HT2188 My phone will not go back to the home menu unless I power it off and then on! How can I fix this without apple care?

It started yesterday. I hot a itunes and plug screen - had those before - but then it went away. But...now I cannot get out of any application or window unless I have a message that says Dismiss Read. Is there a fix?

Work around until fixed. Tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > turn it ON > Tap new white button at bottom of screen. Tap Home.

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My Ipad has a message on the screenthat indicates that the unit has not been backed up for two weeks. When I press the OK icon nothing happens. I tried to shut the unit down and the red slider does not function.

A reset should help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo reappears, release both buttons and await restart.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

my newly bought i pad 4(4gs), ratina display, is not letting me doing anything. it is saying 'this ipad hasn't been backed up. backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wifi'. i have tried to powered off by pressing the top right hand button till the red slide comes up. but it is not sliding to the right. could anyone help me out??

Locked, refers to the device being plugged in with "slide to unlock" being displayed on the screen. To recap - your device will automatically back up to icloud when it is connected to power, the screen is locked, and it is connected to a wifi network.
-Wifi is required to limit impact on your data plan.
-Power is to ensure the device has sufficient power to perform the backup.
-Screen lock - to make sure the device is not in use - which could slow or stop the backup.
The initial backup may take some time. Plug it in to the wall before bed, and make sure it is connected to your wifi network. The backup SHOULD be completed when you wake up in the morning.
Hope this helps.

My ipad is hung with the dialogue box saying "this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to WiFi". Even after doing that, I am not able to do anything with the iPad - neither able to reboot nor able to get to the homescreen. The dialogue box doesn't go at all even after pressing OK a hundred times. I treid tacking the back up through itunes and through 3G conncetion but of no avail. Please help

I too have been having this issue since about 12/14. That is around the same time I got the Ipad for my kids. I am unsure if it is related. I have tried logging out of icloud/deleting it and trying again. Removing most of the apps to sync. I reset my router. All of the attempts have produced zero results. I will be anxiously watching this thread for some help. Good luck to you also

HT4972 Why does my apple Ipad have the message ipad not backed up, this ipad hasn't been backed up, backup happenwhen this ipad is plugged in,locked, and connected to wifi

my ipad is locked up and message says ipad not backed up, this ipad hasn't been backed up. Backups happenwhen this ipad is plugged in, locked and connected to WIFI. How do I back up

If you are stuck on that screen and can't get out of it, reboot the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Assuming that you have iCloud backups turned on .... go to Settings>iCloud>Storage and Backup>Backup Now.

My i pad hang on with information of icloud back up with informtion of "this ipad hasn't been backed up in three weeks. backups happen when this pad is plugged in, locked and connected to wifi" and doesn't close when press ok button and still hangon. I am not able to switched off also. How to remove popoup note and entering into ipad applications.

Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so and see if it reboots.

My iPad says, "iPad Not Backed Up." This iPad hasn't been backed up. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connect to WiFi." When I touch "OK," nothing happens. When I try to turn it off, this message remains, and I can't slide to power off. Right now, it is "frozen up" and useless.

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Error window will not go away, "iPad has not been backed up in 17 weeks, occurs when plugged in, locked and connected to wifi" how do I get this to go away?
