My plus is in the same mode. Wonder if the plus's are just lagging or if they really won't ship on time.
Got a tip for us?

My plus is in the same mode. Wonder if the plus's are just lagging or if they really won't ship on time.
Ah, getting close... Pretty sad that my phone is traveling way more than I did this summer....
If it follows the route of all my other apple stuff it will be Kentucky > Fort Lauderdale > Me !!!
BTW, whats with the apple store tracking, they are still showing preparing for shipment, at this rate I will have the phone before they update it to shipping!

Stop worrying. My phone is in "Preparing for Shipment" as was my iPhone 5 until Wednesday or so (maybe even Thursday) when I preordered that. I don't understand the paranoia on here.
I ordered an iPhone 6 and a iPhone 6+. The 6 has shown up on profile page, and one of them has shown up on ups. I am missing one still, and I think its the +.
Has anyone else not received a ups notice or get updated on profile page? I am getting a bit worried although it does still show 9/19 on apple.com...

My phone arrived in ZhengZhou at 11:15PM, so I'm assuming it's part of a later batch. Hopefully this means it'll ship out soon after.

Yeah, forget that apple "preparing for shipment" I get the same thing. Im going by UPS.
The method for finding all the information has been listed several times on this thread, but with over 3,000 responses it may be difficult to find.How did you find this information?
Curious to see where mine is.
This is copied from member kdParker who had a great summary on their thread about tracking orders:
Where phone originated from and current location.
Apple will automatically add your phone with it's serial number in your support profile. You can see it here: https://supportprofile.apple.com/
You can look up the week of manufacture and factory here: http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html

9/15
Looks like tracking numbers are flowing in for the preorders (if you search by reference) and UPS or FedEx.
My reference number was the phone number of the phone I am replacing. That is also the main phone number on this Apple ID. Some people have their home phone associated with their ID so they used that as the reference number on UPS. I haven't followed anyone using FED EX this time.

Not worried. Just curious as its the plus model that is lagging. Maybe they are already here or apple might ship them late.
Canadian here Preordered a 64gb silver iphone 6
My iphone 6 has been on my support page for a couple days now, no tracking info (tried my phone numbers, receipt number, etc), says Sept 19 delivery on my apple orders page.
Thanks to skimming this thread I went back and had a better look at my invoice which made me happy. On my invoice it says shipping date Sept 14, from F/G Distribution Center

Fellow Canuck, can't wait to get mine. Didn't get an invoice yet but only just got my serial number on the support page today. Best of luck with your order
Dude this is all part of it, frantically refreshing any and everything tracking every turn and step of the way mind you we're all OCD in here.
Not true actually. My tracking info didn't populate in UPS until the early morning. I had been searching by reference with no luck, and right about the same time I created a My Choice account it finally was put into the system after 1AM.
MOUNT JULIET, TN US Sep 15, 2014 1:18:25 AM BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED
Quite a few 6/6+ phones are already state side. I think Apple will meet everyone (at least 99%) of the 19th orders if that's what they quoted. With so many phones already in the US at various hubs and holding centers, most are easily within a day's delivery with UPS' service. Because they are dispersed at various sites around the country many of us will probably not get tracking data until Wednesday Night/Thursday Morning. Phones seem so strategically placed that I doubt they fly to UPS central hub and then back. I think there are many that are just a short truck/flight away from our doorsteps.
I did get the label created information, but not "tracking" data. I am not expecting this until tomorrow night at the earliest. I hope I'm wrong
Interesting as this is the first time in past three iPhones that I have not tracked from China. Seems Apple "preloaded" many warehouses before the official announcement.
6+ Gold 128Gb ATT/Ordered App Store 12:22 PST/Made Week 35 (September), Preparing for Shipping 9-13/ CC-cleared 9-16, Waiting for "Shipped" to appear

I was promised 9/19 from the get-go. Tonight I received an email from Apple stating that ATT had cancelled my order.
To the back of the queue!

They definitely seemed more prepared this time around. I was looking forward to tracking from China again too and was shocked to see so many local. They have definitely done some strategic placement where alot of stock doesn't have to be moved until the day before. This gives them a much better guarantee of preventing early arrivals like in years past and a better guarantee they dont miss any delivery date promises.

Ouch that sucks big time. Did they give any reason why they cancelled it?
For REAL-That sucks! What did ATT do to cause this...
Did you order directly from Apple???

Hiya
Did you order it on Friday too? I got my invoice email on Sunday. Naturally I just skimmed it
without noticing the details at the bottom due to the format being a little messed up.Have you seen that map that shows the 2 different zones and corresponding dates of delivery?
Based on it, I should get mine on Friday. I won't start worrying until Thurs if my shipping status has not changed from processing.
----------
AT&T apparently said my line wasn't eligible for an upgrade. Called them and straightened it out, but there's no way Apple can simply reinstate an order.
Exact same situation, no tracking number yet. What model did you order?
Oh also, my status didn't even change to preparing for shipment until super late Sunday night. It seems like even though I ordered my phone at 2:15PST, my phone is in the back of the queue.
Ordered from Apple. But apparently ATT blocked the sale because of a mistaken upgrade eligibility problem.
damn still no update for me and it's suppose to ship tomorrow. Oh well
----------
same here, i'm like come on just update lol
----------
Someone could help me?
My order status is: Preparing for Shipment
Delivers: 9/19 by Standard Shipping
In my support profile page I see my iphone 6 serial number, but I worried because I can't get the tracking number yet and this status "Preparing for Shipment" is stuck since Monday.
Someone in same situation?
same here, i'm like come on just update lol
