Do you seriously sit there with your phone plugged in and charging with headphones on? How often does this realistically happen. This seems so absurd to me.


I do it every day at work. The phone sits in a stand and stays plugged on with the screen always on. Then, I listen to podcasts on my headphones while I work.
 
Did you get this figured out? I had the same problem, after talking to someone at apple care it turns out it was showing as not enrolled because the phone didn't have apple care + (which it should have because I purchased through the iphone upgrade program)... anyway, during some automated process within their system, the apple care + got transferred to some other serial #. They corrected this and now I am showing as eligible. So for anyone having this issue, check your coverage to verify your apple care + was applied correctly...

if it's not, call apple

Mine was the same way, but they added the apple care, and I can see the apple care, but phone doesn't show up as enrolled. No one at apple seems to know how to do that.

Hmm this might be it, it shows my coverage ends this month, but isn't Applecare for 2 yeas? I'm going to contact Apple to see if i get this taken care of. Thanks!
 
hopefully the headphone jack people will lead to a slightly smaller number of preorders..although I had no problems getting the phone I wanted last time.

You see apple care + right? not just apple care?... The last green check mark will say "Covered by AppleCare+"

Yes, I see applecare +, and they confirm it. On the phone with them now, don't think they know what to do.
 
Sounds good. Historically how many minutes (or seconds) after 12:01 will they run out?
When I ordered the 6 through the Apple Store App, it took about an hour for the order to go though. It was taking forever for the phones to show as available. I did get the phone on launch day. With the 6s, it took like 5 minutes for the order to go through.

Yeah sometimes it takes awhile for the email confirmation to be sent to you...thats why people normally freak out when they dont get it right away.
 
Yes but why you wait, you can always start a thread on here about how come you didn't get the email!

EXACTLY! Im sure there will be about 7 threads on that darn confirmation email. I just order and then go right to sleep, I have always woke up in the morning and its there. People get their panties all in a bunch this time of the year.
 
Will order a Jet Black Plus 128GB from Denmark. Hopefully I will get in the first wave and get it on launch day.

This fixed my issue, AppleCare wasn't active on my phone, it's been fixed and now says I'm eligible for the upgrade. Thanks a lot!

Sweet. Hopefully this year follows the trend of the process time being quicker. I will be ready at 11:45pm. My only concern is the phone selling out before I can check out.

If you get your order in early...like right at 12 pm pst time, you should be ok.

But looks like the Plus might sell out faster and I think the black models will go faster.
 
i went through the app store and had my phone the Monday after the Launch, so i only had to wait through the weekend (launch was a friday) i ordered at 12:04 but the processing took like an hour
