I have an unknown icon on my Ipad mini.
The screen also says
Cannot Back Up
This ipad cannot back up to iCloud
without a verified email address
iPad, iOS 7
Tty a soft-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.
If that clears it then in Settings > iCloud does your account id show correctly ?
