Screen rotation stopped working

my screen rotation has stopped working, how can I fix this issue?

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If so, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try 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.

Screen rotation stopped working glitch

I had my screen rotated so the Windows button was at the top (so I could prop it up on the arm of my couch and let the heat out on top) and fell asleep. When I woke up and woke the Lenovo out of sleep, the screen rotation wouldn't work. A restart fixed it, but it's definitely a glitch.

Update the intel graphic card driver please.

Screen Rotation stops working and requires a restart

It has happened a fourth time now. I use something in the landscape mode for a while and it locks itself in the landscape mode. Doesn't return to the portrait mode. And before anyone suggests, I use the side switch to mute and not to lock rotation. I guess the accelerometer gets unresponsive. 4th time in a couple of months is not a huge problem, but then what's the difference between iOS and others? There are some other bugs too. If they're bugs at all. Will keep posting.

Back up and restore via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a new device and test. If the problem is solved, there is some kind of corruption in your backup file. If it continues, take it to an Apple store for evaluation of a possible hardware problem.

After ios 7 update on ipad mini, auto rotation stop working. Anyone facing this issue too?

After ios 7 update on ipad mini, auto rotation stop working. Anyone facing this issue too?

for ipad,
if you go to settings-General
You can select between using the side switch to lock rotation or mute. If you select one mute, then the lock rotation icon will show up in the control center. If you select lock rotation, then the mute will show up. THe side switch is then used for the other option.

Help! My screen saver stopped working?

2013 iMac
3.1 GHz i7
16 GB DDR3
OS X 10.9.3 (13D65)
My screen saver stopped working about a month ago. I tried resetting the PRAM and it worked for a few minutes, but then it stopped. I tried using Hot Corners, but it starts and then turns off after a few minutes. I am able to make it work if I turn Airport OFF and disconnect the computer from the internet.
What are my recommended next steps to get the screen saver back to normal function?
Thanks for any and all help.

We are going to delete a hidden file.

drag the one you can (may see two) to the Trash, reboot, reset your System Preferences again.

Screen sharing stopped working after last update

Hello all,
I have run software update yesterday, and there were about 10 downloads (I run this weekely, so these must have been new ones). The thing is that after installing all the updates, one of the features that I use more frequently, screen sharing, stopped working properly. I have a Mac Book Pro and an I Mac, both running on Snow Leopard, and screen sharing has always worked just fine, but not after the latest update.
I checked passwords and they are all right, and also checked sharing properties and all seems to be fine. I can share files all right, but for screen sharing now is only possible by setting the option "anyone may request permission to control screen" (under sharing>screen sharing>computer settings) to on, and ask for authorization each time I need to share screens, not good, mainly if you have the computers in different rooms.
Finally, I own an Me account, so I tried sharing screen via Back to my Mac, but it didn't work either.
Can anyone help?
Thanks a lot,
Luis

Problem solved!
After working with Apple, I have an answer. It looks like the 10.10.2 update changed your firewall settings. Try this:
System Preferences>Security and Privacy>Firewall Options
Scroll down the list till you find "screensharingd". If it's marked as block in coming connections, change it to allow incoming connections.
Be sure to reboot your computer and you should be good to go!

Screen just stopped working

Anybody have any experience with the screen just stops working? Literally one day was working and the next day not. It's a 2009 MacBook Pro, and I've done all the updates and taken really good care of it

I just had this happen to me ... only the screen never came back until I did the reboot action recommended below. Got the home screen, but the slider wasn't active, then the phone went dark. I could still call it, receive calls to my bluetooth headset, etc. but the screen wouldn't come back at all until I rebooted.
Just wanted to let you know you aren't alone, unfortunately.

TS3274 why would touch screen just stop working?

The touch screen just stopped working, it is charged, can not turn off, can't do anything with screen. Has anyone else had this problem and any suggestions
as to how to fix. Thanks in advance

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

IChat screen sharing stopped working

Me and my girlfriend have identical Macbook Pros, and we've been utilizing the screen share capability of iChat for about a month and a half now. Today her capability to screen share stopped working. Nothing has changed recently, we haven't changed any system settings (that we know of) my screen share is still an option, but her screen share is greyed out. Screen sharing enabled is checked on her video option so we really have no idea what else to do. Any ideas?

Hi,
She should do a Speed test
http://www.speedtest.net/ (Use the Yellow Star in the main window)
Are the reported speeds near what she pays for ?
(they are typically shown at about 80% of what the ISP claim to supply)
Try cutting the power to the computer, any router and modem then start them up Modem first, then router then Computer, allowing things to be come established at each device and see if things improve.
If that does not work she should delete com.apple.ichat.plist and then restart iChat.

Screen Rotation not working

I have upgraded my laptop from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Since upgrading the Screen rotation function is no longer available or working. When checking in the property part the following message is displayed. no Pen or touch input available for this display?

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion x360 Notebook and Screen Rotation not working after an update to Windows 10. Here is a link to configure the touch display to identify your screen as a touch screen. The document is for Windows 8 but the procedure is the exact same troubleshooting.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase or that need updating. If your computer is having problems finding and installing operating system updates, try using the Windows Update Troubleshooting tool to fix the problem.Here is a document that shows how to update drivers that are not working correctly with Windows 10.I hope this helps. Thanks.

My Screen suddenly stopped working

My screen suddenly stopped working but it still receives calls. It won't let me answer them nor reject them. My phone was working just fine 10 mins ago. It also won't turn off. Can anyone help me please.

Have you tried a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the Home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so?
