Screen won't flip (possible issue with accelerometer)

When I turn my ipod, the screen is supposed to flip, however, it does not. Usually restoring fixes it, but now it is only a temporary fix and usually only fixes it for maybe a night. My warranty is expired. I have a 2nd generation 8g ipod touch. Any suggestions.

Try flipping the little black switch - the side switch - above the volume rocker on the side of the iPad. If that doesn't work, double tap the home button and the task bar appears. Swipe all the way to the right in the task bar and look all the way on the left and there may be a lock icon there. Tap it to unlock the screen rotation.
You can set the side switch to lock the screen or mute system sounds. Go to Settings>General>Set Sidw Switch to: and select Lock Rotation or Mute System Sounds.

  • IPhone screen won't flip horizontally for videos

    After I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 7 my screen won't flip horizontally for video clips. It does flip for YouTube but not for music videos.
    Please fix!!

    This is ridiculous.  Half the time it will go horizontally to a song that isn't even playing.  The other half of the time it's a tiled screen with album covers.  They have the most stupid things that don't work right!

  • Ipad screen won't flip?...

    Just got an ipad used it a couple of times and when I went to use it last the screen won't flip and I must use it sideways only? Did I accidently press a button or change the settings somehow or is it broken? Any advice would be great, thanks!

    HI,
    Top right side of your iPad there's a switch (screen rotation lock button) just above the volume button. Push it up.

  • What's possible issue with original Airport?

    Hi,
    I recently just purchased a used Powerbook G4 867 512M and installed an original airport card. The signal strength indicator seems to flicker in and out from no strength to highest but mainly resting at the "second" bar strength. This laptop is sitting next to a G4 tower which is getting full strength. Is there a possible issue with my laptops connectivity? Should I re-seat the airport card? What could be the issue?
    Thanx in advance.

    Hi,
    Duane. Althoughity, I didn't verify whether the card had any physical connectivity issues, I don't think that is the problem. I made the simple move in location and that seem to have change the "bar" strength. I guess where I was was not a good area for network connectivity. Thanks for possible solutions and causes.

  • IPad screen won't flip anymore

    My iPad won't flip the screen anymore. If I turn it horizontally, it stays vertical unless I turn it off with the top button and turn it back on. It's the same if it's  horizontal. It won't flip vertically if I turn it. How do I fix this?

    Try flipping the little black switch - the side switch - above the volume rocker on the side of the iPad. If that doesn't work, double tap the home button and the task bar appears.

  • Possible Issues with Duplicate Training Database?

    Hello everyone!
    First off, please forgive my ignorance! I've only been working with databases lightly over the last couple of years, and thus far only with MySQL and MS SQL.
    Recently the company I work for purchased a new software package that required Oracle. We purchased a copy of Oracle 10.2 as part of the deal and the company that sold it to us, and set it up for us, has denied us dev access to the database, on our server, because it would expose their underlying data schema. I wasn't in change when the decision was made and we spent the money on a crippled copy of Oracle, but that's in the past.
    Because we don't have dev access to Oracle we're unable to create a training database for this new software in house. We have to pay this company to create a test environment for us. I was told it would cost $500, until the tech said he was going to install Oracle on our training server.
    At this point I stopped him and said at $500 they'll either be breaching their licensing agreement, or giving us a free copy! The other possibility is that they were going to install this and then just bill us for Oracle later on, despite quoting the job at $500.
    The tech who was about to do the installation went to check with someone more senior and then returned to inform me that installing the second copy of Oracle would indeed require more licensing fees.
    This verified what I already had told him, and I said we want a training database on our existing Oracle server, and then training copies of the new software can just point to that training database.
    He now needs to take time with the more senior technicians while they're "analyzing the existing database server/environment". He was trying to talk me out of installing a training database on the existing server, and instead buying another copy of Oracle, which I believe to be a total cash grab. He had no solid reason why he couldn't do it, but refused to anyway and said he needs to talk to a more senior tech (the same one who said that yes, we'll need to purchase a second copy of Oracle rather than use a second database on the existing server).
    So, these two databases, one live data and one a duplicate of that live data used in a training environment where changes won't be reported against, should be able to exist peacefully should they not? The same version of the same software accessing the same data from the same server, just a different database, shouldn't present any problems with my limited knowledge of Oracle! There will only ever be maybe 5 connections to the training environment at a time, and the server should be able to currently handle twice as many users connected as it's current maximum (edit: expected) load.
    I know this wouldn't be a problem with MySQL, or MS SQL, and Oracle is a superior database package, so can anyone think of any legitimate reason that might back up the claim that having that duplicate database will be a problem?
    Thanks in advance for any guidance here!

    Thank you very much John!
    We have a per user license and I don't expect our training needs to exceed even a half dozen people at a time to start (A small, significant, fraction of the initial user base). In the future we can easily recommission other resources, or purchase more. The whole project is in the earlier stages anyway, so the needs are smaller now (but the money we spend on licensing could be recurring).
    I understand the requirements angle from a server perspective, but those points you brought up drill down into what I need to know a bit more.
    I doubt rollback segments would be necessary, I was thinking more along the lines of scheduled replication/duplication of the production database on a weekly or monthly basis, just to keep the material at least somewhat up to date.
    I also don't think temporary table space would put much load on storage either, at least in the long run.
    RAM isn't much an issue with a 64 bit version running either, for our needs now at least.
    My instinct, and what you mention about even potential impact of altering the existing database schema enforces this, is that it's basically safer to create a separate database, but less resource intensive to alter the schema of an existing Oracle database to suit training needs (in this situation, maybe, making some vague assumptions about software probably), if done correctly (although still carrying risks).
    I do wish I had the time to read up on this more now, and I will as soon as I have the time.
    I probably will download 10g express edition to familiarize myself a bit more now, as soon as I come up with an application for it, to at least try out whatever I read.
    Thanks for the advice

  • Possible Issue with Latest Office 2001 Update

    In the last few days my MB Air mid-2013 with Mavericks did an Office 2011 update to Version 14.3.9. Today I used it for the first time and Excel crashed each time I tried to use it. To get the job done I had to revert to the earlier build (version 14.3.8) from a backup and that appears to work normally.
    I don't know if this is an issue with Mavericks or if the update to 14.3.9 would have crashed with ML, too. Nor do I know if Word would have crashed since I had to get the task in Excel done before an appointment.

    Apparently cannot edit the above. Title should have Office 2011, not Office 2001

  • Possible issue with DFS and CSC error 80070035

    I have a handful of users who have a strange, recurring issue with Offline Files and DFS in Win7 SP1 x64.
    We have a DFS root \\domain.local\DFS. Server ukln1fs1 is a root replica, running a fully patched instance of Server 2012 R2. dfsnamespace is a DNS alias of ukln1fs1, and the SPNs for host/dfsnamespace<.domain.local>
    and cifs/dfsnamespace<.domain.local> are registered with that server.
    Clients have the Documents folder redirected by GPO to
    \\dfsnamespace\DFS\-teamfolder-\-username-\docs and redirection works fine. 
    Sometimes when clients are disconnected from the network and then reconnect, or when they start up disconnected from the network and then connect, they are unable to connect to
    \\dfsnamespace\dfs. They get error 80070035. Clients can connect to
    \\dfsnamespace fine and to the individual shared within the DFS structure. This affects all users on the computer once it has begun occurring, and the only resolution is to restart the computer whilst connected to the domain.
    Kerberos is using TCP (MaxPacketSize 0)
    LanManServer & LanManWorkstation signing requirements match (EnableSecuritySignature 1, RequireSecuritySignature 0)
    Have used FormatDatabase on the CSC service to rebuild the offline files cache.
    Latest hotfixes for Win7 file services and offline files components are installed: KB2775511 (enterprise hotfix rollup), all latest hotfixes from KB2820927 (collection of enterprise hotfixes including offline files and folder redirection components), all
    latest hotfixes from KB2473205 (file server technology services).
    Adapters & bindings order has the SSL VPN adapter at the top followed by the NIC then the wifi adapter. IPv4 is a the higher priority protocol in adapters & bindings.

    Please have a look at this blog (DFSN and DFSR-RO interoperability), it may help you somehow.

  • Hi, iPad screen won't flip when in emails-fine all other applications?

    Hi, I can't get the screen to flip when I'm in the email programme. All other programmes work fine. iPad only 3 days old- worked fine in email until yesterday.

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it rotates 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.

  • Jedi Academy 1.01e Multiplayer Freezes iMac - Possible issue with Leopard?

    Just migrated everything over from my old iMac G4 17" to the new Intel iMac, Jedi Academy single and multiplayers seem to be freezing my iMac hard. I have downloaded the UB patch (1.01e) from Aspyr, made sure all Apple software was up to date, done a clean install after clearing out all the prefs/.plists for it and it will still lock up.
    This occours trying to run Multiplayer, it gets to either 'Awaiting Snapshot' or just joins the server and the system freezes.
    I've been working with Aspyr's technical support, initially they could not get the problem to happen in single player but when they tried multiplayer they experienced the same problem of it freezing the computer. They have passed it on to their Dev team as a possible Leopard problem but figured I'd mention this here as well in case other users have this issue.

    Cannot say, can you use Real Player until it is solved, or flip for mac?

  • Possible issue with MMS and Android

    Anybody else getting this?
    I can send MMS to anyphone and network except other HTC Hero users on our network, did a bit of searching and found this on the voda forum.

    http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=45884

    Hi Mark
    Yes I can send MMS no problems at all to any other handset and network and get them in return, but a bunch of my work colleagues who have the handset on this network have the same issue, they didn't realise until I had mentioned it. Sometimes I get the message but it comes up on the screen to download but it won't let me.
    The reason I posted was to check how widespread this is, since this handset and O.S is new to BT.

  • [SOLVED] Possible issue with makepkg or gnupg 2.1???

    I am quite willing to admit that it's possible I'm totally stupid and missing something basic, but I just wanted to see if this makes any sense to you folks. Basically, I'm wondering if there's a regression in makepkg or gpg-agent with GnuPG 2.1.
    Step 1: Verify the condition of my personal keyring.
    gpg -k | grep Xyne
    No results. Good.
    Step 2: Verify the condition of pacman's keyring.
    sudo pacman-key --list-keys | grep Xyne
    No results. Good
    Step 3: Use pacman-key (NOT my local GPG keyring) to import Xyne's key and trust it.
    sudo pacman-key --recv-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    sudo pacman-key --lsign-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    sudo pacman-key -u
    Step 4: Try to install pm2ml, signed by Xyne, and use makepkg to verify that yaourt is NOT the problem. This will not work.
    yaourt -G pm2ml
    cd pm2ml
    makepkg -s
    ==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg...
    pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz ... FAILED (unknown public key 1D1F0DC78F173680)
    Step 5: Check that I'm not crazy.
    sudo gpg --homedir=/etc/pacman.d/gnupg --verify pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz.sig
    gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir '/etc/pacman.d/gnupg'
    gpg: assuming signed data in 'pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz'
    gpg: Signature made Tue 30 Dec 2014 05:55:07 PM MST using RSA key ID 8F173680
    gpg: Good signature from "Xyne. (key #3) <[email protected]>" [full]
    Step 6: Import Xyne's key into my local GnuPG keyring, which I should definitely not have to do:
    gpg --recv-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    gpg --lsign-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    makepkg -s
    Makepkg will work at this point. I have tried this three times, and I can duplicate it 100% of the time.
    Is my configuration messed up, or can anybody else duplicate this? I'm wondering if the gpg-agent since GnuPG 2.1 doesn't switch home directories or something and refuses to see a new key even though I just imported it? It seems like the key and the signature are both clearly valid, but I can only get Xyne's package to verify using makepkg if I import his key into my ~/.gnupg keyring.
    Again, I could be totally stupid, but I legitimately do think there might be a bigger issue.
    Thanks.

    Okay, sorry! I didn't know that was intended behavior. That actually makes me a lot happier.
    It just didn't seem intuitive to me that I would have to add the developer's public key to my own keyring rather than to pacman's keyring. Almost guides I had previously read previously said I needed to use pacman-key to import the public key.
    This thread can be marked as solved, because there is no issue.

  • Cups software possible issue with headphones

    Im not even sure how to word this correctly, but I have a user who uses Bose headphones to listen to music online. This user also uses the Cups software to take calls from the 7942 IP Phone. What happens is when the user takes a call it will stop the music as it should, but when the call is over it doesnt go back to the music. Is there a setting in Call Manager or the software to check? Why wouldn't it go back to regular functions on the computer through the headphones? 

    I don't think On Screen Dispay is designed for W8.  I installed it but had to do with Compatibility settings but did not see a battery drain. 
    The intel management I disabled in BIOS and never install since I don't have a subscription to the service.
    Glad you solved the issue.

  • Screen won't flip

    I had to change my iPhone today because the earphone jack was not working. Now i noticed that when in safari, the image will not flip horizontally when I flip the iPhone. Is anyone else having this problem or could this be my phone?

    It could be a broken accelerometer. Try resetting the phone - hold down the sleep and home buttons for 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo, and try running Safari again. If that doesnt work, try restoring the phone using iTunes - that will wipe out all your data and get you back to a clean slate. If THAT doesn't work, I would suggest calling tech support.
