The UPS way

Traditionally, my Apple products have arrived via FedEx, which include a few iPhones in the past. Never received Apple products via UPS. I'm in San Jose, California.
 
Anyone know how long it generally takes to receive the UPS MyChoice activation codes? Do they mail you a letter?

This process (and My Choice) don't seem to work if you are shipping to a business address. At least, in my experience.

Has anyone found otherwise?

Somehow UPS thought my address is a business address, so I couldn't enroll in My Choice. I was able to get my tracking information using the technique provided by the OP, I believe the only difference My Choice make is whether you could see the estimated delivery time.
 
I just used the UPS app to check on my watch and got a bit more information from it than what is on the website. From the app it looks like my watch is in Tennessee. Can't wait until Friday.

Glad they are using UPS, I like them much better than FedEx.

Yeah I think overall UPS does a better job. I thought Apple had an exclusive with FedEx because I've only ever gotten FedEx for Apple but I understand they've actually used UPS quite a bit as well.
 
Thanks for this. I was able to locate my tracking number and is currently in a UPS Hub Mount Juliet, TN leaving on 4/23 via Next Day Air Saver. Glad to take a day off on 4/24 :)

Macrumors never ceases to amaze me how people are able to find tracking numbers on UPS. I've been trying to Track by Reference since yesterday. Who would've though to manually change the date that you can't even select?!

I was able to find my tracking this way, but I did not need a MyChoice account. But mine doesn't show the From info like others on here showing it's coming from TN.

You're right! Info showed up after signing into UPS MyChoice. I was also request to hold at Customer Center nearby so hoping to get it at 8AM on Friday :cool:

Mine has been preparing since yesterday. Can't find tracking info by reference or when logged into ups mychoice. Maybe this means mine is coming Fedex i hope.

Go to UPS, change to "Track by Reference", manually change the date from 4/21/2015 to 4/23/2015 (you have to type this, you can't choose via the graphic calendar), and use your phone number (no spaces) as the reference ID. I was just able to find mine!

This worked for me, and I got both of my tracking numbers. Thanks!
