It would seem I am unable to rotate from landscape to vertical and vice versa on my iPad.

I am sure my settings should enable this but maybe I've overlooked something?

Thanks in dvance

You've probably the rotation lock on. It's the little switch on the side of the iPad next to the volume control.

Not by default in iOS 5, the switch is the mute button.

To change the rotation lock, double click the home button, swipe right, and press the unlock icon.

Oops Shows how long it is since I used the switch!

You can change the function of that button in the settings between mute and rotation lock.

Thanks everybody for your helpful tips.
