My ipod is not going in to landscape orientation

I got new ipod touch 4gen 5.1.1, but its not going in to landscape orientation, even portarait orientation is unlocked from multitask bar, nothing is helping me out, help help help please...

What app are you trying to use in landscape mode? Not all apps rotate.
If the lock in not on and the screen does not rotate in an app that supports rotation
Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Ipod Mini not going to sleep....

    Hi, I have managed to change the battery of my Ipod mini, but still after the Ipod is fully charged the battery life still lasts only a few hours....
    My assumption after reading all the technical documents, is that even though the Ipod mini appears to go to sleep (either by itself or after the play / pause) button is pressed for a few seconds, that in fact the Ipod isn't a sleep and the battery runs down....
    I have updated to the latest 1.4.1. software... only recently happened, and replaced the battery (but perhaps it didn't need it).
    And it's 14 months old so out of warranty...
    Does anyone know of issues with sleep mode not working correctly? Is there a software fix for this????
    Cheers

    I think I'm having the same problem - let me know if you find an answer and likewise I'll do the same. Is going to sleep the same as turning off? Mine doesn't even turn off when I press down the play/pause button!

  • My printer will not let me print landscape orientation.

    Although I set the print parameters, I am unable to print landscape.  I ran the HP print diagnostics and all seems okay.

    No-one can help you if you don't provide any information...
    What is your operating system?
    What is your Reader version?
    What means "will not let me"???

  • IPod not going to sleep correctly

    Hi there,
    I am having an issue with my iPod 5G not going to sleep correctly. When I select the "Sleep" function on the menu screen the iPod with stop responding to the wheel, as per normal, BUT the screen only fades and does not blank itself completely. I can still see the menu items.
    Is this right? I though the screen blanks completely, to save on battery power.
    Advice and thoughts needed...cheers

  • My new ipod do not switch from landscape to portret

    my new ipod do not switch from landscape to portret

    Double click the Home button and swipe your finger to the right. On the very far left side is a arrow going in a circle.  Make sure this is no padlock inside of this circle. If there is, tap the icon once to disable the orientation lock.

    In updating my iPod to 6.1.2, I received an error during the update.  Now, my ipod is not rebooting.  It continues to display a screen showing usb to Itunes picture.   Turning off and back on, it goes back to this picture.  I don't know how to reset so that I can restore from my backup.
    A similar thing happened when I updated the ios on my ipad.  But, I was able to reboot, and then restore from backup.   How can I get my ipod to reboot and allow restore when it is not even recognized as I reconnect to my computer?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Try and force iPod into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPod
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • Library is not going onto my iPod

    I burned a CD into my library and clicked update iPod to get the songs. The songs were not showing up on my iPod, so I tried a second time with another CD. Still wasn't working. I decided that actually installing the newest update might help so I did that. I restarted my computer like it told me to. After the computer rebooted, I opened up my iTunes and it still wanted me to download the update. I clicked cancel and then burned another CD into my Library, clicked update, but still they were not transferring to my iPod. (Note: I run Windows XP, if that helps any)
    Maybe it's because I have my iTunes on both my father's computer and my computer. Yes? No?
    Can anyone tell me what I might have done wrong and what I can do now?
    Thank you.

  • IPod Classic not recognized by iTunes, claims to be wiped of all content, and causes computer problems when connected

    I have an 80 GB iPod Classic that has suddenly developed severe problems. I'm running iTunes on Windows 7 64 bit.
    It was working fine until last night, when I connected it to iTunes to add 6 songs. (Four of these were bought on Amazon.com and 2 ripped from CD's). It accepted the songs and played them fine when connected. When I clicked the icon in iTunes to eject the iPod, it came up with the "OK to Disconnect" and progress bar as usual. However, this time the progress bar didn't start to fill in. It just sat there.
    After several minutes the progress bar finally filled in and returned to the menu... but instead of displaying the cover flow on the right side as usual, it showed a gray box with "No Music."
    When I tried to re-connect it to my computer, iTunes would not recognize it. My computer also wouldn't recognize it at first... after several minutes, it came up as a generic removable device. Attempting to right-click on it or eject it from Windows was unsuccessful.
    The iPod itself displayed "Connected" and alternated the plug image with the spinning arrows. It never said "Synchronizing" as it usually does.
    Furthermore, my computer's performance degraded severely while the iPod was plugged in. iTunes itself froze, and even my other applications (such as my web browser) would not work correctly. This all cleared up as soon as I unplugged the iPod. If I tried to initialize iTunes while the iPod was plugged in, it would not open. It opened immediately when I unplugged the iPod.
    Finally, despite claiming to have no music or other contents (it had contained only my iTunes music library, which is about 26.5 GB), in Settings the iPod claimed to have only 5.3 GB of free space.
    Resetting the iPod with Select/Menu made no change. I was able to put it in diagnostic mode and check the hard drive, which gave these results:
    Retracts: 381
    Reallocs: 0
    Pending Sectors: 10
    PowerOn Hours: 417
    Smart/Stops: 381
    Temp: Current 24c
    Temp: Min 15c
    Temp: Max 48c
    When I put the iPod up to my ear I hear a steady, faint high-pitched sound and an occasional very faint crackling noise. When it shuts down the sound continues for a few seconds, then ends with a kind of squeaking sound.
    The iPod is more than 5 years old, so I'm prepared for the probability that it's fried. But I'd like to try everything before I go ahead and spring for a new one.

    The iPod's hard drive probably has data corruption.  That does not necessarily mean there is a hardware problem.  Hard drives, including the ones in computers, can develop data corruption.
    Try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1363
    If it goes into Disk Mode, run iTunes on the computer and connect the iPod.  To eliminate other potential issues, you should disconnect other USB devices (you can leave standard keyboard/mouse connected), and connect the iPod to a direct USB port on the computer.
    iTunes may prompt you to do a Restore, which you should do.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  If the problem was only data corruption, and there is no hardware problems, the iPod should have a "fresh start."  You can sync it from your iTunes library.
    If the iPod does not go into Disk Mode, or if doing a Restore fails, the iPod's hard drive may be faulty.
