MacBook Pro Late 2016 EU shipping

My MBP was expected to be delivered today, but I've just spoken to DHL who told me it was due to leave Amsterdam early this morning, however, it has been delayed due to severe weather conditions. Damn!

At least I can get on with some work today now and not be looking out of the window every 2 minutes

I ordered my Macbook Pro 15'' CTO from Humac in Denmark. And so far there are no news regarding a delivery date.
They confirmed to me, that the order was placed with Apple on the 3rd of November.
Does anyone here have any idea at all when one can expect the machine to be delivered?
 
Ordered on November 3rd, original delivery window was 12-15, got anticipated to the 9th, got actually delivered today (15" BTO, to Italy with DHL). Finally my aging (and barely working) early 2010 model can be put to rest :)

When did you get your shipping notification?
[doublepost=1481035819][/doublepost]I just received my shipping notification. What do you guys think will I actually receive it?:) (Germany)
 
I have to admit I can see some improvements

Should I do a clean install? Should I do an smc ( ? ) reset?
If so, how do I do that?
I've read somewhere I would lose some op the installed apps when reinstalling, is that correct?

I don't think there's a reason to reinstall a new Mac, those aren't loaded with bloatware like Windows machines.

Mine has arrived at the East Midlands sorting facility too, exact same time haha. Turns out there was a delay at Amsterdam airport due to poor weather conditions - 100% coming tomorrow though
 
****. My status just changed to: "The carrier has communicated the date of delivery: check the estimated date of delivery"

But I have no carrier asigned! In carrier says: "NL DISTRIBUTION CENTER". So my MBP is still in the Netherlands?? it was supposed to be delivered tomorrow in Spain (that's what Apple costumer service said).

I don't understand this Apple nonsense.
 
I received mine earlier today and it's no longer starting up :( :( :(

I thought it was still better for battery life to first use it until it shut down on its own and then charge it again to 100%
(Now I've read this is no longer needed)
After it shut down, I tried charging it up again, but when I tried to start it up again I can't seem to get it to work... :(
Since there is no longer a light showing that it is charging I don't know if it is charging.
When I connect my usb-hub, it still shows a green light so I guess there should still be some power left in my macbook.
If I connect my charger to the usb-hub it also shows a green light so I would guess the charger is working as well :(

Has anybody heard of similar problems and possible sollutions?

****ing holidays! :mad: My MacBook Pro comes tomorrow because today is holiday in Spain. I need it!!
[doublepost=1481014326][/doublepost]Oh! The DHL status change to: "Shipment on hold". "Due to a public holiday at the destination the shipment processing is on hold for this period" But the shipment is NOT on hold in destination, but in a transit center. Apple Status change too to: "Holiday/Closed - please contact carrier for new delivery appointment".

I hope that tomorrow all resume with normality.

Sorry mate! UPS delivered to me today on their service point "punto Kiala" I was expecting it by tomorrow as today was a bank holiday!! When did you order? We will meet at the owners thread!
 
13" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar in Space Grey (base spec with upgraded RAM to 16GB)

  • Ordered on 8th November
  • Pick up date on 20th December
  • Status changed to "Preparing for Dispatch" on 6th December
  • Status changed to "Shipped to store" on 6th December (Pick up date changed from 20th December to 14th December)
 
My status just got updated! UPS is bringing it tomorrow wednesday!

It says it's in Italy now.
 
So still nothing changed... "Processing"!
Ordered on the 6th November, 15" BTO with 460 graphics. Delivery 12-16 Dec in Germany.

Do you think I will get it?
Seems to take about a week from P4s to actual shipment or not?
Was really expecting an early delivery because of all the people who got their devices much earlier!

How long did you charge until you tried booting it up again? Give it some time and if nothing happens try to press the power button for some time and see if anything happens (10 seconds or so)
