HT1766 My husbands iPad came up with a note saying it hasn't been backed up and needs to be connected to wifi but the iPad won't let him in. It appears o be frozen! What do we need to do?
Why won't my iPad turn off?
Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

The past two days my iPad mini has not been working with the wifi at my house. There is also and iPhone 5 and an iPad air that are working perfectly fine. I don't know what to do
Try forgetting the network, reboot your iPad and then try joining the network again.
Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Forget this network. 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.
Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap Join.
If that doesn't work, reset network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Reboot the iPad again. Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap join. -

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off" -

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. -
I have both a MacBook Pro and macair but the pro won't let me in I think it something to do with hard disc or permissions as it says system profiler in utilities , if anyone could help I'd be very grateful
Restart the MBP and immediately hold the option key down. Release the key when you see the Apple logo. The computer will boot and show you a screen with two hard drive icons.
Select Recovery and hit Return.
On the new screen, select Disk Utility and hit Return.
In DU do this:
In the list at the left, select the name of your hard drive. (Be sure to select the name that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
Click First Aid.
If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
Click Repair Disk.
When that is done, click Repair Permissions. Be patient!
When that is done, quit DU and restart in the usual way. -
The little grey camera icon ( IMovie) is not working or allowing me to open my photos. I have no problem inserting video. Just won't let me open my photos. Any ideas?

How do I restore the icloud backup for my Ipad if I never set up the "back up" in the first place? My Ipad is in a frozen state. I press the OK button but nothing happens. The message on the iPad is "iCloud Backup This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."

I just bought a brand new iPod touch yesterday, and I was trying to learn how to use it. I connected to my University's wifi, (and I know it works because my laptop is on it, and other friends have iPod touches who connect to it). I can connect to the wifi, but when I try to get onto the app. store or afari it says I am not connected. I need help what do I do? I have already restarted everything, and it did not work
You need to check to make sure you are actually connected to the network. Tap Settings > WiFi >and then tap the blue ">" next to the network name with checkmark. You should see a complete set of IP address but if the router didn't issue you an IP address properly, you will see your touch IP address start with 169.x. If this is the case, you are connected to the internal network but not to the web.
First thing to do (while you are on that screen) is tap "Forget Network". Then turn WiFi off. Turn it back on and, if needed, tap Other and re-enter your network information. If you continue to have problems, check with your IT department on Monday.
In the meantime, your laptop and iTunes can be used to purchase apps and music. Syncing them with your touch is a great way to get them installed while you are waiting for the answer on your WiFi problem. -
Of course, after he'd tried to reset it, I found the original password. But that now doesn't work and we can't reset the password. We can't even "find" the ID. We keep getting a timed out message, no matter what we try. Since he has no working Apple ID, I'm using mine to ask this question. Possibly relevant - he is NOT a big app user. I set up the account for him when he first got his iPhone a couple of years ago and he has only a few apps installed. So the card details may have expired but, of course, he can't update them either. He recently updated to the latest IOS (6.1.3) and it was when finishing the installation that he ran into the problems with forgetting his password.
Short of creating a new ID, does anyone have any bright ideas?Call Apple Care for your country and request help resetting the password.

How do I backup my ipad to icloud? I have been away for 3 weeks and I appear to be blocked until I plug in, lock and connect to wi-fi?
If it's frozen, reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.
