I can't set up new iPhone X I'm trying to set up my new phone and whenever I put in the Apple ID it says it cannot connect to the Apple ID server. I also tried setting up with an iCloud backup and it says that it needs to connect to WiFi even though I'm already connected. Is there something wrong with my phone?

Setting up new phone Hello, I've recently purchased an iPhone X and have come to set it up except whenever I attempt to enter my Apple ID it says that the server isn't available. I've turned the phone off and on again but it doesn't seem to have helped. Is there anything I could do? Thanks, Charlie
