The view won't rotate unless I put it to sleep and then wake it up in the new orientation.  rotation is not locked.

The view on my I-pad won't rotate.  I know its not locked.  started yesterday.  I-Pad is only 2 weeks old.  what coul it be?

You are absolutely sure the screen is not locked? You do not see the lock icon in the upper right part of the screen next to the battery percentage indicator? If the lock icon is there - the screen is locked.
Restart your iPad. Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. Then hold the sleep button until then Apple logo appears and let go of the button to restart. See if the screen will rotate now.
If that doesn't do it try a reset - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.

  • Startup gets past Dell logo to Windows logo, but not further unless I put it to sleep mode and then wake up

    Hi guys, new to the forum and very much hoping to get help to the following problem:
    I'm experiencing a very unusual problem that I've never encountered before nor read about anywhere on the internet. After installing a clean install of Windows 8 on my Dell Inspirion N5050, startup does get past the Dell logo and onto the Windows loading logo.
    However, it won't go further than this. The logo goes away, leaving the screen blank (NOT black) and it won't continue to the logon page or start menu. All lights are burning (meaning it's working somewhere underneath that weird blank screen). And the funny
    thing is that when I press the power button (or close the lid) to put it to sleep and then wake it up by pressing again, the logon/start menu is there and Windows is working perfectly.
    In short: everything works perfectly, except that I have to put the computer to sleep and wake it back up in order for me to see/get into windows.
    Has anyone heard of this problem before? I'm so utterly confused here!
    Thanks so much in advance!

    Hi,
    This issue can be caused by failing to load files or drivers.
    First, I suggest you to try to boot into Safe mode, and shut down and power on to see if there is the same issue:
    Please use these steps to boot into Safe mode:
    Windows key + Run -> Type msconfig, and press Enter -> Under Boot tab, check on “Safe boot” -> Click Ok to restart computer.
    To disable boot into safe mode automatically, repeat above steps  and uncheck the Safe boot option.
    If the issue not persists, please try to disable fast startup to make sure all the drivers were load properly and check the results:

    Can we get this done?
    If the issue still persists, please post back the event log (System) here for further research:

  • IPhone 4 (with iOS 5.0) won't go to Landscape while taking photos/videos EVEN IF PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING IS NOT LOCKED! However, watching YouTube/Videos is stuck on LANDSCAPE!

    My iPhone 4 (with iOS 5.0) won't go to Landscape while taking photos/videos EVEN IF PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING IS NOT LOCKED! However, watching YouTube/Videos is stuck on LANDSCAPE!
    I was getting this even on iOS 4.0, but under this OS, I can restart the phone, and in some cases, this problem goes away.
    However, under iOS 5, it simply wouldn't go to LANDSCAPE. Photos is not a worry, since I can just rotate this, but videos is now stuck on Portrait!
    Again, the PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING is NOT LOCKED! But it still wouldn't go to Landscape.
    Is this some sort of a "gyroscope" problem??
    O

    Sorry, but you are mistaken about both observations.
    You CAN DEFINITELY take photos in Landscape and you CAN DEFINITELY watch YouTube videos in PORTRAIT (just tried it now using my sister's working iPhone).
    Also, my CALCULATOR does not go to LANDSCAPE (i.e. from normal to Scientific) automatically.
    So I still think it could be a gyroscope problem...but I'm not 100% sure.

  • HT1766 Sadly the last update is causing my battery to run constantly  even if i am not using it.  Ihave been told to reset my iphone and then set it up as a new device .  How do I do this and keep my contacts and calendar?

    I recently did an update and my iphone 4 battery now drains within 6 hours (preveiously would be fine for 36 hours),  I was told to reset my iphone and then set it up as a new phone , so as not to have the problem recur.  How do I do this and maintain my contacts and calendar if I am not using my computer back up?

    Of course the battery "runs" constantly, otherwise the phone would die.  Duh! 
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

    I can't get in my iPod and it won't reset unless i put in my pass code which i don't know what should i do ?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • HT1751 i bought a new, larger external hard drive. copied my itunes library from the old drive to the new one, changed the libarary location in Edit/Preferences/Advanced to the new drive. iTunes will not start or run unless old hard drive plugged in.??

    I bought a new, larger external hard drive. I have my iTunes library on the external drive instead of C: drive, Using Windows 7.
    I copied my itunes library from the old drive to the new one, changed the libarary location in Edit/Preferences/Advanced to the new drive.
    iTunes will not start or run unless the old hard drive is plugged in.
    If I disconnect the old drive iTunes shuts down.
    Any ideas. ??

    Hello kskip,
    Thank you for providing so much information about what is going on.  It sounds like you have setup iTunes to save new content to your new external hard drive in iTunes>Preferences, but it sounds like iTunes is not opening iTunes Library.itl file on the new external drive.  You have one last step to take to have iTunes point to your new external hard drive rather than your old one:
    Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
    If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
    If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
    You should see the following screen:
    Additional information
    If you do not see the screen above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.
    Once you select "Choose Library," you will need to navigate to the iTunes Library.itl file on your new external drive.

  • I put a Tesco sim (02 carrier) in 2 unlocked phones, Both phones are now locked to 02, 02 blame apple, I connect the iphone to itunes and it states that the new carrier (orange) is not supported

    I put a Tesco sim (02 carrier) in 2 unlocked phones, Both phones are now locked to 02, 02 blame apple, I connect the iphone to itunes and it states that the new carrier (orange) is not supported, Isk this of both 02 and apple, who's phone is this and what right do you have to lock a previously unlocked phone?  very angry

    Where did you get these phones?
    These and other forums are full of people with iPhone unlocking problems - the net result is that, as others have said, is:
    If you bought them from Apple they will be (and stay) unlocked.
    If you bought them PAYG from CPW then they will lock to the first SIM activated.
    Any other contract or PAYG phone iPhone bought from the networks WILL be locked by them too.
    However, all is not lost. The original purchaser can request for the phones to be unlocked by Apple, via the carrier. The carriers usually charge around £20 to do this, or gratis if you're out of contract.
    You are the original purchaser, right? If not, you need to get in touch with that person and pray they'll help you out.

  • When my screen goes to sleep and then the hard drive goes to sleep why won't the screen wake up?

    I can repeat this 100% of the time.  If I let the screen go to sleep (or I manually put it to sleep) and I shut the computer so the hard drive goes to sleep (or if the hard drive simply goes to sleep on the timer), when I open the Macbook Pro the screen will not wake up, although I think the hard drive does as the back light on the keyboard turns on.  Any ideas on why this is happening.  My computer is 4 weeks old...a bit frustrating.  The best answer I have gotten is get a new one for Apple...or completely re-install the OS.
    Jared

    The reason why it's happening is not obvious and can't be determined without more information. The fact that you can reproduce the problem makes it a lot more tractable.
    As a first step, boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup.) Can you reproduce the problem now? If so, note the time, then reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and look in the system log for error messages at the time the screen failed to wake up.

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
    Still no joy, see these.
