This is because as you mention your view has been added directly to the UIWindow, therefore when the method to rotate is called for the navigation controller nothing happens to the uiview. The UIView would rotate if it was a subview of the view controller view. If for some reason this cannot be done. Then you could override this method:

// This method is called every time the device changes orientation
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
// Return YES for supported orientations
}

And every time your orientation changes also change your view orientation.
