TS3274 my iPad screen will no longer change to landscape

my iPad suddenly will not change to landscape, nothing unusual happened, other than I plugged it in to charge it.  I did not turn it off.  I do have a magnetic cover.  Some one please have an answer, thanks.

Could you have accidentally hit the little switch under the volume rocker switch? it serves a double purpose, all mute or rotation lock.

    my ipad screen will no longer rotate.  How do I unlock this or do whatever needs to be done?

    Have you got rotation lock on (is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator) ? If so, then depending on how you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set, it can either be turned off via the switch on the right-hand side of teh iPad, or via the taskbar (double-click the home button, slide the taskbar to the right, and it's the icon far left) - the function that isn't set via the switch is set via the taskbar instead. More info on the side switch/taskbar http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

    my ipad is unresonsive.  I have tried to syn and my compuer will not recognize it

    Try a reset first: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.
    If the reset doesn't fix it, try a restore:

    Double-click the Home button and swipe Task Bar to the right. Check the Rotation Lock on the far left of Task Bar.

  • My classic video ipod won't switch back to regular video mode after using it on an elliptical. The port still allows me to charge and works on the elliptical and treadmill but it will no longer change modes to allow me to watch my shows on the ipod screen

    From the iPod's Main Menu choose Videos -> Settings and make sure TV Out is set to Off.
    Otherwise, try a hard reset as well.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Installed SMC 1.3 update on 17 inch MBP - screen will no longer turn on!

    Hey guys I downloaded this firmware update today on Software Update. The fan revved full speed (like it says it will) then stopped. After the restart my screen will no longer turn on. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, connecting an external monitor, and every other trick I can think of. The computer is still running as I can log in and use the function keys to change the volume up and down but the screen is solid black.This is the first issue I've had with the computer (purchased December 2007)and I DESPERATELY need to get it running ASAP! Anyone have any ideas?
    [edit]
    To elaborate, the first time I called Apple they told me to hold the power button until the computer made a noise and then boot up. That turned the screen back on and I got in and cleared the cache as they said I should. Next reboot screen was black again. Then when I reset the PRAM I got in. Reboot, black screen. Then finally when I reset the SMC I got in, same deal on reboot. Now none of those tricks works. Any way to downgrade the SMC? At least the previous firmware worked.

    Hi Balance ... in this case the weak link in the chain is your local dealer. It is odd that they "refuse clients" and Apple should be made aware of that as they are part of the support structure. Have you tried finding a kind ear at Apple who will take this on and intervene with a phone call to your local chappies?
    I have also been an Apple purchaser for >20 years and this is the first time I have had a software update cause a hardware problem ... perfect storm ... a weak NVIDIA chip (mine originally passed apple tests but those tests only caught the really bad defects), an odd temperature response after the update, and a failure response that most service shops call "intermittent" (which makes them suspect it is your fault instead of Apple's. This is now a known issue linked into the update so if you find the right guy at Apple you may be able to persuade them simply to ship a new motherboard to you or the dealer...
    Good luck but what, exactly, is a viable alternative to Apple?? I still keep my slide rule in my back pocket (and am now working from an old macbook while my MBP was in the shop for a week).

  • HT201412 ipad screen will not slide. Tried resetting and a factory reset but still will not work.

    ipad screen will not slide. Tried resetting and a factory reset but still will not work.

    I have the same issue on my Ipad Air.  Screen will not rotate, I have reset the settings, still only displays in the portrait mode.  A couple of interesting things though.  a couple of days before it completely locked up into portrait I would have to turn the ipad off and hold it in the orientation I wanted because it would not change orientation after I was in an app.
    Also, I just played a Netflix video and it was in landscape mode.
    Any ideas?
      Thanks,

    They should replace the whole device, not just the screen. If they have it in stock, you will walk out with in in minutes. If you are not under warranty there is a charge.

  • IPad kindle will no longer pop up.

    My iPad kindle will no longer work.  When I touch it, it shows up for a second and then blinks off.

    try this.  double tap the home button fast, and a menu should appear on the bottom of the screen (the phone should be unlocked for this)  Scroll through the menu by swiping left or right untill you find the app on the buttom of the screen.  Once you find it, hold the icon down for 3-5 seconds.  Once a x appears on the app on the bottom of the screen, click the red minus over the kindle app.  Then click the home button once.  Then try the app again.  Let me know if it works!
    here is what it should look like if you have questions:
    Double tap the home button and you should see this:
    then find the kindle app and hold it down unti. l you see the red - like this
    Then just click the minus and reopen

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • Since updating my ipad it will no longer connect to the internet

    since i've updated my software on my ipad it will no longer connect to the internet. my husbands iphone will not connect either. my laptop connects immediately and my internet signal is full strength. is there something we are missing?

    Hello dchoffa,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I would start with this troubleshooting from the article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your W-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    If the above troubleshooting does not resolve the issue, I would next try the troubleshooting in one of the other sections down toward the bottom that fits your scenario.
    Regards,
    Sterling
