Apple's website has been so buggy since I preordered earlier. At this point, when I go to check on my order status, I either get an error message or a message that tells me to try again later. Is anybody else having this issue?
 
Seems to be a swing or a miss. When I see the error, I go back, sign in again, and sometimes the order shows up properly.

I can't even call Apple support to check it because they are experiencing extremely high call volume, and the automation tells me to call back later then hangs up. So annoying.
 
Lol...please just give it some time! People want miracles to happen overnight. Everything and anything dealing with the pre-order of the ipHone is slammed right now and things im sure will be worked out soon...we go through the same thing every year....
 
Unless you need to modify your order (cancel, change address, etc.), I'd say just wait a bit. I don't recall this occurring last year, and it may be annoying, but give it some time and don't stress too much over it.

just give it some time. I had the same issue. Got my order conf email within moments of placing the order. not worrying about it, haven't even tried again.

Use the store app. That will show you your orders.
 
I just checked on my work PC and it's showing the status. IF I try accessing it through the order number it errors out. Just go to your Apple account and check recent orders.

Tried both my Apple ID and the confirmation email but nothing shows up! Just going to wait it out and try again tomorrow!
