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.

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!

Problems with environments and transactional mode in the Python API

Hello everyone,
I have been having problems with the Python API, and I wonder if anyone can comment? I am using DB XML version 2.2.13, with python 2.3 (RedHat linux WS 4.0) and python 2.4 (SuSE 10.1) with identical results. I started with a simple example:
#!/usr/bin/python
"""XPath example from http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp
ported to DbXML
from bsddb3.db import *
from dbxml import *
books = """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<bookstore>
[xml data omitted for brevity]
</bookstore>"""
if __name__ == "__main__":
    conFlags = DB_CREATE | DB_NOMMAP
    myMgr = XmlManager()
    myMgr.setDefaultContainerFlags(conFlags)
    myMgr.setDefaultContainerType( XmlContainer.NodeContainer)
    uc = myMgr.createUpdateContext()
    container = myMgr.createContainer("books.dbxml")
    container.putDocument("books.xml", books, uc)So far, so good - this works, and creates a container books.dbxml that I can open and query. Next, I try to instantiate the XmlManager using an environment:
if __name__ == "__main__":
    envFlags = DB_CREATE | DB_PRIVATE
    conFlags = DB_CREATE | DB_EXCL | DB_NOMMAP
    myEnv = DBEnv()
    myEnv.open("/home/pkeller/dbxml_tests", envFlags, 0)
    myMgr = XmlManager(myEnv, DBXML_ADOPT_DBENV)
    myMgr.setDefaultContainerFlags(conFlags)
    myMgr.setDefaultContainerType( XmlContainer.NodeContainer)
    uc = myMgr.createUpdateContext()
    container = myMgr.createContainer("books.dbxml")
    container.putDocument("books.xml", books, uc)This fails with the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "w3school_xpath_c2.py", line 60, in ?
    container = myMgr.createContainer("books.dbxml")
File "/scratch_bernoulli/pkeller/dbxml/install/lib/python2.3/site-packages/dbxml.py", line 125, in createContainer
    def createContainer(*args): return dbxml.XmlManagercreateContainer(*args)
RuntimeError: Error: Invalid argument
Segmentation faultA bit odd - I can't find anything in the docs about the required arguments to XmlManager.createContainer being different if an environment has been used explicitly.
Anyway, I persevered (my aim being to use transactional mode in Python). Changing the environment and container flags like so:
    envFlags = DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_LOCK | DB_INIT_LOG | DB_INIT_MPOOL | DB_INIT_TXN | DB_PRIVATE
    conFlags = DB_CREATE | DB_EXCL | DBXML_TRANSACTIONAL | DB_NOMMAPThis change allowed the script to run, outputting the single classic line:
Segmentation fault(the C++ API docs at http://www.sleepycat.com/xmldocs/gsg_xml/cxx/transaction.html#initializetransaction are incorrect by the way - there is no flag DB_TRANSACTIONAL).
In spite of the segfault, the file "books.dbxml" was produced and could be queried by another application. A transaction log file "log.0000000001" was also written (10485760 bytes long).
Running this last example again with "python -v" showed that the segfault was being produced during the python's cleanup phase:
# clear __builtin__._
# clear sys.path
# clear sys.argv
# clear sys.ps1
# clear sys.ps2
# clear sys.exitfunc
# clear sys.exc_type
# clear sys.exc_value
# clear sys.exc_traceback
# clear sys.last_type
# clear sys.last_value
# clear sys.last_traceback
# clear sys.path_hooks
# clear sys.path_importer_cache
# clear sys.meta_path
# restore sys.stdin
# restore sys.stdout
# restore sys.stderr
# cleanup __main__
Segmentation faultCan anyone clarify what is going on? I had been hoping to deploy DB XML as an alternative to something more admin-heavy, but with this behaviour that would be hard to justify. A dirty exit from Python means that no-one will consider trusting their data to this engine (or am I doing something wrong?).
Regards,
Peter.

Peter,
Your first failure -- invalid argument -- was due to an invalid combination of
flags to DBEnv.open(). Along with DB_CREATE you need at least DB_INIT_MPOOL.
As you can see, it worked once you added more flags.
The second, cleanup problem (segmentation fault) is the result of out of order
destruction of objects. This is fixed in the next release (later this year), but
you can work around it by ensuring that your XmlContainer and XmlManager
objects are deleted/cleaned up before the DBEnv object.
Python will cleanup in reverse order of creation, unless you perform explicit
deletions, which is also fine (e.g. del container, del myMgr).
Explicit deletion is always safe.
Regards,
George

Problems with Facebook and theater mode

Sync problems with 3gs and itunes after update iOS 5.0

I am using a Vista PC with iTunes10.5. After updating my 3gs to iOS 5.0 I am not able to sync the phone. iTunes recognizes my iphone and then stays syncing at the backup stage....I deleted all my apps on the phone and deleted previous backups and tried syncing again, but in vain. I am clueless....

I just plugged it into my netbook and its Restoring it on there so thanks, I know I will lose what I never had backed up but just be happy if it works. Fingers crossed this fixes it.
Edit: It didnt work, come up with iTunes isnt connected to the internet then the restore fails

After i downloaded the iOS 7 i cannot play words with friends in landscape mode and its driving me silly :0/ im not the only one having this problem since the download.

SInce downloading iOS i have not been able to play words with friends in landscape mode, emailed zinga and they cannot find a reason why. Before download i always played in landscape mode. People i know are also finding the same problem, even family, it rotates on other apps etc but not this,it will turn upside down but still in portrait mode, i and others have paid for this game for ad free. Help. Please

This would be an app issue, not an issue with Apple. If you can flip it upside down, your accelerometer is working fine and can sense what position you are holding you iPad, however, the app isn't allowing it to rotate. Just give them time, and I'm sure they'll come out with an update for the app that will have it working again.

Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution?

Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution? (No jailbreak)
Most of the time the iphone cannot reach any network and when it can, there is no data transfer, I can only make calls and sms.

Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

Got problems with iOS7 and home sharing

Got problems with iOS7 and home sharing music. How do you home share music now. I don't have a airplay button either. It all work fine until I updated

I too am haing the same problem.
Oh i have an iphone 4 by the way - if this helps.
I have updated the itunes to 11 point something (latest as of 19th Sept '13) and still not joy.
My phone sees the network, then when i try to connect to it in the "Sharing" spot in music, it gives me the rotating icon and then i get "Unable to Home Share at this time".
I had this problem with the ios 6, which was log out of you apple account, and then turn off the phone -this was supposed to clear all the history and old connection details etc.
Then restart the phone and re-log into itunes account.
As i say - that worked last time, but this time, i have no idea what is going on.
I am looking at reverting back to the ios 6, and waiting for ios 7.1 which to be honest - wont be long away with the amount of issues people are having.

Problem with Preview and PSD files - random gray square

Hi guys, hope you can help...
I've got a problem with Preview and PSD files.
If I open in Preview both an original jpg straight from my reflex and the photoshop version of the same picture, the psd file presents a gray square (of what it seems unrendered image) in a random area of the photo (sometimes in the center.). The square is quite big...
If I zoom in or zoom out it disappears...if I scroll to another photo and then back to the psd, the square it's there again...sometimes in a different position.
I've tried the same psd on my older iMac with leopard...and got no problem at all.
I suspect it got something to do with my Ati...
(this is the second iMac 27...the first went back for gray banding on the lcd screen and flickering and yellow tinge........)
Thanks for your help.
DAve.

maybe I'm onto something...
I've just found out that opening Preview in 32bit mode (instead of default 64bit) works flawlessly with any psd files. If I switch back to 64bit mode, Preview is much faster but the gray square comes back...
It seems like the i7 is much faster than the Ati....
Any more realistic ideas?

Problem with Facetime and my MacBookPro camera

Hello,
I've got a MacBookPro and I have a problem with Facetime and my front camera.
When I have a discussion with an iMac or an other MacBook the image received by the other person becomes fix.
To unfix it I have to put my finger on my camera and then everything is good until the next time, 4 to 10 seconds later I've got the problem again.
Perhaps somebody can help me.
My head on my screen is always good even when the bug appear on my correspondent's screen.
For information, the 2 mac have the same iOS version (OSX Lion) and Facetime version.

Hi Dave,
Edit: Well, I guess I was lost when I posted this. My answer was regarding a problem with OS X, not iOS. I'm going to leave the answer here in case someone else with a Facetime for Mac issue can benefit, because when you're searching for "Facetime AND Login", you could land in any discussion area. -Jerry
Keychain Access.app is in your Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
The path will be: Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access.app.
Keychain is where all your passwords are stored for those applications that you don't want to have to manually log into all the time.
It's a handy app to become familiar with, for instance if you want to look up a password or user name from the past.

My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
. Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
Note:
When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).
