I don't want to be cruel to the OP, but man, Stevie Wonder could have found the two or more related threads already on this PAGE. A new thread was totally unnecessary, my friend 😉
I knew this would happen so I'm prepared for it. For me, a new thread was necessary cos 30mins of searching didn't find the answer.
Whatever you say, I couldn't find an answer (that 'shipped on the 21st' thread, for example, goes on forever).
Perhaps someone would at least put a link here for a thread that answers my question?

Well instead of giving you a link, I can give you an answer to your question -in fact, 2 answers:
1. We don't know why tracking isn't working correctly on Apple's website, we can only guess
or
2. Some people have contacted Apple/couriers and have been told that Apple's systems are overwhelmed with order processing right now, hence the screwy tracking etc. Personally, I don't believe answer "2" as I have yet to hear of a successful company who doesn't know how to either take money from bank accounts on time or link tracking numbers to their website. I think they are just holding back with the info until it gets closer to Friday.

We don't know
I think JonnyIreland's first answer sums it: we don't know!
I have spent a lot of time following the ins-and-outs and ups-and-downs of the 'shipped on the 21st' thread and I'm really none the wiser 🙄
Hopefully, the tracking will start to work over the next 48hrs as our iPads are collected by the couriers and then, at last, we will have some answers (and, sometime on Friday, our shiny new iPads 😀)
