Why weren't there pre-orders for the 5/29 Amiibo wave?

I went to a store a long time ago and printed out my ticket for this wave and when I got to the register two minutes later, I couldn't pre-order the Amiibo I had the tickets for. The employees tried it a few different ways and I was there over half an hour the first time. They told me to come back the next day, so I took the bus early so I could order and still make it to class on time. The pre-orders still weren't up. I kept going back but nothing. It's stupid that I wasted so much time trying to pre-order with actual tickets and I still don't get them. At the very least, why weren't they available? Best Buy shouldn't get any Amiibo at all. It's the worst retailer when it comes to Amiibo.

Hello r555,
Thanks for writing in with your perspective on our amiibo sales. I am sorry for any disappointment you have had in adding to your collection.
While many of our gaming items are available for pre-order, this won't always be the case. I am sorry that we aren't able to help you reserve your desired amiibos. I hope you are still able to find the ones you are after.
Best regards,

Hello jporter313-
With Grand Theft Auto 5 potentially being the biggest game of the year, I can understand your frustration at not being able to place a pre-order online.
When we state that “We are not able to verify your information” on your order, that generally means that there is some piece of information on your order that is not matching up correctly. This can be something as simple as a spelling issue, and address that is not recognized as being deliverable or possibly that the billing information on your credit card doesn’t match what is on your BestBuy.com account.
I would recommend reviewing that information and make any adjustments necessary, including trying a different credit card if necessary. If that doesn’t work, the only other option I would be able to offer would be to pre-order your copy at your local Best Buy store.

I apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused you.

I preordered an album and a song was released but it won't download. It just has a clear button that says "pre-ordered". How do I download the song but keep my pre-order for the rest of the album?

I recently pre-ordered Ed Sheeran's "X Deluxe version" (or Multiply). He said he was releasing a song a day until the album was released. The most recent was Afire Love. The button where I should have "download" just has a clear button that says "pre-ordered". Shouldn't the song have already downloaded? How can I get the song without having to cancel my pre-order or getting charged for purchasing the song and the preorder?

How does porting work with pre-ordering for the iPhone 5?

I am currently a T-mobile customer with two lines, one for my wife and one for myself. We want to pre-order the iPhone 5 and become Verizon customers. Do I just pre-order the phones and then port our numbers over after we have received them? I guess what I am asking is, do I need to give Verizon any kind of heads up when we pre-order that we will want to port numbers, or can I just take care of all of that once the phones arrive?
I know I have to keep my T-mobile account active until the numbers are ported, so I will definitely being doing that.

That's a great question jimlittle! First, let me express our excitement to have you join the VZW family! I'm sure you're going to love your new phone and service.
The best way to pre-order your iPhone 5, is with the request to port-in your numbers from your current carrier. Here is the link to start your pre-order: http://bit.ly/RRkIKx After every option, select "Next" (top of screen). After you select your device(s), plan(s), and accessories, you will be asked if you want a new number, or if you want to transfer current numbers. If you transfer number, you will be asked for the number you want to transfer, current account number, PIN or password, owner's name, number to be reached, and full address. (Therefore, you will need all that when ordering.) The numbers will be ported over once you receive the phones, and they are activated. Until then, they will not be disconnected from your current carrier.
I trust this information is helpful.
Thank you,

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.

When will the next wave of pre-orders for the iPhone 5 be shipped

Dear Apple,
I sadly had to pre-order my new iPhone 5 through AT&T last Friday morning and was told I would get the phone today and then told it would be Oct 5th. I went into a store to see what I can do and although they have plenty in stock they told me nothing and then informed me it would be late October before it shipped. I know that this has nothing to do with you but since you have wonderful customer service and knowledgable peole can you please give me an accurate date on when the next wave of pre-orders will be shipped. Thank you so much. You guys are the best.

You're not addressing Apple here, we're all users like yourself.
If you want to know when the next shipment will be, call your local store or whomever you ordered it from and ask them.

Is SONY going to take pre-orders for the launch day of the PS4?

Hello, I have recently checked all my local retailers to find that they were out of PS4 launch day pre-orders, and I did some research and heard SONY hasn't yet started taking pre-orders... Is this true?
Thank you

You can subscribe to notifications about the PS4 pre-order here at our Sony Store website.

Why isn't there an override for the following?

Websites prohibit password saving
Some websites do not allow for passwords to be saved for security reasons. If you have followed the steps above, but are still not prompted to save a password when logging into a certain website, that site may have disabled password saving.

I'm not sure what you mean with "Save login info" in the right-click context menu.
Such a choice can only be added by an extension.
Websites can change the code at any time, so if you got a chance to save the password earlier then what doesn't mean that it will wok now.
The bookmarklet should give information about the presence of autocomplete.<br />
There can be other reasons for not getting that offer like an exception or other problems with the password manager.

Why isn't there an update for the Google tool bar? I trusted you and dwnloaded current update.

I just trusted your update and now I am prevented from installing my Google toolbar. What's up with that?

It is absolutely nuts that I updated to 5.0 and now I'm missing my Google Toolbar and most importantly SPELLCHECK! I never would have updated had I know of this problem. Talk about an essential tool. Come on Firefox! I'll be using another browser until you can get this problem fixed!

Why can't I buy a movie that I pre-ordered, with the iTunes card already redeemed?

See, I bought an iTunes card the other day and redeemed it that same day. After doing so, I pre-ordered a movie that was expected to be released on the 18th of March(today). So I tried to purchase the movie I pre-ordered with the credit I redeemed from the iTunes card, but it is asking for my billing information. So I clicked on the link where it says "To redeem code, click here", and it asked me to enter a code. My concern is why can't I buy that movie I pre-ordered with I the money I have in my iTunes account?

You didn't purchase the movie, you pre-ordered it. So the code works to put in the pre-order for the movie. So it's on hold, so to speak. Then when the movie comes out (and only then) are you actually billed, so you have to enter the code again in case you or someone else who has access to your computer used some -- perhaps too much of the credit in the meantime.
If I use a regular credit card and pre-order something, oftentimes there is some kind of perk or extra included along with it for me in return for pre-ordering. Like an extra feature for example. I don't actually get billed until I actually get the movie and so it's kinda like that.
Did you lose the code?
If you did, I'm sorry, but you could call Apple & hopefully they will make things right.

Pre-orders for Vol II of two-volume series

I'm working on Volume II of a two-book series. When I post Vol. I on iTunes (this month, March, 2013), is there a mechanism to accept pre-orders for the second volume? If so, what time frame lag between volumes is deemed suitable. (I'm expecting Vol. II to follow Vol. I by six months.) Also, what 'proof' does Apple need that Vol. II is legitimate. Thanks.

Hello RickDanto,
Thank you for posting on the forums and your interest in pre-ordering games with us!
You should be able to pre-order Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain – Day One Edition on our website. Also, it does appear that you currently can order Story of Seasons for shipping and not in-store pickup. You may want to reach out to your local store for more information about its availability.
Please continue to check the links for updates and for more information.

Can I upgrade from the standard destiny pre-order to the ghost edition?

Hey is there anyway I can upgrade my regular Destiny pre-order to the Ghost Edition or will I have to canel my previous preorder to buy the Ghost Edition?

Hello Treveyon,
Thanks for pre-ordering Destiny at Best Buy! With the recent announcement of the Ghost and Limited Editions of Destiny, it’s no surprise that you’d be inquiring about switching your pre-order. I’ve only recently started really digging into the details of Destiny and I can already tell that this game will likely live up to the hype, and then some!
Kandlestick makes a few pretty good points. First, you would need to cancel your existing pre-order for the standard edition of Destiny and create a new pre-order for the Ghost Edition. However, as Kandlestick also mentioned, you may want to check the availability of the Ghost edition prior to cancelling your current pre-order. To my knowledge, the Ghost version is likely no longer available due to it being very limited in quantity. Click here to see the different versions and their availability.
If you wish to cancel your current pre-order, the method of doing so is determined by how you originally pre-ordered the game. If you pre-ordered on BestBuy.com, log in to your account and pull up the order. You should be able to cancel the pre-order from within the current order details. If you pre-ordered in-store, simply return to the store with your receipt and visit the Customer Service desk.
Please let us know if you have any further questions!
Cheers,

Pre order of the apple watch

How long dose it take for apple to take money out for the pre-order for the apple sports Watch?

In the past purchases with Apple, my card has been hit for $1.00 within a week of making the pre-order. This is to insure that the card you provided is valid and has a credit line remaining to support the charge initiated for the Apple watch.....

Can't purchase a song from an Album that I cancelled the pre-order for?

Ok, so here's the deal, I bought a £15 voucher and made some purchases, the first of which was the pre-order of an Album that was released today (Sunday 24th). I didn't know however, that the cost of the purchase was deducted from your balance once you actually downloaded the album, and I've spent my credit to the point where I'm pennies of being able to pay for the pre-order of the Album. I decided however, to hit cancel pre-order and simply just download the songs that I could afford, then download the wrest at a later date. However, the album that I've cancelled my pre-order for, still displays as 'Purchased'? I was able to download one song for pre-ordering the album, but that was a deduction of 99p, the price of a single song. I'm curious why I cant't purchase the wrest of the album individually, am I tied to the pre-order because I downloaded a song that was advertised as 'Early Access', or do I now have to pay the full cost of the Album because I've surpassed the deadline to cancel the pre-order (if there is such a thing).
Some one please help me
P.S. I've only been using iTunes for less than a week, so I'm pretty much a noob.

Delete the problem track from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track file to the Trash. Then download the track again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the track persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
Regards.

Why weren't there pre-orders for the 5/29 Amiibo wave?
