It is very possible that the SO2 killed off the yeast. Other yeast issues include what was the age of the yeast. Was it past expiry date? Was the yeast rehydrated properly? Yeast should be rehydrated in 40 degree water, for 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes it should be stirred to break up any lumps. Then add some juice to double the volume, then wait 10 minutes, then double the volume again, wait ten minutes then double the volume gain, wait 10 minutes, then add to the juice. I would try reyeasting first. If not luck then you will need to remove some sulphur dioxide with hydrogen peroxide, which it a bit tricky. See how you go reyeasting, and perhaps go a double rate as well. If no luck then get back here and I can go through sulphur dioxide removal. Do you have any way to measure free sulphur dioxide? You might want to order some titretes from presque isle, they are probably the most practical way to go for the home winemaker.

Your juice is too cold for many yeast strains.... Try warming it to

I would agree with AJ, it is too much sulfite but not horribly so. I would warm it up in addition to adding yeast if you have some.
