Ipad home screen won't automatically adjust to horizontal orientation

what is the solution when ipad home screen won't automatically adjust to horizontal orientation?

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button

  • After my software update, my iPod screen won't automatically turn off without manually locking... help!

    my iPod screen won't automatically turn off without manually locking... help!
    Does anyone know how to change the settings so it will turn off/dim/lock automatically without needing to press the white button at the top all day?  I'm draining batter and it's so annoying!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How to remove items from iPad home screen?

    How to remove items from iPad home screen?

    Press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'

  • CC app home screen won't load

    When I start the CC app on my PC (Windows 7, 64 bit), the home screen won't load.  The activity indicator just sits there and spins.  It worked before, but not for the last few days.  The other screens work just fine.  Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • My iPad video screen won't rotate orientation?

    iPad screen won't rotate when watching apple movies, still works for other apps etc???

    Close the videos app in the recents tray and reboot the iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iPad 2 screen won't "lock" or "turn off" after being left unused since ios7 update

    Hi, I hope this hasn't already been covered I have had a look and on other sites but haven't come across nothing.
    Since I have updated to ios7 my iPad 2 screen now doesn't lock when left unused, I can manually lock it by pushing the lock button but it won't do it by its self no more, my iPhone does so I'm assuming it's not a new thing that came with the update. It's not a huge issue, it's more annoying, my battery is forever low as it drains it when I forget to lock it myself. I have had a look through the settings and can't see how to change this, I'm not a very technical person though so I know I may have missed it somewhere or am just being very blonde,, thank you in advance for any light shed on this.

    Hello there, AllThingsShiney.
    You may just have to set the "auto-lock time". The following Link from the iPad User's Guide should help:
    Sleep/Wake button - iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad9940ef67
    Specifically:
    Set the auto-lock time. Go to Settings > General > Auto-Lock.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • On my iPad home screen, the mail app used to indicate the number of new emails I had with a number in a red circle.  This has vanished since I upgraded.  Does anyone know why, and how to restore this?

    On my IPad 2 home screen, the mail app used to indicate the number of new messages with a number in a red circle, next to the app.  This has vanished, I think about the same time as when I upgraded to the new OS.  Does anyone know why and how to restore this feature? 

    Thanks.  While you were replying to my question, I went into notifications and figured
    it out.  Appreciate the quick response!

  • What makes an iPad home screen "go big"? its like the screen has been pinched outwards

    What would make an iPad screen "go big"? My son keeps experiencing an issue where the home screen will enlarge and freeze. I am unable to replicate this on any of our other apple products (iPhones and another iPad). Is it possible that he is pushing or clicking something that I dont know about? If so, what would that be? Is there somewhere in the settings menu that I could keep this from happening for him? Any advice or answers help. Thank you.

    A quick double tap on the screen zoom in and makes the view bigger. But normally the screen doesn't freeze and it an be returned to normal with another double tap.

  • Websites I've loaded onto my home screen won't delete. I press the icons. Wobbles then freezes and homescreen uploads flash off and on (apps too but I can delete them from manage storage)

    Websites I've loaded onto my home screen using the + to home screen option won't delete. I press the icons. Wobbles then freezes and homescreen uploads flash off and on (apps too but I can delete them from manage storage)
    i need to reboot to stop it and I'm stuck with loads of homescreen icons on my iPad

    You're welcome. Glad to hear you got it sorted out. If you like using website icons you can bookmark them as Favorites and they'll be on your Safari page instead of your homescreen and they're much easier to get rid of. Also you could turn on Favorites bar by going to settings> Safari> show Favorites bar> on. See screenshot.

  • Why my Iphone 3GSA Home Screen always Zoom+ automatically?

    I had no idea where and when I had zoom the home screen, and now if i want to see the top one of time and bal life of battery, then I can't see the bottom line of the wording of icon at the lowest...
    I noticed if this situation happen, then my iphone will hang very easily.... Any One can help me to reset the home screen back to normal of 100%?  I think now my screen is at 105% or 110%.  I can't find anywhere that could have adjusted the screen..

    You are accidentally activating the zoom feature.  Double tap with 3 fingers to reset.  Read the User Guide to learn how to deactivate the zoom feature permanently.

  • IPads home screen locked magnified

    My iPad has been working fine for weeks and then about 20 minutes ago I opened it up to do some work and as soon as I typed in my pass code the entire screen became magnified. I am on the home screen right now and the icons are so large that only 4 of them (Youtube, Settings, Photos, and Contacts) can fit on the screen at one time. I have not installed anything today or done any activities out of the ordinary.
    I have tried a power button reset and no luck. Tried a Home button + power button reset and that also failed. Any suggestions?

    Or... +"If Zoom is on and you want to zoom out or in, double-tap using three fingers."+ From this Apple doc:
    _iPad: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)_
