How do you fix your iPod if it is stuck on the sideways position?
I was cleaning my house with it clipped to my shirt and now it is stuck on the sideways or flipped position, how do I get it to flip back?
take 2 fingers and "rotate" themwhile they are on the display and you will think you are so cool that you can reposition the way the screen looks (or even photos). It is like going from landscape to regular position.

How can you fix your iphone when it is stuck on the apple logo
My Friend has an iPhone 3G(S) and he wanted to put music on his iPhone. So he connected it to iTunes and said that the iPhone Had an iOS update. so he did the update and after the update, it got stop on the apple logo and it got an error and the iPhone is not responding and it is stuck on the Apple Logo.
Alright Hernan there are a couple of steps you could try.
Your first step has been mentioned twice, that is a "Hard reset". This can be done by holding both the Power/Lock Button (Top left hand corner of the device) and the Home Button (Circular button in the Bottom-Middle of the device) for about 3-5 seconds until the device shuts down, then attempt to start it up again.
If this fails, you may have to take a rather drastic measure and put the device into "Forced Recovery Mode". This will erase all your data on your iPhone (So I'd hope you won't have to do this unless you backed up recently) and reset it to an empty device.
To do this, head over to this article on the Apple Support Site and follow the instructions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
It does say for unable to restore or update, but look for the section where it says "Use the following steps to place your device into recovery mode."
Hope this helps you!

iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

How do you fix your iPod 5 to let you send iMessages to the iPhone 4?
Lately it has been saying "not delivered" to all messages sent to an iPhone 4. This started after the iOS 7.0.2 update. I have tried rebooting, I even reset my whole iPod and that doesn't work. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or have any ideas?
Where do I go from there? And do you think I will have to bring it in to get fixed? I'm also having another problem with my battery. I will charge it to 100% but about 10 minutes after it's at 20%. Then it goes up to 50% and back down again. Any ideas? Thank you so much for the help.

this happened when i was updating it from ios 5.0.1 to 5.1 i had to stop it before it was done updating and now all i get is a frozen screen.
- Try a reset:
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to computer and try to restore via iTunes.
- If screen remains on (white, has lines etc), let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the reset and restore as necessary. -
How do you fix your ipod touch when it has two icons meaning "plug into itunes"?
I need help! it has this as my screen -----> a charger, then arrow and then an itunes icon thingy. And its not even being recognized on itunes (via computer)! It wont go into the lock screen and everytime I turn it off and it has the logo, it just goes right back to the "plug into itunes" screen! Please help ASAP!! Also it would be much better if there was a was to reset it without downloading anything, such as Limera1n. I really dont mind if it has to be reset.
