By default, iPad 2 is set to auto-rotate the screen. That is, when you change the position of the device, the screen automatically rotates. Fortunately, if it doesn't do it automatically, then this problem can be easily fixed.
Ipad 2
Owners of mobile devices like the iPad 2 know that their screen should automatically rotate based on their position. Thus, it turns out that if the mobile device is in landscape orientation, then the screen should be in the same orientation. Some may have various problems with this, for example, if the screen does not change depending on the position. If this is the case, then there is no need to worry and in vain to be nervous, such a problem can be very easily solved, unless, of course, it is hardware (that is, the trouble lies directly in the device itself).
Enabling (disabling) auto-rotate screen on iPad 2
First, you need to pay attention to the lock icon, which is located near the battery status of the iPad 2. If there is such an icon, it means that the auto-rotation of the screen is disabled (locked) in the device settings themselves. Disabling (enabling) the auto-rotate screen lock can be carried out either on the side panel of the mobile device, or directly in the multitasking menu. It depends on what function the sidebar performs (it can be set to either Mute or Orientation Lock).
In order to find out what function the sidebar performs, you need to go to "Settings" and select the "General" tab. Further, scrolling through the list, you can see the item "Sidebar switch" and see what it is responsible for. If the checkbox is checked under the item Lock orientation, then this panel will block auto-rotate. To solve an urgent problem, you need to set the value to "Mute".
If the problem is still not resolved, then you need to go to the multitasking menu by double-clicking on the "Home" button. After the corresponding menu opens, where there are several special buttons, each of which is responsible for a specific parameter. In the extreme left part of it you can see a special icon (an image of an arrow with a lock, or without a lock). To turn on auto-rotate, you just need to click on this image (respectively, to turn it off, too).
In most cases, such simple manipulations can solve the problem with auto-rotate the screen on the iPad 2. In all other situations, you need to contact a specialist who can diagnose the device and provide quality repairs (in case hardware faults are found).
