Problem with rotation and landscape mode in iOS 8

From start of iOS 8 I have got problem with rotation in my iPhone 5S 32GB as well as in my iPad mini retina 32GB. Automatical rotation to landscape mode is not working correctly. For example if you take the phone or tablet to landscape mode in base display and tap to Safari, Mail, Messages, the app will start but stay in normal mode, not landscape. Then you have to back the phone to normal portrait mode and back to landscape and only then the phone do the landscape mode. I have never seen this problem in iOS 7 or older.
Could you help me anyone with this problem? Or is the problem generally in iOS 8.
Thanks a lot
Jakub

Brian, thanks, but it's not a rotation lock issue - at least not relating to the rotation lock setting. It's just a general use setting. Right now i have my iPhone propped in landscape mode. If I now hit the home button, essentially returning to a portrait setting though my phone is still positioned in landscape, then open any other app that supports landscape, that app WILL NOT orient itself to landscape mode. It will stay in portrait mode. The phone has to be physically oriented to portrait, then back to landscape for the app to register landscape mode properly. This is a glitch, and not a rotation lock issue. it ought to be noted that this was not an issue in iOS 7 or any previous iteration.

Out of the box, the fonts will suck.
Go through the following wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Font_configuration and configure your fonts. You also need to make sure you have a couple good fonts installed. Then setup the hinting, filter etc and it will be much improved.
I have used Infinality in the past and it works very well as well but made too many changes, one of which resulted in an issue with an app that was difficult to track down. Haven't used it lately so do not know the status.

Problem with rotation and keyboard click sound

Ok, there's still a problem with the rotation and keyboard click sound and I thought I had the problem fixed.
It's a serious bug when you want the keyboard click sound enbabled without having the rotation locked. I noticed this bug started when I had the previous iosinstalled 7.0.6.
Everytime I wanted to enable the keyboard click sound, I have to always go to settings and have lock rotation checked. And it would stay locked.
If I wanted to rotate my iPad, I have to have mute enabled, but no keyboard click sound.
I know it sounds confusing. I'm already confused... beh.

I completely forgot about that.
Thank you!

N8 problem with side lock key

Hi,
Did anyone find any problem with N8 side locking key. Mine one has to be slided really hard to get it locked and unlocked, the mechanism is not as smooth as in the earlier phones.
Trying to wrap people in the cocoon of seamless connectivity during their mobility.

I also have this problem after installing version 5.0.0.508. It appears that I no longer have an option for locking the keyboard. When I select Options/Screen/Keyboard and select Left Side Convienence Key Options it does not show up in the list of selectable options.

Problem with rotating music iPhone6

Hello,
I have one really annoying problem with my iPhone 6. I had it since i bought it and I hoped that with the new iOS 8.2 it's gonna be fixed, but unfortunately it wasn't. The problem is when I listen to music and I rotate my phone into landscape mode the screen becomes black (normally there should be a list of the albums)
Here I uploaded two pictures of the action. Also I want to say that I am not the only one with that problem, my friend is also having iPhone 6 and he has the same problem. We tried to restart and reset our phones, but nothing happened. I would be really grateful if you could help me to fix that.

You will need to take the phone back to the U.S. (or send it to a friend or relative in the U.S) for service.

Screen Problems with iMac G5 20" (iSight)

Hello!
I had the same problem with my iMac G5 20" (iSight) as described by Bob North Apr. 18, 2006 at http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/imacg5/topic2276.html#apr25:
"""" I repair Apple products, and recently I've seen strange and erratic display problems with the G5 flat-panel (iSight) 17" and 20"...and I am very curious about the origin. The picture will display what I will call "plaid pixles". Upon boot, the dispaly appears normal, but within 5-10 minutes, either at desktop or in ASD, the normal display will "crash" to the "plaid" display. The desktop, or whatever, can still be distinguished in the background, but it is overwashed by the plaid patterns -- which do change slightly, and also cover the full space of the screen. I've seen different scenarios, 3 in 2 weeks, where the symptom is exhibited with no particular failure pattern -- both before and after repair. I've replaced the main logic on one occasion, with no fix...but the 2nd try replaced both display panel and inverter. The display issue was fixed, but the system exhibited lockups only when it reached the destop. Another repair the same issue was seen after replacing the 20" main logic, where the symptom was not present previous. Personal opinion of the late 2005 IMAC flat-panels, in the hardware sense, is the likelihood of component manufacture issues, possibly the main logic boards or the panel displays themselves. Repair of this model, as opposed to the earlier, non-iSight flat-panel 17 and 20" models are extremely difficult -- access to main componenets is blocked by the display panel, which must be removed for each troubleshooting attempt. The internal hardware design is not oriented for repair ease...they are by far the most difficult to work on.
Any input regarding the display issues? Thanks.""""
I can't use the mouse or anything else, and after a while the fans start to go on max. This is the second time I encounter this problem within 30 days. What I have noticed is that the day before, the brightness of the screen started to "blink" slightly -- like if the screen tried to adjust itself.
But I haven't experienced what Bob North describes as the: "Upon boot, the dispaly appears normal, but within 5-10 minutes, either at desktop or in ASD, the normal display will "crash" to the "plaid" display".
I just restart with the power button and everything is working OK. I made an Extended Hardware test without any problems detected.

Does it look anything like this?

My nearly 3 year old Titanium PowerBook G4 just did this one day, out of the blue. The problem went away after a few minutes, but I had already taken photos. Thanks to those photos, Apple gave the powerbook a new logic board.
(This PowerBook has had its logic board replaced twice, a new optical drive, and a cracked case edge replaced. AppleCare has more than paid for itself. Despite the occasional problems, I remain very happy with this machine. I'm sure I'd be much less happy if I had not bought AppleCare!)

Pavilion dv7-1245dx loads apps slowly, freezes w white screen, hangs with rotating icon

I have dv7-1245dx, less than 1 year, running Windows 7, Norton, Microsoft Office apps, esp Outlook, use several real estate apps that are web-based. I'm trying to run my business with this machine, but am having constant performance problems: loads apps very slowly (1-2 minutes), freezes at random times (no pattern I can detect) and the screen turns white, or system just hangs and displays the rotating icon endlessly. Usually, my only resort is a hard shutdown (ctr-alt-del doesn't work as it won't take any input). Have run optimization/maintenance tools, had repair person and geek squad look at it, but either it seems fixed then starts these behaviors again in a week or so, or they say they can't diagnose any problems with the maintenance tools. Can anyone help me? Thx!

I have the same issue with a Pavilion DV7 19xx running vista home premium, it freezes every 20 seconds for a minute, so that it appears that the programs are not responding, however after a minute or so it starts to run normally., only to freeze 20 seconds later again, something impossible to fix,I tried to run a chcdisk, with no positive result, and the restore point seems to have been lost or deemed invalid...
This even happens in all fail safe modes
So I downloaded the service manual, as the warranty has expired on this particular model that was a replacement model for another model that went bust and was given to us instead of very severely mal-designed laptop, that either was a Monday model, or was bad from the design out...
I opened it(the new model), and the cooling ribs was full of dust, and this on a model that is less than a year old(however without warranty due to specific circumstances). A PC requires service, just like a car, but not in less than a year...
in regard to heat problems..
This model as the former, got so hot that it was to hot to sit on my wifes lap, I would even state that it is a fire hazard, and that HP should look into this NOW before it ignites a fire somewhere and a law suit drops in and they would have to recall PCs like auto mobiles sometimes get recalled..
there is an open space, just behind the cooling ribs where a fan draws in air (and dust), however the ribs spacing is so small that any dust will get caught there, after a while there is so much dust that the heat sinking performance is lost and the PC starts to shut down, due to overheat.. however, it can stall, and just keep on heating, until it reaches some critical point.
I am generally getting very tired of these issues with HP laptops, and will most certainly not buy one, the next time my wife needs an Upgrade due to my experiences with not 1 but 2 different laptops, that is not up to the job, they claim to be...
In fact, I'm speculating in submitting a complaint, to my countries "ombudsman", that takes care of these issues and can invoke certain penalties on companies who are breaking certain marketing laws such as supplying products that continuously keeps breaking down... due to mal design.. a mal design is for example when a speeder in a car jams.
I would still be great-full for any advice on how to fix the freezing problem..
I cannot recommend though to open your laptops without you being a skilled technician, and you will need the service manual to do it..
Any advice/recommendation is welcomed, although I'm not optimistic..
I'm 36 years old and have been working with computers since I was 12, so I'm not some kid that is just mad, in fact I do understand that sometimes in order to earn money in these days, things are getting rushed, and when they do, errors happen as we are all humans..

Is there a fix coming for the iPad Air's issues with rotation locking???

The iPad Air has an annoying glitch in its occasional (frequent) shift to landscape mode, and locking in that position. Is this a known/reported issue with a fix coming?
This didn't occur with the older version of the iPad.
Thx.

Problem with file locked by another user

I have a problem with a user on Windows 7 in my network when accessing a single .xlsx file. When Jane Smith opens said file, she gets a message that the file is locked by Jane Smith but she has checked and it was in use by another user, Roger Smith.
This happened over a weeks time and is not a one-off situation. Researching online, I tried one suggestion by going to Roger Smith's computer and into the registry under HKEY CURRENT USER, navigated to "Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\UserInfo",
expecting to see Jane Smiths name and initials. Nope, that wasn't the problem. I went ahead and deleted extra profiles on the computer and ran a repair on Roger Smiths Office 2013.
It was okay for a half a day then towards the end of the day, Jane Smith calls back to say again the same file is locked by Jane Smith yet this time Diana Smith had the file open.
So, the file is locked but why is Excel not reporting the correct user? What can I do to address this?

These all reference Office 2007 and 2010. As far as you know, all of these fixes still apply to Office 2013?
example: they give two updates to download.
Excel 2007 - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2598133
Excel 2010 - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2598143
No option for 2013.
but this could be useful no matter the version.
In the Shared folder or the File Server;
Open the folder where the Document is located.
Click Tools=>Folder Options
Click the View tab
Scoll down to Advanced Settings>Hidden files and folders
Select Show hidden files and folders and Unselect Hide protected operating system files
Look for a temp lock file and delete it. It should look something like
~$filename.xlsx or whatever file extension the it was saved in.
(In my case, this file had become corrupt and was stuck displaying an earlier modify date from a few days ago..)

Acrobat Pro V8 problem with rotating PDFs

I have CS3 suite with Acrobat Pro V8.1.2 running on OSX 10.5.4.
I rotate PDFs for our printer (photographic Lightjet430 laser printer using postershop) it saves time, and it also makes things easier for us in general.
Now I sometimes rip the PDFs into photoshop, this is where my problem starts.
If a PDF say 500mm wide X 2000mm high is rotated in Acrobat and re-saved so now 2000w X 500h. If I open this in Photoshop it shows me a preview as 2000wx500h BUT the size is reported as 500w X 2000h. If you then rip this PDF it will rip as 500mm wide X 125mm high (Wrong). The only way around this is to rotate this PDF back to 500w X 2000h then rip again and it will then rip as 500x2000.
Now if I get this PDF and rotate using OSXs Preview, it will work. I open the PDF that I rotated in Preview and photoshop will show and tell me that it is 2000Wx500H and it rips as 2000x500.
I have 7 other Macs with the same setup and they all do the same thing. I got a friend on a PC using XP and Acrobat 8.1.2 and it also did the same thing.
Using another PDF program on his PC made it work.
Now for some reason the Newer version of PosterShop 7.1 (wasn't a problem with Postershop 6.5) is doing strange things with PDFs rotated in Acrobat Pro V8.1.2. A PDF rotated in Acrobat to a Landscape will open as a Portrait. Leave the PDF as a Portrait and it will open as a Portrait. Now rotate the same file using Preview to a Landscape and Postershop will open it as a Landscape.
Its like something in the PDF is not being changed to say its rotated, so both Photoshop and postershop get it wrong. Now the problems in Postershop may not be related, but even Photoshop is seeing this and ripping it wrong.
Is there any thing I could try?
I have got the rest of the team using Preview atm to rotate files for now.
Thank you.

My biggest issue GKaiseril is that this is something developed at a higher level than my department. You can find the Fillable PDF and Excel conversion spreadsheet at : www.dodprocurementtoolbox.com. I am not apart of the development team, just apart of a property team trying to get our attachment right. This has been an ongoing issue we've tried to resolve for a while now. The solution I posted above makes the file work, but I don't know if its a "solution" or a temp fix. If I can figure out what the actual issue is, I can suggest an actual fix to the machine or process.

Problem with rotate function.

I got a problem with the rotate function. When I rotate an (text) object (point text but same behavior with area text) on the GUI of Illustrator, the resize bounds around (see screenshot) is rotated as well so that you can resize it as used to. If I rotate the same object by JavaScript, the resize bounds are NOT rotated along with. How can I get the same effect as with the GUI-way by JavaScript as thats the result I need? And where is my thinking error. Here is the code I used for the rotation:
var docRef = app.activeDocument;
var sRef = docRef.selection[0];
sRef.rotate(20, true, true, true, true, Transformation.TOPLEFT);

Hi Jens, I had the same problem, no matter what I tried, rotating via scripting keeps resetting the bounding box. I resolved it by recording an action to rotate the object, same results as if rotated manually. If you still need to rotate via scripting, VBS and AppleSript can execute Actions from script, JS can not.

Problem with rotate (Win 10)

For some reason, my Yoga 2 Pro refuses to get back into the 'normal' rotation (NOT upside-down or sideways). I've tried disabling ymg in services (no effect), I've tried with the ctrl-alt combo (all of them work perfectly, EXCEPT for the ctrl-alt-UP combo). - but nothing brings it back in the normal mode. Does somebody have an idea on how to fix this? Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just reporting back. It was a problem with a driver (HID Sensor Collection V2 that (for some reason) was no longer 'enabled'. I noticed it in the device manager, and as soon as I clicked it, the system also showed a 'Sdo Sensor V2' and from that moment onwards, the display switched to the normal mode (landscape, NOT flipped). So problem solved. I hope.
