Trying to plan some games,screen wont go to landscape.

I have the Ipad Air  2 which does not have the side switch.  It says to use the control center.  When I brought up the control center, did not have the icon for the orientation.  Is it that you cannot play some games in landscape, because that is somewhat annoying.   I think it is Brain age and monster busters that I was trying to pla.

There are some apps and games that will not run in landscape orientation. The icon for orientation is a lock icon. You will see it here to the right of the bell icon, on the top row of icons. It is a screen orientation lock. If the app that you want to use will not work in landscape, unlocking the orientation will not matter.
IF the icon is white, then it is enabled or in this case the orientation would be locked. In the screenshot below, my screen orientation is unlocked.

  • Need some help trying to resolve some game crashes.

    Forgot to list OS in SIG.... anyway I am running XP pro.
     What I am getting is hard locks during some (not all) games (Farcry and Rise of Nations are the worst). Anyway I get a God awful high pitched squawk out of my speakers and the games hardlock my system and can only be corrected by resetting or killing power.
    Do you guys think the culprit is the soundcard, platform or the software itself?
    Are there known issues with any of my current hardware FIS2R?
    Ive got all the latest drivers for my hardway and my board bios is the most current 1.5 I think. One thing of note with the Audigy 2 I have not installed all the creative bloatware I kept it simple and just installed the drivers pretty much the same with my 9800 just the drivers and controll panel.
    My boot is pretty clean with just the ATI controll planel icon. bellsouth internet accelerator, volume controll, and the icon that keeps insisting I call MS to authorize my version of XP PRO for the 50th time (those people are gonna start avoiding my phone calls)

    I also had problems with my Athlon 64, similar to yours. Your problem is probably the sound card or the PSU (if the PSU is OK it should run, my Athlon 64 is very stable whatever I do with it after I took the Audigy 2 out (and I only have a +12 15A PSU)). So, my advice is take out the Audigy 2 ZS and use the onboard sound for now. If the problems persist, then it probably is the PSU and not the sound card. People with AMD Athlon 64 seem to run OK with something like Hercules GameSurround Fortissimo 3, so if you want better sound get that.
    PS: I good PSU is ENERMAX EG465P-VE(FM).

  • TS3274 My daughters ipad has stopped downloading new apps, we tried to download some new ones this week and they are just showing as "waiting", we deleted all her games to see if it was a memory issue but they are still showing as waiting.

    We have tried to download some new free games for my daughter this week, there are three which are just showing as "waiting" and not downloading at all and its been almost a week.
    I deleted all her previous games thinking it might somehow free them up but it has not helped.
    please help i am getting nagged!

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

    My iPhone 3Gs randomly shutting off at any given moment. I could be in the middle of a text, a call, or doing some games and it'll just shut off.
    Now here's the unique part. When I go to turn it back on, the apple loading screen pops up but it takes somewhere from 3-5 minutes for it to boot up. Then the lock screen with the time and whatnot shows up. From this point on, my iPhone has a chance to shut itself back down and I have to repeat the process over and over again. Most of the time the lock screen flashes and then goes straight to black (shut down) but sometimes I can make it a few menus before it shuts itself down.
    The only way to keep the iPhone on is to plug it into a charger of any sort. I'm fairly certain it isn't a battery charge issue because this happens at any % of power and sometimes my iPhone can use up all of its charge and not have this happen while other times I can be at 90-100% and it could randomly shut itself down. What can I do in this situation if some has some solution to this problem please let me know on [email protected] Thanks!

    Not sure if this Term is Relevant towards an iPhone but, my iPhone won't Post unless if it's plugged into a Charger.
