N8 HDMI only works in portrait mode, gets disconne...

Hi. Like the title states, my Nokia N8 HDMI works as expected in portrait mode but when I turn the phone sideways (like when I want to play Angry Birds) it immediately gets disconnected. Even the small "HDMI" logo in the top right corner disappears.
I initially thought it was because the connector was loose so I tried holding it firmly while turning the phone. Same results. Then I tried detach/reattach the cable in landscape mode - no response from the phone at all.
If I switch back to portrait mode the HDMI connection consistently and automatically gets restored without having to detach/reattach the cable.
Is this just a simple setting I need to change in the phone system, or is it a hardware defect? Any help you guys can provide will be very appreciated.

I don't have HDMI cable for my N8 but judging from a bot of googling i did, the thing should work for landscape HDMI. You may have a software problem of an issue with the accelerometer. Are you having issues with any other landscape apps?
You may have to get the phone re-flashed at a nokia care point.
Sorry i couldnt be more helpful

Upgraded to osx10.8 and only works in safe mode

I just upgraded to osx10.8 and only works in safe mode! What now?

"works in safe mode" meaning you do not get instant kernel panic when you boot up, and instant kernel panics on boot-up were happening before? If this is the case, it may be that one (or more) of your third-party log-in items is incompatible with 10.8.

I use to be able to rotate my iPhone and change the view of an image, Web page, email, and so on, from portrait to landscape, but after update, I cannot. I can only view in portrait mode. Anybody know what's up with that?

I use to be able to rotate my iPhone and change the view of an image, Web page, email, and so on, from portrait to landscape, but after update, I cannot. I can only view in portrait mode. Anybody know what’s up with that?

You need to do the basic troubleshooting steps described in the User Guide, Appendix B.
Restart phone
Reset phone
Restore in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware failure in the phone that needs evaluation by Apple.

Movie attachments only play in portrait mode?

When I play an M4V movie from iTunes or even clicking on a M4V link in a URL, my iPhone will automatically default to landscape mode and play the movie. If I rotate the phone, it will switch to portrait mode.
When someone sends me an M4V as an email attachment, it will only play in portrait mode.
Is this a bug or are email attachments treated differently than other movies?

Did you check System Preferences > Displays (with the external display attached and mirroring off, look at the preference pane _on the external display_.
See this linked image (although it's from Tiger, the preference should be there).

My ipod will only work in disc mode

My iPod will only work in disc mode, when i take it off of disc mode it appears with the apple sign but nothing else -
help please.

Yes a Restore will erase your iPod. But this shouldn't be an issue since you obviously must have your music in your iTunes library or backed up somewhere else, RIGHT????? After all, it would be silly to have all your music on just the iPod and no where else, RIGHT?

Monitor only works in safe mode

My monitor only works in safe mode. when restart in normal mode the monitor screen is blank. when I start in safe mode the monitor works fine.

Is there a reason you have not entered the menu as I have suggested and reset the monitor to factory default?
Your old school monitor needs a kick in the pants to remind it that it is plug n' play. That is essentially what the reset will do. It won't hurt anything.
Was the TV you had connected to the PC before using the monitor an HDTV one with 1080p resolution?
In order to reinstall the graphics driver you will need to be logged in as a user with elevated (admin) priveleges. A standard user cannot install drivers or programs. You do not heed to reinstall RAID drivers.
You might need to consider replacing the monitor with a modern LCD display. They are quite inexpensive these days and can evven be found in the second hand market.
If you don't want to do that then you can remove the video card and then connect the monitor VGA cable to the video output port on the rear of the desktop PC. Removing the card will enable the onboard video.

Fixed layout ePub page turn not working in portrait mode

Hello all,
First time poster here. I created a childrens book, full color ePub from the Apple 3.1 ePub template. Everything sems to work great in general. But I wanted the book to be in portrait mode only to get the most out of the graphics. I have the package.opf file set for portrait mode, which shows just one page (correctly), but when turning pages the cool page turn animation does not work when testing on my iPhone5 and an iPad2. Pages just slide left or right. But when I change the opf to allow landscape mode, when testing on iDevices, it shows two pages at a time in any mode and the page turn effect works perfectly. Any way to get the page turn animation to work on just a single page in Portrait mode? To add to it I have an ePub example book from a non-Apple publisher that defaults to single page portrait, and is mostly text (so I'm not sure if its fixed layout or not), and the single page portrait mode allows the page turn animation to work perfectly.
Thanks all!

The small caps are wrong in Source Sans Regular. This are not correct small caps . This seams to be missing in the font.
But in italic style you will find correct small caps. They only work in InDesign not in ePub.
And if you look in my images (first from InDesign, second from Radium - iBooks looks the same) you can see many difference between InDesign and ePub.
Note the word "pfiffig", the I at the beginning of "Igor" in second paragraph and the "a" in the italic paragraph.
This is very frustrating!

Video recorded in landscape only plays in portrait mode on HD tv

I recently obtained iphone 5s. I've recorded several videos with the phone, in landscape mode. When I try to play the videos connected to my tv via HDMI A/V cable the videos will only play back in portrait mode (quality is distorted and horrible).
Same goes for the videos recorded in landscape mode on my old 4s (which prior to IOS 7 would play back in proper mode).
Phone is not locked in portrait mode.
Video will play on phone in landscape mode...just won't play in landscape on the TV.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks for any assistance!
D.

I had the same exact problem. Some of my landscape videos would get squashed into a portrait size view on the TV.
What I did as a workaround was to hold the phone in portrait mode, play the landscape video, and if it didn't fill the screen correctly, I would swipe the video as if I was going to another video/photo, but without lifting my thumb/finger, swipe it back so that it returns to the original position.
What happens is that the video on the TV screen should resize into a smaller landscape image (with the circle play button in the middle of the image). Then usually when I hit the play button again, it will play properly in landscape mode and, more or less, fill the screen properly.
I find it odd that so few others have faced this issue.

NO CARRIER - Phone only works in 3G mode, and periodically loses signal

Hi.
Recently my iPhone 3GS has stopped working on the 2G network and has become somewhat unstable on the 3G.
After traveling i found my phone rendered semi-defect.
After a travel through 2 countries my phone stopped working on 2G network.
to be able to connect to a "roaming" provider the phone had to be in 3G mode.
the 2G mode is now not working at all.
Once in a while the 3G also sets out, and i have to put the phone in flight mode and back to be able to get a connection to the carrier. (this could be caused by a non 3G zone i guess).
I have done the following steps to try and resolve the issue.
1) do a general network reset (no resolve)
2) do a general phone reset (no resolve)
3) do a iTunes restore, where the phone was updated, and blanked (no resolve)
continue and restore the previous backup (no resolve)
phone is running OS 3.1.3
I have tried the SIM card in another phone, and the 2G works fine on the carrier side, so i dont find the SIM defective.
somehow i thing the phone has totally flipped the 2G settings, and i dont know how to resolve it.
anyone?

The internet isn't the problem. The phone really only works when I am in Wi-Fi. The data is the issue. Yes I have tried all of these resets, lost all of info on the phone and I am very fed up. This has been going on ever since the wonderful roll out of ios7. When I 1st did the upgrade it deactivated the phone, I had to go to the store, luckily they were able to fix that. Ever since then though the phone is worthless. My question at this point is more related to this being a phone issue or a Verizon issue. I live in 80207 (denver) and work in 80202 (downtown Denver). I would really just like to know if this is a network issue here, or if Apple just ruiend a perfectly good phone to get me to "upgrade."
Is this a Verizon issue or Apple issue?

Push Notifications only work in Airplane Mode + Wifi

I have a problem with my push notifications. They only work exactly when I have my phone in Airplane Mode and with Wifi enabled. Here are the details of my phone:
Phone: iPhone 3GS
OS: 3.1.2, NOT jailbroken, NOT unlocked
Activation: Not Hacktivated
Data: "Unlimited Mobile Browsing" - others report that they are able to get Push notifications through this connection on my cell phone provider
Push Notifications: Do not work when not in Airplane Mode
I have search the internet for countless hours for a solution and although I have discovered some threads where people have the same problem, no solution was provided.
Please help me,
Thanks

It could be there's not enough signal for the push notifications to come through. I hardly get them on the 3G network due to having 3 bars or 4 bars. Also doesn't work good indoors. When I have 5 bars, I'll be able to receive them.
It could be a network issue to speak with the carrier or "Mark the Spot" app as no coverage/no data if you have AT&T. It could also be Apple's Push Notification Service having problems while they update their service to have Push and Local separated.

ATI 9700 only works in Safe Mode ?

Hi,
I purchased a Celestica ATI 9700 MAC gfx card and it seems only to work in Safe Mode. In normal mode my G4 boots but wont reach the login screen, the screen stays blue and occasionaly it may show the mouse(responds).
I can only think that the card is broke and isnt being stressed by Safe Mode or has some kind of incompatible firmware?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated as i'd love to get the 9700 running in my machine.
Cheers
John

Hi
I could well be wrong but I've always been under the impression the 9700 only works in MDD G4s. I believe they were only available from Apple at the time as a built to order option and the AGP slot in all MDD G4s was modified to provide additional power to the card. I'm not sure whether third party 9700 graphics cards need this though. The 9800 gets round it by having a separate internal power connector, so it can be used in any G4 with an AGP slot.

Indesign CS6 only works in safe mode (windows 7)

I have installed the CS6 suite in Windows safe mode (after multiple attempts did not work in normal mode, it kept stopping at 2% installed) using the Adobe application manager. I am on a trial period, my company is going to start paying monthly after the first free month.
All the adobe products work ok (photoshop, illustrator, dreamweaver etc), except Indesign. When I double click the icon, the hourglass appear for a few seconds and nothing else.
If I double click the Indesign icon with Task manager open I can see that it appears as a 'process' for about 10 seconds, then disappears.
If I go into Safe mode Indesign will open and work but obviously this isn't ideal.
How can I fix this?
Any help would be great.
(I have done all the usual things, like uninstall the whole package & install again, restart etc. I also ran the Adobe suite cleaner tool incase old versions on this computer were interfering. I uninstalled everything, and deleted the Adobe folder etc.)
I am using Windows 7 Professional with a fast processor, 8gb ram.

Ability to run in safe mode but not in normal Windows operation could point to a conflict between InDesign and the driver for your graphics card. In safe mode, only a generic Windows video driver is used, regardless of your video card. Otherwise, whatever secret sauce driver provided by the provider of your video card is used. InDesign, as well as other Adobe applications, depends heavily on your video card and if your video card supports direct access to its GPU (if it has one), these applications make use of same.
See if there is an updated driver for your video card that you can download. From what I can see, some of the video card manufacturers almost have a driver du jour posted to fix various problems reported by users. If you have the latest driver, see if there are settings associated with “optimization” or “performance” via any control panel item or utility associated with the video card and try scaling those back. That might finesse the problem.

Only works in safe mode

Help....I am only a novice mac user (so I need help in the most layman terms possible). Seems all my Apple products are going kaput; first one being my macbook (early 2008 model). Looks like my disk drive isnt working correctly; I put in a new hard drive.....I went to reinstall Snow Leopard then upgrade to Lion. Ever since then my mac only seems to work in safe mode. I used my imac to load snow leopard....(with firewire); and downloaded lion from app store. is there a way to wipe clean and start over? There is nothing on the computer that I need.....I keep all my important files on an external hard drive. my big concern is I dont know how to do it and second since I dont have a disk for lion will just going back to app store allow me to re-download or will I have to pay 30 bucks again. I have seen others have had similar issues...I just cant seem to figure this out. If anyone can help I will be eternally grateful!
Ray

When your in safe mode try going to the Disk Utility and doing a Disk Repair. Repair Permissions. Then see if that lets you boot normally. If that doesn't work you might need to reinstall Snow Leopard again then upgrade to Lion. (Lion will still be available under your App Store Purchases tab and you don't have to pay again).
I recommend you using Time Machine. Not only do you save yourself the trouble of copying things to your External Hard Drive, but if you run into something like this again restoring it from Time Machine saves you all the time you spend downloading Lion and Installing Snow Leopard. Plus everything is exactly how you last backed up. Everything!
Best of luck.
By the way, if you don't see the App Store when you install Snow Leopard just do a software update from the top left apple icon of your system and you should see it when its done.

Air Display 2 only worked on mirror mode not second monitor

I'm using PC Win 7 enterprise and IPAD Air. IPAD Air installed with Air Display 2.
The Air Display 2 only worked fine when on 'mirror mode', but not working as secondary monitor. IPAD display colour in 'blue' and able to activate the keybaord.
Need tips how to fix the problem to work as extended monitor.

Hi Nagesh,
    Please check the following sample programs. It uses splitter container. I think this suits your requirement.
RSDEMO_EASY_SPLITTER_CONTROL
RSDEMO_SPLITTER_CONTROL
Sample code:
       split_container_left type ref to cl_gui_container,
       split_container_right type ref to cl_gui_container,
       splitter_h type ref to cl_gui_splitter_container,
       splitter_v type ref to cl_gui_splitter_container,
create object splitter_h
          exporting
          parent = cl_gui_container=>screen0
          rows = 5
          columns = 5 .
split_container_left = splitter_h->get_container( row = 1 column = 1 ).
split_container_right = splitter_h->get_container( row = 1 column = 2 ).
        create object splitter_v
           exporting
           parent = split_container_left
           rows = 5
           columns = 5.
Please award points if this is useful.
Thanks,
