I have watched every video I can find, I've downloaded all the examples, read blogs all morning, and I still am having problems getting started.
Which specifuc questions (other than what you have already mentioned), that you need to get started and haven't found an answer in the dos, in the examples, nor in the videso.
I can't seem to find a guide to tell me which Target Framework I should use.

There are a jillion different options when creating a LLBLGen Pro project, and there doesn't seem to be a single help file that guides you through all these options.
Code Generation COnfiguration
I've tried, following the online video's, to create a model from the Northwind db, which I can successfully repeat and create the code, but then when I create a new Visual Studio solution, I get totally lost.
You should start by creating an application (new project), that should reference the generated code projects, and then you should start consuming the generated classes to fetch, save, update or delete data, just as shown in the docs or in the examples.
How do I get the data objects to show up in the toolbox?
Right Click on the toolbox, selet "Add Items", and browse to the ORMSupportClasses dlls (assuming you are using the LLBLGen Framework)
Where is a list of best practices for how to access and update data?
There are no best practices that are specific to LLBLGen Pro.
How do I bind data to a datagrid?
Assuming you are using the LLBLGen Pro Framework, you should check this documentation links:
WinForms Databinding & WebForms Databinding
What are the guidelines for changing the model on an existing project.
There are no specific guidelines on changing the model.
