Why won't Apple ship me my phone?

I pre ordered my iPhone on Jun 15th and received a confirmed order# with a delivery date of Jun 24th. You guessed it, I still don't have a phone and none has been shipped. When I call I can't talk with anyone with authority to give me a straight answer. All they do is refer me to the status page on the website which now says I should have the phone by July 8th. I don't believe that date since they already broke the first delivery date promise. Is it too much to ask to have someone say they are sorry for the foul up and will ship it out tomorrow?
What gives Steve?

I want mine bad...but I'm waiting for the white one to release at the end of July (at least that's when Apple said they should ship) grow up...if you wanted one so badly, you should have pre-RESERVED one and picked it up in store that day...

Why won't Apple ship to an APO?

I was wondering if anyone knows why Apple won't ship to a military APO address. Since Apple will ship with the US postal service I can't see why they won't. A common reason I hear is there is no tracking or insurance with an APO. This is not true since by sending registered mail offers both. For many of us soldiers fighting in Iraq or other places an APO address is all we have. It makes me sad in the modern "pro soldier" times when a company refuses to sell to us. On the Apple site it just says buy from AAFES website (the PX). Yes I can buy from the PX but it doesn't mean I wouldn't like to buy from other places as well. Apple is one of the few holdouts that refuse to sell to us and I would hope that changes soon.
A sad soldier
P.S. If I put this in the wrong board please move it.

F Shippy, AAFES might donate "some" of it's profits to MWR but for many reasons they're not my preferred place to shop. Maybe they've changed since you were in. That would be a whole new thread LOL.
Laundry Bleach, I didn't notice that Apple doesn't use USPS. Maybe they have an exclusive contract with FedEx or something. I'm in Germany now(another APO address) but will probably go back soon. I guess I got upset when the Apple online store wouldn't take my APO address. This issue has been a sensitive one for me ever since I was refused credit because of an APO address. The person told me I had to be a US citizen an no matter how hard I tried to explain that I was she wouldn't listen. After a few phone calls I had the situation resolved but it has bothered me ever since. We are paying customers too I hope Apple finds us a good market and decides to sell to us. Thanks for the contact info and I've sent them my comments about this topic. I will be surprised if they answer me back.

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Here's one of my responses from Verizon:
Dear Kevin,
Good Afternoon; I know how frustrating it is to want a new phone, and be told that you are not eligible to upgrade early. My name is Shane, and I will be assisting you today regarding your most recent email.
I am sorry to say that it is not possible for us to do the upgrade. We most certainly don’t want to lose a valued customer, but we can’t break our contract with Apple. If we did this for you, we would have to do it for everyone. If we did this for everyone we would risk losing our contract with Apple, and not be able to sell iPhones at all. I understand it is a savings to cancel your contract with us, and move to another provider we certainly don’t want you to do that, but that is an option for you.
Kevin, I am sorry that we were not able to give you the resolution you were wanting. I do appreciate you being a valued Verizon Wireless customer, and I hope you have a good day!
Sincerely,
Shane
Verizon Wireless
Coordinator IRT

Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the contract was honored and I am still an AT

Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the 2 year contract was honored and I continued to be an AT&T customer with an iPhone 4. I wanted my old 3gs unlocked so my daughter could use it overseas when she is deployed. AT&T service over there *****, the international plan was not worth it. The individual SIM cards per country are much more reliable and cheaper. Teslestial in Iraq and Afghanistan, Telecom in Croatia,Vodafphone in Germany and Italy. Why Apple will not unlock these phones for our military to utilize is incomprehensible to me. These young men and women are fighting for these Apple people to go to work every day, safe, to live lives they have become accustom to yet releasing a phone to use on another network they can't do at least for the military.... WHY APPLE?? WHY? A good excuse not some of the many lame excuses I have received on the phone many times. AT&T states it is Apple that will not allow them to unlock the phones... Please tell me why? All I want Is my daughter to have a phone I trust, to be able to call me when she is given the free time to do so and I trust the apple phone.
Apple, please reconsider your stance on this issue. I am having a hard time understanding why you will not unlock the iPhone.
A simple code could allow me to talk to my daughter while fighting for our country the Great USA. Apple should be on the front line and enabling those fighting for our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness to use unlocked phones on reliable local GSM networks.
I honestly hope that someone who has some sort of authority to begin allowing the release of unlock codes, and not forcing people to unlock their phones with some program produced by some hack just to be able to use your wonderful phone. That is is in a nutshell, People love the iPhone so much that they want the ability to use it on the most reliable GSM carrier available to them. That should be a major compliment. Even men and women on the front line want your phone. I agree, my service is not the best where I live either, love the GSM technology so stay with it, but if I had the ability to change to the other GSM network that has much better coverage in this area of the country I would change. To change now I would not have my iPhone and that I will not part with.
Apple, please reconsider opening up the lock code and allow your gem of a phone to be used by many more people in many more areas and most importantly overseas fighting for our country. I know if this is really thought about Apple would understand and come to the conclusion to release the unlock codes, and stop the people from hacking in to use the iPhone on other networks.
I would love for my daughter to be able to use my iPhone 3gs while fighting for our Free country.
A response would be appreciated.
Thank you.
An Apple customer for 10 years, phones and computers.

Defiled:
I did sign a two year contract and completed that contract. The 3gs is no longer in service. My daughter is going overseas to protect you and your family. I was attempting to find a way for her to have a reliable phone that could offer her some connection with home as she travels through the middle east. She travels in missions all over.
At&T unlocks other phones of theirs why not the iPhone? AT&T says that Apple will not give them the code, it is not the carrier. If I would have known this situation would have come up I would have bought and unlocked 3gs phone"Deggie" . My main complaint is that Apple has not good excuse as to why they will not allow their phones to be unlocked from services well, AT&T . I bought the phone full price, completed the contract terms, even went for and iPhone 4 with another2 year contract, along with owning an apple computer... I love the product. My main issue is give me a good answer as to why you won't allow a phone to be unlocked. It doesn't hurt Apple, People still have to buy the phones from them, and use their App store and iTunes.
Sorry, just upset about my daughter heading over there, boots on the ground, and just pray she will be safe. Would have liked to facetime her while she is in the airports and in specific areas allowed for that.
Please don't come down on me for asking this question. I understand all the contracts etc.... but to single out the iPhone specifically to not unlock after contract is over does not seem fair.
Thank you for your responses.

Why won't Apple activate the FM receiver feature of the Broadcom BCM4335 chip?

Why won't Apple activate the FM receiver feature of the Broadcom BCM4335 chip?
I paid for it, it uses less energy, less bandwidth, during emergencies, we would have radio access & FEMA would like it activated.
I asked an Apple tech on chat and they said there is no FM capability on the phone. I asked if my iPhone has a Broadcom chip and they ended the chat. I had to give them my phone number twice, but they never called back with me back to answer the question. According to NPR the chip is activated in other countries.

could it be because the iphone6 don't have an Broadcom BCM4335 chip?

Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages other than imessages?

Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages to phones with systems other and OS? I just purchased an ipad4 for my husband. This limitation is very frustrating. When I purchased and ipad3, I was told how to make the message go through as an SMS; however, this never worked. Had it not been for the fact that my husband has an iphone5 and getting an ipad with the same operating sytem simplifies things for him, it may have been better to get an Android tablet and switch phones!

I understand that, but it does have a message system, so it makes sense that you should be able to receive ALL messages via this system. I do have a phone and I can get them all, but if I sit down at the ipad to check messages, I only get those sent through imessage. Sorry, I'm venting and you probably can't do anything about it. Apple needs to wake up and figure out that if it doesn't change its protocol on the ipad, then people will switch to another system that does. Hoping that someone from Apple sees this.

Why won't apple give Ting the iPhone?

Why won't apple give Ting the iPhone?

Ting is a "MVNO", a virtual network provider; basically, they're a reseller of Sprint's cellular network, only with way, way, better pricing than basically anyone else. They don't do "contracts", and they don't charge separate fees for everything. So if you had five phones on an account, you'd pay $6/phone, plus a single fee for all the data. No $20-per-line "data plans". If I moved my current six phones (including friends and family) to Ting, I'd pay about 70% less per month for cell service... But I'd have to buy the phones up front. Which I'd do, but I have a couple people who want iPhones, and Apple-or-Sprint (it's not clear which) is not willing to let Ting do them.

Why won't Apple accept debit cards? I ordered 2 new iPhones at ATT on Monday using my debit card. I was just notified by ATT that Apple wont accept debit cards so my order cannot go through. I don't use credit cards so I don't carry debt!

Why won't Apple accept debit cards to buy an iPhone 5? I ordered 2 new iPhones at ATT on Monday using my debit card. I was just notified by ATT that Apple wont accept debit cards so my order cannot go through. I don't use credit cards so I don't carry debt! They (ATT) re-emphasized this is not their policy, but Apple's and that I would have the same problem if I went to Verizon. Is this really the policy and if so why? Apple has no problems accepting debit cards for my iTunes account?!

I think this is an AT&T thing not an Apple policy, I had this battle with them before when the 4s came out.So this time I went directly to the Apple stor, I had no problem pre-ordering my Iphone5 on the 14th with my debit card, already shipped will be here the 21st. I'd go straight to the Apple store and purchase them there...

Why won't Apple give an update on why SIRI has crashed?

why won't Apple let us what is going on with SIRI, it's clearly a HUGE issue for people like me who have had an iPhone since day 1 five years ago and who have waited for them to get this phone right, the very least they could do is let us know what the issue is and what they are doing to resolve it. Not to mention my new phone for some reason doesnt pick up as good as the last phone, does anybody else have this issue??

All sales are final
This has alwasy been the case.
On rare occasions, Apple will allow an exception

Why won't Apple provide a list of COMPATIBLE SET TOP DVD PLAYERS?

Why won't Apple provide its users a comprehensive list of COMPATIBLE DVD SET TOP PLAYERS? If they have, can someone direct me (us) to it? Although most set top DVD players will read Apple burned DVD discs, many set top DVD players will NOT read DVD's burned with the combination of iDVD and or DVD Studio Pro software and the built-in burners that ship with Mac computers. Obviously this is a third-party related issue, but it might be nice to provide at least the know set-top DVD players that DO WORK with DVD's burned on Apple computers using Apple software.

Although most set top DVD players will read Apple burned DVD discs, many set top DVD players will NOT read DVD's burned with the combination of iDVD and or DVD Studio Pro software and the built-in burners that ship with Mac computers
Blatantly untrue ... pure BULL. I've been burning DVDs for years with my Mac and DVD-SP. After thousands of DVDs delivered to clients, I've only had two (yes, 2) complaints of playback issues.
The two major factors to playback compatibility are the quality of the media and the bit rate used. Keep bit rates reasonable; don't use AIFF audio; use only good quality media like Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden and stay away from low quality media such as Memorex.

Why won't my iphone 6 64gb phone or my iphone 5 ever get 3g or 4g? It always only shows LTE

Why won't my iphone 6 64gb phone or my iphone 5 ever get 3g or 4g? It always shows LTE instead of 4g. I will be sitting next to someone with the same phone and service and they have 4g and I have LTE.

Yup, you want LTE all the time. As Loquat stated, LTE = 4G
when you are sitting next to someone and the phone says 4G, it is a ATT or T mobile connection. They have fake or faux 4G that is a step down from LTE. It really is 3G+ but they came up with the fake 4G. This is why Verizon put LTE to indicate it is real 4G technology, not hype.

Why won't Apple register the serial number for my ipod?

Apple won't register the serial number for my ipod purchased at a Walmart. Also noticed there is no settings icon in the upper left corner and can't connect to my own internet connection at home. Any suggestions?

Purchased new. Did not try to register thru iTunes. Just wanted to hook up via my wi-fi connection at home. Why won't Apple register my serial number without hook up to iTunes?

Why won't Apple let me set duckduckgo as my default search engine for safari?

I am using a iPad Mini and Safari only lists three options for a default search engine (google, bing, yahoo), all of which lack privacy. I would like to set my default to duckduckgo and would prefer not to modify my iPad illegally or use secondary apps (duckduckgo app). Why won't Apple just let me modify my default search engine manually? I quite enjoy Safari and don't like wasting space with other browsers on my iPad.

No browser can insure privacy.
The options Google, Bing, and Yahoo. Period.

Why won't Apple admit the problem with 6th generation nano power button?

The power (sleep) button on the 6th generation nano is obviously faulty and poorly designed. Why won't Apple step up and make it right and issue a recall to fix or solve the issue so many people are having? Apple, do you hear us? Make it right! You know it's wrong! If a power button fails after a couple of years, that's a sad design. Shame on you!

No, they don't hear you posting here. My button is working fine after 3 years.
This is primarily a user-to-user technical support site. You've wasted your time here.
Go down to Contact Us at the bottom right, get Apple's address and right them a letter.

Why won't Apple do not manufacture keyboard with combined trackpad?

So why won't Apple do not manufacture keyboard with combined trackpad?
Same size like numeric keyboard, but without numeric buttons and model with wire or wireless, i'm just curious why they haven't manufactured this kind of product yet.
I have iMac Early 2008 (Upgraded with 128 GB ssd) and Macbook air 2014, sometimes i feel odd carrying separately keyboard and mouse if i want to plug my macbook with IPS display, so it would be lot help if they were combined.

Have a look at this (I've not used it and have no idea whether it's any good):
