My ipad 2 screen is frozen / locked in vertical position how do I fix that?

My ipad 2 screen is locked into vertical position and I have tried shutting it off and checking the lock rotation nothing so far has worked. It does have a lock at the top of screen. Help!!!

Double tap the home button and swipe all the way the right in the task bar at the bottom - see if the lock icon is in the far left corner of the task bar. If so - tap it to unlock the rotation.
Or check the side side switch above the volume control on the right side of the iPad.

If those don't work - try a reset.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Can't sinc iPad compuiter recognizes it as a camera. How can I fix that?

It's perfectly normal for your PC to see your iPad as a camera. In fact, the fact that it does that can make it easy to pull photos off of the iPad without having to go through iTunes.
When you plug the iPad in, does iTunes automatically open? or do you have to open it? iTunes can be set either way so if it doesn't automatically open you may need to manually open the program.
Your connection is good since the computer is seeing the iPad, it's just that iTunes isn't. Are you plugged into a hub or extender? if so, try plugging it into the mainbox of the computer.
ALso try different USB ports.
If those switches don't work you may need to uninstall/reinstall iTunes.

When I tweet from my notification center on my iPad mini, the link to the content I'm tweeting about is not included. It only includes the title of the tweet. How do I fix that? Thanks.

The choice should appear as two tabs at the top - imap & pop.
Make sure you're choosing 'Other'.

You could try a reset : 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.
If that doesn't work then other things to try are a restore via your computer's iTunes, and then reset back to factory defaults. If none of them work then you may need to contact Apple.

3) Double click Home button to bring up multitasking tray
4) Press and hold App Store icon in tray; minus sign will appear; press the minus sign
5) Wait 30 seconds and then open the App Store again

HT4061 My iPad screen is frozen when trying to open Safari, any clues?

iPad screen is frozen. Any clues?

If it's just Safari that's frozen then try clearing ites cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset (or if the whole iPad is frozen) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My ipad screen has got locked. This is probably because a teenager tried to use the device in my absence. The passcode screen appears when I restart the device. But, does not respond to typing. How can I revive the device?
The device was synced to icloud some time ago. The Laptop PC I normally use with the device is not with me now and is being formatted for a different reason.

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. 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 cancelling 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.

HT4061 iPad screen is frozen due to a pop up from I cloud which is not getting erased...any suggestions ?

iPad screen is frozen due to a pop up message

I'm guessing this pop-up is saying that you have not backed up your iPad recently...reset your device as detailed below to gain accessibility to your iPad again.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Holding both worked for me as well. The problem occurred immediately after going back to the Apple store. Just purchased the ipad2 and the next day the view account button on data settings disappeared. They had to upload latest update and that resored it. The next day icloud froze the screen. Hopefully this fixes it.

Screen rotation is locked in email only, how do I unlock?

Screen rotation is locked in email only, how do i unlock? The screen rotation is not locked in settings.

To solve it, hold Sleep and Home buttons until the iPad restarts. Another way is to close the Mail application and open it again. To do this, press the Home button twice, hold the Mail icon at the bottom until you see a - button in it, and press the - button to close it. Finally, open the Mail app again

Double tap home button quickly in new row of icons at bottom, tap and hold your Message Icon until the Red Minus Sign appears, tap it to delete from background memory. Then slide all the icons to the right, all the way, see if the Lock Icon is present, if locked, unlock it. See if Message is better, if not, Reset iPhone, hold both home and Power buttons until the iPhone restarts itself, ignore the "slide to power off" let the iPhone restart itself, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.
