My 4s appears to be locked in portrait mode...how do I get landscape again?

My 4s suddenly stopped selecting landscape mode when turned. Is this a software or hardware issue. There is a strange icon that has appeared on the upper status bar which shows a lock surrounded by a circle with an arrow. Is this a lock on the orientation feature? If so, how do I restore the phone to normal operation?

Double tap the home button and slide it to right then you can see a button to unlock potrait orientation.

If you're running Mountain Lion (10.8.3), reminders is now a separate app. Launch reminders from your applications group and you will be able to access File>New Reminder.

You can install MAMPon you mac (free web server, no configuration needed).
Put ePub file in Applications/MAMP/htdocs and you can download locally (quicker than Dropbox, Mega, etc...)
On your iPad's nevigator type:
http://mac_local-lan_IP:8888/NameOfYourBook.epub
You can see local IP on: System Preferences/Lan or System Preferences/Sharing
iPad and Mac must be in the same lan/wifi network.
Best regards.

After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps. Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
Please follow this steps:
1) Double tap the home button
2) Hold down on an icon
3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
5) Tap Settings
6) Tap General
7) Tap Reset
8) Tap Network Settings
Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again.
Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7.
Otherwise I'm having a little success with this. Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all). So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process.

Where has it appeared?
You can forcibly remove it via the terminal..this will bypass flags/permissions preventing you from deleting it.
sudo rm -rf /path/to/file/C1EC7FOO
Note that the path to file needs to be the actual path. What you do is type sudo rm -rf , then just drag the file right into terminal and the path will be entered. Make sure there is a space between "-rf" and the "path." Make sure you copy the exact command and path to file. Make sure NOT to hit Return before you drag the file into terminal if you choose the latter method. This is a dangerous command if used improperly. Very effective, though, in cases such as yours.
Once entered, hit return. Enter your password. Type "exit." Close Terminal.

HT5826 I have PDF's on my phone but they done appear on my Mac book Pro. How do I get them on the Mac book?

How do I get them on from my phone?????

Connect your iPod to your computer and a dialogue box should come up asking if you want to transfer your purchases. If a box doesn't come up, click the iPod in the iTunes sidebar and there should be a button somewhere on the summary page to transfer purchases.
If you're in the US, you can also redownload your music buy logging into the iTunes store in iTunes, and clicking "purchased" on the right hand side of the store.

In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-C, or select
Go ▹ Computer
from the menu bar. A window will open showing all mounted volumes. Select the one in question and open the Info window. What is shown as the Format in the General section? If it's not "Mac OS Extended," Time Machine can't back up the volume.

Try the suggested idea above. I just disabled all the add-ons which were not compatible with FF 5 and did a FF restart. That fixed the problem. I then enabled each one, one at a time, with a FF restart until the problem came back. I then disabled that add-on.

Non-TouchPad games locked into portrait mode

Since the recent app market update newly installed non-TouchPad games display in portrait mode only, even though they are landscape games. e.g. Angry Birds Seasons I've reproduced this with two TouchPads The first instance was installing the games for the first time after the market update--Angry Birds Seasons, Dead Runner, and Glow Hockey all had problem even though they worked properly on my other TouchPad in which I installed the games before the market update. Tested the theory by uninstalling Angry Birds Seasons & Dead Runner from the TachPad on which they were working properly then re-installed them = loaded in portrait mode only = new market update broke non-TouchPad games that did work with the TouchPad prior.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

I have loaded Angry Birds seasons to test this issue. I am able to reproduce this issue and I will be forwarding this to our engineering group for a solution.

My caps lock was stuck and I shut down. Now it's coming back up in safe boot and asking for a password. It won't take my password, I believe because of the caps lock problem. So, how can I get in?

My caps lock was stuck when I shut down my computer. It is coming back up in safe boot (I had spilled liquid on it).
It's asking for my password - which has some lower case letters...So now how can I get in?
Is there a way to change this password or something?
I have a wireless keyboard, but it wasn't set up - so, It's not recognizing it.
Any ideas?

Take your computer to get the keyboard replaced, your lucky it didn't trigger the moisture sensor and brick your machine, so your chances of the machine working well after the keyboard is replaced is likely very good.
As long as the main keyboard is sending a caps lock signal, it's not going to work even if you get in.
If you need to remove files off the internal drive, use a Firewire cable (800 to 400 adpater may be needed) and hold T to boot the problem Mac into Firewire Target Disk Mode and connect the cable to another Mac, the hard drive will appear on the desktop which you can then remove/erase files.

HT1212 I took the passcode lock off of my iPhone 5 and now I can't get on to my iPad. It is asking for the passcode and when I use the one that was set up it locks me out. How can I get past this?

I have the iPhone 5 and with the new sofware update it added a passcode lock. Same for the iPad. I removed the passcode lock from my iPhone and now I can access my iPad. It is still asking for the four digit passcode. I tried using the one that was orgingally programed and it disables it every time. How can I get past this? I have tried to do a restore and it still takes me back to the lock screen. Please help!

Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

HT4221 I arranged my photos in order on my PC and when I synced them to my ipad they appeared in a completely different order. How can I get my folders to transfer exactly how they are on my PC?

I arranged my photos in order and in folders on my PC. When I synced them to my IPad they were in the correct folders but completely out of order. How can I get them to sync in the order they appear on my PC?.

On iOS 5 (if viewing individual photo albums on the iPad) the photo sorting order should be by filename, on iOS 4 it's date taken (from here) :
iOS 4 sorts photos by the Date Taken tag of the photos. Specifically, your device uses the pictures' EXIF tags to determine the Date Taken information. Your device will look for the following EXIF tags within your pictures:
Capture Date
Date Time Digitized
Date Time Original
Last Modified
So you will need to change their names or their dates

A cloudy spot appeared on the center of my iMAC, how could I get rid of it?

After turning my IMAC on for about 30 minutes a cloudy spot appeared right at the center of my display, it's about 2 palm size of iregular shape. How can i get rid of it?

If you are still under warranty or have Apple care, you should have your machine examined by Apple. It is not unusual but it is covered. The exact reasons vary but do not be deterred by talk about environmental issues, unless you are a very heavy smoker, that is. It is not advisable for non technical people to remove the glass screen however easy some may suggest it is; that's what a warranty is for.
