Two questions to the group...

My IPAD was working just perfectly last night, yet this morning it shown a padlock icon at the very top of the screen. I have a message in the middle that sez:

ICLOUD BACKUP, THIA IPAD HASN'T BEEN BACKED UO IN TWO WEEEKS...

press... OK

at the very bottom of the screen is a right pointing arrow with the words "SLIDE TO UNLOCK"

I press the "OK" BUTTON on the ICLOUD message... nothing. I try to slide the arrow at the bottom nothing... the screen appears to be locked hard.

is there a master reset to get out of a system crash/freeze

the who thing is locked up tight...

Number 2 question, how can you tell the model of your IPAD? do I have a IPAD2 or IPAD 3? How do I know?

appreciate any advice... I'm dead in the water...

chuck, KB7CG
