What is your main problem? It won't boot normally or the Apple ID you are trying to use for the reinstall isn't being accepted?
Have you tried reinstalling using Internet Recovery? Try booting into Internet Recovery (command - option/alt - R on a restart). It is a slow process. This will install the newest OS that the computer is compatible with. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Quit Disk Utility. Then install the OS. When the computer restarts, you can use Setup Assistant to restore your data from Time Machine.
