TS4036 iPad issue: "This iPad hasn't been backed up in 12 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi." Nothing happens when I press "OK" - the iPad is locked.
The following message appears on my iPad screen "This iPad hasn't been backed up in 12 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi." Nothing happens when I press "OK" - the iPad is locked. I can't use the "slide" feature to "unlock" the iPad either. What should I do?
The iPad is connected to my laptop, so please send me instructions I can follow up on by using my MacBook Pro. Cheers!
p.s. I don't know what iOS system I'm on and I can't access it since my iPad is locked. This is an iPad and not an iPad2.
A reset should help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button for approximately 10-15, Seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. Release both buttons and await restart.

My ipad won't open anything. I get the message: This ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wifi. This device has beern plugged in and has 62% power. I can't access any buttons including the ok under the icloud backup message.
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 "stuck on the above mentioned message! I hit ok, but nothing happens!! I can even turn it off... or use it!!!! What do I need to do????
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. -
Hi, I have a problem with my ipad, it has this message on the screen and will not allow me to do anything at all not even swipe to open. It's very frustrating to say the least, can anyone help me with step by step instructions.
Not backing up should not restrict you from using the iPad (if it did, there would be a lot of people in trouble)
Try restarting the iPad, holding both the home and power button down until you see the Apple Logo and then try to log in. -
i can't enter my iphone. please help me!
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. -
Hi on my IPad Desk top I have the following message:
"This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks> Backups happen when the iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to Wi-Fi. When I tap Ok nothing happens.
The slide to unlock doesn't work wither. Can you help, please?Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?
Just FYI, this is the iPhone forum. -
my iPad is stuck with a small blue screen saying iCloud Backup, this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks.Backups blah blah… Click OK. I can't get it off the screen and I can't use the iPad because of it. Can anyone out there help?
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). -
this phone hasnt been backed up in 7 weeks, backups happenn when this iphone isplugged in, locked and connected to wifi, what does this mean
That means that your backups are done to iCloud overnight. The phone must be left plugged in and wifi turned on.
If you are shutting your phone off at night - this is the reason for backups not being done. -
My ipad looks like been blocked. what should I do? My ipad said.
"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.

Steve
