Download the UPS app set it up you can the track the shipment and change somethings

It's weird because I seem to get "This option is not eligible due to restrictions placed on the package by the sender." no matter what I try

Also, there is no signature requirement because of COVID so you don't have to be there to receive it (if that was the concern. I understand there could be other reasons to have UPS hold).

Thanks for the tip, my issue is kinda the opposite, my building has a security guard who receives all the packages, and because of the virus the property management company is insisting on them holding parcels for 30 hours (supposedly because the virus can live on cardboard for that long) before letting you get them, which sucks since it means I have to wait an extra 30 hours from when UPS delivers the box. I'll probably end up trying on the day it's delivered anyway and see if they'll let me have it before the 30 hours are up.
 
I have both the apps. How do I make it show up? Do I put in my order number or something?
Here are some screen shots from the UPS website.

When I ordered my keyboard the only option was standard shipping (2-day). UPS has been showing - label created for the last 2 days with a 4/22 delivery (Apple shows Preparing for shipment). Apple just notified me that it has shipped and will delivery on 4/23 - so that would align with "standard" shipping.

UPS MyChoice still shows delivery tomorrow 4/23. Since my iPad is still processing and has delivery of 4/21-4/23 - I would not want a keyboard before the iPad, so perhaps they will come same day!

Will be here soon either way and hopefully worth it.......
 
Kinda funny: Apple is saying mine will be delivered Thursday, UPS says Wednesday. I strangely trust Apple more.

I've had the opposite happen a couple times recently where Fedex and UPS apps both indicated earlier delivery dates than the vendors (Apple and Amazon, respectively), and indeed the packages were delivered per the carrier dates. I rely heavily on the two carrier apps and find them to be reliable and very helpful. My general experience with Apple order status is that it can take up to 24 hours for updates, which makes the waiting pretty hard.

Anyone in Canada got a tracking #. My order for 04/24-05/01 delivery has been stuck at PFS for a couple of days. Perhaps they are drop shipping a load to Canada.

i had bad luck, mine was at the local depot and out for delivery, then at 2:30 the delivery date updated to April 23rd. In Ontario.
 
I ordered mine on release day within 40 mins or so of sales going live. I was sitting on preparing to ship for about a day. I just got the notice that order has shipped via FedEx. Apple is saying delivery by 4/23, FedEx is saying by the end of Tomorrow (4/22). We'll see who's right.

Same here but UPS for me says 4/22 delivery despite Apple saying 4/23. We’ll see what happens.

showed up on fedex calender for delivery, then got cancelled, and now showing up again but no delivery date, just printed label. wish i could cancel at this point =.= preparing for shipment 48hrs.
 
Ugh, I'm getting annoyed. I ordered last night from BestBuy.com and chose Expedited delivery and it said it'd be delivered on 4/22 and shipping was $21.97 but I was like oh well. Its worth getting it before April 28th - May 5th like my Apple.com pre order said. This morning I get on here and see how someone said Best Buy's website is offering free overnight shipping when you order so I call Customer Service, wait on hold for 54 minutes to get my money back. The rep almost tries to tell me they usually can't do anything about timed promotions but finished by saying since I'm a Best Buy Elite Member they'll go ahead and refund my shipping. It's now 7:23 PM here and I have yet to get a shipping email. It just says "Getting it ready". It better come tomorrow I'll be pissed!
 
Ordered 4/15 2:12pm Eastern with a delivery date of 4/24-5/1, and UPS just updated with delivery by the 22nd. Woohoo!

UPS still only shows "Ready for UPS", and is still convinced it's gonna travel from TN to NC to my door by tomorrow afternoon. That seem unlikely to y'all?

thank you! The free shipping for the iPad was overnight so I assumed/hoped...

depending on your expectations I think it will be worth it. so far the reviews are good.

Same situation. I think Thursday like I said earlier. As soon as they receive the Shipment (sometime tonight(“), they will update the delivery estimate to Thursday, which is still earlier than Apple’s original estimate and just in time for the weekend :)
 
Ordered 4/15 @3:36pm PST. 12.9. Been stuck on preparing to ship for 24 hours. CC was charged. Hoping for some movement soon. Delivery 4/24-5/1
