My screen has locked in portrait view on email?

Can't put my screen on landscape view when using email. All other screens ok, with option of landscape or portrait. I've obviously done something, as it was ok up until recently

Try closing the Mail app via the taskbar and see if it works properly 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 has locked on portrait view

    Help please.
    my iPad had locked in portrait mode. The rotation lock is not on.
    to further enhance this I cannot reset it, the iPad will not turn off and the reset option using the sleep and home button,  does not work. I did a complete rest from iTunes and  still no joy, nothing changed.
    any ideas please

  • IPhone 6 locked in portrait view. How to unlock?

    iPhone 6 locked in portrait view. How to unlock to allow landscape view?

    Swipe up from the bottom of the Home screen to open the Control Center. Tap on the button on the far right at the top (the one with the little lock surrounded by a circle with an arrow) to unlock your screen rotation.

  • Inline and floating locked in portrait view

    My photo book was rejected today because it's not viewable in portrait format.  My intention was to have the book ONLY be viewable in landscape format and that it's more than obvious that you need to turn the pad to landscape to view it–the thing is primarily composed of landscape-format images!
    I saw in today's "disappearing shapes" thread that you need to edit in portrait and layout in landscape, so I'm trying out that approach.
    In portrait mode, I can't get an image to appear in the text column, only as a thumbnail in the left margin.  Inline and Floating are greyed out, only Anchored is available.
    How can I unlock these?  Will that allow me to place the images in the text as in Landscape format?
    Thanks.

    Never click on anything like that and resubmit.
    Test it on a device first.
    Testing it goes without saying, right?  Seems to work.  You saved me a ton of work redesigning a compromised layout.  If I could give you doube bonus points I would! 
    So by clicking disable portrait view it will force the landscape layout to resize smaller to fit portrait view like a pdf does?
    No idea what that means, sorry. How could something resize from something it doesn't do...
    Where did you learn that iBA's portrait view supports PDFs?
    I was talking about looking at a PDF version of this book in iBooks.  When you rotate the pad the landscape image simply rotates and resizes.  Disabling portrait in .iba just locks the book in landscape no matter how you turn the pad.  Perfect for my needs.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I have installed iOs8 on iPad and the home screen is locked on portrait yet all have rotate

    After installing ios8, the home screen is locked out in portrait mode yet all the apps rotate to landscape.. what's up?

    If there isn't a padlock icon at the top right of the iPad's screen then have you tried a soft-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.

  • After charging my iPhone 5s the screen has locked with the Apple symbol and will not switch on or off even after connecting to iTunes , i am using the original Apple charger

    Has anybody had a similar problem , after charging my iPhone 5s (with the Apple charger and cable ) , the screen on the phone has locked with the Apple Symbol , the phone will neither switch on or off for me to take any action , restore , upgrade etc

    I think your iPhone must be stuck in Apple logo. If so, you need to read the help guide: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support

  • Macbook Screen has light spots when viewing dark background

    So I just got a new macbook for my birthday about 2 weeks ago, and I've noticed that at the top of my screen there are two identical lighter areas that make the screen look like it's bent, when it is not. I can only see these two spots when I'm viewing a black or dark image in full screen mode. I'm wondering if this is fixable or if Apple can replace the screen.I have not exerted any force on it, and it was noticeable when I got it, but it has gotten slightly worse. It's not a huge issue, just irritating when viewng movies etc.

    it is definitely possible to have a bum screen. i had a similar situation with my macbook, except it was a darkened area on the right side of the screen.
    take it back to an apple store and they will replace your computer for free since the screen is considered an inoperable area for the apple techs there. just make sure you schedule and appointment at your local store with the Genius Bar before you go, else you may be waiting in line for a long time.

  • Just got a Iphone5 and the screen has locked.  How do I unlock.  Siri keeps annoying me as well

    I just purchased the iPhone 5.  The screen is now lock and "Siri" keeps talking to me.  How do I unlock the screen and make Siri go away?

    I tried simulating and checking the installed PD files and found out the due to the security setting set for Panther, upon installation Palm Conduit installer changes the ownership and permission settings of some Palm folders to Read Only. The Palm Desktop Installer requires these folders have Read & Write access. That is why problems occurs even after seeing complete installation. What I did to correct this is uninstall/reinstall not just once but many times til the complete Palm files were correctly installed to its designated system files.

  • Purchased a new ipad set up a password of 4 digits, screen has locked and now asking for a long password?! please help

    why is my new ipad asking for a long password when I set up a 4 digit code??

    You will most probably have to force your iPad into Recovery Mode to remove passcode.
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • Screen has locked and can't turn it on

    My iPhone screen is turned off. How do I turn it back on.
    This occurred while I was turning the voice override on and off.

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
    You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not help, try to connect in recovery mode to your computer and restore, explained here:

    I can't access any functionality on my icloud email account on my I pad, all functions other than loading has locked up the last received email was a local government one. so I'm using my PC to send this. Any ideas how to unfreeze this account? Safari and all other apps seem to be working OK.

    Hi Jim,
    You may not have done anything but glitches happen when systems are old and if you are still on 10.3 perhaps it's time to update or upgrade a few notches.   Or are you on a different OS to your profile?

  • HT4085 Did all of these options as instructed.  Screen still doesn't rotate and remains stuck in portrait view

    Did all of these options as instructed.  Screen still doesn't rotate and remains stuck in portrait view. Help?

    Not sure what you've already tried. Have you locked it using the Side Switch then accidentally changed the side switch to permit Muting/Unmuting?
    Settings > General > Use Side Switch to: Lock Rotation (make sure check box is here).
    Then try sliding the side switch. Also try turning off the device by holding the power and home buttons, then sliding the red slider to the right (then repower).
