I'm using Autocad LT 2012 and ortho is only working vertical. Circles appear as straight lines and arcs won't draw at all. I have no idea what's going on. If I copy an object or text from another drawing, it pastes as a straight line. I also can't rotate anything except vertically. Any ideas??

Try resetting your UCS to plan view.

THANK YOU! I reset the UCS to view and bingo! I must've somehow accidentally changed it in the middle of drawing somehow but I have no idea what I did. This happened the other day in a different drawing and I was so frustrated.

Do UCS W PLAN this will reset the drawing plane to the default setting of flat and Z vertical in real world co-ordinates. Just doing PLAN will set the drawing plane to the current ucs and you may have problems later on if half the drawing is on one plane v's another. Setting ucs to 3d objects can do weird things when you measure in another UCS.
