Invalid Credentials,

Answer 1

Go to http://bingmapsportal.com and sign in with your Windows Live ID. Once signed in, click Create or view keys in the menu on the left. If you haven't already, create an application by entering the name, URL, and selecting a type (Mobile). Once you've got your application created, copy the long string of characters and paste it into your XAML as the value of the CredentialsProvider attribute.
