My ipad screen won't turn when rotated

My ipad screen will not rotate when I turn the ipad in its side. Is there a setting I need to change?

Yes there is a rotation lock setting.
First try the switch above the volume rocker. If that doesnt work then double click the home button. It should display a multitasking bar at the bottom of the screen. Slide that to the right and it should display a few settings including screen lock. Make sure that it is unchecked.

Hi, iPad screen won't flip when in emails-fine all other applications?

Hi, I can't get the screen to flip when I'm in the email programme. All other programmes work fine. iPad only 3 days old- worked fine in email until yesterday.

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it rotates when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app '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 Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do 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.

Ipad screen won't turn on

My ipad 2 has a black screen and when i try restarting it was the power and home button it turns blue. It can also connect to itunes and i tried restoring it.

Hi....
Connect it to a wall outlet. Make sure the battery is completely charged.
If that doesn't help, connect the iPad to your computer, launch iTunes. Select the Apps tab.
Deselect all Apps, click Sync.
It may be an app that's causing the problem. If remove all apps helps, then re sync 3 apps at a time until you find the culprit.
Process of elimination ...
You won't have to re download your apps, they are stored in your iTunes library.

IPad screen won't rotate.the locks are not on

iPad screen won't rotate. I checked to make sure it wasn't lock. Can anyone help please

Hi,
There are three things you can do.
1) Check the function of the side switch - in the Settings app, under General.
2) Try a reset by holding the on/off and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
3) If this fails, take it to an Apple Store.
Hope this helps and Happy Holidays!

Ipad 3 won't turn on after ios 6 update

Hi everyone,
I'm at a loss! My Ipad 3 was working fine, and while fully charged I updated to ios 6. Everything worked fine and I was thrilled. While at work, I turned the Ipad off, and now it won't turn back on. I've tried resetting, I've tried holding down the power and home buttons (repeatedly, and for long time periods), and I've tried to restore it using my itunes but my computer now doesn't recognize the device when I plug in the USB. but I never see any reaction by the device. No icons on the screen, no apple logo, no nothing... I updated itunes, still the same problem. So, for the life of me, this fully charged relatively new working fine 64G Gen 3 Ipad just won't turn on. Any additional ideas before I dare to go in the crowded apple store for assistance?
Thanks, Hollie

Try this...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

My Blackberry Curve 9380's screen won't turn on!

My Blackberry Curve 9380's display screen won't turn on! The flashing red light still appears so I guess I am still able to receive texts. I can also receive calls; my ring tone goes off but I cannot answer! I have to unlock it and I can't do anything on a touch screen that's virtually useless now. I've done so many battery pulls yet it doesn't work.
I did drop it but it wasn't very hard. My bb fell when it was in my rubber case and the fall was around knee length (I am very short only 5'0). My friend said its possible that the backlight broke. If it is true, how much does it cost to repair it? My warranty expired a few weeks ago...
My friend also said there could be something else wrong with it. Like a downloaded an app that had a corrupt file (this has happened to me before and the phrase "Uncaught exception java.lang.error" kept popping up every time I did a battery pull) or a programming error. I tried Jl_Cmder and I've done reset to factory. I've even tried to wipe everything completely. "The device will reboot to a white screen with a '507' error" this didn't happen... It did reboot but nothing can be seen. I regret it deeply ...
I'm sorry this is so long but please can someone help me? ):

Ouch, that doesn't sound good. Even though it's out of warranty, you should check first with your mobile provider for a repair estimate.
Sorry!

My screen won't turn on even though i recieve calls, can charge it...

It seems kinda weird but things happened this way:
I bought my iphone5c 3 days ago and everything seemed right. Today I was playing some ****** game on it when i suddenly decided to lock it and keep it in my pocket since i was in school. I did. When i tried using it again, the screen won't turn on. The thing is: everytime I try changing it from loud to silent and viceversa, it does vibrate. I called my number from another phone and it does ring and vibrate, but the screen won't turn on. I connected it to the computer and to the charger, and both make that little sound when they're connected to something. The screen didn't turn on in any of those actions...
As i told you, my phone is 3 days old. Hasn't been ever hit, exposed to water or anything like that...
What the **** can I do? I feel kinda betrayed with Apple, since i bought this device 3 days ago.
Someone help me !!!

i have tried this and nothing happens. did my phone turn into a brick in my hand this morning? it was working fine and the screen turned funny colors and faded to black and havent got anything but a apple logo once since. i have tried everything i could find on the support site to no avail. i did get a screen with a picture of a cord, and arrow to the itunes logo. but it will not connect to itunes. please help!!

My iPad screen is not working when I touch it

I can turn it on and it's not frozen but my screen won't work when I touch it and I didn't drop it .it just happened

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

My screen won't turn

MY screen won't turn from sideway to straight up. How do I get it todo that?

Make sure the rotation lock isn't on.
Double tap the Home button and then swipe to the left to make sure the circular arrow doesn't show a lock.
