I have an iCloud message coming up on my iPad screen. It is blocking me from using my iPad!
The message says...iCloud backup, this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backups happen when the iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to wifi.
I don't know wether doing that will make the sign go away and allow me to use my iPad, but I don't know what it means by plugged in, does that just mean put on charge? As I have done that.
When I click cancel on the message it won't cancel and won't allow to press anything on my iPad home page, is there a way to restart the iPad?
Thanks
To reboot the ipad, press the home and power buttons together and keep pressing until the device shuts down.
Then power up again.
By "iPad is plugged in" they mean to do a backup you must have it plugged into a power source - but that's not true, if the device has enough battery power remaining.

I have a game but it only for one apple id and one divece but someone i dont know id play that game and using my apple id and i want to know if u can block them from using ur apple id and also erase all the games they downlode with the apple id
There probably is, but it requires that you be able to use punctuation and write in sentences so that we can understand exactly what you want.
You can block others from using your Apple ID by changing your password. There is no way to erase what was already downloaded on to someone else's device, for obvious reasons, -

BfromazThere are no iCloud messages.
Are you referring to email, iMessages, or something else?

We are users like yourself, not "apple people". Frankly if it is difficult for someone to clearly communicate the issue there are having it is virtually impossible for any of us to offer relevant assistance. -
I have one Icloud account for my iPhone 6 plus and my ipad. I have no stoage left. So if I set up an Icloud account for the ipad it will have its own storage then I can take it off and open up some storage on my phone.
In case you're not clear - iPad/iPhone storage, and iCloud storage, are totally separate. Buying more iCloud storage does not give you more storage space on your device. Your device has a fixed storage space for apps and data (e.g., 16GB - which is more like 12GB in real terms). iCloud storage just allows you to store more documents, mail, photos, etc, in the cloud.

I have an icloud message that i can't get rid of.
I have an iphone 4, today a message popped up saying that I have not backed up my phone in 4 weeks. The message is now stuck on the front of my phone and I can't get into my phone to use it or back it up.
I still receive e-mails and messages - just can't read them
I am not able to turn my phone off by holding the top button. The message on the screen seems to be interferring with that.
Any suggestions?
JeffTry resetting your phone by holding the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then releasing.

I do not know how to back up my ipad to icloud. How do you do it
Use iTunes. If you connect to your computer, open iTunes, select your device, then check the box to backup to either iCloud or your computer. Then either click Backup Now button or sync with iTunes.

I have had an iPad for a yeAr now and recently purchased an iPhone 5c for Christmas. The gentleman that activated my phone used an additional icloud ID because I couldn't remember the password for the icloud ID on my iPad. I would like my iPhone and my iPad to communicate with each other but I need to change the new iD on my phone and add the old iD to my phone but do not know how. Can anyone help me?
You can't merge Apple IDs. What you could do is set up your phone to use the same iCloud accout you are using on your Mac. To do this, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (Contacts, Calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. When everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Now add the iCloud account you set up on your Mac (with the same Apple ID) and turn syncing back on for Calendars, Contacts, etc. When prompted, you will probably want to choose merge, to merge the data on your phone with the existing data on this iCloud account.

I have lost my ipod touch is there any way i can get it deactivated from using wi-fi?
I have lost/had stolen my ipod touch,i believe i no who has it but have no proof to report this to the police, is there any way i can de-activate it through Apple to prevent it from being used by anyone else to upload itunes or use wi fi? This may sound like a stupid question but it is very frustrating knowing who may be benefiting from my I-pod thank you
No. There is not way to preveent anyone from restoreng the iPod and using it themselves or selling it. Apple will not help at all.
You should still report it to the police incase someone finds it and turns it in. Also change the passswords for all accouts used on the iPod.
