I've been trying to follow the various tutorials on the web 
to do beamer in org-mode. I've used beamer, latex and emacs 
for many years but am finding that none of the examples on 
the web work totally s intended in my attempts to use
org-mode with beamer. 

I have copied verbatim several examples such as from here:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-beamer/tutorial.html#sec-4_1

When I run  them I get the following problems - plus others 
I will go into later if necessary:

1. The title page does not have a title - just the date. 
When I check the latex file created from the org file I 
notice that a \maketitle command occurs outside a frame environment 
- whereas in beamer I normally use \titlepage inside a frame
environment to create the titlepage. 

2. \alert command does not work - even with the additions to .emacs 
suggested here:
 http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg21507.html
(And there are no errors in running the .emacs file) 
Always the @ symbol appears in the latex created from org as @. 

I wonder whether there is some configuration I am missing. 
Other aspects of the slides are normal - bullets and 
frametitles specifically.

I have installed the latest (git) version of org-mode and have stripped out all
customizations from  I think. I've copied Eric's two column example from here

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-beamer/tutorial.html

with the headers given there. And I can't get either blocks or columns to work.
There is no block or column command in the latex produced from the org file. 

I guess it's something to do with the value of the variable 

org-export-latex-classes 

but have been unable to find a statement of what that should be. I think I've
undone all customizations of that  variable from earlier attempts but can't be
sure. 

Thanks for your help.

Bill
