You can go to the UPS website and click on "track by reference". There you use your phone number as reference, and it will pop up.

ANd be sure to use the phone number that is printed on your order confirmation. Mine was my work number (associated with my Apple iTunes account)... that was what was throwing me off...

You are at least trying. I'm not going to update my other phone till tomorrow. Apple servers might be hammered right now. Not worth wasting the battery on it ;)
It failed on the phone 3x so I fired up iTunes and did it from there, went through on the first try. :)

I have to go somewhere for about 30 minutes on Friday. Can I leave UPS a note stating to leave the phones at the front office? I live in an apartment. I don't want them to leave it at the door.

Not worried as I have shipping that shows its to be delivered on the 21st. I wouldnt believe what you heard.

Have pre-ordered every apple product and always been delivered when they say on release day.

Orders 2. One online one in store. (AT&T web site and store). The one online has tracking # and is in Kansas scheduled for Friday 3pm delivery. The one in store showers nothing. Here is my question...shipping Weight shows 2# could that be both phones?

I went on ups and looked up my iPhone order... (thanks for the help people of imore)
Anyways I was thinking about why it's being held back and if I can call ups and ask them to speed up the delivery and I came across this...

I can't attach pic from iPad. So I'll just copy and paste what they wrote...

Important information for iPhone Customers
Apple has required that UPS deliver iPhone shipments to customers on and not before Friday, September 21, 2012. iPhone?s are scheduled for Friday, September 21 2012.

Why isn't my package moving? The packages are being staged in key locations and moved on a coordinated schedule for delivery on the shipper's planned release date, Friday, September 21, 2012.

I received my "your order is being processed" email from Apple at 3:10AM (EST), so you can see I was able to order my iPhone 5 fairly quickly. However, I haven't received any new emails from them, and when I follow the Order Number on their website it still says "Preparing for Shipment". Frustrated, I jumped on UPS' website and tried tracking the shipment via my cellphone number tied to my Apple ID. And wouldn't you know it, it was processed in China on Sunday, shipped out of Hong Kong on Tuesday, and left Arkansas yesterday. More than likely it's headed straight to the UPS hub in my hometown (3~ miles from my house) and not Louisville, hopefully. Here's to crossing my fingers and getting my iPhone 5 tomorrow just like I got my 4S a day early last year! :D

Also, for anyone interested, I ordered the black 64GB on AT&T. :)

Apple still shows my order as Processing for Shipment, but with the UPS trick I found out my iPhone left Arkansas early Tuesday morning, and I'm betting it's headed to the UPS by my house. Because of the relatively small town I live in, here's to hoping I get my iPhone 5 a day early like I did last year with the 4S! :D
