Orientation in a UIView added to a UIWindow

by

You can read about some of the possible causes here:
Technical Q&A QA1688 – Why won’t my UIViewController rotate with the device?

In your situation its probably the fact that you are adding the view as another subview to the window. Only the first subview gets the rotation events. What you can do is add it as a subview of the first window subview.

UIWindow* window = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow;
if (!window) 
    window = [[UIApplication sharedApplication].windows objectAtIndex:0];
[[[window subviews] objectAtIndex:0] addSubview:myView];
