Cannot get into settings on ipad

I currently have an iphone 6 and an ipad 2 both running ios 8.0.2. I am having trouble with my ipad, i cannot get into the settings for icloud, messages, facetime, email, and a few other things. I have tried turning handoff off on my iphone. I do have a family icloud account set up. I have not had time to read up on the new settings of ios 8 so i am wondering if this is just how icloud is now? I let my kids play with the ipad a lot and i would rather them not be able to read/write to my contacts with my text, answer my calls etc.

Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Cannot get into settings to backup

I cannot get into mt settings area. I need to backup. It just flashes to blank screen then goes right back to home screen.

Double tap your home button to bring up the recently used apps. You'll see an app icon below and a page view above. Swipe the page view upwards with your finger to close your apps fully. Then tap the home button once and you'll be back to your home screen. Try to open settings now.

HT204053 I recently changed ny Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on.

I recently changed my Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The password for the new Apple ID does not work since the iCloud default user name is imbedded in the login box. The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on and re-occurs every few seconds.

You have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPad on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

TS3991 I have restored my mini i pad after it would not let me get in and I cannot get to the settings or general settings at all I cannot get into my i pad at all what do I need to do?

I was in the general settings on my ipad a couple of days ago and when I signed out and wanted to come back on i could not get into my pad at all I have changed the id and password three times and i still cannot get into the pad. Is the general setting keeping me out? I put the passcode in and I still cannot gaet in, is the passcode my password if so why can I not get in?

HT1174 On the opening screen of my ipad2 the itunes apple icon and the usb cord are displayed. What do I do to delete them? Do not tell ll me to download something, as I cannot get into the ipad

On the opening screen of my 1pad2 the itunes apple icon and usb cord are displayed. How do I delete them? Do NOT tell me to download anything, as I CANNOT GET INTO THE IPAD.

You can't get rid of those icons because that means that you MUST connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore the device. You have no choice. There is no way to remove that from the screen. Something went wrong on the iPad and you need to restore it now.

My iPad has been hacked I cannot get into hotmail through mail also I get the apple message ,incorrect password even though this is correct what can I do

From your description it sounds like your Hotmail account was compromised. Does anyone else know the password and could they have changed it?

Cannot get into iPad, it keeps wanting me to sign in using old email that does not exist, and for a password that she does not remember, so I am unable to change password. How do I get around this?

When I changed my Apple ID the ID did not change on my iCloud account. there appears to be no way to change the ID because I cannot get into account settings for iCloud

When I changed my Apple ID the ID did not change on my iCloud account. there appears to be no way to change the ID because I cannot get into account settings for iCloud

If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

My Ipad will not unlock. When I slide to unlock it speaks 'unlock key', if I touch the date it 'speaks the date', but I cannot get into the pad. Was working fine yesterday, any suggestions would be appreciated. Lisa

My Ipad will not unlock. When I 'slide to unlock it speaks 'unlock key', if I touch the date it 'speaks the date', when I turn it on is 'speaks the time', but I cannot get into this ipad at all. It was working correctly yesterday, any idea's would be appreciated.

Your iPad is likely stuck in in VoiceOver mode. Try triple-clicking the home button or connecting your iPad to iTunes on your computer. You can disable VoiceOver in iTunes from the iPad's summary page by scrolling down to the Options box and clicking on Configure Accessibility.
Good luck!
