Hello,


You will need to call Apple for assistance.

This happened to me. My solution was removing the SIM card. I didn't even know I had a SIM card, I had only ever used it with WiFi. I popped the SIM holder with a paper clip end and just removed the old SIM card. Nothing else worked, including a frustrating call with Apple Support. "Activation" was failing via WiFi (server error) and via iTunes (connection to device error). I thought I was screwed until I removed the SIM card.
