OKay, this is probably pretty noob, but I couldn't find how to solve it.
I dragged an iPad UIViewController to the storyboard and enabled the orientation to YES. But for some reason that view is not rotating. The status bar at the top is rotating but the view, tableview and labels inside are not rotating when you rotate the iPad. Anyone know why and how to fix it?
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOr‌​ientation { return YES; }
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) {
//return (interfaceOrientation != UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
if ((interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) || (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight)) {
//implement your code
return (interfaceOrientation != UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
} else {
return YES;
}
}
I think it will be helpful to you.
The status bar rotating might mean that some modal segue was not dismissed properly just check. Also if its in a navigation controller make sure all views in the stack has been set to return YES.

I know this is the most commonly asked question and trust me I have tried every kind of combination to make this happen and went through most posts here on stack overflow.
I have a UINavigationController called v1ViewController and what I am trying to do is when it is shown to the user I just want it to either show in portrait or portrait-up-side-down modes, no landscape even if the user rotates the device in landscape it shouldn't do anything.
NOTE: I did highlight all options in Xcode for supported interface orientations as in one of my other view controller I need to show user something in both landscape and portrait modes but for this UINav Conrtoller I want it to just remain in portrait modes.
The code I have for iOS 5.0 work just fine without a problem.
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait)
{
return YES;
}
else if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown)
{
return YES;
}
else
{
return NO;
}
}
the headache I have is with iOS 6. No matter what I try and do it still lets the user rotate the bloody thing in landscape (see code and screenshots)

You need to ensure you override the base UINavigationController and assign a custom class to it(not just the viewController that is the subview for the UINavController..ie the view contained below the navigationBar). Inside the UINavigationController, return NO on shouldAutoRotate.
So I have a view that I present modally when the interface orientation changes to landscape. However when the orientation returns to portrait and the modal view dismisses itself, the tableview from the initial view remains in landscape orientation (this table view must be only in portrait orientation)
Here is the code :
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return ((interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait) || (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) || (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight) );
}
- (void)willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration
{
if ((toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) || (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight)) {
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"showCatChart" sender:self];
}
if (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait) {
[self refreshTableView];
}
}
I tried to refresh the tableview but that doesn't make it portrait again ...
this could be from the view hierachy ...
NavigationController->tableView (only portrait)->tableview->landscapeViewModalController
With iOS 6, you need to implement the following:
- (BOOL)shouldAutoRotate {
return YES;
}
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations {
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAll;
}
In your AppDelegate, you need to change the following:
[self.window addSubview:viewController.view];
to
[self.window setRootViewController:viewController];
Also, keep your current code if you want to support previous versions of iOS.
Use the following in appdelegate.
[self.window addsubview:viewcontroller];
This alone will solve your orientation problem.
Hello i want to support portrait, home button up and down in my application how can i do that?
i go to my project settings check those two
and i add the code below
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(interfaceOrientation);
}
I also tried
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait || interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
}
but none seems to work
any help
Try this
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation{
if((interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait) || (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown)){
return YES;
}
return NO;
}
If it still doesn't work, you can try this (just for the sake of testing)
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation{
return YES;
}
if this doesn't work, either you are not messing with the right view controller, or the parent/root view controller has rotation disabled (returning NO in shouldAutoRotate method of the rootVC)
if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait) {
return NO;
} else if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown) {
return NO;
} else if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft) {
NSLog(#"Landscape left detected!");
return NO;
} else if (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight) {
NSLog(#"Landscape right detected!");
return YES;
}
I am trying to implement an iPad app having landscape mode only. I set the Supported interface orientations as Landscape right mode in info.plist. WHen the application is started, the view is in Landscape mode itself. But when i added another view, such as Home view, after login, view is not rotated as landscape. It was in portrait mode. In the xib file also, i set it as landscape. I have included the above code in both Login and Home view controller.
But the home view is not rotating after login.
First you dont have to write checks for each and every orientation. You can achieve this by simply using the following code in your viewController's shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation method
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
Second can you provide more details on how actually you are adding more views. It will be more helpful to find the problem.
do this in each view controller
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft || interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight)
}
I have a tabbar app, with some uinavigationcontrollers.
In every VC i have:
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait);
}
But for some reason when rotating the screen the status bar rotates, but the rest of my view stays the same. How can I fix this?
Try adding this to your info.plist
shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: would normally be implemented like this (for an iPhone app that supports rotation):
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
return (interfaceOrientation != UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
}
It's not clear from your question whether you want the subviews to rotate or the status bar to not rotate.
