Will Best Buy (125) Have any iPhone 4s in stock Monday or Tuesday?

I need to know so I know whether I'll be waiting outside of At&T that morning or driving to Best Buy. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Remember it is Apple's call how many they ship. Apple priority #1 is Apple stores. Priority #2 is AT&T. Everyone else gets left with what is available. You can't fault BB for this. They get what Apple gives them and that is the end of it. It looks bad due to the manufacturing bottleneck but hey, it happened.
I am also of the mind that if Apple can send tracking information on an individual pre order basis, why they can't do the same with retail shipments is beyond me but again I don't work there and have no idea about the logistics. I do think that BB policy on not giving out information even when they have it is kind of a slap in the face to customers but again I don't know their policies and why they are in place to begin with.
I can't imagine that Apple does not know exactly where each iPhone that hasn't been sold to a customer is along their supply/distribution chain.  When I ordered my car a couple of years ago I was able to track its production progress at the factory and then look up where the cargo ship it was coming in on was located as it crossed the Atlantic.  It's hard to believe that Apple does not have this information and is not sharing it with Best Buy or other third-party retailers.

  • When will Best Buy offer Vista Service Pack 2?

    It looks like all the Vista PC's on bestbuy.com have service pack 1.  Microsoft released Service Pack 2 on May 26.  When will Best Buy PC's come with Vista Service Pack 2 installed?  It is hard for a person to upgrade to SP2l themsevles?

    When you purchase your computer from best buy with optimization service (or for an existing PC) the update to SP2 is done during The optimization. At least at my precinct  we do.

  • Disappointing support - will not buy creative products any more

    Hi,
    just wanted to share my experience with creative support. Just to keep in mind for those planning to buy creative products...
    I bought a Zen X-fi 2 last summer. Mainly the features of sleep-timer and alarm using any mp3 file have been my selection criteria for this player, because I was interested in automatic switch-off in the evening and a wakeup in the morning by some nice music instead of a standard beeping of my alarm clock.
    Unfortunately, I am really disappointed now by creative. As I already reported here (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://forums.creative.com/t5/MP3-Players/Zen-X-Fi-2-Problems-with-snooze-function/m-p/56477)"]http://forums.creative.com/t5/MP3-Players/Zen-X-Fi-2-Problems-with-snooze-function/m-p/56477)[/url] I experience some bugs with the above mentioned features. Let me summarize:
    - interestingly, the alarm will repeat 3 times AT MAXIMUM, i.e., even if you choose "snooze" after the 3rd repeat, it will not repeat again.
    --> official (!!) statement of creative: "it is the intended behavior of the player, which shall avoid discharging of the player in alarm mode."
    ?Well I cannot understand this, because it should be a simple "if" statement in the firmware, to check whether the user pushed the screen or not. Of course I understand, that if the user does not do anything after the alarm went off, the repeating signal of alarm should be restricted in repetition to avoid the complete discharging. But as soon as user interaction takes place, the player should behave like it is expected from the labeling on the screen, right?
    ?- One reproducible bug: In general the player repeats the alarm 3 times at maximum also, if you just hit the touch-screen once, but do not choose "snooze" or "turn off alarm" (in addition, the buttons on the screen are too tiny in my opinion - just try to push the right button if you're sleepy in the morning...). BUT: at certain initial times of alarm (e.g. 6:40, 7:45 or 6:50, 7:50, 7:5), if you just hit the touchscreen once without further selections, the alarm does not repeat 3 times, but only once or twice AND it will repeat one or two hours later.
    ?--> Very interesting behavior. The only reaction of creative support: "we forwarded the feedback to our developers, but we cannot tell you if your recommendations will be implemented into the next firmware."
    ?Why are bugs like that treated as "feedback" or "recommendation" that apparently have not to be resolved?
    ?- finally, if you use the sleep-timer and your player powers-off in the evening (in the middle of a song, if you listen to music), then the player will continue the song as soon as you turned off the alarm the next morning. This is annoying, because you have to go to "Music -> now playing" and stop it also. A behavior I would not expect, do you agree?
    I waited for a corrected firmware for half a year now - nothing changed, only standard replies of the support, no offers how to solve these problems.
    Perhaps you now understand why I cannot recommend creative any more and definitely will not buy or recommend any creative product in the future.
    Originally, I thought that companies are interested in satisfied customers - seems like creative is going a different way...
    Keep this in mind before you finally choose creative...

  • IPod Touch 5g out of stock since last Friday (21th) when will Best Buy have a restock?

    I live in South Texas, and I keep on checking online and they say it's unavailable. 

    Hello omayraps12,
    I'm sorry that you're having trouble tracking down an iPod Touch. We get new shipments in to stores all the time, but I can't make any specific promises about when it might be in stock at a store near you. My best advice is to keep checking back to BestBuy.com or calling ahead to your regular Best Buy store for updates.
    Happy Shopping!

  • Will best buy carry Tales of Xillia 2 and the collector's edition?

    Hello, I just learned that the new Tales of Xillia 2 coming to ps3 in august will also have a collector's edition. I know Best Buy carried the first game and am hoping to use my GCU on the collectors if you guys will carry and be taking preorders on this. Thanks!

    Hey MuricanDavester,
    We have no word on Tales of Xillia 2 at this time, but as we carried the original it does seem a good bet that we will have the sequel.  As always, please keep an eye on www.BestBuy.com for any updates, and we will also try to post back here if we get any information for you.
    Thanks,

  • Will Best Buy get stocking the Elgato Game Capture HD?

    I would like to buy this item but you never seem to have interest in putting this highly requested product on display 

    Hello DopeMatt5-
    Generally, most of our displays are provided by the manufacturer. From what I can see about this product online, it appears to be a Marketplace item, which means that we don't normally carry it in stores and it's only available through these third party sellers.
    I hope that this helps!

  • No serial # on packaging, can't register APSE 10 that I bought at Best Buy today, have tried for Hou

    Have tried for hours to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.  I bought it at Best Buy today.  There is no serial number on the packaging.  There is one on the receipt but it includes alpha and numeric and the registration request for a serial number does not accept alpha.
    Very frustrating, I needed to us the product ASAP.

    You have a redemption code, which is used to retrieve the serial number.  See this Adobe document:

  • Will Best Buy carr the new JVC GZ-HD620BUS?

    It seems as if the current product line of camcorders seems a bit older. I saw the GZ-HD620BUS came out this month and was wondering if or when it would be available from BB. I've got some gift cards burning a hole in my pocket!
    Thanks!

    Hi Brodacious,
    This looks like a very nice camcorder, and I can understand you wanting to purchase it! Unfortunately we don't plan on carrying this camcorder when it is released for sale in February of this year. We instead will be offering the JVC model GZ-HD500BUS as part of our camcorder assortment.
    Thanks for posting,

  • What number will Best Buy contact you about picking up your iPhone 5?

    What phone number will they be using to contact people that preordered the iPhone 5?
    The Cell phone that the order was reserved for?
    The phone number associated with the reward zone account?
    I don't remember being asked for a contact number during the preorder process.
    Thanks,
    Travis

    When they asked me the best number to contact me at I gave them my cell number.  They also have my home number under my reward zone account.  They mentioned I would receive an email as well.  I'm sure they'll be able to contact me by one of those ways.
    Maybe you should double check with your BB to confirm what number they'll contact you at so you won't miss any phone calls.

  • HT1414 iPhone 4S and Sony MEX-BT3100U will not pair, I have updated iPhone software to iOS 7.0.4 to no avail.

    So I bought this Sony headunit at the weekend, it pairs with my iPhone 5 via bluetooth without problem. My iPhone 4S will not find it despite following all the steps from Sony and Apple.
    Sony state that it is compatible and that I need to take up the issue with Apple.

    Anyone resolved this problem?

    Hi amit786898,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPhone:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    Restarting your iOS device
    1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your device
    If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes. Please be sure to backup your iPhone first.

  • I think someone told me that apple doesn't have the iphone 5 in stock anymore, so if I bring my broken iphone 5(under warranty) is there any chance they give me a 5c or 5s?

    Idk if the stock thing is true but I think someone told me it.

    Someone told you wrong.
    An exchange under warranty will be the same model, storage capacity, and color.

  • Did Anyone else have a disruption on NBC HD Monday and Tuesday night?

    We were watching the voice on Monday & Tuesday night and both nights NBC HD completely stopped working on all our tvs ... I was wondering if that has happened to anyone else?

    Happened to us too, first time The Voice just froze and has to unplug the unit to unfreeze it, and it keeps freezing in the same spot.  The second night of The Voice it went to black and then starts playing Jay Leno.  Very weird, now we have missed the second half of both episodes of The Voice.  What is up??

  • Best Buy Warranty???

    I purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro March 9 2012. (Today is March 9 2014). The total cost was approx 900.00. I also purchased a 1 year warranty protection plan from Best Buy. At some point during the last year the Surface Pro would no longer accept a battery charge. In other words, the Surface Pro could not be charged and thus could not be operated unless it is plugged into an electrical power source. I took the Surface Pro to Best Buy on March 6th 2014 for warranty work. The following is an account of my experience with Best Buy.
    March 6, 2014
    "Hello, what can I do for you?" After a lengthy conversation I was informed that the Surface was under warranty. However, Best Buy would not repair it. But they would replace it.
    "So if you wish, why don't you take the Surface Pro home with you and remove all of your personal data. Then bring it back to us and we will replace it. We have one Surface Pro in the store which is available."
    March 9, 2014 Approximately 1M
    I return to the store with the Surface Pro with the intent of exchanging it for the one in the store.
    "Hello what can I do for you"?
    "Well here is the Surface Pro. I have removed all of my personal data and would like to exchange it".
    "Ah, yes, Now I remember your case. What is the problem with the Surface Pro?".
    "Recall, you tested it and found it would not take a charge. You said to take it home and remove all of my personal data. You said that you had opened a "process" or "case" and recorded all of the details concerning the Surface Pro. You said that it would be a simple matter of an exchange".
    "Oh yes, Now I remember. What is your name again?"
    "Good, let me look it up." "Ah, yes. Here it is. Hmmm, the problem is we don't have one in the store and there are none in the warehouse. Someone has placed a hold on it."
    "I see, can you check and see if other nearby Best Buy stores have a Surface Pro in stock"
    "Yes, there is one in stock at our San Francisco store, and one in our San Rafael store."
    "Good, can you ask them to send one to your store so I can exchange it?
    "No, we don't do that".
    "But let’s see, I think I can offer you a store credit for 599.00 and you can spend that on another tablet."
    "Oh, Oh, I just checked your warranty again and it looks like you warranty has expired."
    "But the warranty is for one year and it was purchase exactly one year ago today. And besides, you said you opened a process for my case and recorded all the details on the Surface Pro 3 days ago."
    " I know, but the process I started 3 days ago hasn't been closed so it expired today"
    "How can that be. 365 days will not have passed until midnight tonight. Therefore the warranty is valid"
    "No, we don't actually go by days. We go by the hour!"
    "I see, but you can see from my receipt that I purchased the Pro March 9 at 3M. And its only 1M at the moment. so even with an hourly deadline, the warranty is still valid"
    "No it is not. The warranty hour is eastern time which at this moment is 4 PM. So the warranty has expired."
    " Let me summarize the service you can or cannot provide.
    1. You will not exchange my Pro for the one you have in the store because someone has a hold on it although I thought I had a hold on it 3 days ago.
    2. You have 2 other Best Buy Stores nearby, that each have a Surface Pro in stock, but you will not have them delivered it to your store here.
    3. My warranty is expired because it is based on Eastern Time, although I am here 2 hours before the warranty expires by local time.
    4. And although I paid approximately 900.00 for the Pro 1 year ago, you could only offer me 599 of store credit if my warranty was valid"
    And so, my visit to Best Buy ended. I picked up my broken Surface Pro and left feeling like I had just been given the royal shaft. So please beware if you are considering purchasing anything from Best Buy. Alternatively, I have had nothing but great service and satisfaction from Amazon -- highly recommended.

    Hello eisaaks,
    Having an exciting new device develop problems is always at least a little bit aggravating as I know from my own experience. I certainly regret it if any action on our part added to your frustration.
    Mbrguy was quite right about our not reckoning the warranty's expiry by the hour, but by the day. In the case of your Surface, the product was covered by Microsoft for a period of one year from the date of purchase. As you acquired the Surface on March 9, 2013, the factory warranty in fact elapsed on March 8, 2014 at 11:59:59 p.m., the 8th being the 365th day.
    At this point, the only option that I can think of is to contact Microsoft directly for any potential options for your Surface. They should certainly be able to offer you repairs so that your Surface will function as intended. However, with the warranty expired, those repairs will likely be at your expense.
    I'm grateful that you took the time to share your experience with us.
    Sincerely,
    John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

  • Iphone 6 plus stock on sept 19

    Will local verizon stores have some iphone 6 plus stock for Sept 19th launch date.  Just want to ensure that I am not wasting my time if I plan on lining up before the store opens on that date.

        Luis23,
    Thank you so much for reaching out to us. This new iPhone is going to be AMAZING. I do know that the stores are going to have iPhones on the launch day. But, we have no idea how many they are going to have. It will be first come, first serve. Best of luck.
