Air2 iPad rotate display lock?

AAll my other iPads had a switch near the volume buttons, the air2 does not. How do I stop the display rotation ?

You need to pull the Control Center up and tap the lock rotation icon.

    Did all these things mentioned in this article, even did a system reset including erase data and other settings. iOS is up to date, still the iPad 2 display is not rotating.
    This happened first a couple of weeks before, then I did a reset and it worked. Then after 2-3 days it happened again, I updated the iOS and it worked after that. Next time it happened, I tried all possible methods, including switching to software - rotation lock on/off. The hardware when turns to off/on, shows the correct icon on the screen of the lock and unlocked state. But the rotation is not happening.

    Just check again.
    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If the iPad screen still will not rotate - turn it over and gently tap it on the back a couple of times - but gently tap it. Make sure that the screen is protected.

  • IPad rotation lock in iOS 4.2, is it gone?

    The iPad rotation lock disappeared from its original location in favor of a mute button on the iPad when Apple released iOS 4.2 for the iPad on November 22, 2010.
    Apple has acknowledged the workaround in the knowledgebase:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    This has caused much consternation, and while the forums do offer user to user help, it generally can be frowned upon, when people rant about issues that no one on the forum has any direct control over. If you desire this feature to be returned to the current mute button, or an easier downgrade path, please submit feedback to:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    I'm an end user myself, and while I'm not happy about the change, all I can do is inform others how to work around it.
    Thank you.

    November 22nd, 2010, the rotation lock functionality shifted from the slider next to the volume control, to a similar function on the iPhone iOS 4.2, as the iPhone and iPad operating systems were brought together. Apple documents the change here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If people desire the iPad to have a single hardware switch for rotation of screen display with rotation of the iPad orientation again, there is this feedback page:

    No. Not without access to a computer running iTunes. You do want to use your own computer so that you can restore from your backup and sync your own content back from iTunes.

    Try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iPad screen is locked

    My iPad screen is locked and won't respond to any touch commands.  Password protect has not been enabled.  At the top of my screen a lock icon is displayed.  Can someone tell me what happened?

    A lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator means that you have rotation lock on i.e. the screen won't change if you turn the iPad (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085).
    If the iPad's screen isn't reacting to you touching it then try a reset and see if it works after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
