You could do a cheeky update after it is live though. Happy Friday! Comments Hey buddy. Let's talk about the last 16! Seriously though. Something tells me Apple will not let you.

The app is locked to landscape only. So Miguel that should help you. Comments Yeah I just realized, my app had been approved yesterday that prevents portrait rotation.

Some iPhone apps I've done I've locked them but tend to try and allow rotation on iPad. Oh well. Comments There you go. Friday is for learning.

Benfica had it coming, Barcelona gave us everything, we missed like 7/8 made goals.... Ridiculous. First half seemed like we were playing against a end half of the table team... I have all my apps just for portrait, never had a problem. It's hard to have an image as background andar it look good both ways. How do you do it? Comments Hey.... Finale 16 ha ha ha....

Not photographs as such. You guys should have taken Barcelona, watched the highlights.

I used the same and it works Landscape only // UNCOMMENT THIS TO SUPPORT iOS 6 SCREEN ROTATAIONS mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape; if(canRotate){ mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscapeLeft; mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscapeRight; } Comments This code will work in that case.
