Hello to all,
My have gifted me a cool new Apple ipad. I am having this problem from last night. I regularly take back up of my ipad. Last night when taking backup of my ipad, I found that it is taking long time to do this. I don't know whether sync is slow or if the backup is slow. I never had same type of problem with ipad. I don't know why ipad backup takes long time. Please help me to fix this problem.

Have you tried to restart your ipad? If not, then you have to restart you ripad to get rid out of this problem. To restart iPad, first turn iPad off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPad will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPad on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

From your information it seems that you have save lot's of data on your apple ipad and that's why you are getting long time for taking backup of your ipad. If your ipad more data then it obviously takes long time to backup. There is no need to worry about it. It is the normal problem. Just regularly take back up of ipad.
