Rotate a UIViewController - iphone

I have a navigation view controller. When i select a tableview cell it push a new ViewController from UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait state.
Now if i Rotate the new ViewController Landscape mode and pop the new ViewController and go back the table view Navigation Controller main page then i can see that, NavigationController main page is its previous UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait mode and i can't see the downstair part of my tableView interface.
How i am gonna fixed this such a way that if i pop up the newViewController, the Main Navigation ViewController page will view such a way that achieve the Orientation mode of newViewController.
That mean's if the newViewController is in landscape mode than the main page will automatically landscape mode and if the newViewController is in Portrait mode then the main Navigation page will be automatically Portrait mode.
Any solution ????

Add the following in all your view controllers (in the navigation stack) implementation files.
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return YES;
}

Presenting a UIViewController when on landscape orientation

What is the best way to show a UIViewController only when the device is on landscape mode?
The modal view controller should present itself modally when the device is on landscape mode and should dismiss itself when going back to portrait.
Since - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation :(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation is only called once (and not for every UIViewController), how should the navigation controller be set up?
The method you're looking for is
- (void)willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)o duration:(NSTimeInterval)t;

View is not rotating

I am making a navigation based app and I need only portrait orientation except in a ZoomPictureViewController ( Zoom in, zoom out images) that supports all orientations.
I am presenting ZoomPictureViewController and returning YES in shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
return YES;
}
But I get no rotation. I know that shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation, willRotateToInterfaceOrientation, RotateToInterfaceOrientation are only get called on the current/visible view controller but this is not happening in my case. I have checked it via putting breakpoints and NSLog.
Are you using any type of Navigation Controller or a Tab View Controller? I've noticed that there are issues when rotating a UIView that's not the first or only view as a direct child of the main window.
So if your UIView is part of a Navigation Controller or a Tab View Controller, you'll also need to override shouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation on the Navigation Controller or Tab View Controller.
Also I here's an important gotcha in the Apple documentation that might explain the problem you are having.
Tab bar controllers support a portrait
orientation by default and do not
rotate to a landscape orientation
unless all of the root view
controllers support such an
orientation. When a device orientation
change occurs, the tab bar controller
queries its array of view controllers.
If any one of them does not support
the orientation, the tab bar
controller does not change its
orientation.

SplitViewController Portrait PopOver Issue

When I switch my iPAD to portrait mode the navigation bar buttons button appears correctly. Now If i choose a table row from popOver View and push a new screen for the master and detail view the navigation bar button disappears and wont appear until I rotate the device to Landscape and then back to Portrait. Does anyone have a idea how to fix this ?
Perhaps you are not setting the delegate in the UISplitViewController
self.delegate = secondViewController;

iphone navigation controller - transition between portrait and landscape view controllers

In my iphone app, i've two view controllers. First one is a portrait and second one is landscape.
When app is started, it will show the portrait view. On click of a button in portrait view, the view transitions to landscape view. Here, i'm using navigation controller.
If both the views are portrait, pushing the next view via navigation controller won't be a problem. How can I achieve transition between portrait and landscape views using nav controller.
Note that status bar is visible and nav bar is hidden.
I would suggest you to use the following instead of pushViewController
[self presentModalViewController:aController animated:YES];
This is the only solution i guess. If you are navigating further from the LandScape mode put the aController inside the UINavigationController and Present the NavController the same way as shown above.

Problems with Interface Orientation and UITabBarController

Quick problem:
I have an UITabBarController with 2 navigation controllers [lets call them Left and Right Controller]
On the default selected Left Controller I can push a new View Controller that detects interface orientation.
On the Right Controller I can push the same View Controller but it won't detect interface orientation, or for that matter, It won't even go into the shouldAutoRotateInterface method at all T___T
Haaalp!!
If it is of any relevance, the View Contoller that I'm pushing use the hidesBottomBarWhenPushed property.
Most likely this is your problem:
Tab bar controllers support a portrait
orientation by default and do not
rotate to a landscape orientation
unless all of the root view controllers support such an orientation.
When a device orientation
change occurs, the tab bar controller
queries its array of view controllers.
If any one of them does not support
the orientation, the tab bar
controller does not change its
orientation.
The solution is to override the following method on every view controller leading to your view:
- (BOOL) shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)orientation {
return YES;
}
For example, instead using the default UITabBarController in IB, replace it with your own subclass containing just the method above.
I'm a bit late to the party on this, but I ran into a problem with autorotation at startup for a tab bar app I wanted always to run in portrait.
The app's plist has the necessary settings to both start in and only allow portrait mode, and all my view controllers only allow portrait mode. Yet, when I started the app holding my iPhone in landscape, the app started in portrait, but then rotated to landscape!
Rather than subclass UITabBarController, I simply overrode UITabBarController's shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: method using a category on class UITabBarController. I included this code in my app delegate:
#implementation UITabBarController(UITabBarControllerCategory)
-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:
(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation
{
return (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait);
}
#end
Works beautifully, and is quite lightweight.
does your uitabbarcontroller implement the auto rotate? any child viewcontroller that wants to implement autorotate has to have its parent implement autorotate.
