Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

You appear to be asking two separate questions - how to "power on" a TouchPad, and how to "Activate" can be two different actions.

 

To power on:  Press and hold the small power button at the top corner (next to the volume up/down rocker switch).  If nothing appears on the screen after around 20 seconds, the battery may be dead.  If you have a charger for it, try plugging it in for a few hours.

 

If you get the device to turn on, and you are seeing the link to register it, you have a problem.  HP bought Palm Inc. many years ago and promptly ended the webOS program.  There is no official support for the device any more, and the servers do not exist that the link directs to.   😞
