4) if i didnt fixed the orientation , then i can see the all ogre entities

5) my doubt so i need to follow any steps to upgrade from ogre 1.7.4 to ogre 1.8 and , do i need to add the auto orientation methods in the ogre . Please help me, not getting any information . It is urgent for us

The method for changing orientation changed between Ogre 1.7 and 1.8. On 1.8 all you need to do is set the valid orientations in your Info.plist. The crash is due to the orientation setting being in the ogre.cfg file and 1.8 doesn't recognize it. Just remove the setting and you should be fine.

It will be on the device. That's an Ogre config for a desktop system ("OpenGL Rendering SubSystem")
