Just got iphone, and safari stuck in Landscape mode

Hey Everyone,
Hope this isn't a newbie error, but everytime I start the Safari it flashes briefly in portrait mode, and then defaults to landscape. I've tried a hard reset, upgrade to 2.2.. and it still happens.
Thanks,
Dnouche

This has been reported a few times in the past.
Stuck accelerometers is the usual guess.
If gentle taps on the side where the bottom of the web page have no effect, then a trip to th apple store or back to where you purchased the phone may be needed.

  • Iphone 6 gets stuck in landscape mode

    Hello
    iphone 6 or possibly the ios update has some bugs.  For instance, it gets stuck in landscape mode even though the screen rotation is not locked.
    In addition, safari does not react quickly when trying to access the menu to close a page or add a new one.  It takes several attempts and after uing the home button several times, the menu finally appears.
    Please advise

    This is happening to me too.  Some posts indicates that it is more likely to happen in zoom mode and switching to standard mode fixes it, but my phone has always been in standard mode.  I am having this problem with an iPhone 6 128 GB phone with iOS 8.1.  I hope this is only a software problem and not a hardware problem.

  • IPhone 6 getting stuck in landscape mode

    My iPhone 6 keeps getting stuck in landscape mode. Also the camera will not always open from the locked screen, it just bounces up and down but does not slide all the way up to launch the camera app. Is apple working on a fix?

    Hi Sunnifromlondon,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone screen is not rotating as expected, there could be several potential causes. First, we can attempt some troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue.

  • Just got MBA and Safari cannot establish a secure connection

    MacBook Air 13" running Mavericks using Safari (all brand new).  The proxy server is eSoft on an Instagate 604.  The thing is that my MBP uses Mavericks and is behind the same Firewall and it works just fine.  When I'm not behind the firewall my MBA works fine as well. Is there something on the MBP that isn't on the MBA that I need to install?  I can't even get to Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox download sites to download a different browser.

    Contact eSoft, they may know a special setting.

  • IPod 3rd Gen 8 GB Says It's An iPhone And Is Stuck In Recovery Mode.

    So, here is my story. I have given my mother my old iPod touch, as stated it is a 3rd Gen 8 GB. Now when i updated the software it started to update as usual, reset the ipod. Blah blah blah. as it is finishing it says "Error Can Not Recover." Now, here is the main problem. When I plug it in to get it out of recovery mode, it thinks it's an iphone. Now this wouldn't be a problem if it would let me take it out of recovery, but since it thinks it is an iPhone the software is not compatible. So now I have an iPod that won't do anything and thinks it is an iPhone. Any suggestions..? (Note: My iTunes is fully updated.)

    No answers to my question..?

  • IPhone 4 stuck in landscape mode

    For the last couple of days my iPhone has been stuck in landscape mode.  No matter what I do it will not switch out of landscape.  I've tried shutting it off, closing apps and even restored my phone but whenever I go into an app it automatically switches to landscape.
    Anyone else have this problem????
    Thanks

    Double click the home button scroll over to the audio controlls there is a button on the left that looks like a reload button that locks the orientation

    I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten

    1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
    2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • HT1296 My husband and I each just got iPhones.  We also just got an iPad.  We've each created our individual Apple id's.  We don't want to share contact between our iPhones, but would like to combine contacts on the iPad.  I'm looking for suggestions.

    My husband and I each just got iPhone 4S.  We also purchased the New iPad. 
    We've set up individual iCloud and iTunes accounts. 
    We each have contacts that we don't want to share between our iPhones, but would like to share on the iPad.
    I'm seeking help as to how to sync these accounts properly to obtain this goal.

    If you intend to "share" the iPad, that's not gonna work if you both have separate Apple ID's & iTunes accounts. Like iPhone, iPad is not presently designed to be shared like a computer. Confirm if this is your intent.

    There is no 'earlier' version that supports XP. iCloud launched with Vista/7 support only.

  • IPhone safari stuck in landscape

    When I open safari on my iPhone 5, it automatically goes into landscape and won't switch to portrait. My orientation lock is off, I have tried shutting down my iPhone, resetting network settings, and nothing works. Any help?

    Hello ampifed1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Screen does not rotate
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3805
    If the issue persists, restart your iOS device by holding the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If the screen remains locked, back up and restore your device

    Display does not go into landscape mode
    Remember that photos, webpages, and applications will not change viewing-orientation modes when iPhone is lying flat. Hold iPhone vertically to switch between portrait and landscape modes or vice versa.
    Verify that rotation lock is not on.
    To test, open the Calculator application while holding the iPhone vertically (portrait mode). The standard calculator should appear. Then rotate the iPhone to a horizontal position (landscape mode), and the scientific calculator should appear.
    Note: Certain apps and features may support only one mode, landscape or portrait. For example, the Videos app plays video in landscape mode, and Reminders uses only portrait mode. Not all applications on iPhone use landscape mode.
