IPad landscape mode in Interface Builder

I've scanned these forums and abroad and can find no way to develop in landscape for iPad in Interface Builder. iPhone has a little rotate arrow in the upper left corner but no such arrow exists for iPad. If this is not available for iPad can someone explain why? My particular app will run exclusively in widescreen or landscape mode.

Thank you. Yes it's there. I suppose this is a noobie question, but only noobie to iPad dev so that takes some sting out. I appreciate your help.

Hyperlinks do not open in iPad landscape mode

Hi,
We have our application in SharePoint 2010 and we have an issue wherein hyperlinks do not open in iPad when held in landscape mode. However, the links are opening when iPad is held in portrait mode.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you filed to open Hyperlinks in iPad landscape mode.
It seems to be a Brower issue.
I recoemmend to use the Width attribute to control the rendering contents, specifically for the pages with custom branding and Mobile view turned off.
You can refer to:

When building an iPad HTML5 app, why does the splash page not work correctly in landscape mode?

I have recently completed an HTML5 web app for the ipad and one of the most challenging things about the process was getting the splash screen to work.
I have now succesfully completed the job and the splash screen works, but only under the bizarre condition that the app is first launched in portrait mode. This seems pretty crazy as most people using the ipad for browsing do so in landscape mode.
Has anyone come across this problem and resolved it?
cheers

yes, bare in mind this is an HTML5 Web App and not a native app. so yes I have included code for both landscape and portrait modes.
I install the web app and open in portrait, it works. then close and open in landscape, it works.
if i install the app and open in landscape FIRST... then no splash screen ever works.
This isn't just my problem. I've read about in several forums over the past few days while investigating.
thanks

Is there a way to hide the bookmarks bar in iOS 8 on the iPad? It takes up a large part of the screen when in landscape mode

Since I upgraded to iOS8, my iPad screen permanently shows the bookmarks bar down the left. This means I can only use about ⅔ of the screen when in landscape mode. Is there something I am missing which allows me to hide/show the bookmarks bar? Thanks

TThank you so much! I felt it must be something straightforward.

IPhone Apps in Landscape Mode on iPad

With the new high resolution display, why won't the small iPhone apps rotate to landscape mode? This is incredibly annoying when I have my iPad docked and I need to run one of these apps. There's plenty of resolution to rotate the app to landscape!

Has Apple come up with a solution to remove the iPad sidebar in Mail while in landscape mode?

Hi, Everyone.
When I review open Mail, I need to review it in landscape mode, so I can use the ipad cover's keyboard to type my replies. I would like to be able to hide (or even shrink) the sidebar. Unlike the "relative" privacy of viewing your email at your desk, the ipad is meant to be a mobile device: I use it on the train, I take it to meetings, etc. It's annoying to have people looking over my shoulder or sitting next to me in a conference table able to glance over and, in effect, see the names of the last 11 people or entities that have emailed me - with the subjects. (I work in HR, handling a lot of staff and faculty compensation, discipline, ando other politically charged issues - so privacy is kind of a big deal) Yes, I could flip it to portrait mode and hide the sidebar, but that forces me to tilt my cover's bluetooth keyboard 90 degrees to the side and I am not yet proficient in typing sideways.
I've seen mutiple posts over the past year about this. I'm using IOS 8.1.3. Has Apple resolved this or offered a suitable accommodation?
Thank you for any replies.

TThe answer is simple. No Apple has not implemented a way to hide the preview pane of the mail app when you use the device in landscape mode. I use my iPad in landscape mode 95% of the time as well, so that I can use the larger keys on the virtual keyboard. You can hide the preview of what the emails say I Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Preview>None. If you do that, at least you will be hiding the beginning of the message so that nobody can read it. I realize that's not your solution, but it might help.
I also suggest that you leave feedback for Apple.

My ipad is stuck in landscape mode, can I disable accelerometer and manually rotate?

My iPad is just over 1 year old and has been treated well, but unfortunately it is now stuck in landscape mode. We went to the Genius Bar today and after testing it they said it is a problem with the accelerometer and not fixable, only replaceable. Unfortunately, we bought it in the UK and are just out of warranty, and are now in Australia (apparently if we bought it here we'd be covered for around 2 years under their consumer laws). This means we are now stuck with a fairly new but broken product, which is a shame because we are both still using our iPhone 3GS phones from about 5 years ago with no problems!
Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the accelerometer and manually switch between portrait and landscape?

I had the same problem with my iPad Air that was brand new. After about 30 minutes on the phone with Apple Support (who are always so nice)it still wasn't resolved. We had come to the point where the last solution would have been to revert it to factory settings or send it back. Luckily I had to download the latest version of iTunes, and scheduled a call back. I have a Smart Cover for my iPad and began to wonder if the magnet had somehow caused the gyroscope to jam (since it does snap on back directly where the gyroscope is located). While running the Gyroscope app I took the corner where it snaps and ran it along the edge where the power and volume rockers are, and wellah!!! The gyroscope immediately responded and was back to working perfectly. Won't be using my Smart Cover anymore though.

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.

Content disappears in landscape mode on ipad

Hi there,
I am having trouble with one of my pages disappearing in Safari on the iPad.
Here is the page:
http://www.sbceoportal.org/ets/app_files/trucking_ipad.html
In portrait mode it looks fine, but in landscape mode the only part that remains visible is the header. Anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks so much!!!!

I can't seem to open the link but can only suggest that the page was authored fora variable size (liquid) display and there has been an error/bug in its creation. I don't think that it is a problem with your iPad, more with the page.

Interface builder is unable to open documents of type iPad XIB

Hi,
I got a application from my teammate, and it is for both iphone and ipad devices (which it is developed under iPhone SDK 3.2).
I have iPhone SDK 3.1.3 installed in my mac book. When i tried to compile the application for iphone simulator i got the following error.
Interface builder is unable to open documents of type iPad XIB.
The above error is for interface builder created for ipad.
My Question is we can't compile the application on iPhone SDK 3.1.3 which the application developed under iPhone SDK 3.2?
Please shed some light of this?
thanks

Go to your project settings, and delete the line that says Interface Builder Plugin search path or something similar.
the exact line in project.pbxproj is: IBC_PLUGIN_SEARCH_PATHS = "${PROJECT_DIR}/**";

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.

IPad Mini 1st Gen Springboad Won't Go Into Landscape Mode

After updating to iOS 8.0.2, I noticed that my iPad Mini 1st Gen will not go into landscape mode anymore when in the Springboard. When I'm in an app it works, but as soon as I press home it goes straight back into portrait. I checked all the settings and everything seems to be ok including the options for the rotation lock/mute button. Even the rotation option in the control centre is off. I have no clue what's going on. Can someone shed some light?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it : 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.
Or there is an iOS update, version 8.1, which has just been released - one of the fixes listed for it, from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1758, is

How to Put iPad in Landscape Mode

I am an expert computer user, having written many software titles for OSx as well as PC and Linux and Unix. But I am finding the iPad exceedingly difficult to learn.
I can muddle through the basic things, but there is one thing I have not figured out how to do, and after searching the Internet and this forum, I still can't find out how to do it.
How do I put the iPad in landscape mode? I feel like such an idiot because I have tried to figure out how to put it in landscape mode for hours, and can't find the option anywhere. I can't believe I'm the only person who can't figure this out.
Thanks for the help!

I have the opposite problem: can't get OUT of landscape mode. The home screen is landscape, and so are all the other apps, no matter which way I press that view-lock button. The worst problem is in Pages, where I can't see the tool bar and thus edit the file. Do I download a new copy of Pages, or report this to Apple as a hardware issue? And what is Auto-Lock in the Settings? Turning it on/off did not resolve my problem.

IPad splash screen/launch behavior broken in landscape mode for AIR 3.6?

I just updated to Air 3.6 (under FB 4.6) and I'm now seeing an issue with my app launching in landscape mode when the home button is on the left.
This is on my iPad 2 (running iOS 6.0). However, it doesn't happen on my iPad3 (running iOS5.1).
Launching my app under Air 3.6 on my iPad2 with the home button on the left the following sequence happens :
- The splash screen will appear properly.
- As the splash screen is going away, the app will rotate upside down and remain upside down after finishing launching.
- I must rotate the iPad 180 degrees and then back again to get it to recognize the correct orientation.
I have some other apps that use the same project as a template and share the same launch code. An app that I have that was compiled under Air 3.4 does not exhibit this problem at all on the exact same iPad. The launch sequence works seemlessly.
I have some other apps that were compiled under Air 3.2 on the same iPad that exhibit the following behavior, which isn't as severe :
- The splash screen will appear properly.
- The splash screen for a brief moment flips upside down.
- The splash screen then rights itself and the app launches the right way up as it should.
So it appears that something has changed in the way the AIR 3.6 is handling splash screens and the launching of an app.
I'm not sure if this could be related to the issue that was posted here (although it was indicated for iPod/iPhone) :

Thanks Zero7Eleven!
Going into FB->Project Properties->ActionScript Compiler and adding -swf-version=19 to the "Additional compiler agruments" section seems to have fixed the issue for me.
It looks like this compiler agrument was mentioned in the release notes here, which I didn't find ealier :
