Profile pane not working

Question: 

I am following the book word-for-word but have not been able to establish a profile node that has the panels panes as they should be. I have also followed the threads about other people having similar issues but they don't seem to be working for me. I have some questions:

1. I would like to know what the path would be if this was working properly. eg. is it mywebsite.com/node/username or is it something else?
2. I can get the "Personal Info" pane to show up at mywebsite.com/user/1 but it does not show the rest of the panes such as the avatar and so on. From other threads I don't think it should be at user/1 but I'm not sure.
3. I had tried to build a social network prior to finding Dorien's book so I'm wondering if some of the modules I installed are interfering with this setup. I have disabled the two I think might be interfering (advanced profile & author pane) but I'm not sure if this makes a difference.
4. I have tried to add the block with a button to get to my profile but it is not working. I get this message: "drupal/includes/common.inc(1641) : eval()'d code on line 7". I have checked the php I copied from the book SEVERAL times and can't see why this is happening. Is it related to the fact that I haven't been able to establish the profile node properly?

Sorry for the long post. I really hope someone can help me out before I go insane! Thanks.

1. For 1: For the profile path

For 1: For the profile path it should be /content/(username). That is if you clicked on "My Profile" block or View Profile from your account (/user/x).
For 2: In which step are you with the avatar? Avatar will not be visible as a pane until you finish 4.3.3
For 3: I did few fresh installs myself because I have the tendency to mess things up because I fiddle with things I shouldn't and although it's fun and I learned few things ,I had to do a fresh install few times-which is actually good practice to understand the proceedure.
For 4: Did you check the shoutbox on the right of this pages that says "If you copy code from the book, be sure to retype the ' because they become curly and will not work otherwise". I had this issue also!

Hope this was somehow helpful.
