Why does Screen Resolution NOT offer orientation option?

This HP OMEN gaming laptop is the first PC I've owned (out of maybe a dozen) that doesn't offer orientation options on the Screen Resolution screen. Even the "help" thinks it should be there. I've searched for hours by now, wanting to avoid having to ask what should be so simple. For a seperate issue, I updated my graphics driver approximately 7/05/15. That issue was successfully resolved, so I know the update "took". Can't find it in any of the Nvidia choices either. SO many programs presume it to be available, many have stopped offering it within the program settings. Ideas, please? Thank you.

I took out the modules in mkinitcpio.conf, took off all the kernel additions, and borrowed a monitor from a different computer in the house. Everything says this should work, so i figured the TV may be the problem. It is. I had the TV hooked up with my Nvidia card on the old machine, and it worked perfectly. It did add fan noise, so I wanted to be rid of it if possible.
With the new monitor, it works perfectly. lsmod shows the i915 module loaded. Hook it back up to the TV (which is DVI to HDMI), nothing. This is some other issue, I think, so I'm marking this one solved.
Note: The SVIDEO line was wrong; a re-read of the archwiki page on KMS showed me that the line needs to be formatted as follows:
The format is: video=<conn>:<xres>x<yres>[M][R][-<bpp>][@<refresh>]"["i"]"[m][eDd]
so the line should have been video=DVD-D:etc, rather than video=SVIDEO:etc
Quotation marks above aren't really there; I can't figure out how to get a square bracket i to work without them; the forum kicks me an error.

Why does my iPhone4S not change orientation to landscape when turned in messaging but does turn in other functions?

My iPhone 4S doesn't want to change orientation from portrait to landscape when turned - while in messaging.
It turns fine in other functions...??

What are these other apps? Because for some applications, landscape view is not possible, like calender.

ITunes will not open and tells me to use the "information" to open in 32 bit rather than 64. but the information pane does not offer that option ...

I am trying to open my iTune 10.4 on my mac mini which is running OS 10.6.8, and I get the message that I need to use the information pane to open in 32-bit rather than 64. But the information pane does not offer this option. I'm in a vicious circle of opening, getting this message, then having to close. Did this come about after the June update of iTunes? And if so, why haven't they fixed it? And what can I do? You'd think Apple would want be to be able to spend my money in their store ...

Try following steps and test one at a time:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

HP8610 does not offer the option to reverse print order

The HP8610 does not offer the option to reverse print order. I downloaded the HP8600 driver and was able to do this. Will the driver for the HP8610 be updated to include this anytime soon?

Apple also need to be told about such issues:

I've found that the Music Search function has been crippled in recent months - it no longer dynamically updates the list on the right as you enter letters.

Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option

Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option in I-tunes. I've tried using both a Mac Book and PC with newer and older versions of I-tunes.

It sounds like you are try to delete the songs by connecting the iPod to other than the computer from which the songs were synced. You can only delete songs synced to an an older iPod (pre iOS 5) by connecting the iPod to its syncing computer and unsync them.
If you want to change syncing computers see:

I have a new (from Apple) unlocked iPhone3gs. I cannot get the video recorder to work. When I take video I am not offered any options at the start or the end of filming. The screen freezes when I hit the red stop button. But that's it. I have to hit the home button to get out of that. And none of the v-recordings can be found on my phone anywhere.
Also I'm having trouble with Bluetooth. My Mac says it's paired with the phone, but the phone says not; even though It accepts the pairing code from the Mac. I'm getting very frustrated with these problems. I came on here to find the user manuel, but can only find the fingertip manuel and the product license manuel. Both of which I have in hard copy.
And the most annoying thing is the sound on the calls. I can hardly hear the caller.
Anyone got any helpful advice?
Thanks, Elizabeth

Robert or Elizabeth...
Sync media using iTunes, not Bluetooth.
When the screen freezes on the iPhone, try "resetting".
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
And this link is for the iPhone 3GS user guide > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS3.1_User_Guide.pdf

Serously doubt this is a "new" iPhone 3GS. More likely refurbished.

"Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
"is in the works?"
This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?

Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?

Don't understand your question - "manage storage"? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to connect to your computer? Are you trying to free up some storage space?
How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough space available.

Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.

The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.

HT4623 Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
To update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google do have app versions in the store
