  Please don’t send me to the FAQ that says that Apple has a problem. It is old and doesn’t help anyone as far as I can tell. I shoot with a Flip cam in proper upright orientation, I upload via either a MacBook Pro or iPad to the Media Library and can ”View” them in proper orientation there. Why then, when I insert them into blogs do they rotate 90 degrees and make us look like idiots?

  I am with my Niece Julia volunteering at Kopila Valley Children’s Home and School in a remote part of Nepal. It takes about 5 hours to upload a 1-3 minute video on a good night. You can’t image the frustration morning brings when we publish something we worked half the night on and the videos are all rotated. It doesn’t happen all the time, and nothing we do seems to be able to fix it.

  Please help! You can also email me at (email visible only to moderators and staff)
