Is there any way to update my order colour while it’s still processing?

I didn’t realize that once you selected an item in the mobile application you could not change the colour anymore. I intended to order the silver MacBook Pro, but ended up ordering space gray. If I cancel and re-order, it will delay my order by 20 days.


Is it possible for me to contact someone to change the colour? I tried using their contact method through the application but it said to try again tomorrow.


I don’t think it’s very good UX to have the colour selection outside the device configuration.

If it is still processing yes— See "Edit Your Order" after the jump

Cancelling the order and reordering will definitely push out the delivery date.

Thanks for the response!

I checked the page listed, but it doesn’t seem to give an option to change the colour. Do you know what steps I would need to take? Or do I need to wait until I can contact an Apple specialist?


Well if you do not see in your order or the UI to make the change—


then yes I would Call Customer Support (800) MY–APPLE (800–692–7753)
