Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

Do a device reset as outlined below. This will clear the message and allow you to use your device again.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Hi, I am getting a warning message on screen, saying that my iPad hasn't been backed up for 2 weeks, and saying under what circumstances the message appears. My problem is, is that I have backed up iCloud, but am unable to remove the warning.

Hi,
I am getting a warning message on screen, saying that myiPad hasn't been backed up to iCloud for two weeks, and advising under what circumstances the message appears. My problem is, is that I have backed it up, but am unable to remove the message, and whilst the message is there, the iPad is frozen, and I cannot do anything.
Has any other user had such a problem, and if so, how did they rectify it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Try this.
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

TS4036 My iPad states that "This iPad hasn't been backed up in 3 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. I cannot turn off my iPad, click on the "OK" button and the message doesn't disappear.

How do I get my iPad to back up when I can't get the alert off my screen, can't turn it off ?

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My ipad is locked up and will not even turn off. Message says, "This Ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks. Backups happen with this Ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. Ipad is charged and on WiFi and is totally locked up

My Ipad is totally locked up and will not turn off. What is the problemo?

Give it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. It should reboot and be fine.

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.

What do you do when your iPad freezes up. The message "iCloud Backup appears and reads "This iPad hasn't been backed uo in 6 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to Wi-Fi." Each night I plug my iPad in to recharge.

What do yoou do when your iPad freezes up. My iPad is plugged in each night and is connected to Wi-Fi. This morning the following message appears:
iCloud Backup
"This iPad hasn't been backed up in 6 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
I press OK and it does not budge. I try to power off. The red arrow appears but it does not slide to power off. The iPad has simply frozen on the home page.

Try resetting it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then releasing. You won't lose any data by doing this.

I too have been having this issue since about 12/14. That is around the same time I got the Ipad for my kids. I am unsure if it is related. I have tried logging out of icloud/deleting it and trying again. Removing most of the apps to sync. I reset my router. All of the attempts have produced zero results. I will be anxiously watching this thread for some help. Good luck to you also

Go to Settings, iCloud, and then Storage and Backup. You will then see a button to backup your iPad. It may be that you have much stuff (i.e. photos, apps) for it to do a full backup but you will be able to tell what the estimated backup should be and what it will consist of so that you can choose to prune down items. If you don't want to backup and get rid of the messages you can just turn backup off from this area as well.
