How to lock the orientation on the iPhone 3GS with iOS 4
We show you how to lock the orientation on your iPhone 3GS running iOS 4 to prevent accidental rotationsEnabling rotation lock on the iPhone 3GS
Published on Jul 6, 2010
The iPhone 3GS running iOS 4 can automatically switch between portrait and landscape orientations in many areas of the iOS interface.
This can be tremendously useful. For example, many people find that viewing Web pages is better in portrait mode, but typing a URL into the address bar is much easier in landscape mode.
There are many cases, however, when you'd rather have your iPhone stay in portrait mode even when it is tilted to the side. In these instances, you can easily lock your iPhone's orientation so it will no longer rotate.
Follow these simple steps to lock the orientation of your iPhone 3GS:
- From any screen, double-tap the home button
- Scroll as far left as you can on the multitasking dock
- The first symbol to the left will be a circular arrow
- Select this to either lock or unlock the orientation of your iPhone 3GS
That's it!

What does the lock with a nine in it mean on your computer?
The key containing a lock symbol with the number 9 in it is a "number lock key". It's usually displayed on the keyboard and is lighted when number lock or "num lock" is activated. When number lock is deactivated, your number pad becomes a direction pad containing arrow keys, page up/down keys, and home/end keys for cursor movement. This was before keyboards came with dedicated arrow keys. Many "old school" users still use the number pad for directional movement, however, there usually is no need with a dedicated arrow pad and mouse functions.
