Print Page Upside Down on Mac

It may sound strange, but sometimes it’s not as easy as a button click to print the way we need to. Maybe you’re printing on a strangely shaped paper or unusual envelope and cannot place the item in your printer the way it needs to be inserted. Or maybe you have a lengthy document to print and fill out and want to start with the last page first.

For situations like these, you can make a few simple adjustments before you print. These will let you print pages upside down or in reverse order on Mac. Here’s how to set them up.

The survival guide to pre-ordering your iPhone 6

Sébastien Page / February 5, 2018

Unlike last year, Apple will let you pre-order your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus tonight, starting at 12.01 am PT. If our recent poll is any indication, it seems that almost twice as many people will pre-order the phone rather than wait in line next Friday to buy it directly from an Apple Store or one of the authorized retailers.

Pre-ordering has both its advantages and its drawbacks, so you should carefully weight your options before making a decision. To help you out, we've created this survival guide to pre-ordering your iPhone 6 where we share some simple tips on how to prepare for tonight.

iPhone 5s online orders to start at 12.01am PST on September 20

Sébastien Page / September 13, 2013

The iPhone 5c might already be available for pre-order, but for some reason, Apple will not let you pre-order the flagship iPhone 5s. We speculated why, but we'll probably never know for sure the reasoning behind this decision.

If it's been clear since this week's event that the iPhone 5s would be available in store on the 20th, the exact time hadn't been made official until today, when Apple sent an email to customers saying the iPhone would be available for order online at 12.01am PST (3am EST)...

Many iPhone 5 pre-orders seen shipping earlier than expected

Cody Lee / April 10, 2018

If you pre-ordered your iPhone 5, either through Apple or your wireless provider, and didn't get it in within the first hour or so, chances are you haven't received the handset yet. Shipping estimates slipped to two weeks shortly after retailers began taking pre-orders last Friday.

But good news today for those of you that fall into that category. It appears that Apple has started shipping many "late" iPhone 5 pre-orders earlier than expected...

iPhone 5 shipping times fall to 3-4 weeks

Cody Lee / September 19, 2012

Apple started taking pre-orders for the iPhone 5 last Friday at 12:01 am. And it wasn't 45 minutes after that, that people started seeing estimated shipping times drop from one to two weeks.

The Cupertino company would later announce that it sold 2 million iPhone 5s during the first 24 hours of availability. And apparently it's having trouble keeping up with the high demand...

Some iPhone 5 pre-orders to ship faster than expected

Cody Lee / September 15, 2012

The iPhone 5 pre-order kickoff yesterday morning was fairly reminiscent of last year's launch. Apple's website, despite having months to prepare, quickly buckled under the influx of traffic, and more than half an hour passed before some folks could logon.

The real story though is how fast the initial pre-order stock of iPhone 5s ran out. Shipping times slipped from one to two weeks in less than an hour. Some people even saw their ship dates drop a week during the time it took them to place their order...

You can now pre-order your iPhone 5

Cody Lee / September 14, 2012

Well, they were a little late, but Apple is now taking pre-orders for the iPhone 5. If you live in one of the initial launch countries, you should be able to log into Apple's website and snag a handset.

Hopefully, the company has planned ahead this time for the influx in traffic, and we won't have to spend forever trying to place our orders. Last year it took me 2 hours to pre-order the iPhone 4S...

How to easily track your new iPad and Apple TV order

Jeff Benjamin / May 30, 2017

It's that time of the year again. We're all waiting on pins and needles until March 16th when the new iPad is officially available to the public.

As Cult of Mac's Killian Bell points out, Apple's own Apple Store app is a great way keep tabs on your new iPad and/or new Apple TV shipment.

It's not going to make your new iPad hit your doorstep any faster, but it's a nifty way to ease some of the anxiety of waiting...

iPad 2 Available for Order Online Now

Sébastien Page / March 11, 2011

It seems Apple turned the switch a little before the official 1am scheduled release. At about 0.50am here in California, I was able to purchase a couple white iPads for my mom and future mother in law.

Ordering went smoothly compared to my last experience pre-ordering the iPhone 4. I guess opening orders in the middle of the night is a good way for Apple to prevent massive amounts of visits to their site at the same time.

While Apple initially offered "fast shipping" on the iPad, my order is said to ship between 3-5 business days. Hopefully it will go faster.

Now time to go to bed because tomorrow I have to get in line to get my own iPad 2.
