Hi Robert Hoper,

Wow this works. Thanks a lot. Never would have guessed to find portrait lock in the app switcher. I don't understand this switcher yet because I'm still reading and familiarizing myself with my new iphone, but the lock does work.
Best,
Paul.

If you have IOS 4 or later installed, then the portrait lock is found in the Ap switcher. When double-tapping the home button, the Ap switcher is activated. Although VoiceOver gives no initial clue of this, it is a multi-page screen. When you first land in the Ap switcher, you are on page 2 of this screen. Performing a three-finger swipe to the right will move you to page one, where, as mentioned, there is a button entitled "lock orientation changes". After activating this button with a double or split-tap, pressing home will exit the Ap switcher. In the status bar to the left of the clock, you will find an additional status item when your orientation is locked. Repeat these steps to unlock orientation and the status message will vanish from the top of the iPhone.
Cheers,
Robert Hooper

Hi Paul:
If you look back to the weekend's traffic and take a minute to sort threads, this was just explained on Saturday: Double tap the home button, then do a 3 finger swipe right and the phone will say "portrait lock" or something like that. Proceed acordingly.

Hi list,

How do you lock the iphone in portrait display mode, so that it does not landscape on you all the time if you move the phone? It is in the iphone manual, but I believe I need to do something different with voice over active, as the instruction found there gets me no where.
An ideas how to lock in portrait?
