My iPad is locked up and shows a message saying " This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
This message window doesn't close when I press OK. I can't mover the startup slider bar, and when I try to do a system reboot, the slider bar for that doesn't move either. I am stumped on what to do to clear this up. Any suggestions?

Reset 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.

Thank you! I had the same question, couldn't figure it out for a few days and you helped me resolve it! Greatly appreciated!!!
You're welcome.
Thanks randers4,
This post if getting old, but I was referred to it. This works! My wife's iPad had this problem and she was very concerned. Looks like lots of other folks have seen this lockup. Must be some kind of bug in the IOS. My wife hadn't upgraded yet to IOS 6, so we did that immediately. Hope we won't see this again.
Hi there! Thanks so much for this post! Woke up this morning with the same backup message on my iPad. I've seen it before but its never locked up my screen. Simple solution. Thanks for letting everyone know about this!!!!!!!
Thanks for this post! It's a critical bug that Apple should fix immediately as it completely disables the iPad. Not an intuitive way to fix it either, but really glad I found this post!
This was a great help. Exact problem I have had for the past two weeks and no one seemed to know what to do. This works!
7 months later, bug not fixed.
Fortunately there is the support of the community!
THis is awesome! I had this error for a month and was about to take it into the Geek Squad at Best Buy! I would have paid for them to fix this! Thank you!!! Glad I decided to be resourceful and google it!
Thanks a million!
