I am doing a compass and I dont want my uiimageview rotate when the user rotate the device.
Is it possible to disable this?
Thanks you.
OK, it took me a while to work out what you actually wanted.
Your question would be better phrased something like...
I'm trying to make a compass app. Using an image as the compass. Can I keep it pointing in the same direction when the user rotates the device.
The answer to this is yes.
You need to look at using the CoreMotion framework.
JUST A QUICK NOTE
By doing this you are not "preventing it from rotating". You are actually rotating the image on the screen to give the illusion that it is not rotating.
In your app settings -> General -> Deployment Info:
Unmark what ever u want:

For some reason, when I run my app, the game is zoomed in in the ipad simulator. I have to use a scroll bar at the right in order to move the screen up or down. The only way I've managed to get the entire thing looking normal is to scale it to 75% but I want to keep it at 100%. Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can fix it?
I get the same. There's plenty of room for the simulator to not be zoomed, but it is, like so:
The best solution I've found is to got to Window -> Zoom All. I have this bound to a keyboard shortcut so I can quickly fix it, but I haven't been able to find a way to make it not open zoomed.
I need to disable the button, when i enter in the native camera, like portrait, and when i turn like landscape, i need to able the buttons again. How i can do?. In IOS.
Thanks so much.
Kind Regards.
It's probably easier rather than disabling the buttons (which could be confusing to a user), just to rotate the camera view into landscape when it's opened, and prevent any rotations to portrait. You've got a couple of options for that as well, which might make it easier to develop.
I have a quick question... I have googled it but have found nothing that can help me. I have a website I am creating and I do not want it to rotate in an ipad. Is there anyway to achieve this? I just want it to stay horizontal. Thanks in advance for any direction to this problem.
I don't think there will be, the rotation is based in the iPad's iOS. Maybe notify the user to switch on the rotation lock?
I'd like to fix my Camera View in Portrait Mode but I found NO solution till now...
Do YOU have one? Would make my day .__.'
You cannot explicitly restrict the UIImagePickerController to portrait mode, but you can customize the look of the camera's user interface, which may help you. This is the example code from Apple:

Another method of controlling the camera's look is mentioned in this question:
Camera with Custom View
I don't know exactly what your goal is, but one of these methods should help.
Is it a requirement for iPad apps to be able to rotate?
I am looking at a few apps, one example is http://squareup.com they only have one rotation, while others have rotation. What is the exact spec?
It's not required but I've seen apps butchered for it in reviews. I believe I saw that for the app Facepad.
You do not have to support rotation; however almost all apps do.
At least support 180° rotation. Preferably 360°, but this depends on the content your app shows. Fir example, Keynote offers only landscape \w 180° rotation because slideshows are always in landscape.
It's not a requirement, but how'd you like it if Safari didn't rotate? When designing a UI, imagine you are the user, the one you make the app for. How does the user like it? And make it like that.
It's highly recommended to. If you don't want to do the work of re-laying-out your interface from portrait to landscape or vice versa, you can at least support the 180-degree rotation of whatever orientation you do want to use: landscape-right if it's set up for landscape-left, or portrait-upside-down if it's set up for portrait. It's the user-friendly thing to do and really not complicated to implement.
I don't think GarageBand suffers for not supporting it. It's right for it to be case-by-case
