You have activated rotation lock. Check the little switch near the volume control.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I can't get my project to share. A pop up screen comes up saying, "This item can't be shared while it is still referencing media on the camera". Does anyone know what this means.

may you have directly imported clip to timeline without copying it to local drive..
update project for links and check if missing clips are there..
reconnect it if you have it on local drive..

I reset my MacBook pro and a symbol pops up that looks like a file with a ? In the middle of it. Does anyone know what this means?

How do I fix this?

What does "reset" mean? I'm going to assume that means you restarted it somehow, but if you meant something else, please say so.
The flashing question mark means no bootable system could be found. Hold down command-R at startup to enter recovery mode, then repair the hard drive with Disk Utility. If it succeeds, you may still need to reinstall the system, as some files may be corrupt. You can install right over the existing system, but it would be wise to be sure you have backups beforehand in case something goes wrong.
If repairs cannot be made, you will need to try another utility,mike DiskWarrior, or just erase the hard drive and reinstall from scratch.
If the hard drive does not show up in Disk Utility, it has probably dies and will need to be replaced.

HT3275 Time machine cannot backup due to "The backup disk image "/Volume/Data/Dave's Macbook Pro."sparse bundle" is already in use." Does anyone know what this means and how to fix it??

My time machine is sending me a message; "The backup disk image "/Volume/Data/Dave's Macbook Pro "sparse bundle" is already in use". As a result, the time machine cannot complete a backup. Any suggestions?

Look at the more like this column on the right.. this is the most common problem reported here.
You need to restart the TC.. that is all..
Pull out the power cord.. count to 10.. plug in power cord.
There are a few occasions where this fails.. see C12 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html

TS1424 I am receiving error message -3212 when trying to access the iTunes Store. Does anyone know what this means?

Not sure what to do about the error message I am getting. Also, my itunes is not recognizing my phone when I plug it in.

Just in case, let's try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

My battery seems to be making the computer hotter than before and it actually is too hot to keep on my lap. Does anyone know what this means?.

My computer seems to be much hotter lately when it is on my lap. Does this ean I need a new battery or is there a problem with the computer? Thanks.

If your machine is noticeably hotter than you're accustomed to even when running on a hard, flat surface, have a look at this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1473
You may have something running in the background that's using a lot of processor cycles and heating things up unnecessarily (and running your battery down faster and making your fan(s) louder than usual).

HT1926 Everytime I try and install iTunes it says "the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation". does anyone know what this means?

I am using my partners computer. He has iTunes on his laptop but when I went to update iTunes, it said "the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation". I therefore deleted iTunes altogether thinking to reinstall the original iTunes and then upgrade it (i,e start from scratch) but to know avail. Is this a problem with my laptop itself? Or a problem with the internet settings?
HELP PLEASE!!

Let's try something relatively simple. Download and save a copy of the installer to your hard drive (don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet):
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now right-click on the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) that you downloaded and select "Run as administrator".
Does that go through any better for you?
