My monitor flashed and now my screen is upside
Hi FrankMaffie,
· Have to remind you to make changes on the computer before the show?
You must have accidentally hit Ctrl + Alt + left/right/down/arrow up and the screen swivels.
To make this work "shortcut keys" option should be enabled, otherwise it wouldn't work. Here's how you can enable or disable the "keys" on Windows XP.
a. right click somewhere on the desktop and choose "graphics properties."
(b) a window opens. There, you can press "Hot Keys" and enable or disable this option by checking or unchecking the checkbox.
You can also view the Microsoft Knowledge Base article for more information on keyboard shortcuts:
Keyboard shortcuts for Windows

List of keyboard shortcuts available in Windows XP

Hope this information helps.

Hi docatroppo,
I don't think it's a Firefox issue, but the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + Alt + [key]. CTRL + Alt + up should put your monitor in the right direction.
Hope this helps!

My Air iPad screen has locked and now the screen is black can not disable either help
HHelp my iPad locked up Air, tried to turn it off but nothing happened and now the screen is black, what should I do?
Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.
- Press and hold the sleep/wake button
- Press and hold the Home button
- Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.
Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings
If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.
Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.
As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo of iTunes on the screen of your device. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your device needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

If these steps do not work, contact Apple and ask for help.
