"iCloud Backup" message won't go away & locks the screen.

My ipad has a box that pops up and says "iCloud Backup This ipad has not been backed up for 2 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in,locked and connected to Wi-Fi." I repeatedly hit the OK button, but the box still remains. I can't get into any other screen. Please help! Your advice is much appreciated.

Try a reset:



1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds



2. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)

I have this issue going on with my iPad. It asks for my password. I enter it and it doesn't recognize it. I checked on the appleid.apple site to make sure it was right and it is. What gives? I've done the reset suggested here twice and made sure to hold it for 10+ seconds until I get the apple icon.


Any suggestions would be great!
