After working on this for the last few hours, I am exhausted and frustrated.
I'm trying to upgrade my dad's iPhone 4 from iOS 5 to the latest version of iOS 7. I was trying to do it from his PC at first, but between trying to get his computer to actually recognize his iPhone and error messages over and over, I just decided to do it from my MBP.
His Phone was backed up and already put into recovery mode because it got halfway through activation before being interrupted by an error. I connected via USB to my MBP and clicked restore... good news was that it did at least get upgraded to iOS 7, but now I'm getting the error in iTunes

Please try again later, or contact customer care.
and the same on his Phone as it tries to go through setup.
I'm seeing a bunch of people with this issue during the iOS 7 beta, but none recently. Anyone know a fix for this?
It says contact customer care but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to contact Apple or Verizon.
Thanks.
