Are you sure that the screen isn't locked? You do not see the padlock icon in the upper right corner?


If the screen isn't locked, reboot the iPad. Reboot 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.

Hello,

I have the same problem with the blocked screen orientation on my ipad3. Since yesterday, tried everything. Rebooting, hard rebootong, changing selection for my side button,....everything and still no change. Is it possible to have a hardware problem with the gyroscope or is it a software issue that apple should fix with atch or upgrade for ios?

Or maybe anyone has an idea to fix it?

Thanks guys!
