HT4528 I can't turn my 4s phone sideways to text.  only hold it upright.  How do I correct this

I cant' turn my phone sideways to text.  How do I change that.
Also, when updating information - I have multiple times received emails to verify my acct.  I don't because it asks for credit card information.  Should I be updating it? 

IOS7: Screen Orientation (Rotate)
Swipe UP from the bottom edge of the screen to see the Control Center, tap the top left icon next to the Crescent to lock/unlock screen orientation.
If you have IOS 5 or 6:
Screen Orientation (Rotate)
Double tap Home button, swipe the multitask-bar that appears to the right till you see the music icon. Tap the left-most icon to lock/unlock orientation.

    Hi shelly92555,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on your current situation. If you are saying that you are unable to unlock the original iPhone due to a passcode issue, you may find the following article helpful:

  • My iphone is locked by a pop up that says enter voicemail password, I can't turn off my phone, answer calls, text messages, or even unlock my phone! I cannot cancel out of it. I never set a voice mail password in the first place anyway.

    How can I get back into my phone if I cannot turn it off or unlock it?

    Hold the lock and home buttons untill you see the apple logo. This is called a hard reset and is the equivilant of pulling the battery out and putting it back in.
    Also if you have never set a voicemail pin the phone is asking you to set one.

  • HT1349 What if you can't turn on your phone and computer won't read it. How do you get support

    How can I get support if my iphone won't come on or connect to computer. It went off while talking on it. It has a charge and has been running good.

    Hold down the home and power buttons at the same time. It may take 20 seconds or so. This should force it to reboot. If it doesn't, make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • When creating a multi page document, some of my thumbnails become linked and can't be separated for editing. What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this?

    When creating a multi page document, some of my thumbnails become linked and therefore impossible to rearrange. What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this?

    The pages in sections stick together because the text flows between the pages.
    Insert a section break to isolate pages between sections.
    Now this all works in Pages '09, unfortunately Pages 5 doesn't let you.

    can anyone help

    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until your phone turns off. You can either release at that point or keep pressing until you see the Apple logo...that's an iPhone reset.

  • How can I turn off the phone saying "Call from" #/name when getting incoming call.

    How can I turn off the phone saying "Call from" #/name when getting incoming call before the ring tone starts?  I have a LG accolade

    I recommend checking your  prompts and alerts to turn this feature off. This may be you "Call Connect" or "Readout" alerts. Listed below are steps to update this feature. 
    With the flip open, press the Voice Command Key (on the left side of the phone).The Voice Commands feature has several settings which allow you to customize how you want to use it. Access Voice Commands, then press the Right Soft Key[Settings]. Your choices are below:
    -Confirm Choices--- Automatic/Always Confirm/ Never Confirm
    -Sensitivity--- Control the sensitivity as More Sensitive/ Automatic/Less Sensitive
    -Adapt Voice ---If the phone often asks you to repeat voice command,train the phone to recognize your voice patterns.Train Words/ Train Digits
    Prompts ---Mode/ Audio Playback/Timeout
    * For Mode, set Prompts/ Readout+ Alerts/ Readout/ Tones Only.
    * For Audio Playback, set Speakerphone or Earpiece.
    * For Timeout, set 5 seconds or 10seconds.

  • Can I turn off cellular data but still text?

    I just got billed for a $113 phone bill, all because of data. I don't travel, so it isn't roaming. Can I turn off cellular data but still text? I have free texting (plan) so I want to be able to text without wifi, but whenever I go onto games or anything without wifi, it says "turn on cellular data" or something similar, with two options (Okay, and Settings) I tap okay and exit the game, but it still charges me and it turns cellular on for the game. I don't want to continue getting charged for cellular games and such, but I still want texting. Is there anyway to get that?

    Next time click Settings. Clicking OK is telling the message that you want to "turn on Cellular Data".
    And again, did you look in Settings>Cellular under the "Use Cellular Data" section to see if your games show up in that list?
