My iPad has a box headed "iPad Not Backed Up" and goes on to say it should be connected to WiFi but the screen is completely locked and I can't get any response so can't get Settings, camera or anything else.

iPad Not Backed Up

This iPad hasn't been backed up. Backup happens when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to Wi-Fi

OK

No matter how many times I tap OK I cannot get rid of the box and the screen is completely locked and won't let me access anything.
