Try Later in the Activation not complete window to

Activating Norton 360
To use all of the features in Norton 360, you must first
activate your product. Product activation reduces
software piracy and ensures that you have authentic
Symantec software. You can renew your subscription
after the end of your subscription period.
If you are connected to the Internet, product activation
takes place automatically when you start the product
for the first time after installation. During activation,
the Norton Account window appears. You can create
your Norton Account and register your product. You
can also view details, such as your Product Key and
recent updates to the product. If you skip the Norton
Account window, the product is activated, but the
Product Key is not saved in the Norton Account. You
can print the Product Key for the future, if you need
to reinstall your product.
If you did not activate your product during installation,
Norton 360 prompts for activation each time you start
the product. Also, you receive an activation alert
regularly until you activate the product.
w
You must activate your product within the time period
that the alert specifies, or your product stops working.
