Start iPad application both in landscape and portrait mode - cocoa-touch

Right now when I start my iPad application, if I'm turning my device in landscape mode then my rootConroller automatically turns my table from portrait to landscape mode. The problem is that it does so by animating the transition. Instead I would like the app to start in landscape mode right away. I've also created an image called Default-Landscape.png which is ignored, so I suspect I have to tweak something in the plist file?

Set your orientation to UISupportedInterfaceOrientations in the Info.plist file

lock a view to launch initially in landscape (ONLY landscape) objective-C

I want to initially launch one of the View controllers in JUST landscape mode, while the other views and the whole app can work in both portrait and landscape. How can I do it in iOS 7? Thank you.
So your whole app may supports all orientations but one view controller needs to be landscape only.
You can easily stop your landscape view controller to rotate from landscape to portrait but when the app is in portrait already then it is difficult to force the deivce to rotate as this contradicts the iPhone manufacturers priciple.
In fact, it is not really difficult when you know the trick. See my answer to this similar question.

You can change it and make it run only in portrait in your package.appxmanifest file.
But please do note, this won't work on the emulator, or any other device without a hardware accelerometer.

xCode: setView always portrait though device in Landscape

I have encountered a problem developing an iPad app with xCode.
When I load a view into my rootViewController like this
[self setView:viewController.view];
The view is always displayed in Portrait even though the device is rotated to landscape.
I checked all options and tried changing the shouldAutoRotateToOrientation method and it seems to have nothing to do with it.
If I rotate the device to portrait and then back to landscape it works.
Does anybody know why this is happening?
Best regards,
Matteo
The problem was that I was nesting viewControllers which leads to bad behavior like rotation notifications not being sent to certain ViewControllers.

iOS app starts in landscape mode

I have a strange problem. My app keeps starting in landscape mode. If I open it in simulator it rotates to landscape mode automatically. When I start it on iPhone it firstly starts in landscape mode and then shortly after it rotates to correct position. I have set "Initial interface orientation" in .plist to portrait, but that changed nothing.
I had the same problem. If you go to your Supported Interface Orientations you'll see
Item 0 ...
Item 1 ...
And so on.
If you edit this list so that Portrait (bottom home button) is the first item in the list then your app will open in portrait mode. You can still support other orientations as items 1 thru 3.
go to your supported device orientations and check if you have portrait mode selected
if you only support Landscape, write code
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(interfaceOrientation);
}
it work for me.
In XCode 6.4, I just unchecked all 4 of the device orientations and reselected them starting with portrait in the Deployment Info for the Target app. Apparently the order that they are checked here controls the order of the values in the plist file.

iPad application always opens in portrait mode

The app uses a UISplitView and it always opens in portrait mode. If the iPad is held horizontally it will open in portrait mode and then rotate to landscape. I'd like it to just open up in landscape mode without needing to rotate. Any ideas>
In Info.plist, set UIInterfaceOrientation to UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight (or Left). See the Information Property List Key Reference for more details including how to have different orientations for iPhone versus iPad.
