Landscape mode whether I like it or not

Whenever I start Safari and am holding the phone upright(not sideways) Safari starts for a second in portrait mode and then automatically flips to landscape even though I haven't turned the phone.
Also when I enter the music player it briefly(1 sec) shows the artist list then automatically flips to album view as if I had turned the phone.
In either case nothing I do can get it to go back to the mode it should be in when the phone is held upright.
Anything I can do to fix this?
EDIT: Just checked calculator and it does the same thing. Briefly shows portrait and then flips automatically to landscape.

Hi Marcel1no,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 
I understand that it can be frustrating when an application downloaded from the App Store is not behaving as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend using the attached article for information on troubleshooting apps downloaded from the App Store.

  • How to shackle Dreamweaver and Flash together, whether they like it or not.

    Okey dokey, here we go.
    Flash template (yeah, I know, never again)
    Created some html pages in DW.
    Made text links out from Flash to the html
    Want to go BACK from html pages to Flash, w/o reloading the
    whole dang Flash.
    videoimagination.com
    Try the "Families" button at the top right.
    Click any of the links.
    Try and go back.
    No good!
    However, that "Families" button? That's got some code
    attached to it.
    I can create a swf of just the button, and insert it in the
    html page, but can the code "go with it"?
    Here's the code from the button:
    on (rollOver) {
    if (_root.link<>3) {
    this.gotoAndPlay("s1");
    on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
    if (_root.link<>3) {
    this.gotoAndPlay("s1");
    on (release) {
    if (_root.link<>3) {
    _root.menu["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2");
    _root.link = 3;
    _root.gates.gotoAndPlay("s1");
    Any hope here?
    So pretty much, I want to create a link on the html page that
    will "return" to a previous piece of the Flash.
    This should be easier! Of course, I should be smarter, but
    that's a moot point.
    Regards, and tia..

    Hi,
    Flash has to re-load everything again it just can't do what
    you're saying with some code (at least there's no method I know
    of). What you can do though is make the button in flash open a new
    window; therefore the user will not close the window where s/he is.
    you can do this by setting the window to _blank in the getURL
    thing.
    Otherwise you can work around your problem by separating
    every page in Flash into a different page in HTML (eg: if you have
    an about us and a contact us page in flash, you make a flash file
    for about us and another one for contact us). I would find the
    second option a bit complex in my opinion if you haven't planned it
    beforehand.

  • 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.
    I recommend going through all of the steps in this support site article:

  • My iPhone no longer switches to landscape mode

    my iPhone no longer switches to landscape mode, any suggestions

    Make sure it's not in Portrait mode. Double-click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar, go to the left, the leftmost icon should be an empty square. Click it to turn on or off Portrait mode.

  • IPhone 6 will not switch to landscape mode for pictures,videos or tv

    My iPhone 6 stopped switching to landscape mode for movies,pictures,tv or vedio.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    TThe first thing to do is check, as Dilbert41 mentioned, whether the Rotation Lock is on. if you see the circular arrow around a small padlock at the top right of your screen turn it off using the Control Center. If the Roation Lock is off try a reset of your iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • Safari not opening in landscape mode when opening links from mail

    Hello,
    Since the update to iOS8 I experience following: when using my iphone in landscape mode, opening links from the default mail app doesn't open Safari in landscape mode. I have to manually tilt the phone to portrait mode and back to get landscape mode.
    When opening Safari manually in landscape mode, it works fine.
    Anybody else experiencing this issue?

    Hey there streatuac,
    It sounds like the Safari app is not automatically switching to landscape when you open a link from the mail app on your phone. I would start by closing all the running apps on your phone first:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • My screen stays in landscape mode watching Netflix and won't switch to portrait like all other video sites (Amazon Prime) does. Any way to fix?

    My screen stays in Landscape mode watching Netflix and won't switch to Portrait like other video sites like Amazon Prime does.  It is not locked so I don't know why this happening.  Any help is appreciated.

    I can't swear to this because I do not have the Netflix app, but I believe that the most recent upgrade to the app requires you to watch the movies in landscape mode now and it cannot be changed.

  • Survey: Do you like 1 or 2 columns for landscape mode?

    Hi,
    I wodnering if I should use 1 or 2 columns for landscape mode. One column may seem easier to read? But, two columns look more like a book.
    What do you use? What do you thin is best? Any downsides to using one over the other?
    Many thanks,
    Elaine

    Too generic...
    You need to be more descriptive with these questions:) Not every type of book uses the same type of layout.

  • CRVS2010 Beta 2 - report does not print in Landscape mode correctly

    I am using Crystal Reports Beta 2 for Visual Studio 2010 on Windows XP. I am trying to print a report in landscape mode. The WPF Crystal Report Viewer displays the report correctly in landscape view. When I print it, it moves all the data to the center of the page, prints it in smaller font and to the left and cuts off a lot of the data on the right hand side.
    I have tried various different suggested solutions from reading other forums and nothing seems to work. Is this a known Crystal Report Viewer issue?
    Solutions I have already tried:
    1. Page setup under Crystal Reports - selected no printer (optimize for screen display)
    2. Page setup under Crystal Reports - checked dissociate formatting page size and printer paper size
    3. Setting paper orientation and page orientation at run-time to landscape.
    4. Printing to different printers
    Something to note, I can export this report as a .pdf file and it prints perfectly from adobe. This only seems to be an issue when printing directly from the WPF Crystal Report Viewer to the printer.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have been stuck on this issue for a while...
    Thanks!

    Hi Sharon,
    There have been issues with printing and printers in CR 2008 and the same routines are in CR 2010. The patches we have done to help with standard paper sizes in CR 2008 are not in the Beta releases.
    Not sure if they will make it into the GA release next month. As a work around I suggest you continue exporting to PDF and then printing the PDF file until they have been resolved and patches are available.
    Thank you
    Don

  • Landscape mode not attainable

    From FILE -> Page Setup -> I select "Landscape," but the view remains in Portrait mode and I am not able to work in Landscape mode. I found one solution here that says I have to set the width and height for Landscape... any ideas as to WHY landscape isn't working?

    Hi Yvan - I am using the latest Appleworks for OS X, 6.2.9. Also, the post you referenced is the one I had already read telling the reader to manually set the width and height for landscape mode. I'm wondering why I can't simply choose "Landscape" and have the view in Appleworks change to Landscape? Landscpe is a standard feature in all page setups for all applications! Seems to me it should work without having to manually set it to a pre-determined width and height. Any suggestions?

  • Why will iphone not play video in landscape mode anymore

    I am a HUGE purchaser and user of iTunes Music Videos and on my iPhone, I was happily playing them in playlists and watching them in landscape orientation as a video playlist.
    I was quite upset when I bought my first iPad and found that it simply would not support this basic (for me) functionality.   But I searched and found a music video playlist app and purchased what SHOULD HAVE BEEN included functionality on the iPad.   Seriously, if the iPhone could do this basic operation why shouldn't the iPad, which is much better suited for video playlists with the bigger screen?
    Now, after updating to iOS7, you've broken the functionality even moreso.   Imagine my joy, surprise and sheer level of cursing and swearing when I turned my videos into landscape mode and found some dickbag has decided I should see album covers instead of my video in full screen on the phone.
    So, Apple, the "We sell devices so that we can also sell the media" company,   why are you screwing with something that should be basic and intuitive on the phone and ipad?
    I, and I expect everyone else, expect to open the music app, go to the music videos playlist automatically generated in that app (BY your programmers) and then be able to play the videos from the video playlists you allow me to create - my own playlists in both portrait and landscape modes.
    So please fix this ever-increasing pain in the ***.    I will not be purchasing any more videos (And yes, check my history, I am quite likely in the top 5% of purchasers of music videos) because you are slowly removing the intuitive methods for playing them.
    David Patrie

    A revolutionary A7 processor with 64-bit architecture, and none of those bits are smart enough to figure out "hey, maybe if my owner is listening to a video in the Music app and switches to landscape mode they're more interested in seeing the video larger, not unrelated album art thumbnails. Let me temporarily borrow the landscape view logic from the Video app."?
    I hope they fix this at least by iOS 8. It's not logical (let alone user friendly) to exit out of the Music app and go into a separate Video app just to see a music video in landscape. The ironic thing is the Video app forces videos to be landscape – as if the logic it follows is that anyone watching a video really wants to see it in landscape – but yet that logic gets kicked off the boat when the video digits cross the river over to Music app land.
