My iPad has a message on it saying: "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."
When I tap OK, nothing happens. The message doesn't disappear and I have no access to any of the other icons. I tried shutting down the iPad, but it won't even let me do that.
What do I do now?
Thank you!

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 am get this message on my Ipad and have followed the instructions, connect the Ipad, lock the screen and connected to a Wi-Fi connection - however I have done this but I still get the message on the screen.

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.

You be sure the iphone is plugged in, locked and connected to wifi. Then a backup will be attempted. Or, you can manually do a backup inside...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, turn on iCloud backup and tap the Manual button.

Locked on "iCloud Backup: This iPhone hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. . ."

"This ipad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi-fi.
What is my ipad's problem?

You need to make sure that you are connected to a WiFi network and have a good amount of battery power left, if not plug in a charger to be on the safe side. Once done go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Backup Now
This is basically your iPad giving you a gentle reminder to back it up.
