IPad 2 now only displays in landscape mode.

My iPad 2 now only displays in one landscape mode. It won't change the screen when I rotate the iPad. Is this an iOS6 glitch?

The button right above the volume button (slide) can be for quickly silencing your iPad or for locking the screen quickly. You can choose whichever one you want through the settings, and you can also manually lock/unlock the screen in the settings.

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"

Hello, johnAC57.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
When experiencing issues restoring an iPad, here are the best articles to go through. If you received a specific error number when restoring, see the section labeled Get more help in the second article below.

If you have the latest version of iTunes you should not have to download the ipsw file separately as jalp suggests. iTunes will download it automatically.
This error (9) most often means that your antivirus or firewall (or router) is blocking access to Apple's servers. In rare instances it can also mean that the phone was hacked (or "jailbroken") to unlock it. If this is the case you must do a DFU restore, not Recovery Mode, as follows:
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall. If you has Kaspersky you may actually have to uninstall it, as it can never be turned completely off.
Connect the USB cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. DO NOT connect the other end to the phone
Disconnect all USB devices except for mouse, keyboard and iPhone cable.
Launch iTunes
On the phone hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button. The screen should be black. If it has an Apple logo this means you held both buttons too long. Release the HOME button and do it again.
While holding the HOME button connect the free end of the cable to the phone.
After a short while iTunes should recognize a phone in "recovery mode" (iTunes doesn't know the difference between DFU and Recovery modes, but the phone does)
Release the HOME button and don't touch the phone or the computer until the process completes or you get an error message. Ignore any displays on the phone.
If the error recurs the phone was probably messed up when it was hacked. This is not a hardware problem, or if it is, it isn't one you can fix.
You can try repeating these steps with a different computer and a different cable. If that fails also the phone is probably not repairable.

The video app on my iPad now only shows a black screen. Used to work fine then crashed in the middle of a short video.

The video app on my iPad now only shows a black screen. Used to work fine then crashed in the middle of a short video. When I open the app the screen is just blank. As it is a default app I can't delete and reinstall. Anybody else experience this?

Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app via the taskbar : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option if the two above don't work is 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.

My device only displays the Diagnostic Mode screen. Don't metter what I do. I've tryed to update itunes and reestore with latest software a few times, but it always comes back on the Diagnostic Mode screen. What's wrong?

Hi sayla,
When you reloaded your software did you do a clean reload (deleting all data)? http://bbry.lv/bpv7DT
If so, you might try doing a resettofactory using the following instructions. http://bit.ly/fMW9I4 This will reset to factory default.

Documents only print in landscape mode even when portrait is designated. How do I fix this?

Documents will only print in landscape mode when portrait is disignated

How about changing the printer and printing something, then close Firefox and then restart your operating system? See if that helps ....
I am curious why you need two separate versions of the same printer installed. Is one used on a USB connection and the other part of a network configuration or wireless? If both are network or wireless, are they using a different IP address on the network they are on?
The only time I have seen a similar problem with Firefox not wanting to default to the "last used" printer was with a USB inkjet and a network connected laserjet (Brother) - the laserjet would go to "sleep" (energy saving mode) and Firefox would switch to the inkjet every time the laserjet was asleep. That problem was eventually solved when the USB inkjet was replaced by a "network" connected inkjet - still can't understand why that made the difference, though.

My music videos now only play in verticle mode not landscape since ios7

I have an iphone 5 and since I downloaded ios7 I now can't watch any of my downloaded music videos in landscape mode. If I turn it then I get the album list of my entire Itunes library when in landscape. Any ideas?

Wow! Absolutely speechless. I spent an hour and a half on chat with two different reps on Friday! I understand they have other bugs but this is the first time
Apple has really ticked me off. If it isn't a functionality lost ios7, this was a basic feature. If
How do you screw up a basic function just so we can see all of the album covers. That's an important feature I could care less about the album covers. I was basiCally told by the rep at apple to just deal with it.
I love being told that $500 dollars worth of videos can play one at a time and that in portrait mode they are an inch tall.
Deal with it! Totally ticked off at the developers! Then don't load the option of the playlist in the new iOS!

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.

Different song displayed in landscape mode?

Since upgrading iphone 5 to iOS7 the current song is only displayed in portrait. When I turn the phone to landscape, a completely different song displays, though the current song keeps playing. I have to turn the phone back to operate any controls. Can't believe this is intentional? Is there a cure?
Thanks.

I hope everybody on all the related threads writes to Apple (http://www.apple.com/feedback/) to point out that it's downright *DANGEROUS* that the only way to skip songs while driving is to reach over and dismount our iPhones so we can turn them to profile view—instead of just a quick tap of the >> button in landscape mode.
Didn't they get the memo that distracted driving kills people?

HT3382 With a MacbookAir (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port, can you configure the external monitor to FULLY display in portrait mode yet keep the built-in display in landscape mode?

With an 11"-inch Macbook Air (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port:
Can you configure an extended desktop with an external monitor (20") displaying full portrait mode (1200 x 1600 resolution) and keep the built-in display in landscape?
I'd like to see something like
External monitor / Built-in display

Yes, I can't see why not.
Just give it a try and report back if you have a problem.

Rotate the display to landscape mode

I was designing a simple application and i want to show a table. I did that successfully. But i would like to have a landscape view so that it looks better. Either the table in landscape view or the whole application in landscape mode
i searched a lot and got j2mepolish to be a solution. But i tried to download the latest version several times but it stops in the middle.it would be a great help if you send me an mirror link.
Please suggest any method to do the above.

Hi,
You can try Graphics.drawRegion() mehod with Sprite.TRANS_ROT90 which will draw everything on the canvas in landscape mode.
- Create once bufferImage-> Draw everything one the bufferImage->draw that bufferImage on the canvas using Graphics.drawRegion() method.
ex:
Image bufferImage = Image.createImage(getWidth(),getHeight());
Graphics temp_g sm_landscapeBuffer = bufferImage .getGraphics();
// Now draw everything using temp_g and at the end draw that image using drawRegion() and main main graphics g.
g.drawRegion(sm_bufferImage, 0, 0, sm_bufferImage.getWidth(), sm_bufferImage.getHeight(), Sprite.TRANS_ROT90, 0, 0, Graphics.LEFT | Graphics.TOP);

Notification center on white iPhone 4s only present in "landscape" mode.

Hello,
After purchasing a new white iPhone 4s, the notification center and tab, is not present or able to be swiped down when holding the telephone in portrait mode.
However when I rotate to landscape mode, the tab appears and I can acces the notification center. Has anyone found a fix for this? I have tried resetting, rebooting, and restoring the iphone.
Thanks

IOS7 iPad view is loaded in landscape mode instead of portrait mode

On iOS7, i have a viewController added as a subview to the root view controller like so:
[self.view insertSubview:self.tutorialViewController.view aboveSubview:self.accessoriesView];
What happens is in viewDidLoad and in viewDidAppear, it loads with landscape mode dimensions, instead of portrait.
This also happens on iOS6 and bellow, but somehow it gets resized so this is not an issue. It seems that self.view.frame is not always reliable: http://bynomial.com/blog/?p=85
What could be the cause of this and how can i fix it?

Really what? Read through this... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085?locale=it_IT

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.
