HT1947 Remote app in iOS7 won't display in landscape mode

Title says it all - since I updated to iOS7 (which I really like), the Remote app stays in portrait mode no matter how I turn the iPad. Is it me or is this something other folks have run into?

Same here, Remote is the only app not rotating. Have tried everything I could imagine might fix it to no avail. Considering that the app icon hasn't been "sevened" my guess is someone missed the briefing or Apple doesn't understand how important this app is to some of us. There are already a few other threads on this, haven't yet found a solution in them.

I updated to iOS 7 and now some of my apps won't display in landscape mode and they did before the update. Any ideas on how to fix it?

This could be from having restrictions enabled. Icons completely disappear when "restricted"

HT1947 Apple remote app under ios7 won't rotate

After the ios7 update my remote app doesn't work in landscape on my ipad 2. Anyone else experienced this?

Apps won't switch to landscape mode

Many of my apps won't switch to landscape mode (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Yelp). I know that landscape works on my phone because Photos, Messages, Calculator, etc. will switch to landscape mode. Also, I don't have the portrait lock on. The apps used to switch to landscape - what's up? Could it be because of the new update?

Then the next steps in user troubleshooting are restore from backup, and if necessary restore as new. I would also ask, have you checked to make sure that the Orientation Lock is not on? Check in the status bar to see if you see a small padlock with a circular arrow around it next to the battery status. If so, you turn this off from the Control Center. Swipe upwards from off the bottom of the screen, then Orientation Lock is on the top row all the way to the right. White is on, black is off. I have also read that there is a screen zoom setting, either in Display & Brightness or Wallpaper. I don't have an iPhone 6, so I cannot compare. Supposedly in the zoom setting, it can prevent some things from happening, and I believe landscape orientation was one of them.

TS3274 My Ipad display is stuck on portrait mode. I tried the toggle switch, turning off and restart and just now backed up into Itunes and restored and still is stuck on portrait mode and it won't flip to landscape mode. Is this a hardware problem?

Has lock rotation been accidentally enabled within the control centre? If you swipe up the screen is there a circle with a lock symbol & if so is is greyed out or white - if white it is enabled.

N8 won't go to landscape mode

Hey everybody,
I've had the N8 for a month now and I'm loving it. The main reason I got the phone was because of the picture and video quality and it's ability to become my all-in-one device.
I've ran into a problem now that I need help with. My phone won't rotate into landscape mode. This is a problem because now I can't type texts and messages in qwerty form and using the portrait keyboard is a pain in the butt. Has anybody else experienced this? Is it a hardware or software problem? I've already searched throughout the internet and have tried the following solutions but they didn't work:
Change the sensor settings on the phone and ensured the auto-rotate display was activated
Removed any apps that i downloaded since the problem occured
Restarted my phone several times to see if that worked
Did a soft reset on the phone and chose to delete and restore the phone to factory settings.
test out the accelerometer by downloading the level app (app did not run for some reason)
None of these solutions worked for me. I haven't done a hard reset because I've read that Ovi Maps will not show up on the phone. I have a feeling it's a problem with the phone's accelerometer. I am tempted to call Nokia support but I'd rather fix this problem at home if it's a simple solution.
Thanks

One final thing you can try is a factory reset of the phone.
If you dont already have it, download and install Nokia Ovi Suite
Connect phone to computer and do a backup of its contents through Tools -> Backup
Disconnect phone from computer
Choose Call -> dial *#7370#
Phone asks if you want to restore phone to factory settings, answer yes
Phone restarts.
Try the landscape mode again.
If it still doesnt work, seems the sensors dosnt work properly and phone needs service.

IPhone 5s won't switch to landscape mode

I have the iPhone 5s (32GB) and the software currently being used is up to date (IOS 7.1.1).
My problem is that my phone won't switch to landscape mode. When I take pictures, it won't turn over, and all other apps, even when I play games like Temple Run, it won't allow the character to move side to side.
I have checked to see if my phone's orientation lock is on, which it is not. I have done a hard reset which did not fix it. I also did a restore where I restored it completely and set it up as a new phone, and restored it and set it up with a backup. Nothing has helped it!!
I don't know what to do, and would much rather figure it out than go to the Apple Store and get it looked at. If you have any knowledge or anything that can potentially help resolve this issue, i'd be very much appreciated!!
Thanks

My iPhone 4S won't switch to landscape mode

Alas, this did not help me. I don't have an Orientation Button or any Icon that would help in this endeavor. At the bottom of my Iphone 4s, there are 3 icons: Phone, Mail and Safari. That's it. I can't get those icons to move.
What is it you're trying to do? If you're looking for orientation lock in iOS 7, swipe up from the bottom of your phone to access control center. Orientation lock is the top right icon.

HT1947 Remote Apps cannot display in landscape mode in iOS7

My ipad 4 cannot display the Remote App in landscape mode after upgraded to iOS7, also the response is very slow when choosing album, songs or Artist

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a soft-reset (is that what you mean by restarting ?) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1947 Remote app under iOS 7 does not rotate to landscape mode

I am using the remote app to control iTunes on my computer. I have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.2. The remote app only displays in portrait mode. If I rotate the iPad the app stays in portrait mode. Anyone know how to fix this.

Thanks so very much. That was exactly what I needed to know. May God Bless you for your helping heart.

REMOTE app on iPhone does not display Cover Art

I use the Apple REMOTE App on my iPhone to control my iTunes music library on a Mac. The REMOTE App controls the iTunes playback properly. However, the Cover Art for each song does not display on the "song" screen - showing the song currently playing. Across my iPhone screen (where the Cover Art should appear) are the words containing album of the song). The name of the song and album correctly appear at the top of the screen.
What is interesting is that when I hit the back arrow (left side top on song screen), all of the Cover Art appears in small thumbnails. The Cover Art also appears in other displays (for example, the currently-playing Album) using REMOTE on my iPhone. This means that the cover art is being transmitted to my iPhone - HOWEVER IT DOES NOT DISPLAY ON THE SONG SCREEN.
Can anyone kindly help me resolve this - because I would really like the Cover Art to display properly on the song screen. Thank you. Dale

Nezmo, This is really unbelievable. I have suffered from the issue I described for SEVERAL YEARS. Today, for some reason I decided to make this post on the Apple discussion board. And, today the issue was fixed by Apple. I just downloaded the update to the REMOTE app and the cover art now shows beautifully on my iPhone 6 plus. Thanks. Dale

Remote App cannot control Radio – Continuously displays loading message

Been having this problem for quite a while and no one on the internet seems to know how to fix it. Here are the exact steps:
1. Connect to Macbook Pro itunes from ipad 2 or iphone 4 using Remote App.
2. Connection is established and can control local library, volume, start, stop... etc..
3. Try to click on the "Radio" tab in the side bar... right panel displays "Loading..." messaging.
4. iTunes on Macbook Pro appears to refresh the listing of radio stations and they are displayed within itunes
5. iPad or iPhone remote app continues to display the "Loading..." graphic and never actually loads the radio station listing
Result:
Radio cannot be controlled remotely by the remote app.
Additional notes:
If you start a radio station from the iTunes app from the computer itself, you can then stop and start it from remote, but you can never control the listing/look for other radio stations, etc.
Is anyone else having this problem? Seems like a huge bug and I'm curious if anyone has found a solution.
Thanks,
Alex

Also having a similar problem. Maybe what I've tried will help, possibly not though as I'm still searching for a solution too.
Have Remote App on iPhone 4S to control Apple TV (ver3) which it does fine regarding playlists on iTunes (on Win PC), but doesn't regarding iTunes Radio. Curiously, Apple TV has an iTunes Radio app within it's menu, but it can only be controlled (apparently) with the Apple TV remote (not the iPhone Remote App), AND you'll need Apple TV connected to a TV monitor to see what's happening...you can't see it from the Remote App on the iPhone. I've digressed a bit, sorry. What I noticed on the Remote App is when you click on your iTunes library and then click on the "More" option (bottom right) it actually has a listing for Radio. If you click on Radio the genre list comes up then you can select a station. The problem is that the station never plays.
In another problem post someone suggested creating an iTunes Radio playlist within your iTunes library and then dragging individual radio stations to it, just like you would any other music. When I tried that, the Remote App can "see" this playlist through your library, but similar to the above, the station never plays once you select it. Note: The other post suggests that this allows the Remote App to play your radio stations, but I never got it to work.
So, like all above, I'm stuck as well. Very strange that the Remote App can "see" the Radio stations via my two methods above, but is not able to make them "play".

HT1947 Remote app requirements are stated as "software version 3.1.3 or later". I am running 4.2.1 and when I try to download it says 4.3 required. Where can I get the (old) version that runs on my IOS?

'Remote' app requirements are stated as "software version 3.1.3 or later". I am running 4.2.1 and when I try to download it says 4.3 required.
OK, I understand that new versions make use of facilities that come with new versions of IOS, but there is/was a version that runs on 3.1.3 and therefore, I assume 4.2.1. Where can I get the (old) version that runs on my IOS?
The app store seems to ignore all legacy equipment owners, and want me to spend loadsa money to get the latest shiny toy. It probably makes business sense, but I dislike companies that take that approach. This is my first venture into smart phones, and I like the IOS interface, but I'm not sure I can afford the maintenance.

This is standard for Apple. While there is little official mention of the software support lifespan for equipment, typical support has been about 4-5 years for computers. It strikes me that newer items, especially mobile devices, are not built as sturdily nor do they have the hardware upgrade capabilities required to keep up with newer systems. When we bought an iPhone 4S we were told by the person in the store we'd probably be looking at a newer model in two years. The iPhone 3G could be anywhere from 2 to 4 years old, putting it well into.
As for app availability, Apple typically pulls old software versions from its site when new versions appear. If it is a non-Apple app then I guess it is up to the vendor. It is indeed tiresome but it is not at all unusual. Since I only ever run used Macs, I download current versions even though my computer won't run them, stick them on a hard drive, then I have them when I upgrade to a newer used computer. If you run older equipment you have to learn a different mode of operation to exist with the Apple 'new and innovative' but 'forget about the old' philosophy.

Hp aio remote app on iPhone won't scan to my hp photosmart 7515

hp aio remote app "there was a problem during scanning. check scanner and try again" when using hp photosmart 7515 however this is a new issue the app scanning worked before. Also I can no longer print or scan unless at home and connected to my network

Hello @mbranch37,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are having a problem with the AIO app, as well as what sounds like a web services issue.
I would like to help.
Before working with the app, I would like to make sure the printer is fine.
On the front panel of your printer touch the Web Services icon. (also known as the ePrint button)
If you get a server connection error, I would set a manual DNS.
The following post by happytohelp01, has instructions for setting the manual DNS.
If for some reason the printers email or ePrint address has changed, you will have to set it up again.
If the email is the same and you do not get any error messages, try cycling your network.
Turn off the printer and other network devices.
Unplug the power to your router for at least a minute.
Plug the power cord back into the router.
Turn on all your network devices.
Wait until the blue wireless light on your printer stops blinking.

Remote app v2.3 Won't Connect

Updated my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 to iOS 5.1 yesterday. I also updated my ATV2 to the new v5 OS. Everything was great until I updated the Remote app to v2.3 on my iPhone and iPad. Now when I open the app it sees my ATV2 but when I click on it to connect I get the "Connecting to Apple TV..." screen with the spinning gear and it never connects.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the app on both devices, restarted both devices, restarted the ATV2 and rebooted my Time Capsule. None of that did anything. I uninstalled the apps on both devices, synced with iTunes and reinstalled Remote app v2.2 (old version of the app). The old app worked fine. Connected immediately and controlled the ATV2 without issue. I once again updated to v2.3 but only on my iPad and once again, it wouldn't connect.
Has anyone else experienced this? Found a fix?

I have been having this same exact problem. I just want to add that I also updated to iTunes 10.6 yesterday, and the Remote app problems occurred both before and after that update. It's clearly a bug in the new app, and I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
Worth noting: the app can still connect to my iTunes library with no problem, so if you're just looking to access stuff in your library to stream to Apple TV, you can do that; you just can't do anything else!
