"updating icloud settings" will not stop

Just setting up new ipad pro and it appears to be stuck on the updating icloud settings.


It's been hours of on and off again. I don't even know how to power down to start over.

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

Hey jfromflagstaff,


I see that you're having some difficulty restoring your iPad Pro from an iCloud backup because it's stuck on updating the iCloud Settings. I'd like to help out.


Take a look at the steps under "Get help restoring from an iCloud backup" here: If iCloud Backup couldn’t be completed or you can’t restore This has some helpful steps like trying another network to ensure the restored files are successful.


You mentioned not knowing how to restart the device. Here's the steps to do that which may also help: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Cheers.
