Hi all.
We had exactly the same problem on our development environment. Blackboard told us to disable and re enable software updates and cloud profiles through the backend then re enable. This didn't help. What you'll probably find is that the tools will magically start to work in a few days.
I rebuild the environment a few times for other reasons and found this each time. The tools are flaky at the moment on initial setup. I'm guessing it's some kind of sync which needs to happen at blackboards end.

We are having problems with this on a test server too. We've currently got a ticket in with Bb about it, but I've not heard anything back yet (although I'm not handling the ticket from our end).
In the tests we've done with it, any attempt to edit your profile just creates an error.
Cheers

I have installed the social learning/social profiles blocks and enabled them but I don't see any of the options in the admin panel which are shown in the cloud FAQ - has the rumour that the UK/European versions have these features crippled? These were the big selling points for SP10/11 and is something eagerly awaited here. I may just be missing something can anyone who already has SP10 or 11 enlighten me about this because all I can find in Blackboard FAQ is that to meet the needs of international clients these tools are optional and do not prevent other features from working - as usual the amount of information given by Blackboard is pretty sparse
