As the title suggests, can Sharepoint 2010 be installed and successfully run on Azure cloud?
I am aware that Azure used to be stateless and as such could not support Sharepoint, but recent articles and posts seem to suggest that Mirosoft have resolved this.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/06/27/microsoft_windows_azure_cloud_epiphany/
I have checked the Azure website and Sharepoint is mentioned but not specifically 2010 and I want to be sure it's a supported environment with no catches or unforeseen problems.

With the Spring 2012 release (which you read about with your link above), there are now Virtual Machines which are persisted to disks in Windows Azure blobs. SharePoint 2010 is one of the applications that's been specifically tested in this environment.
See this support page, where SharePoint 2010 (and other software) is explicitly called out.

You might find this TechNet article on creating a VM instance in Azure for a SharePoint farm helpful.

I would like to know if Azure has introduced any Reporting tool corresponding to SQL Reporting Services or even if it does support SQL reporting services in cloud flavour like other newly introduce Azure services.
I have a database hosted on Azure SQL and would like to run some reports on it. I have checked some links (SSRS vs Azure SQL Reporting - Cost and Implementation) saying that this feature (Windows Azure Reporting Services) has been discontinued but couldn't find any link confirming it from Microsoft.
I would like to know if Azure does support creating reports from Azure SQL tables or Am I supposed to create a traditional Virtual Machine with SQL and reporting services running.
Please let me know the best/feasible approach.
Thanks in advance!

Reporting Services has been updated in SQL Server 2016, but it is not a standalone service in Azure. If you want a cloud based reporting service, you will need to create a VM that hosts the reporting server.

I am trying since 2 days. I was able to Install but I Cant see my all services in 'SQL Server Configuration Manager and I cannot access sql server management studio.
It works fine on my windows 7 laptop and it have all the services.
Xp have only 'SQL Server(SQLEXPRESS)' running and 'SQL SERVER AGENT(SQLEXPRESS)' and 'SQL SERVER Browser' stopped. I right clicked and tried to start but start is disabled. I am not sure whether this is installation issue or because of windows xp.
You can find a list of supported operating systems and requirments here.
I checked for you and XP Professional service pack 3 is in the list.
You can try if updating your service pack works?

I am very new to TFS and SharePoint so I hope I can explain myself as best as possible.
We currently run a single server farm that runs on Windows 2007 Standard, SQL 2008, TFS 2010 and SharePoint 3.0. I have been given the fun task of upgrading this to TFS 2012 and SharePoint 2010!
Now I have been following the steps that Microsoft provide but I am still hitting problems along the way and need to know the best possible approach!
I have built a new server with all TFS & SharePoint requirements. Windows 2008 R2, SQL 2008 R2. I have also installed TFS and SharePoint 2010. Before I configure anything I then used TFS backup and restore tools provided with the new installation to back up the existing Database on the old server and restored the databases onto the new server running SQL 2008 R2.
Before backing up the databases I made sure I have a backup of the report server encryption key. When trying to restore this I have the following problem?
Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.WMIProviderException: The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable)
Have I missed any steps for the upgrade?
Also when performing this upgrade, is there any chance of this interrupting our current TFS & SharePoint production server?
It sounds like you selected "Install but do not configure" when installing Reporting Services. For TFS 2010+ you need to have it configured as the TFS install will not do that for you like it used to in 2005/2008.
I have a blog post that includes how to configure RS: http://nakedalm.com/integrate-reporting-and-analyses-services-with-team-foundation-server-2013/
Although this is for 2013 it applies equally to 2012.

I installed win 8 rtm on my laptop and today decided i wanted to RDP to it. I went to the remote table of the 'system properties' dialog and theres no option to enable it. There's a useless 'remote assistance' fieldgroup that microsoft apparently want to force me to use.
What I want is the magic checkbox that lets anyone RDP in. I've seen (http://blogs.technet.com/b/digital_musketeer/archive/2011/09/14/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-on-the-windows-8-ctp.aspx) other people have the option but I don't. Mine looks like the screenshot in the link except the remote access field group isn't there. I am an admin. Anyone know the reg key to turn this on?
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8_editions#Comparison_chart only the Pro and Enterprise versions of Windows 8 can host RDP. So if you don't have any of those versions you will not be able to connect to you laptop using RDP. Also confirmed on the offical Windows team blog at http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2012/04/16/announcing-the-windows-8-editions.aspx.
I'm running the Windows 8 Enterprise RTM and I can get the same dialog as in your linked blog post. There are slightly different choices but the options are there, see http://www.guidingtech.com/13469/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-in-windows-8/ for screenshots of the dialog in Win8 RTM.

I work extensively with MySQL and have no experience with SQL Server. But I have an upcoming project where the existing site's database is on SQL Server. I will be needing to make periodic glances at the existing database, to make SQL dumps most likely so I can write a migration script to the new site database in MySQL. The client will be regularly updating this existing database so just asking for a one-time dump will not help.
Ideally I am looking for a web-based (or desktop based) tool which will allow me to log in to the SQL Server database (I have remote access) and allow me to make a dump or perhaps browse the database structure. Something similar to phpMyAdmin would be nice.
Update: I should clarify that web-based tools which are ASP based are not ideal. As much as I'd like to learn more about ASP, I do not have the time to set up another environment just to run the tool. Something hosted by a 3rd party would do the trick.
Several options are available (probably quite a few more, too):
SQL Web Data Administrator
SQL Server Web Tools
Article on web based admin tools
CiberSQL Web Admin
myLittleAdmin (commercial)
SqlWebArchitect
MSSQL Web Admin (broken link)
DBHawk (commercial)
You can also connect via ODBC to your remote MSSQL server then use MSAccess or OpenOffice to connect, browse or backup.
