    It means that your screen rotation is locked. Open up the control center by sliding your finger up from the very bottom of the screen, and click on the screen rotation lock symbol, which is the same symbol you see on the status bar.

    Screen orientation lock.  Double click the home button to bring up the recent app bar.  Then finger swipe left-to-right to bring up the iPod controls.  The icon on the far left (circle with lock in it) is the orientation lock button - press it, and the lock will go away.

    I have the latest update and today a little lock with an arrow around it appeared, it means my screen is locked and will not rotate. Problem is I do not know how to turn it back on.

  • What is the box with the down arrow in email.

    What is the box with the down arrow in the email.  it is at the top near the reply arrow.

    OKAY....are you guys ready for the answer to this question: "What is the box with down arrow in it in my iPad email?".
    This drove me nuts but I stuck with until I figured it out.
    When you open a message in iPad, sometimes you'll see a box with a down arrow. Touch it...and your email disappears!!!
    Where does it go?
    Lay down your iPad and go to your computer...you CANNOT access the Archive folder from your iPad!
    1) Go check your gmail account from your computer. When you click on a message, look in the top row of 'choices' in what to do with that emai: back to inbox, ARCHIVE(a box with a down arrow), report spam, delete, move to, labels, and more are your choices.
    2) now look in the left hand column and you'll see: Inbox, starred, Important, Sent Mail, Drafts, Notes, Personal, Travel...now mouse over Travel (or whatever your last item is in the column) and "More" will appear.
    3) Click on 'More' and "All Mail" will appear.
    4) Click on "All Mail" and voila!!! All of those messages that have been disappearing from your iPad are found there.
    5) NOW FINALLY, you can click on each message in the "All Mail" folder and you have the option to move them to any folder you wish.
    6) UNDERSTAND THIS: You CANNOT access the 'All Mail' folder from your iPad...you MUST use your computer.
    Hope that helps all of you who were as frustrated as me.
    Ya think Apple would write something about this somewhere!!
