Initial Steps
Press down the ‘Alt + Command’ keys while clicking on the System Preference icon in your dock. While holding down the keys, click the ‘Displays’ icon on your dock. You might find the Rotation option in the Display window. Some users get the Rotation option by just clicking the Display option, but clicking both icons is best to be sure. If the Rotation function isn’t supported by your Mac, use your keyboard to force it. Some users have encountered a blank screen or display issues after this, but a simple shutdown and restart usually fix it. Another solution is to use ‘Shift + Command + Q’, then press ‘E’. If the Rotation option doesn’t appear, reboot your system and try again. To rotate an external screen, connect it and repeat the steps. If all fails, consider other ways to improve your display.

Confirm your choice or wait 15 seconds for automatic rotation. If there’s no Rotation option, your Mac might not support it natively.
