It should not take very long. Up to thirty seconds tops depending on your Wi-Fi network.
Try rebooting your Wi-Fi router. Turn off the router for 30 seconds then turn it back on. After the router completes its startup routine and indicates a good connection to the internet start you iPad again and see if it will connect.
If you still have problems you might try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. Maybe one at your local coffee shop or library.

  • HT4859 how long does it take to backup your phone for the first time using icloud?

    I have never used Icloud before and now my phone wants to be resotred so I am trying to back everything up using Icloud it just dosent seem to be moving and it just continues to say estimated time ...

    Hello there jspin11,
    The amount of time that the iCloud backup will take depends on a few factors the 2 most important are the amount of data to be backed up, and the internet connection speed.
    I found a great resource for troubleshooting iCloud backups named iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992.
    General information
    iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
    Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
    You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
    iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
    Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
    Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
    SettingsiCloud Backup settings are controlled on a per-device basis from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    To view Storage & Backup settings:
    Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    Tap your device's name. From here you can:
    View the size of your backups and see the storage used by each app.
    Enable or disable Backup for each app.
    Delete Backups.
    Buy more storage.
    If you're out of iCloud Storage space, you can apply several solutions:
    Exclude Camera Roll and other large data from iCloud backups of your device by going to iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and choosing your device.
    Remove some of the larger files on your device, such as large audio or video files, from your Camera Roll in order make more space.
    Remove existing Backups.
    Purchase more storage.
    For more information about managing and using the Storage & Backup settings, see this article.
    If an issue persists and you are not able to resolve it using the methods discussed in this article, contact iCloud Support for additional assistance.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • HT4859 How long should it take to back up iphone for the first time with about 6 gigs?

    How long should it take to back up iphone for the first time with about 6 gigs?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

  • How long dose it take to chare a playbook for the first time?

    I just got a new PlayBook 16GB Wifi and wondering how long dose it take to charge? I didnt turn it on yet so im wondering. Also how will i know when charging is finished? Thanks!

    with the charger that came in the box it can take 10 hours depending how depleted the battery is. touch the battery icon and a drop down window will open that shows percentage of charge. use only the original charger or optional rapid charger. a little lightning bolt symbol across the battery indicates that it's charging.

  • HT4009 How long does it take for apple to return with the needed code for in app purchases.  We have a developer working through elance that states he submitted a finalized version last friday to apple and is still waiting to get the code back from Apple?

    We are being told by our elance developer that he is just waiting on apple to return the code for in app purchases with our app.  he says he had to submit a complete version before they would give it to him and that he did that last friday.  Needless to say i don;t beleive him.  Can anyone validate for me the process of getting the code installed into our app and how long it should really take.

    I'd say an average of one week, depending on backlog. Expect two if you are outside the US.
    The outage has caused some lingering effects that seem to be delaying things for some, however.
    Patience is key in all things when it comes to being a developer

    From the above link...
    For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • How long does it take for an iPod touch battery to die without even using it?

    Asking because my itouch 4g has been stuck on a black screen and not able to turn off when pressing the power button. It's been 24 hours since it happened to the ipod. I've left it unattended on my table during that time period to which i have checked a couple of times to just see where and if the battery went down at all. At first the battery didn't seem like it went down at all since last night but recently it looked like it went down a bit from nearly being all the way charged to half/almost under half battery now. I was just wondering approximately how long it usually takes for it to die all the way down? I figured 24 hours but it doesn't seem like that since it didn't at in the time period since yesterday evening and night.

    My iPod is back to working now. It took about 2 and a half days for the brain to drain and die. Thanks for the answer and help.

  • How long does it take for phone to work on the day of new billing cycle

    i was wondering because it just became the 12th where im at in california and i went over last month on my billing cycle how long does it take for the phone to work at the start of the new day?

    You would most likely need to talk to your carrier to get the answer to that. The carriers that I have used would charge for overages rather than dropping service for the remainder of the billing period but if your plan is different than that you would either need to talk to the carrier or provide more information on the carrier an the plan so someone here who has the same plan may help.

  • How long do I need to charge my phone for the first time?

    How long should I charge it before using? Anyone knows?

    Hi Virginia,
    It's probably best to just let it charge to 100%, however, if you needed to use it before it got to 100%, it won't hurt anything to do so.
    Cheers,

    If you've been using it connected to a computer, and transferring music across, that can drain battery life really fast, as the HD is being continually accessed. Just playing music shouldn't use it nearly as fast.

  • How long does it take to restore firmware.My phone has been in recovery for 3 hours now?

    How long does it take to restore firmware on iphone5.The phone is only 3 week old and has been in recovery mode for nearly 3 hours now?

    - No. That is too long. What does the status bar in iTunes say the iPod is doing?
    - Terminate the sync. Force close iTunes if necessary then reboot the computer. Also reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try again. If still problem come back with what the status bar says when it stopped.

  • Sick of interleaving - how long does DLM take

    Have had problems with a dishwasher tripping our electric over the past month and this has of course caused DLM to kick in any put interleave on line and limit my IP profile to always be below 60 mb.  My data rate is currently 57957 and hasn't increased for the past month steadily dropping from the 60mb ip cap last month when power cuts happened.  
    Before my connection was working great and my data rate was a lot closer to the Max data rate, currently it is at 57957, Max at 65760.  The Max data rate has been as high as 69000, still no increase in IP data rate. 
    The main thing though is interleaveing, I know that this is controlled by DLm and cannot be turned of directly, but as my IP profile seems to be stuck and steadily decreasing on every connection restart (which the hh5 seems to do on a whim sometimes)
    My line stats seem to be ok SNR 6.0\6.0
    Line attenuation 18.2
    Please can my IP profile be reset to remove my IP cap which would hopefully put me back on fastpath which I had been on for months and months till the power cuts

    same as mine https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/Poor-Service-from-BT-adamant-about-problem/...
    Please can a mod look at my connection just reset the IP profile please, there are no faults on my line!!!!!!!!!

    I feel this is the exact problem I've been having posted on here titled sick of interleaving - how long till DLM turns it off.
    Could you check if your 1st hop is around 12 ms (click start, run, cmd, enter, tracert www.BBC.co.uk) my guess would be interleaving has been put on your line too.
    If your router resets too many times (mine due to faulty dishwasher tripping electric)
    Once this is on it seems to take ages to reset back to normal.  Like you I have the hh5 and this will sometimes do a random disconnect (firmware bug or BT messing with connection?) I always see in my event log a cwmp login from bt which will then reboot the router.   
    Like you my attenuation is very short (18.2)  SNR At 6.2 but it seems because my hh5 sometimes just reboots connection ( usually around 2.20am going from event logs) that interleaving will never come off.  I have read that it takes 2 weeks constant connection for speeds to return to normal and interleaving to be turned off.
    Not happy about my connection for last month, after being very happy for months and months.  As soon as DLM has kicked can feel difference especially in pings more than raw speed for me.
    Will run down my contract and jump ship as soon as contract runs out if mine doesn't improve.
