Ipod touch stuck on portrait view - any ideas?

My iPod touch has started to refuse to switch to Portrait view.
It will use landscape when the App concerned is set in that view, but otherwise not.
I can't find where there is any help about this.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks,
SD

Double click Home button to bring up the multitaskbar. Swipe multitaskbar to the right till you see the music icon. Tap the left most icon with the circle arrow to lock/unlock orientation.

  • The battery life on my ipod touch 4g is really poor any ideas?

    in stanby mode after a full charge from 10 percent to 100 percent in the night drops to about 20-50 percent in the morning ( 9 hours). bluetooth is off, i close all apps, screen brightness is 50 percent ( not that this affects it in standby mode), the wifi is on. wifi should not use tthis amount of power. Also when im playing or surfing on my ipod the battery drops from 100 percent after full charge not surface charge to 50 perecnt within 30 mins or usage again everything above ^ is on or off. Any ideas cause i dont really want to change ipods as it has a 15 pound screen protector on it which i dont have the money to waste on buying another pack. Also if i did have change it would i be able to swap ot for a white one?

    - When sleeping the iPod can use wifi and if it has trouble connecting it will keep trying and drain the battery.  I leave mine in airplane mode when sleeping. Otherwise it is frequenlty drained like you see on yours.
    - The rapid drop whe playing vido seems to indicae that something is wrong.
    - If your iPod is defective and under warranty, Apple will give you a refurbished one of the same model.

    The user guide says:
    Movies viewed in Videos and YouTube appear only in landscape orientation. Street views in Maps
    also appear only in landscape orientation.
    Do you have the scree orientation lock turned on? If on there is a circular arrow icon with a padlock inside next to the battery charge icon in the upper right.

    Hi, it sounds like you are running into a known issue with a mobile app using the spark textinput (assuming its mobile as you are referring to piping and pushing views)

  • Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

    My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
    Please help with any ideas?

  • Ipod touch stuck in recovery mode and will not restore. error code 3194

    ipod touch stuck in recovery mode, will not restore and comes up with error code 3194, itunes is up to date, please help

    Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
    Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
    I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
    I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
    I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
    I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.

  • When i plug my headphones into my ipod touch 5 i cant hear any music i tried 2 different headphones what should i do

    when i plug my headphones into my IPOD touch 5 i cant hear any music i tried 2 different headphones what should i do

    Hey Ehlam Managua, You have tried a different set of headphones, still no joy-- OK. (1st step in trouble shooting completed). Just to be clear the sound still works through the speaker, correct? If so, try quickly plugging / unplugging the headphone jack about 12 times, there is a tiny switch inside the port that may be stuck closed. If so the plugging / unplugging should free it up. If still no joy, have you tried turning your iPod off then turn it back on? If that doesn't work go into Setting>General>Reset then tap Reset All Settings. If still no joy, connect with your computer, make a full set of backups from this iPod to your computer, then Restore to Backup. If still won't work, Restore to New. If still nothing, could be dealing with a hardware issue. Contact your Apple store and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated.

  • Police does not appear in the left corner iMovie11 viewer, any idea?

    Police does not appear in the left corner iMovie11 viewer, any idea?

    Hi Bengt,
    actually I just found what is the problem, if I choose the Halo effect in the Title navigator (sorry if the words are not exactly it, mine is in French so I translate) I do not have the "show the polices" in the upper left corner of the viewer, but if I choose another one like a lateral effect, it appears and I can modify the polices and colors of my title. Go figure?!
    I spent maybe 2 hours trying to understand that, well I think it is a glitch, but maybe just on the French version, I don't know.

    You may need to connect the iPod in Recovery Mode and then restore it via iTunes.  See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into Recovery Mode.;

  • HT4085 Did all of these options as instructed.  Screen still doesn't rotate and remains stuck in portrait view

    Did all of these options as instructed.  Screen still doesn't rotate and remains stuck in portrait view. Help?

    Not sure what you've already tried. Have you locked it using the Side Switch then accidentally changed the side switch to permit Muting/Unmuting?
    Settings > General > Use Side Switch to: Lock Rotation (make sure check box is here).
    Then try sliding the side switch. Also try turning off the device by holding the power and home buttons, then sliding the red slider to the right (then repower).
