiled a list for everyone's convenience and some instructions. Some websites are specific in checking only tracking numbers that have both letters and numbers (eg. beginning with R, C, L, E, etc., another letter, 9 digits, & ending with 2 letters like CN or HK) and other websites assist in tracking items that only have numerical tracking numbers (along with those that have letters & numbers). Before I start, a few things to mention in case someone is unaware. In the Purchase History of the item bought, on the right side you will see a big blue box that states "Leave Feedback" (it might say return item OR View Order Details as well; it depends and I'm not sure why it is different for different items).Underneath it states "View Order Details" (it might also say leave feedback, return item, or contact seller; again it depends).Underneath that is "More Action" with a scroll down arrow and after clicking, other options appear. If "View Order Details" is not found in the above two places mentioned, this is where you will find it.Order Details will mention what you bought, item number, cost, quantity, shipping services, and a picture. On the top right, expand / click on "+ Show Shipping Details". Below is an example of what you might see.Note: Shipping info received is usually checked for most orders. The exact location is where the tracking number comes into play and the various websites I provided in this post.Delivery package 1 of 1Estimated delivery Varied - Hide shipping details √ Shipping Info ReceivedIn TransitDeliveredLast Scanned Date: NAShipping status: Shipping info received Package location:Shipping Carrier: China Post, EMS, FedEX, etc.Tracking #: 12345678900Delivery Message: NA I believe the above feature to check shipping info is no longer available after 60 days.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) https://www.17track.net/en/ This site is used for tracking numbers with:a) alphanumerical tracking numbers ANDb) only numberical tracking numbers.On the top in the middle you will see a big blue box that says "Click here to track worldwide postal carrier shipment" --> click on this.A pop-up window opens that states, "Enter up to 40 numbers, one per line". Above this statement you will see Type / Origin / Destination set as Auto for all three.Click any of the three to change the parameters.For Origin: Write China or Hong Kong as applicable.For Destination: Your country where it is being shipped.For Type: There are three options - Registered, EMS, and Parcel. Choose Parcel unless you know it was sent by EMS or if your seller stated item was sent by registered mail or you paid for registered mail. If in doubt choose Parcel first and if that doesn't work try the other two options.I have used various kinds of tracking numbers and "Parcel" is applicable for all of them even if it is registered mail. This way you only have to input the same parameter for all tracking numbers instead of doing each one individually. Remember: Look at "View Order Details" to determine tracking number and service used.Once parameters are changed as needed click "Track" - RED BOX bottom right corner with a magnifying glass.What I find useful about this site is after clicking "track" it will give you a quick snapshot of its progress, when it left China (or other origin country - this site is used to track parcels from any country that provides tracking services), and near the end it provides two links: a link to the website for the origin postal service (the link from China's end doesn't work )AND destination country postal service to track the parcel at your local postal service to see more details of where it is in your residential country.What is even better is you can enter up to 40 tracking #s and a table appears that will summarize all your shipping status and you can expand each for more details. If say all your products are from China except a few, then still input Origin as China to apply for all and then individually change locations (this way is faster than inputing Origin & destination for each item individually... takes long). Choose "Parcel" irrespective of if mail was registered or regular.2) http://track-chinapost.com/ It works for many different courier services: China Post, EMS, ebay ePacket, HongKong Post, SwissPosrt, TNT, DHL, UPS, FedEx.Details are all on website on how the tracking numbers would look like for each of the above service.Works for: alphanumerical tracking numbers.Note: If your tracking number is only 11 digits all numerical, it doesn't work on this site. I have tried several ones I have and none have worked, but they worked on sites 1) and 4).3) http://www.chinapostaltracking.com/This is another site that works for tracking #s beginning with R, C, E, or L, and ends with two letters such as CN or HK.I tried it and worked for me with information on whether item was received at post office, shipped, dates, and location.4) http://www.shpostwish.com/On the top right corner choose English so you can now read it. Otherwise it is in Chinese.This is used for tracking numbers that are only numerical & those that meet conditions below.I find this site has been malfunctioning recently. After entering your tracking # and hitting "Search" no results show. There is this forever moving circle to indicate it is processing but nothing happens.This is what the website states in terms of entering tracking #:Please enter a Wish Post exclusive waybill number:Registered mail please start with RQ99, a total of 13 bit WISH mail order.Non registered mail please start with 019, a total of 11 bit WISH mail order.This system can inquire up to 20 WISH Package tracking number at the same time, please put one tracking number per line.I got this site from the Ebay email that states that the seller has marked item as shipped, but this site hasn't been working so site #1 can be used for numerical tracking numbers.5) https://www.trackingexpress.com/I'm just mentioning this site in case it works for someone.It tracks EMS and China Post Methods of Shipping Only.EMS (China Post EMS) - Starts with E, another letter, 9 digits, and ends with CN (eg. EA123456789CN). China Post (China Post Registered Mail) - Starts with R, another letter, 9 digits, and ends with CN (eg. RR123456789CN).I find that the China Post Tracking section isn't working for me - the verification code does NOT show so I can't finish the process of tracking.It can't track numerical tracking numbers.Someone let me know if this website has worked for you in tracking your parcels that do have a tracking number with an "E" or "R" and ending in "CN" or maybe even "HK".6) http://www.ems.com.cn/english.htmlI find this website probably works for tracking numbers starting with E as it is dedicated for EMS shipping method.I have tried using #s starting with "R", but nothing is found. Just an empty table.Numerical tracking numbers don't work either.Anyone with a difference experience, don't hesitate to share. I have checked other sites using my numerical and alphanumerical tracking numbers. Some don't respond, are frozen, or just plan don't work - gives me an error message or info not found. The above I feel are good sites, but I think the first 3 are the best. Anyone with more websites and/or different experiences using the sites mentioned above, please do share. I personally checked all websites above to see how well they work and any issues I was having if any. Another thing to note is that all my packages have come from China, so for Hong Kong tracking I think the same sites can be used that follow the formula of starting with the letter R, another letter, 9 digits, and ending with two letters (HK in the case of Hong Kong), so that would be the first 3 sites for sure. Other sites are malfunctioning for me so I can't say and in any case the first 3 sites should serve sufficient that you won't have to go to any other sites to track. Sorry for the long essay, but I hope people find it beneficial. Have a great day and thanks for reading.

TL/DR If your item has not arrived from Asia by 30 days after cleared payment, go to the Resolution Centre and open an Item Not Received Claim. If the seller cannot prove delivery, you will be refunded.

New MBP on the way...... from China?

I got a notification that my MBP was shipping yesterday and today checked to see its status, excited that it was on the way. However, the Fedex Tracking information is showing it coming from China... Is this normal? I've never ordered anything and had it direct shipped from another country......
Thanks,
glenn

Yeah but China's quality assurance is sh*t
poor, if left to the local folks. Then again,
Apple's ain't too hot either!
Apple, and just about every other major computer design company/manufacture, including Sony, Toshiba, HP, etc have been making their machines in Asia for at least four years now, this isn't anything new. The last Apple to ship out of California plants was back in 2002 or early 2003 at the latest.
To be honest, there will be lemons no matter where you make them. If you want a machine made in North American, be prepared to fork over another $1000 per unit, so a MBP goes from being a $1800-3500 machine to being a $3000 to $4500 machine.

Can I exchange a macbook ordered online from China for a macbook in the U.S?

Hi so my brother lives in Shanghai and he ordered online for me the new macbook so it can be shipped to where I live in the U.S. I was thinking that after I receive the computer I could exchange it for the macbook pro in a U.S. apple store because I don't like how the new macbook is so thin and doesn't have any usb ports. Is it alright if I exchange a macbook ordered online in China for a macbook pro in a U.S. store? Because the macbook my brother ordered was $1299 but then he bought it through the education store so it turned out to be $1249. And since the macbook pro w/ retina display is also $1299, can I exchange the macbook for the pro? Or are macbooks ordered online from China different from American macbooks that I can't exchange it in a U.S. store? Thanks for reading/ or answering!

Because that is their policy, if it is less than 14 days old you can return it for a refund, but that will have to be done in Shanghai.

Copy down Ship-to Partner from main item to sub-items on Sales Order

This is my first post on the forums here. I'd appreciate any help you can give on my issue below.
I have a requirement to copy down the ship-to partner from the main item to sub-items during sales order create or change. Currently I have code in include MV45AFZB within user exit USEREXIT_FILL_VBAP_FROM_HVBAP as follows:
<i>* Need to be able to copy the ship-to of a BoM parent down to the
respective BoM children if the parent has a different ship-to
from the header.
data: wa_xvbpa like vbpa.
Clear: wa_xvbpa.
read table xvbpa into wa_xvbpa with key posnr = hvbap-posnr
                                        parvw = 'WE'.
A BoM parent line has a different ship-to from the header.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      read table xvbap with key uepos = hvbap-posnr.
See if current line is the child of that BoM parent
        If xvbap-uepos = hvbap-posnr.
          move wa_xvbpa-kunnr to xvbpa-kunnr.
          move xvbap-vbeln to wa_xvbpa-vbeln.
          move xvbap-posnr to wa_xvbpa-posnr.
          move 'WE' to wa_xvbpa-parvw.
          modify vbpa from wa_xvbpa.
        endif.
      Endif.</i>
This isn't working for me. At one point, I was able to copy the ship-to down to the first sub-item but not any subsequent ones. I'm sure I need to add some code to another sales order user exit to get this to work, but I'm at a loss at this point.   Has anyone had to do this or something similar before?
Thanks very much in advance for your help.
Angela

Hi,
Can you check few more things and tell me?
- In this exit, does XVBPA and XVBAP contains all the line items. ( main and sub items ).
- In Sales order creation time, do these table have VBELN populated when this exit triggers.
- If you modify XVBPA or XVBAP in this exit, do they get overwritten after that.
Try this code. See if it works. Let me know if you still have a problem.
DATA: wa_hvbpa LIKE vbpa,
      wa_xvbpa like vbpa.
CLEAR: wa_hvbpa, wa_xvbpa.
* check if HVBAP and VBAP line items are not same
IF vbap-posnr <> hvbap-posnr.
* read the ****-to partner from main-item
READ TABLE xvbpa INTO wa_hvbpa WITH KEY posnr = hvbap-posnr
                                          parvw = 'WE'.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
*   read the line item data for sub-item based on main item
    READ TABLE xvbap WITH KEY posnr = vbap-posnr
                              uepos = hvbap-posnr.
* See if current line is the child of that BoM parent
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
      MOVE wa_xvbpa-kunnr TO xvbpa-kunnr.
      MOVE xvbap-vbeln TO wa_xvbpa-vbeln.
      MOVE xvbap-posnr TO wa_xvbpa-posnr.
      MOVE 'WE' TO wa_xvbpa-parvw.
      MODIFY vbpa FROM wa_xvbpa.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Somone from China accessed my account and drained the money, how can i get my money back?

That article only applies to previously purchased music, apps and books.
Currently iTunes does not allow for re-downloading movies. This may happen in the future with iCloud, but that remains to be seen.
Your best bet is going to be to contact iTunes via email here:

IPhone 4 is Weird, is it because it's from China???

Hi,
I have an factory unlocked iPhone 4, which I received as a gift from my father who bought it to me from China. Currently I use it in the UK, but I cannot set the default search engine to google.co.uk. Instead it searches using google.cn which doesn't even appear to exist.
Furthermore, once I reset my iPhone, I see iTunes app in my iPhone but as soon as I connect my phone to iTunes in my computer, the iTunes app dissappears.
I'm not Chinese and I have never even been to China. Is there anyway I can correct these problems? I'd like to use my iPhone as anyone else in UK would. Thought iOS 5.1 update would fix things but it only added the Voice Memos app which was even missing before. I've not jail broken or anything, but is that the only way to go?
Thanks in advanced.
Cheers!

Yep. The Chinese government requires Apple (and other vendors of smartphones) to put hardware restrictions on the web sites the iPhone can access as well as other limitations. There's no way around these limitations. So you may wish to sell the iPhone to someone in China and buy one there in the UK, or at least in a country that doesn't have such draconian laws on Internet access.
I don't know about the iTunes app and if that's included in the block; check the Restrictions in the General preferences and see if it's turned off there.
Regards.

I have an iPhone 4S from China. How can I find out if it is unlocked, or unlockable, for service in the USA?

How to fetch the VAT registration number of the ship to party from billing

Dear SDN Team
How to fetch the VAT registration number of the ship to party from the billing document. Can you proide some information for fetching the VAT registration number of the ship to party.
Normally only the payer VAT registration number will be displayed in the Invoice. But in my case the Ship to party VAT number is displayed.
I have resolved this problem by doing the customizing setting in order to have the payer vat registration number. But for the Old Billing documents it is more than 30,000 documents where it was printed with the ship to party VAT number. So i need to identify those documents.
Can you please help to resolve this problem.
With Regards,
Jai

Hi,
To get VAT from the ship to from Billing, You have to first fetch the BILLING NUMBER from the VBRK and then goto the Document flow in VBFA to get the SALES DOCUMENT NUMBER and with sales document you will get the SHIP TO number from the VBPA with the PARVW = SH
Once you got the SHIP TO , then goto the KNA1 and get the VAT ID in the field STCEG
so the logic will be as follows
VBRK---VBELN and then
VBFA--VBELN with the document Category as C
VBPA-VBELN and get the KUNNR with PARVW =SH
Now with KUNNR ( ship to ) get the VAT ID from KNA1-STCEG

santosh
