TV picture upside down

Model # 55SL417U 
It worked fine for about a month and then periodocally the screen would filp upside down.  It would stay like that for a couple of hours and then flip back to normal.  This past year it's been in storage and now it's almost always upsided down. Every once in a while we'll get lucky when we turned it on but it only last no longer than an hour.

  • Why my iPhone 5S taking pictures upside down?

    I have iOS 8.1 installed in my iPhone. While taking the picture sometimes it displays the camera screen in upside down direction and pictures taken also in upside down direction but sometimes it works fine.
    Also I have encountered that while taking first picture flash sound doesn't come out (Ensured that iPhone is not on silent mode), for the rest of the pictures, it works fine. Could anyone please help me in this.

    Have you tried soft reseting it. Holding the power and home screen buttons. For about 10 seconds. If not the next thing I would do is  reset all settings.: Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings.  If that still does not work. Restoring to factory with iTunes and  not loading a backup. Would be the next testing step. If still does not work. Then it would be something apple would need to fix for you. (1-800-MY-APPLE)

  • Nouveau - picture upside-down and left-right

    I installed nouveau drivers to replace nvidia, but now when desktop starts, everything is inverted vertically AND horizontally, which gives a very weird effect (apart from being unusable).
    Interestingly, cursor is not being inverted at all and order of letters remains left->right, but they are inverted upside-down...

    Sure. I had to take a picture with my mobile, because the display visible on screenshots looked perfectly normal.

  • Monitor picture upside down.

    I brushed off my keyboard and when I looked at the monitor the picture was upside down.
    I've tried shutdown, shutoff, pulling power cord, etc.  When I restore power the picture is still upside down.
    I have a W2072a hp Monitor but I suspect I managed to send a wrongfully command with out knowing.
    Anything?
    This question was solved.

    try ctrl+alt+↑ If that doesn't work, right click on your desktop. Click Screen Resolution. Set Orientation to Landscape.(Instead of Landscape Flipped) Hopefully you have those options!

  • Picture upside down

    No serious problems with installation of Windows 7 or Video display setting. The only frustrating issue is the upside down with Skype and EasyCapture. I have not been able to locate drivers for camera or i am i missing something
    Any help.

    I am having the same problem.  Have you found a solution?

  • Contacts picture is upside down

    I've had this happen to two different contacts.  My picture is a-ok but my contacts picture is upside down.  One contact was using just a tablet to my kindle fire hd, the other contact is also using a kindle hdx and their picture is upside down, now if they turn their unit upside down then I see it a-ok.  Any ideas how to fix this?  I also have contacts using PC's and everything is a-ok.

    I have similar Kindle HDX problem. Kindle Fire HD to Kindle Fire HD works good, no problems on SKYPE. But my newer HDX Kindle is seen up side down to the distant viewer on the Kindle Fire HD. My view on the new HDX unit is correct. I am only seen reversed to another Kindle. I also find that I have no problem Kindle HDX to a PC. I have correct picture at both locations. I called Amazon with the help button, but they had no answer to correct this problem. I am not able to just roll my tablet physically because the Kindle knows it is now turned upside down and it rolls the picture upside down again to correct what I did. So at this point, I might not use my newest Kindle for SKYPE.

  • Picture turns upside down after being taken

    What could cause my phone to turn my pictures upside down after it is taken? As I am taking the photo it is the correct way but when it transfers into my camera it rotates to be upside down.

    That seems to be a bit too fast if it continues to drain that quickly. That would be 20° drain each hour only giving you 5 hours of battery life. Give it some time before you make any real assessment, the battery indicator can act sort of funky at times. My indicator will stay on 100° for 15 minutes and then start to drain rather quickly until it evens out and gets to where it should be. From that point on, it will reduce at a normal rate.
    You can try resetting the iPad. Sometimes that cures hunky little software issues. Sometimes, restarting the iPad can return the gauge to a normal reading.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Upside down video on vado central

    Has anyone out there found a resolution to the upside down video after trying to create a video on Vado's software???
    I am at wit's end with this company's software and so-called upgrades. Try to fix one problem caused by their software and you just get another, maybe worse, problem.
    I followed Vado's directions exactly and got the Upside down video. Just read from another customer that there is no solution yet for this problem. And CL's tech, KokChoy is just confused and "guessing" his word at what could be a possible reason.

    my cam is showing my picture upside down.  I have ASUS LAPTOP K53E.

  • IMac iSight Camera Upside-Down?

    I just got a new iMac C2D 2.4GHz 24" and when I got to the screen where it asks to take a Snapshot to use as my Account Photo the image appeared upside down. I then figured it might work correctly in Photo Booth but it appears that it does not. When I open Photo Booth it shows my picture upside down.
    I downloaded iGlasses to see if rotating it would fix the problem and it does, but I'd rather not have to set that up and pay 10$ to correct something that shouldn't even be happening.
    Is there anything that I can do? Is there a setting I could change?

    Hi SkawtS
    Sound like the iSight may have been installed upside down at the factory???
    I would take it or send it back for a replacement right away... here's the link to [Contact Apple Support|http://www.apple.com/support/contact>

  • When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer, why do the pictures turn sideways or upside down (it's an HP windows computer)

    When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer (HP Windows) why does the picture turn out sideways or upside down?

    OK, here's the explanation.  When you take a picture, the iPhone knows what orientation it is in (portrait, landscape, etc.) and adds that information to the picture's EXIF data so it knows which side is up.  Apple devices can decode this information and show the picture right side up when it is viewed.  However, Windows computers cannot do this.  They are not capable of decoding the orientation information added by the iPhone, so they are displayed in a default orientation (which may not be right side up).
    This only happens on Windows machines, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, except use the rotation buttons in Windows picture view to orient the photo correctly.

  • Why is that when i take pictures with my new iphone 4s they look fine but when i download they to my computer or email them they are upside down? how do i fix this

    why is that when i take pictures with my new iphone 4s rotationally they look fine but when i try to download them onto my computer or email them to others they come out upside down or sideways. how can i fix it or is it an OS issue?

    I have iPad 2 and I am having same problem since I updated to iOS 5. All we can do it is rotate it from computer

  • Emailed pictures come out upside down from iphone 5? Help.

    I have a iphone5.  When I send pictures from the phone to other people or even my own email account the pictures come through upside down or sideways.  What am i doing wrong!  Would love to continue sending them from phone. 

    If this happens on Windows systems it is because the Windows Photo Viewer and Live Photo Gallery may ignore the EXIF orientation of the photos. This data tells the viewer which way is up.
    See here for discussion and details from Microsoft on how this may be fixed on Windows:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/windows-phot o-viewer-or-live-photo-gallery-does/a161c8da-c1ce-4347-a92e-724f9e535c15
    You can also avoid this problem by taking photos in landscape mode with the iPhone/iPad held with the Home button to the right. In portrait mode keep the Home button down.

  • I want to change my Whatsapp picture but most pictures turn out either upside down or sidewards; I even have auto rotation but it works on certain pictures only, what do I do?

    I turned auto rotation on and I want to change my profile picture on Whatsapp. On certain pictures they turn out correct, however on most of them, they turn out sidewards or even upside down. I want to calibrate my phone but it doesn't say anything in settings about calibrating it, what do I do?

    When they turn sidewards what I do is going to Photos, then Edit the specific photo I want as my Whatsapp profile and turn it 4 times. It will stay the same in Photos but when I go to Whatsapp and choose it, it doesn't turn sidewards this time.
    Hope this helps!

  • Why will the picture until the receiver upside down?

    Why will the picture until the receiver upside down?

    Here are links to four short MOV files showing the four orientations for the iPhone 4S. I had to upload them to DropBox for you as all of my available Cloud based mail programs choked on saving or sending these little video files.
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7584570/IMG_0061.MOV
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7584570/IMG_0062.MOV
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7584570/IMG_0063.MOV
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7584570/IMG_0064.MOV
    I usually record hockey games in Landscape mode with the Home Button of the iPhone on the left side with the screen facing me. That is the mov file IMG_0063.MOV
    Apple's QuickTime Player displays it correctly, while the VLC player, which ignores exif flags plays it upside down. So does the Plex Media streamer ignore the flag, so does the thunderbird mail app ignore the flag, and so on. Adobe looks at the exif flags so they get it right.
    My movies are of four Post It Notes, each one describing the location of the Home Button. Take a series of four pictures oriented like my test MOV files , then take 4 short MOV files of the same iPhone orientation. If the results are "misoriented" then the software you are using to look at them is ignoring the orientation flages.
    For more detail of this subject look at  http://www.impulseadventure.com/photo/exif-orientation.html
    JPEG Rotation and EXIF Orientation
    Digital Cameras with orientation sensors allow auto-rotation of portrait images. Unfortunately, support for this feature is not widespread or consistently applied.
    Digital Cameras with Orientation Sensors
    Many newer digital cameras (both dSLR and Point & Shoot digicams) have a built-in orientation sensor. Virtually all Canon and Nikon digital cameras have an orientation sensor. The output of this sensor is used to set the EXIF orientation flag in the image file's metatdata to reflect the positioning of the camera with respect to the ground. Canon calls their sensor the "Intelligent Orientation" sensor. It is presumably a 2-axis tilt sensor, allowing 4 possible orientations to be detected (shown in the left side of the diagram in the link above).

  • When I E-mail a picture it's upside down

    I send pictures from my camera that I took but the person receiving the pics get them upside down. What am I doing wrong?

    Hey Diane Harto the Woodcarver,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are trying to AirPrint, you can do it directly from the iOS device.
    AirPrint Basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found"
    Verify that the printer:
    Has power and is turned on. If it has power, turn the printer off and then on again to see if that resolves the issue.
    Is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the iOS device.
    Has the latest firmware version installed.
    Has paper with enough ink or toner installed.
    Is free of any errors displayed on the printer's control panel.
    If necessary, consult the printer documentation or contact the printer vendor for help with the above steps.Notes:
    AirPrint printers connected to the USB port of the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsules are not supported with AirPrint.
    Some Wi-Fi AirPrint printers can take several minutes to join a Wi-Fi network after being turned on. Ensure that the AirPrint printer is connected to the Wi-Fi network before attempting to print.
    Have a nice day,
