  • Orientation lock on the iPhone 6+

    is it just me or does anyone else find it very annoying that orientation lock only works on portrait on the iPhone 6+?
    Apple has acknowledged that this device is somewhere in the middle between an iPhone and an iPad by offering the expanded landscape app views, I think allowing for locked orientation in landscape should be allowed under the same rationale:  there is enough screen real estate to reasonably assume a lot of people are going to be using it on landscape the majority of the time.

    Make sure that you have not turned your "Do Not Disturb" on.  This will have a quarter moon icon.  Hope that helps.

  • I have managed to lock the landscape orientation on my iphone 3 - any ideas as to how I unlock it please?

    I have managed to  lock the landscape orientation on my iphone 3 - any ideas as to how I unlock it please?

    Im not aware that you can lock your screen in landscape so I'm assuming you have locked it in portrait and want to allow it to ne seen landscape, therefore double click the Home button, swipe the icons to the right, you will see an icon with a circle-arrow. That is your screen orientation lock.
    Assuming again you have iOS5 have a look at the following for more help, page 21

    Hi there FphTania,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Orientation lock

    I am used to using the silent button as orientation lock, however In ios7 I do not know how to change this setting. I am aware I can lock orientation by swiping up, however I prefer using the switch on the side of the screen. Does anyone know how to change this setting? I am using iPhone 5 with ios7
    Thank you

    The switch on the side can only be configured as a rotation lock on the iPad. That is not (and to the best of my knowledge never has been) a feature of the iPhone.
    Best of luck.

  • Music and orientation lock

    as almost everyone knows the iOS 4 is coming with orientation lock and the music controls come from the bottom multi tasking bar. I was wondering if the iPod touch second generation would get the orientaion lock and music controls there too or if it will lack those features and be stuck with the old music controls.

    I just upgrade and the answer appears to be no. I read else that at least in beta Apple for reasons unknown to me put this on the multitaskbar only available in newer 3G or later iPhones/iPods.

  • Android orientation lock does not work within the ADPS App

    Hi,
    and another Android App Bug for today. The Android orientation lock feature does not work in Apps created with ADPS. If orientation lock is enabled and I turn the tablet, the orientation off the ADPS Apps will turn with the tablet.
    My Test Tablet is an Acer IconiaTab A510 with Android 4.0.3
    Kind regards
    Yves

    When you say that the orientation lock doesn't work, we have no way of knowing if that means that the screen is locked in one position only, or that it will not lock in one position only. So try something g very basi and reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    In the camera app, you have to swipe up and down on the screen to move between photo, video and the square photo mode options, so are you even in the correct mode to take videos?

    In the phrase " i wanna be able to reveive the call without being able to answer nor see who is calling" what do you mean by able to receive the call but not be able to answer it or see who is calling?
    I do not understanhow you can receive the call but not be able to answer or seee who called. If you do not answer it how can you receive it?

    Reset all settings
    Erase All content and settings
    Reset Network settings
    Etc
    Even
    Reset location and Privacy
    It keeps showing the problem

    If you don't have Find My iPhone  on, you can't lock it. You should report it to your carrier and your carrier might blacklist the phone from use.

  • I bought my iPhone 4 in Hong Kong and I am in Vancouver right now. When I enter the sim card, it locked my iPhone. Is there any way to solve this? Thank you

    I bought my iPhone 4 in Hong Kong and I am in Vancouver right now. When I enter the sim card, it locked my iPhone. Is there any way to solve this? Thank you

    Inserting a SIM card does not lock a phone.
    If the device is carrier locked, the only way to unlock it is to contact the carrier to whom it is locked.

  • DO YOU HALF TO USE THE FINGERPRINT TO LOCK YOUR IPHONE 5S

    do you half to use the fingerprint id to lock your iphone 5s

    Actually, you are never required to use the fingerprint sensor.  You can always unlock your iPhone and make purchases just as if your iPhone did not have such a sensor.
