Have a lock with a circle around it couldn't find it in the book
A lock with a circle around it appeared in the right hand corner?
That means that rotation is locked. The screen will not reorient when you turn your iPad.

So at the top of my screen like where the time is... there is this symbol that looks like a lock with a circle around it. It is next to the battery icon. What does this mean?
It's the screen orientation lock. It prevents the screen from switching between portrait and landscape views when you turn the iPod.
To engage or disengage this feature, double click the home button. This will bring up the multitasking tray. Swipe all the way to the left until you see the iPod controls, then tap the gray icon with the lock on it. This will toggle the feature on and off. -
I have a symbol on the top right hand corner and don't know what it is!! It's a little lock with a circle around it?? Help please???
It's Orientation Lock, which will kee the screen from rotating when you rotate the device.
It's accessible from Command Center- swipe up from the bottom of the screen. You should see the icon to turn Orientation Lock on or off. -

It's the screen rotation lock symbol.
When your screen is locked, photos won't rotate when you turn you iPhone sideways (or visa versa)
It's for better viewing or a wider picture view.
You can change it with the same icon in the slider menu from the bottom of your screen (upper right side).
It toggles on or off. -
Does anyone know what the little lock with a circle around it for on my phone?
Orientation lock, keeps the screen from rotating. You can turn it on and off by swiping up from any screen.
Actually, not entirely correct. It's the Portrait Orientation lock. It won't lock landscape orientation, as can the iPad Orientation Lock -

It means that your screen rotation is locked. Open up the control center by sliding your finger up from the very bottom of the screen, and click on the screen rotation lock symbol, which is the same symbol you see on the status bar.

Enabling Rotation Lock if "Use Side Switch" is set to Mute

A padlock will appear in the Screen Rotation Lock button. -
I did send a lock command to my iPhone several months ago - but it didnt work because I did not have iCloud enabled. But I am seeing a "padlock" with a circle around it at the top of my display over to the right side next to my % battery.
Do you have the portrait orientation lock enabled? This sounds like the icon for that. Download the new iPhone User Guide for iOS 7 from the iBooks store (Free) and it shows all the icons that appear in the status bar.

ipad - double tap the home button (the round button with the white square) then drag your finger across the button across the bottom of the screen (left to right) when the quick access bar opens. then u will see a icon on the left hand side that looks like that icon next to the battery. tap on that and it will disable the rotation lock. if it dose not open try the switch on the side of the ipad that is a rotation lock switch in ios 3.x and in ios 4.3 it has the option to be a rotation lock switch.

i have an iphone that is using battery life much more quickly than in the past, a full charge is going to zero in a half a day or so, with out much use.
an icon is also appearing next to the charge percentage in the top right, and the icon is a circle around a lock
can anyone tell me what the problem is, and what the icon means?The Icon meas your display orientation is locked to vertical so it wont change when you turn the phone sideways.
First thing you should check with the battery life is multitasking, which also happens to be where the orientation lock can be turned off. check out http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4211 and go from there -
HT4623 what does a lock with a circle around it mean?
