Double tap your home button to pull up your app switcher. Then swipe once to
the right to get to page two of the app switcher. At the bottom left hand
corner you should hear Rotation Lock. If it says unlocked, double tap it so
it will say Portrait Locked. Then simply dismiss your app switcher.

Subject: How Do You Force "Portrait Mode?"
I'm curious as how to force my iPhone 5 into "Portrait Mode." Often, when
in the Messages app, the phone will switch to "Landscape Mode" seemingly on
its' own. I can't identify any consistent set of steps that cause this;
only that I can be trying to find a button only to find that's in a
completely unexpected position on the screen. Yes, VO announces the mode
change, but I still find it ever so aggravating. Can anybody offer any
suggestions?
Another thing, when I want to delete a message I haven't been able to find a
consistent, straight-forward set of steps to get this accomplished. When
I'm in the Phone app and have "Recents" selected, all I need do is activate
"Edit", then locate the "Delete" buttons per call item or activate the
"Clear Button" to get rid of everything. In the Message app, I "activate" a
specific message and VO tells me to "Swipe up or down" to select a desired
action; but often when I do this I get "No header found" instead. Can
anybody tell me what's going on here?
Is there a similar "Clear" procedure in the Message app?

- "`There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I
have not profited, I dare say,' returned the nephew. `Christmas among the
rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has
come round -- apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin,
if anything belonging to it can be apart from that -- as a good time; a
kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the
long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open
their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they
really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of
creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never
put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me
good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!'"
