A friends new IPAD is stuck on the following message;
iPad not backed up/ this IPAD hasn't been backed up./backups happen when this IPAD is plugged in, locked, and connected to WiFi.
When I tap OK, nothing happens. The iPad is charged and on WiFi. There is no computer to plug it into for backing up. I cannot turn it off. The same message appears on the "slide to power off" screen.
iPad 2, iOS 6
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.
