My iPad2 is stuck with a popup that says "iCloud Backup"

My iPad2 is stuck with a popup with the title of iCloud Back up that states
"This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to WiFi" I click OK and nothing happens. I cannot power down the device either. I can't get away from the pop up to connect it to a new wifi connection because I'm on vacation and there is no apple support. Someone please help!?!?!
I'm out of ideas of what to do I appreciate any/all assistance. Thank you!!!!

See if you can quit all apps and then restart the iPad.
In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesn't work, reset the iPad.
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.
After restarting or resetting - - go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>iCloud Backup>On - then tap Back up Now to backup the iPad to iCloud.

TS4036 my ipad is locked with a box that says icloud backup. This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to WiFi. I can't get the ipad screen to unlock even if plugged in.

See above description

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.

My iPad is frozen with a message on the screen that says "iCloud backup is full" and it gives me the option of cancel or settings but will not go to either one or allow me to exit the message

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.
Data will not be affected.

It won't close when I click ok in the message box.
How do I get past this message and into my ipad?

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 appears, release both buttons and await restart.

Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

TS1538 My ipod 4th gen. is stuck on recovery mode, and it is stuck on the screen that says connect to itune. I tried plugging it to the computer with an undamaged cabel and bringing up itunes, but itunes or my computer isnt reconizing it.

My ipod 4th generation is stuck on recovery mode and is stuck on the screen that says to connect to the itunes store. I already tried using a non-damaged cable and connecting it to itunes, but the ipod is not showing up as a device on my computer or on itunes. I cant fix the recovery screen until i can coinnect it to itunes... so does someone have any suggestions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How to switch to a different app store? I am trying to update my apps but am getting a popup that says your account is not valid for use in the uS store. you must switch to the Canadian Store before purchasing. How do I do this? I can't find the place

I am trying to update my apps but keep getting a popup that says "Your Account is not valid for use in the US store. you must switch to the Canadian Store before purchasing." I can not find where to do this! Please help! Thank you!

[Apologies to pdesteele for this slight OT bit, but it's all relevant to your question, I think ]
We do have a place in the UK which we could use as an address, but for various reasons it gets a bit complex even though we still have a UK bank account. We moved to France when there were no iDevices and apps around, just bought the occasional music, so it wasn't a problem. Funny thing is I can't even download the free UK bank app because it's not available in the French store .
I'll live with the problem for now as we plan to move back to the UK in a year or so - we miss the weather .

You are trying to open a Pages 5 file with Pages '09.

You installed the Conduit spyware. To remove it, triple-click the following line of text to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Copy (command-C) the text to the Clipboard. Then select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar and paste (command-V) into the box that opens. A Finder window may open with a folder named "Conduit" selected. If so, delete the selected folder.
Select Go to Folder again and enter:
/Library
From the folder that opens, delete the following items, if they exist. You may be prompted for your login password.
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
Close the folder. Now select Go to Folder one more time and enter:
/Applications/Toolbars
Delete that item. Close the Finder windows you opened. Log out and log back in.

I have a MacBook Pro and I seem to have problems with my FaceTime. It want me to enter my apple ID, but when I do it comes up with a msg that says, "The server encountered an error processing registration. Try again later." What do I need to do?

I have a MacBook Pro and have problems using my Facetime. Last time I used it without problems. Now I am trying to use it, and it is asking that I enter my Apple ID. When doing so, it comes up with a message that says, "The server encountered an error processing registrion. Try again later." What does this mean, and how do I fix it? Thanks.
