When do the Galaxy S5 pre-orders ship?

Does anyone actually know?

After my local Verizon Store (Orlando MetroWest) totally goobered up my 4/4/14 Samsung pre-order, I had to cancel that, and chose to go to BestBey to get the item ordered again. Through BB I didn't have to jump through any hoops for that silly $50 mail-in rebate card. It was was just a simply $199.
Received the BestBuy e-mail saying, "You pre-order Verizon phone is here!!", and I picked it up this morning. Sweet!!!
I'll not make the mistake of attempting it with a Verizon Store (or through their web site) again in the future.
Great phone by the way : )

I hate the galaxy S6 pre-order

Hi, Bestbuy.I want to know when I can get my pre-order galaxy S6 edge.
My pre-order really early on March 28, but I didn't get my cellphone. Why I pre-order ? I just want to get the phone in first day and i don't need waiting in a line.
Can you help me to check the shipping or something? or it is my last time come bestbuy.

Hello adsfdg123,
Thank you for joining us on Best Buy Unboxed. I'm sorry to hear that you weren't able to pick up your new Samsung Galaxy S6 pre-order as you expected.
The release of the latest and greatest mobile phone is always highly anticipated, and while your pre-order guarantees you will receive a product, it does not guarantee an exact date.
As you may read in our FAQ, there have been reports that some of our stores did not receive some models. You should be notified by your local store when your pre-order is ready to be picked up. Until then, I apologize for the imposition on your patience.

Galaxy S6 pre-orders Shipped

Again Verizon is late to the table...
Galaxy S6 and S6 edge now shipping to AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile - GSMArena.com news

of course they are! they don't care about their customers because, quiet simply, they don't have to. They constantly have my sack in a vice. At the very least, get us the phones on the proper worldwide release date! (4/10). Why wait to SHIP the phone then? Ship the phones on the 8th or 9th so we can RECEIVE on proper date! Ship next day air or let me pay to upgrade to it! I am trying to remember what happened to me last year with the S5. I believe the official release date was 4/11/14. Does anyone remember if they RECEIVED the phone on that date? I am trying to go through my previous orders to see if there is a chance they might get their stuff together...I doubt it though. I have started to learn over the years that you have to keep your expectations of them REALLY low, so you will never be AS disappointed.

It is unclear the advantage to pre-ordering the new iPhone 5. What I have read is that it will ship on the 21st? If so the only way to get one on the 21st is go stand in line. Please correct me if I am wrong.

if you don't have time to stand in line or don't want to risk getting there too late and leaving empty handed from the apple store preordering will guarantee you one but possibly in a slightly longer timeframe

Re: Galaxy S5 Pre-orders

Still waiting for an update on mine still says in process. When will it ship? and what is the deal with the promotional gift cards?

Hello K9GEEP,
Welcome to the conversation!
With pre-ordering from Best Buy, you absolutely get priority for your order as you guaranteed the device even if we can’t provide it to you on its release date. If you are anything like me though, I’m sure you can’t wait to get your hands on your new phone and just want it as soon as humanly possible.
After looking through your account using your email address on the forum, I found that your Galaxy S5 pre-order is currently processing with an ETA of 4/15 to 4/22. However, I don’t show a tracking number quite yet. While you should get a system email when the item ships, I’ll be sure to keep a vigilant eye on your order and let you know when I see some movement. When one generates, I’ll be sure to send you a private message with a link to UPS’ tracking information. You should receive an email when this private message is sent, but you may also view it by logging into the forum and clicking on the envelope in the upper right-hand corner. I also invite you to contact me directly should you have any further concerns about this.
Your promotional gift card, however, is another story. Since you placed a pre-order for the phone, you’re eligible for a $10.00 gift card that should arrive via email. It may take 5 to 7 business days from the official launch date of the phone (4/11/2014), but should you not see it within your email inbox or junk folders within that time frame, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Thanks for posting!

Any UK pre-orders shipped or prepared for shipping?

Speaks for itself really. I was just wondering if anyone in the UK who pre-ordered on the Apple store site has seen a change in their status.
I pre-ordered the day after the announcement, then canceled in favour of Argos, the re-pre-ordered when I discovered their deception!
Be nice to get it for the weekend (ever the optimist)...

I also pre-ordered through the Apple store on the same day as you but cancelled when I found there was discount code that reduced the cost from £269 to £245.
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=354737&highlight=ENTMZGJPVJ
I had to cancel the first order, then re-order using the discount code but the shipping date stayed the same (shipped on 28th, delivery by 2nd October) no change in status though.

What's the point of pre-ordering an album?

A couple of weeks ago I pre-ordered the Glee Soundtrack Vol. 2 priced @$9.99
It just became available and I got an email advising me I can now download it. When I do, I get a pop-up saying that the final price is now $12.99 not the $9.99 that was displayed when I pre-ordered it and I will be charged the $12.99!!
How is this possible? In every other store, not only are you guaranteed the pre-order price no matter how much the "final" price ends up being, but you actually will get the item for less should the "final" price happen to drop from the time you pre-order to the time you actually receive it.
What exactly is the purpose in pre-ordering if Apple forces you to pay the new higher price anyway? This seems totally unfair and unjustifiable.
Sorry, am I ranting for nothing? Am I missing something? Is there some method I am missing that I am to use to d/l the album at the price at which I originally agreed?

It's so funny you mentioned this, I'm currently having the same problem with the same album. I actually just finished sending iTunes an email about it (supposed to get back to me within 24 hours) and then found this article. I would suggest you do the same, but if you don't I'll try to remember to post back what I hear from them. I've always had great support for the odd thing that didn't work properly (like a glitch in a TV show or something) so I'm sure they'll clear this up without a problem. I asked the same thing too though, about what price I actually get charged, so hopefully I'll also get a response to that too. But yes, according to most pre-order rules in other stores, it should be the price we pre-ordered it for. Oh and yes I've checked for available downloads from the iTunes Store menu, but it just told me everything has been downloaded already. I double-checked my library to be sure it hadn't downloaded in the background but it was definitely not there. It has not downloaded yet.

What are the perks to pre-ordering movie rentals in the itunes store?

What are the perks to pre-ordering movie rentals in the itunes store?

You can purchase music using multiple accounts within the same Windows profile & using the same iTunes library. I think when you log into the store it remembers the last account name used, but provided you don't let it remember your password then you have the opportunity to enter the correct details for each purchase.
If you're going to place these purchases on your respective iPod's the following may help.
*How to use multiple iPods with one computer*
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iPods using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

Does BB care that customers are unhappy about the iPhone 5 pre-order process? Should they?

It is obvious that there are more than a few customers who are unhappy with the iPhone 5 pre-order process. In my case I was unhappy with it. BB kept pointing the finger at Apple. It is well documented in the press that Apple has redirected supply to Apple customers then to phone companies. So, although still unhappy, I was buying BB's explanation.
Fast forward to this past Saturday. I received an email that my iPhone is ready for pick up. Due to prior commitments over the weekend I planned on picking up the phone on Monday. On Sunday I get an email stating that if I don't pick up my phone by Tuesday my preorder would be canceled. I gave it no thought. This morning (Monday) I got a reminder email. Still everything is good, because I'm going to pick it up today.
I walked into the store seconds after the door was unlocked. I hand my paperwork to the salesman in the mobile department. He asked me if I had received a phone call. I said no. He said there was no iphone for me. I showed him the emails on my phone. The net result is that I do not yet have my iphone. I am expecting someone at BB to blame the emails on Apple.
Does BB care about the fact that there are disgruntled customers? Should they? They no longer have any brick and mortar competitors. Since they have a monopoly in most markets, should they even bother to care? Caring would probably eat into their profits.

They absolutely should care. The thing about the iPhone is that it is a product that makes a large splash. People can instantly talk about it since it is statistically a good ice breaker. One of the first things I talk about when I discuss my iPhone with other's is where to buy it and I have not recommended Best Buy for the way they have handled this exact scenario. When they found out what had happend they could have at the very least offered to price match Walmart for the 16GB version.
As far as the competition is concerned. I say that I will be purchasing the more costly electronics online or Costco. I am through with Best Buy. I will stop in periodically and "play" with the item's I am interested in purchasing but no longer will I buy from them.
By blaming Apple for this and given that Apple has done this to them in the past, I can only wonder how they did not see this coming. If I were in a situation where I knew the supplier would even consider Shorting me on supply I would demand a written and legally binding statement by that supplier that I would not get stiffed for the devices. It only makes sense that if you have a contract to sell then you have a contract to secure your supply.
If this contract existed we would be hearing about a lawsuit against Apple by Best Buy but they don't have this agreement so they just look amature and naiive.
Good luck to you in getting your phone. I simply walked into an Apple Store in Cupertino CA on 09/21/12 at 5PM and walked out by 5:30PM with all my contacts and email set up.

Destiny the Taken King pre-order issue

I've brought destiny a while back and I brought the two add on packs well the season pass well they am bringing out the taken king and when I try to pre order it it says not available for purchase even though my friends Ave the only difference is u bought the season pass they brought the two add ons separately any ideas

Hi guys,
This issue has been reported to the Store team who are investigating the problem. In the mean time we have discovered a workaround that will allow you to pre-order the Taken King expansion for Destiny.
Please note in order to pre-order the Taken King stand alone expansion (without previous expansions) you must own both The Dark Below and House of Wolves expansions or the Destiny season pass.
To pre-order the Taken King DLC first search for the Dark Below expansion or click here. As you already own this content there should be a purchase button with a price of £0.00.
Select the purchase button and confirm (as long as the price is still £0.00).
Complete the same process for the House of Wolves DLC
Again make sure the price is £0.00 before confirming the purchase.
Go to the Taken King product page and you should have the option to pre-order.
Any questions or if the doesent work please let me know.
Thanks,
SFZ

The cd I pre ordered says purchased .. But it will not download

The cd I pre ordered says purchased .. But it will not download

Hello Mistaman
Check your purchase history to download previous purchases. Also you can check on your computer in your iTunes folder to see if the purchase has been downloaded. If you find it there you should be able to double click it and it should open in iTunes.

When is the iPod Touch 5's pre-order shipping date?

I pre-orded the new iPod Touch, and I got an email saying that it will ship in October. But that's not too specific... It could ship in two weeks, or on Halloween! Does anyone know the exact date on when the iPods will ship or will be officially released?

In my honest opinion it won't be halloween because they probably want the pre-orders to get there before the end of the month. Honestly i think it will be early october maybe the 1st.

I pre-ordered the most recent City and Colour album. When i ordered the album the funds were immediately withdrawn but now, when trying to download my pre-order, I am being asked to purchase the album again. How do I not pay for the album twice?

I pre0ordered the most recent City and Colour album. When i ordered the album, the funds were withdrawn immediately. When trying to download the pre-order I am being asked to pay for it again. How do i stop this?

No I haven't, the usual button that says PURCHASE still says PURCHASED. Have you found any solutions? I would greatly appreciate your help with this and I will do the same.

Will all the ipod touch 5g pre orders ship at the same time?

I pre ordered a ipod touch 5g on September 18 with an engraving, and it's still processing. I was hearing from a few people that the ipods preorders ship out the same day...Is this true?

I just got a notice this morning, that my Apple iPod 5g has shipped. The tracking information says it will arrive on Monday 10/15/12. That must be the release date.

When will iPad 3 start pre-order for the 23 March-countries ?

I want to pre-order the new iPad but I live in Belgium and I can't pre-order yet
Ipad comes out 23 March in my country so does anyone know when it will start it's pre-orders if there will be any at all ?

Apple hasn't announced anything yet... I suggest you follow the twitter feeds of one of the blogs that tracks Apple and iPads (Macrumors, 9to5mac, imore, tuaw). They race to get out updates of news like that.
