hey whats up all.. so I have this huge problem. I cant get maya to rotate around an object in my perspective window because it is locked.. The zoom and the pan work fine but as you can see in the screenshot the border of the perspective window is green and when I go to rotate it the green goes to grey then after I release it turns back to green. No I dont have it so its locked on orthgraphic mode and no the rotate in the channels box is not greyed. I am stuck. I even re-installed it back to 4.0 and deleted the regestry files.. or the ones that I saw at least. I get the same thing. Im screwed I need to be able to use maya on this computer and without the rotate its impossible. any help would be awesome.

Is your camera set to "orthographic" for some reason? An orthographic camera cannot rotate, only pan and zoom.
To see, select the camera and open the Attribute Editor. Open the option "Orthographic Views" and make sure "orthographic" is unchecked.
You can tumble orthographic views in fact just choose the checkbox next to in any viewport menu
view->camera tools->tumble tool and uncheck locked under orthographic views!
