    That's how you change classes after you've unlocked them. You have to unlock each class by doing a simple quest at the class's guild hall. (It's simply talking to first the receptionist and then the guildmaster.)

    There are no limitations on progressing all the classes. It seems most people at least start all nineteen classes, and quite a few players advance many or all of them all the way to level 50. Each class is advanced seperately, though. The level you've already reached in your starting class is not an overall character level, but the level your character has for that particular class. When you unlock another class, you'll start that new class at level 1. (Which means you'll want to still have your level 1 gear to wear. Keep your starting equipment until you've outleveled it on all classes.)

    Two ways to get there:
    1) Continue to follow the main storyline quests up to level 15 when you get a quest to be the envoy from your starting city to the other two. This quest unlocks the use of airships which allow you to port between them anytime thereafter for a fee.

    2) Travel south through Central and South Shroud, and then south-west through Eastern and Central Thanalan to reach Ul'dah. (There is no similar way to get to Limsa Lominsa overland, as it's an island. For that one, you'll have to wait until you get airship access.)

    Yes, eventually. If you're on a DPS class, it may take a long time, though. If you want to shorten that time, you can use chat to find other people to group with, form your party ahead of time, and then use Duty Finder simply to enter the dungeon with your already-formed party. Joining a Free Company (this game's version of what many MMOs call guilds) or a linkshell (private chat channels) can be good ways of connecting with people to make it easier to find other players to group with.
