Can't activate battlefield 3

So a long time ago I bought battlefield 3 when it was on sale in humble bundle and I used the code to activate it on my origin account so whenever i log in to origin i could see the game in the list of my games but i never downloaded it 

Yesterday I downloaded the game for the first time and when I press play it says 

We could not Activate Battlefield 3 with the used Origin-Account. Search patiently for the product key and try to activate it on this pc with your origin account.

[enter productkey]

If you have done this before, you should login with the account in which you have it activated

You are logged in as:

> Login as Different User

> Buy this game

So the logged in as field is empty and when i try to say login in as different user a problem happens and says check ur internet connection

battlefield 3

    Since it sounds like this is in fact the Origin account under which you redeemed the humble bundle code I suggest that you speak with a game advisor who can see exactly what is going on with your account and provide a fix as well.

    You can contact a Game Advisor by following these steps:
    1 Click on the following link: https://help.ea.com/contact-us
    2 Make sure you are flogged in (top right corner)
    3 Click on the blue button "Contact a Game Advisor"
    4 Enter the name of your game or product (or "Origin" for account-related issues) and click "Find Solutions"
    5 Select the type of issue and the platform you play on, and click on "Find Solutions".
    6 Click on the blue button "I still need help" if the FAQ articles do not apply to your situation.
    7 Select a contact option. Note that you may get different contact options depending on your country.

    I recommend that you use the telephone option and the “call me” option so you don't have to stay on hold for a long time (call back feature available to North America only).
