Screen Rotation in Remote App

My screen used to rotate while using the Apple Remote App so I could set my iPad in the landscape position on it's smart cover while I was using it.  Now it won't rotate out of portrait mode.  All my other apps that rotate still do.  Has this changed in Remote?  Does it only display in portrait mode now?  That would be a bummer!
I can't find any settings that pertain to just this app and screen rotation.
Thanks.

Are other people able to turn their iPad Minis and have the Remote app rotate it's screen?

  • IPhone 5, Is there a way to stop screen rotation for specific apps?

    The automatic screen rotation feature is useful - sometimes, and just plain annoying other times.  I prefer to read my e-mail in portrait mode, however the slightest movement or rotation while doing so will cause the screen to rotate (with the phone generally still in portrait position).  I then have to shake the phone to get it to rotate back.  This is very annoying.
    I would like to be able to lock the screen rotation for only a single app (e.g. mail) while still keeping it active for the camera, or videos.  Many of the book programs that I use, have this feature built-in, however this question is for apps that do not have this built-in.
    The built in rotation lock is all-or-nothing, and is generally a pain to use.  It adds another step to just about everything I do (If I read mail, then want to view a video, I have to go back and unlock it).
    Is there a way to lock the screen rotation for a specific app?

    I would have expected this function to be available in settings where the application specific settings are located.  (At least for the major applications like e-mail).

  • IOS 8.1 screen rotation in music app problem

    I'm currently experiencing a problem with my music app on the iPhone 6.  Whenever I open the music app and rotate it into landscape mode, the screen switches off but when I rotate it back to portrait it comes on again.How do I solve this? On iPhone 6

    I have rebooted the iPhone 5 and initially things seem to be fine. But then after a while if as I say, you disconnect the headphones or some other disruption occurs to the music the play/pause button in the command centre does not work. If you the go back to your list of tracks the little graphic equaliser icon is working indicating the track is playing, but it is not!
    I wasted a couple of hours yesterday thinking some work I was doing on my bike was faulty but I then tried it with an ipad on the last version of iOS and that works fine, the music resuming normally after a nav instruction interruption.

  • Why won't my iPhone 4 screen rotate and why do my apps launch upside down?

    Hi, I've had my iPhone 4 for maybe a month now and it's been working completely fine until today some problems developed.
    1. My screen won't rotate when using apps, text, etc. even though I have screen rotation unlocked.
    2. When opening some of my apps (example: Cleverbot, Bejeweled) they launch upside down for some reason, but only when I have screen rotation unlocked. If I lock screen rotation they launch upright.
    P.S. Screen rotation and the apps were working completely fine up until today all of a sudden they stopped working right and I have no idea what I could have done to cause it.

    To be precise:
    Check to see if Screen Lock is ON, then turn it OFF. Press Home Button twice quickly > scroll new bottom row to the right > Tap Screen Lock icon on left side.
    NOT the little icon at the top of the screen.

  • Remote app won't wake up apple tv

    If you add music videos to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from different playlist, you no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iPhone 5 to play out of iTunes. It looks like it works fine for regular music, but for music videos you can't see your up next unless you go back on the computer to change once you've left the screen. When using the remote app, you shouldn't need to go to iTunes on the PC to view or edit Up Next already added. See first image, you can hit upper right and get back to Up Next (second image). Third image is music video, where you can't get back to Up Next, just swap between full screen and not. I hoped 3.0.1 would have the answer, no luck!

    wow, very nice review Makes me want to get a vision for myself.

    I would love that feature. I can't stand useing my computer with a single wall paper anymore (I have 500 anime pics that i rotate between every 2 mins ) If you could make the vision rotate background every x minutes or every time the player is turned on, it would be totally amazeningly sweet!!!! (i might have to go out and buy one then :P)
    I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.
    Once again, great review

  • IOS7 screen rotation :in app smooth - homescreen not so

    I just noticed that the screen rotation isn't as smooth as before on the homescreen since IOS 7 .
    But within an app the rotation is still smooth.
    iPad3 here.

    Are other people able to turn their iPad Minis and have the Remote app rotate it's screen?

  • HT1947 Remote app under iOS 7 does not rotate to landscape mode

    I am using the remote app to control iTunes on my computer.  I have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.2.  The remote app only displays in portrait mode.  If I rotate the iPad the app stays in portrait mode.  Anyone know how to fix this.

    Thanks so very much. That was exactly what I needed to know. May God Bless you for your helping heart.

  • Remote app start screen on iphone

    I'm most of the time using the Remote app in my iPhone to command my Apple TV when listening music.
    This works as it should with only one issue: each time I start the app and connect to my Apple TV to do whatever I want (change playlist, etc.) the first screen I get is the "black screen" used to command interactively the Apple TV.
    I would like to skip this screen and go directly to the "Playlist" screen but I'm unable to do so.
    Someone knows the trick?

    yeah, that's a hassle. maybe send an email and request this ability.

    So does this mean that I cannot have rotation lock off and the mute function off at the same time? In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?

    In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
    Yes, you can. You can configure the Side Switch (above the volume button) either as Mute switch or Rotation lock.
    Settings > General > Use Side Switch to: choose what you like the Side Switch to function as.

  • Apple TV remote no longer working, unpairing is giving me resolution screen, lost Remote app control as well.

    I've been trying to sort this out for a while; somehow my Apple TV is no longer homesharing with the rest of my network.  I had hoped to use my apple TV remote to re-activate the Remote Apps I have on my iPod, but the remote isn't responding.  I've tried unpairing, but if I press menu-rewind for six seconds, it sends me to the resolution screen instead, and the white light flashes repeatedly - I can't get the remote to accept the resolution settings, or get the cursor to even so much as move.  Extremely frustrating as I've been unable to make this work for a week and I don't drive (I'm disabled and housebound) so just popping into a shop somewhere to get it fixed is a slim-to-none chance of possibility.
    I really hope there's a better solution!

    all apple remotes work out of the box
    borrow the remote from the neighbors kid Eric that he got with his appletv or imac or macbook or the likes it works
    or buy a new remote it works
    borrow Erics remote and use it to setup remote app on an ios device that works too

  • What's going on with ios8... Screen rotate does not work anymore, wifi doesn't work very well anymore and apps are crashing or running slow... Come on Apple sort this mess out

    ssince I updated my iPhone 5s to ios8 ive had nothing but problems...
    first the the screen rotation is not working... Checked the settings and  lock is off.... The wifi is intermittent, some times it works sometimes it doesn't....
    the he iPhone is really slow now, like really labouring.... It hangs and crashes all the time.... I have to close apps down completely because they won't work from quick launch anymore.... Even writing this the phone is labouring.... It's like my old 48k spectrum.... I don't expect this from Apple and when you spend £400-500 on a phone you expect it to work and play propperly....  come on Apple you need to sort out this mess of a update.... Ios 7 was no bother......

    Same issue here... iphone5S 64GB.  It's intermittent.  Sometimes the rotation works fine, sometimes it doesn't, but most of the time it doesn't work.
    The first time I figured out it wasn't working was when all newly-taken photos and videos were showing up in portrait mode though I always hold in landscape mode when photographing.
    Rotation lock is disabled (tried toggling it on and off).  Tried recalibrating the compass on a whim, no effect (although my compass seems to always require calibration when it's launched now).
    This issue only started happening after upgrading to iOS8.  I did a reset/restore through iTunes rather than an OTA upgrade.
    UPDATE - power-cycling the phone seems to fix it temporarily.

  • HT1947 Apple remote app under ios7 won't rotate

    After the ios7 update my remote app doesn't work in landscape on my ipad 2. Anyone else experienced this?

    Same here, Remote is the only app not rotating. Have tried everything I could imagine might fix it to no avail. Considering that the app icon hasn't been "sevened" my guess is someone missed the briefing or Apple doesn't understand how important this app is to some of us. There are already a few other threads on this, haven't yet found a solution in them.

  • TS1741 iOS 7 update - Remote app no longer rotate to side view

    Anyone else having issues with the Remote app and the updated iTunes software?  it just keeps crashing iTunes on my macbook :/

  • IPhone 4S screen rotates strangely in email app

    iPhone 4S screen rotates strangely in email app.
    The top-most status bar rotates (which shows the...
    Signal reception, time, etc.)
    But the rest of screen does not rotate. (Email body)

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
