My Ipad won't let me do anything including backup to Icloud

The box comes on screen to backup with charger on and Ipad locked out and the OK bar, when I tap the OK bar nothig happens and I can do nothing but turn it on and off?

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • IPad won't let me do anything unless I sign into iCloud

    Generally I can get onto my iPad and play games, but now it won't let me do anything. A pop-up will come and say that I need to sign into iCloud. The password I have for it will not work though. I can't try to do anything unless I sign in. I will push "ok" on the pop-up and it'll come back a second later. How do I make it stop popping up?

    Put in the correct password.

  • Ipad won't turn on after trying to backup from ICloud

    I need help getting my Ipad to turn on after trying to restore from an ICloud backup. My Ipad is up to date on software. I went back to factory setting and that worked. Then when I tried to restore from an ICloud backup, it started the process and somehow got frozen in the process. After a few hours, I pressed the button athe the top and the home button simultaneously and turned it off. When I turned it back on all that comes on is a black screen with an apple in the middle of the screen with a bar below it that is only about a quarter complete. Please help me.

    It sounds like you need to restore your iPad and you will probably need recovery mode now.

    You could try resetting the iPad one more time, but I don't think it is going to work.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I have the iCloud backup screen up and it won't let me do anything.  It's stuck and I can't shut the ipad down or use the screen at all.

    The iCloud back up screen it on my ipad.  It won't let me do anything, turn it down or use any of the screen.  I have even tried to force shut it down but it won't let me use the screen at all.  I plugged it into my main computer to do a backup and it's still stuck.

    It's rude not to share your solution and then mark your answer as correct so that it may help others. So in case anybody else reads this ....

    That will get you out of that backup screen. There is a reason that screens shows up. You haven't backed up your iPad! Make sure you backup regularly!

  • How do I get iPad working?  Just says, "iPad is disabled"  It is telling my to connect to iTunes but how when it won't let me do anything?

    How do I get my iPad off of "Disabled"?  It is telling me to connect to iTunes but not sure how when it won't let me do anything on my iPad?

    When you connect to iTunes do you see the iPad in the sidebar and if you click on your iPad name do you see the summary tab on the right? If you do, click on the Restore button.
    If you see the iTunes logo and the USB cable on the iPad screen, you are in recovery mode. Read this for more information.

  • My iPad won't let me type and has a black square around and thing I touch

    my ipad won't let me type and has a blck square around anything I touch. Have done everything online so far...

    Your Users Guide has a whole chapter (at the end) devoted to what you do when things aren't going well, generally following the sequence of
    Restart - red slider, then boot up again
    Force Quit apps - either via Sleep/Wake followed by Home, or via Recents Tray
    Reset - hold Home & Sleep/Wake to force reboot
    Reset iPad Settings - Settings > General >Reset
    Erase All Content -   same as above
    Restore iPad Software - iTunes or iOS 5 equivalent
    You start at #1 and work your way through until the issue you're seeing goes away. If you get through all of the steps and it still doesn't work, you're pretty much out of gas and have to start talking to Apple.
    So, firs thing to try? Just power it down and then restart. If that fixes it, great; if not, move along and try the rest of the steps in order.

  • Windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone

    windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone..apple community doesn't list the iphone as a product registered under my apple id, but the phone is listed on my authorized devices.  any ideas? and do i need to get it to show as a registered product?

    I have the same problem. I can't sync any apps or music on my iphone. I can't sync any music purchased through itunes on my ipod. I haven't even tried connecting my ipad for fear that it'll mess that up as well. I try to authorize my macbook but I get an error. The weird thing is that I am able to still play all of my purchased music through itunes so it seems that the authorization is at least somehow partially recognized.

  • Itunes store won't let me buy anything, why?

    ok, i just got up the nerve to buy a $50 itunes card first time, now i feel like i was duped, it won't let me buy anything, i redeemed the points, look in the store and decided the first thing i wanted to get was the ipod touch upgrade, i click on it and it asks me for my apple id password, i enter it correctly click "Buy" and then asks me for the password again and this time instead of the button saying "buy" its says "billing info" now it now takes me to the page and all the info is right, im not using a card because i don't have one and i don't think i should need one because i have the itunes points which is clearly displayed beside my account name on the itunes program. now after i click done it just takes me back to the itunes store home page... so then i think maybe the update just isn't available at the moment, so then i look up the app "video safe" and try to buy it, same exactly thing happens, someone plzz help, im confused as to y i am not able to buy anything, i have the points, id like to use them
    Message was edited by: insightdesigns

    apple should really make that clear, thats the reason i bought the points for in the first place, to get apps and the update. man this *****, ok so pretty much if i don't have a credit card then im screwed right? i can't get the update or get apps unless they are free? are there app cards or something i can buy in order to buy them? kuz i can't get a credit card and i want to get this stuff, and if im not mistaken isn't this bad? its stopping ppl from spending money on this stuff, its cutting profit, if you could use it for all of it then im sure ppl would buy them alot more, kuz its "re-donk-u-less" that they don't have an easier way to get the stuff like apps and upgrades unless you hav a credit card. idk man, is apple going to change that anytimes soon?

I don't know what to do from here... I have money on my account but it still asks for billing info... i have no credit card to put down so what do i do?

    I have money on my account but it won't let me buy anything....
    Yes it will.
    In Canada, you cannot buy apps with iTunes gift certificates but you can buy music, tv shows and movies.
