Sigh, my 16" M1 Max was originally scheduled between Nov 26 and Dec 3, just got pushed back to Dec 1-8.
Ditto here. Just got a update for my 16 Max/10/32/32G/1TB which was scheduled for 11/26-12/3 (like yours) and is now just like yours now scheduled for 12/1-8. I guess we have to assume it is the MAX Chip causing this (or the lack thereof). Going to sleep on it while considering just cancelling it. BTW it was ordered on 11/1 via Vet Store.

Anyone have something like this after getting UPS tracking info? Its about 24 hours i have the tracking number.
As well spoke to apple support. They said it was the correct tracking info and that the package was coming from US and not China. I live in Montreal, Canada

Let me answer this with another question.. Did you order the base model of any type? I have an idea of what is going on but wanted to be sure on the model purchased.

Hi @diruocoo

Welcome to Apple/UPS purgatory!!! There are quite a few us in the same situation. My 16" Max with 24 core GPU, 32GB Ram, and 1 TB SSD that was ordered on 10/25 has been stuck on the same UPS message since Friday 11/19. No one at Apple or at UPS can tell me anything about the shipment (they just blame each other). According to Apple, I am supposed to have my Mac delivered to me in Oregon by 12/1. There is a sub-Reddit with a bunch of the same from others who are having their machines shipped with UPS. Seems like Apple created the labels, with tracking, and those machines have been sitting in some warehouse waiting for UPS to pick them up. Not sure why Apple would send shipping details to customers and then let them sit? I would have been more understanding if my order was "preparing to ship" and not "shipped" but not really shipped.

Wow, this thing is impressive. Moving from a 2016 16”MBP which is nice, but new one…jesus, the display, the keyboard, the speakers, the magsafe, so nice… now just have to wait some hours for migration assistant to pull everything over, which looks like 6 hours from now, and then crank up all those cores and ****

Well that really sucks. I guess itll be a while before they'res any update from ups. I have my choice with my address and email and never got an email about an incoming package so it was asign that there was 0 movement

Exactly the same as me. MyChoice and everything, but no updates or even entry into the UPS system. Really dissapointing. So close but still so far away!!

Got it. You're matching what I think is happening. Regardless of ordering on launch day or after, if yours is coming from the US and not China, Apple has been able to get stock of various models sent out to their warehouses so instead of being completely BTO, they have those BTO options in their warehouses so they can be picked from there instead of built at the factory.

If you're in Montreal, if Apple doesn't have a warehouse in Canada (which if they did, I'd assume Canada Post would be handling the delivery), I'm guessing that your Mac should be coming from Carlisle, PA, then shipped up. If that's the case, check for the departure scan on your purchase, then check for the closest airport relative to that departure scan. That should be your flight. If it's an international airport, it will be going straight to Canada.

This one is going to be a bit tricky, because the funny thing about airports and customs is that you don't have to be labeled "International Airport" to be an international airport. Any airport in the US can be an international airport, as long as Customs can make it to the airport and be able to clear any scans of people or cargo.

In the case for Apple's warehouse in Carlisle, the closest airport that can accommodate it with customs available is KMDT - Harrisburg International Airport. If it is coming from Carlisle, that would be the airport to look at.

Again, this all depends on where the warehouse is that has your Mac. Check for that when the departure scan is made, and post where it is. we'll be able to get you to the available airport that has it so you can track it.

As far as cargo goes, all of it goes to CYMX - Montreal-Mirabel. So I'd assume your arrival scan would go there. However in looking at Mirabel's flights, all UPS flights to Mirabel come from KSDF, so your Mac, again assuming it's coming from Carlisle, would fly KMDT-KSDF-CYMX.

Again, this is all departure scan dependent.

Are you in Canada or the US. So confused why it's different from others not having this issue who also have ups

I got my tracking number late friday night/early saturday morning and mine is still says "details not yet available". Fellow Canadian here.
 
Still no change to my status after my order for some mysterious reason got bumped by ~7 weeks. It was put into priority production queue and the Apple rep told me that won't be reflected on the order tracking page until it ships. Sigh... Really hoping it actually does something and my Nov 25 date that became Jan 12 date doesn't reflect when I'll actually get the laptop.

Same here. Got the tracking number but UPS says tracking number not found. As it was now Tuesday and I would assume any preprinted label orders would be picked up by now, I chatted with Apple support this morning. At first support said “Don’t worry its coming” lol. I insisted I wanted a better answer and a “specialist” took over and said he/she were putting a trace on it and would know in 24-48 hours. I’m in BC Canada, BTW.

BC may be an anomaly. Keep in mind that CYVR got hit as bad with the flooding as the rest of Vancouver proper. I have friends of mine that are in Coquitlam that are still cleaning up from the floods.

Just something to think about there, outside the fact that no details have come up for the tracking number.
