When I visited the UK Apple online store to reserve our iPhone 4s I encountered a slight problem. On the Reserve & Pickup page the drop down to “select a store” did not get populated correctly in Safari. I closed Safari and then opened it again. I tried this a few times before giving up.

I finally decided to have a try with a different browser and was successful in ordering 2 iPhone 4s using Firefox. Even after placing my order it took a long time before I received my email confirmation, so do not be too worried if you don’t get your email for up to 30 mins.

Isn’t it ironic that I was unable to order the latest shiny new Apple iPhone on an Apple computer using Apple Software. Just over an hour later it looks like my problem has been fixed as the MacPro can load the drop down properly. You can imagine my frustration at not being able to place my reservation…

Success!!!

Looks like I will be at Regent Street with all the other Apple Fans to pick up my iPhone 4 on Thursday 24th June.
