HT1937 i tried to update to ios 7 and it would not work so i factory reset my phone and now it wont activate or show on itunes i have done recovery mode and reset again but it wont help

i tried to update my iphone to ios7 but then it would not work so i reset my phone to try and update and then it would not activate or show on itunes can anyone help?

I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Either get the Apple ID and password from him to activate the iPod
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
or have him remote remove the device from his account
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
or return it for a refund.

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

Call iTunes support and see if they will re-grant it back to you. Shouldn't be a problem, they have done it for quite a few people I know.

When getting new software it did something to my phone and now it wont work

i dowloaded 2.0 and then it restored my phone and then "We could not complete your iTunes store request an unknown error occured (-9838)" please help me

Keep trying. The update server is overloaded. You will eventually get through and your update will continue where it left off.
I got the error message about 12 times before it finally connected and continued.
