How do I rotate a photo that is sideways?

Choose Rotate and select 90° or 270° depending on which way it needs to turn. Photos taken on phones often display sideways when EXIF orientation data is ignored by the viewing app.

What is the difference between rotating and flipping?

Rotating turns the image around its centre, so the content stays the same way round. Flipping mirrors it, which reverses text and makes the image a mirror of the original.

Does rotating reduce quality?

Rotating by 90°, 180° or 270° is lossless — the pixels are simply rearranged. Quality only changes if you save to a lossy format afterwards.
