HT4061 IPad screen rotation

MY  iPad screen does not rotate. It is stuck in the vertical position constantly. When I go into my fb   I don't have chat

1. Make sure the Side Switch is set to Lock Rotation

    How do I fix my iPad screen rotation since the iOS 7 upgrade?
    Since the upgrade, my screen orientation does not change based on the iPad's current position. It is often upside-down?
    Anyone else have a similar issue? If no, how did you fix it?
    Thanks, Jennifer

    My iPad screen rotation has been stopped.how to resolve.

    In addition to the previous answer, if Settings > General > Use Side Switch To is set to mute notifications, then rotation lock will be set via the taskbar (double-click the home button, slide the taskbar to the right, and it's the icon far left).

  • HT4061 iPad screen is frozen due to a pop up from I cloud which is not getting erased...any suggestions ?

    iPad screen is frozen due to a pop up message

    I'm guessing this pop-up is saying that you have not backed up your iPad recently...reset your device as detailed below to gain accessibility to your iPad again.
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • Why doesn't my iPad screen rotate all of a sudden

    I have been using my IPad 2 for a few months now and as of yesterday it won't rotate ...what gives...and for a day or so it wouldn't send emails as a reply...didn't go into drafts either...just disappeared...weird or something I am doing ?  could it be a virus or something horrid like that ?

    It's not a virus.
    In terms of rotation, is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If so, 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, 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 reset : 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.

    In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
    Yes, you can. You can configure the Side Switch (above the volume button) either as Mute switch or Rotation lock.
    Settings > General > Use Side Switch to: choose what you like the Side Switch to function as.

  • IOS 8.1.2 Ipad mini 2 Laging and slower screen rotation

    I have just updated my brand new iPad mini 2 with IOS 8.1.2 and the screen rotation became slower ,at the lock screen it became more  obvious it takes 1-5 seconds to rotate and the "slide to unlock" slider animation is freezing and lagging ,at the application screen takes 1-3 seconds ,the problem goes when I restart the device ,How Can I solve this problem .

    Hi there farahatology,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re running into general performance issues with your iPad mini. One thing you may want to try, to rule out software issues, is restoring your iPad to factory settings as shown in the article linked below.

  • Ipad mini did update and now screen rotation is locked.. can this be fixed ?

    I did and update for ipad mini and now the screen rotation is locked. I am seeing other posts about this update and am afraid this will be step one in more issues. Afraid to do the upgrade on my mac. Last time I had to take it in to the genius bar to have them fix it. Whaat? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks/

    See the following for info on the Side Switch settings that can either control Orientation Lock (screen rotation) or Audio Mute.

  • IPad screen won't rotate

    I have an iPad 2, out of warranty, that won't rotate (one of 150 iPads that are nearing the end of their usage cycle and will be sold at the end of the school year). It is stuck in landscape mode and won't rotate to portrait mode. In an attempt to fix it, I've tried everything short of opening it up: I've done a hard reset, I've done a system restore, and I even ran the battery clear down until nothing would come on the screen when the power button was pushed. Nothing has made any difference. (And no, the screen rotation is not locked, and no, the side switch is set to Mute, not Lock Rotation.)
    It makes me think the internal gyroscope is not functioning. Now here's where it gets interesting. I have downloaded the free Gyroscope app, on this and several other iPads for comparison. I can report two significant findings on the iPad that won't rotate properly: (1) All 3 axes of rotation on the gyroscope respond properly; and (2) the numbers on the defective iPad do not agree with the numbers on the other iPads. I.e., sitting side-by-side on a flat, level desk top, a "good" iPad reports Yaw: -173 degrees, Pitch: 0 degrees, and Roll: -1 degrees; while the defective iPad reports Yaw: 3 degrees, Pitch: 16 degrees, and Roll: -32 degrees. That leads me to believe that the gyroscope (or accelerometer) needs to be calibrated. However, I'm not aware of any facility for doing that. And furthermore, it's not clear that this has any bearing on the fact that it won't rotate.
    So... any ideas or suggestions? I am not averse to opening the device up, if there is a replaceable part. I haven't been able to find any info about such a task. My only other options are, as far as I know: Send it to Apple for replacement at $249, or sell it at a discount since it is not fully functional. Thanks in advance for any useful ideas. - JR

    Then you are not the usual user.
    If you can disassemble the iPad 2 then you may be able to replace the small custom circuit board containing the gyroscope and accelerometer chips (if you can source the part).

  • TS3274 My iPad screen won't rotate.. I have unlocked  at the volume button and on the multi task bar

    Why has my iPad screen stopped rotating?  I have tried by using the mute button to unlock.  It says it is unlocked. But it won't rotate.

  • My iPad screen no longer rotates.

    My iPad screen no longer rotates. When I toggle the switch on the upper right, it just indicates a ringer either on or off. When I check in settings, it shoes the screen rotation as 'muted'.  No luck turning it on or off either. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Try double pressing the home button, then swiping to the right until you see the ipod controls. There should be an orientation button at the far left.

  • What do I do if my iPad screen won't rotate?

  • HT5858 my ipad screen won't rotate.  It is locked in the vertical position

    Ipad screen is locked in position.  Won't rotate.

    first go to settings>general, and look at the use of the side switch (if its for lock rotation just use the switch on the right side on top of the volume buttons- if not just go to the home screen slide your finger from bottom to top and you'll open a bar, and look at the lock with an arrow, if its high lighted turn it off.)
