2 days? This is why they should of left the up to date program up when it came up 2 days ago.... Maybe by now we would have our codes. lol
I am entering the code received in the password protected pdf only to be met with the "already been used" error like a few others.

Got my code in the email but it says "The code you entered is not recognised as a valid code"
Edit: it could be because I picked MacBook when I was supposed to pick MacBook Air.

On the other thread, a fellow MR has found out this much from Apple:
So that's something. Fingers crossed (well, we know they'll work it out somehow, this is really just an early adopter problem - still, not a good constituency to annoy).

Talk about a big flub-up. Very un-apple. Should have been a much more seamless process, and should have worked properly...
I have applied and got my reference number, but still no emails after 2 hours. Not even the first one.
How long has it been taking for all of you guys

What if I submitted my claim and picked MacBook because there was no option for MacBook Air. There is one now but I can't use the same serial number again. Still haven't gotten another code in the mail yet.
Same here. Even called my local apple "support". They can't do anything. Could take up to 72 hours to process the claim. Great support.
That's what spending 1200 dollars of hardware gets you. Getting the new OS after everyone in the world
Filed the claim yesterday....
Seriously. Check the serial online on the web, print the redeem code. Why the **** does it not work like that?

I spent a lot more than that on mine. Do you think we'll have to wait or contact them?

Ok thanks
Honestly, it's things like this that I can see why piracy is such a big problem. However, is it really piracy if I am entitled to the product?
Submitted mine more than three hours ago and still no emails/codes, while a friend did his shortly after mine and got a (working) code ten minutes later.
This really is a ****** up launch – no reason why they couldn't have opened the up to date application process weeks ago.
The people who buy the latest computers days after they are released are likely to be some of Apple's most loyal customers – those who rush to download the new OS the moment it is released, so you would think they would have thought this process through to avoid screwing them around and keeping them waiting. Disappointing!
