You can exercise a 3-4 days after getting your tattoo, but do not wear tight, restricting clothing, and try to limit the amount of exercise you do in the area of your new tattoo. Make sure you clean your tattoo immediately after exercising.

12 - 18 months.

Usually people start earlier, some even a week. But these are the ones that get streched tattoos.

Don't make this mistake!

^^^This is incorrect. It depends on the size and placement. I have two inner forearm tattoos that have been unaffected by weight lifting. If you have something like a full back tattoo or a band, it won't matter how long you wait, it WILL stretch as your muscles grow.

You can go running the next day. Proper cleansing afterward of course, and I wouldn't wear any clothing that is going to irritate it; other than that your good to go.

Depending on where the tattoo was applied to your body. Treat this tattoo like an injury. A bad scrape or scratch. Keep antibiotic ointment on it, you should be fine to do your normal things.

After getting a tattoo, the area will be tender and sore for a week or so. Avoid any strenuous activity for the first few days after.

You really shouldn't tan at all if you have tattoos because it will make your colors fade really quick, but if you insist, I would wait at least two weeks after getting anything done, and make sure you cover the tattoo with high spf sunblock.
