In the standard class the author is printed inside the environment tabular. Therefor the command \and is defined as:
\def\and{% % \begin{tabular}
\end{tabular}%
\hskip 1em \@plus.17fil%
\begin{tabular}[t]{c}}% % \end{tabular}
In your case you don't need an extra \and. You document class puts the author in a center environment. So ...

Here's one possibility; I redefined the title page template and used TikZ's \nodes to place the elements; pdfrender was used for the author and the title:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{pdfrender}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes,arrows}
\setbeamerfont{author}{size=\Huge}
\setbeamerfont{institute}{size=\normalsize\itshape}

In article class \author command is internally set as a tabular and \and finishes one tabular and starts another so a list of authors becomes a list of tabulars.
this class just sets Author in a center environment and doesn't provide a replacement for \and. You could just use \\ or use
\renewcommand\and{\\[\baselineskip]}

This seems to work, at least if the footnote to the author is short.
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[bottom,flushmargin,hang,multiple]{footmisc}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd\maketitle{\hb@xt@1.8em}{\hbox}{}{}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\title{Title}
\author{Joe Blow\footnote{Address}}
\maketitle
Hello.\footnote{This is a ...

Too much code in your link to try, But You probably don't need needspace, just setting infinite (ie 10000) penalties after the title and (depending on style) the first rows of the music/poem ought to be enough as long as there is enough flexibility on the page to compensate for not breaking at that point. For example if \flushbottom is in effect.
If every ...

The LyX thesis template is based on Koma-Script book ("scrbook.cls"). In this class \maketitle defines the sequence: title page, thanks, title back page, dedication. The title back page with \uppertitleback and \lowertitleback is only printed if in two-sided mode (you will find the condition \if@twoside in "scrbook.cls"). We remove this condition by setting ...

Found a solution:
\usefonttheme{structurebold}
\setbeamerfont{title}{series=\bfseries,parent=structure}
\setbeamerfont{subtitle}{size=\scriptsize,series=\bfseries,parent=structure}
\setbeamerfont{author}{size=\scriptsize,series=\bfseries,parent=structure}
\setbeamerfont{institute}{size=\scriptsize,series=\bfseries,parent=structure}

\vspace* doesn't seem to like being put before a title. A work around is to add vertical space to the \title
\documentclass[notitlepage]{article}
\begin{document}
\title{\vspace{30mm}My title}
\author{My name}
\maketitle
\thispagestyle{empty}
\begin{flushright}
My name\\
My Faculty\\
2013\\
etc
\end{flushright}
\newpage
\end{document}
This would lower ...

At a paragraph end TeX breaks the paragraph into lines with the current settings including the line width. The result are horizontal boxes that are placed on the pages and page breaks are inserted if necessary. The change from one column to two column layout very likely also changes the line width. Thus any left over lines from a paragraph of the first page ...

As a workaround, add \clearpage immediately before \end{abstract}. (I'm assuming that, like for the onecolumn class option, the abstract should be part of the title page -- otherwise, an even worse hack is\date{\today\clearpage}.)
\documentclass[titlepage,aps,prd,twocolumn,groupedaddress,floatfix]{revtex4-1}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}

You can use a titlepage environment, which provides a whole page for the title. The formatting is up to you. Here is an example:
\documentclass[10pt,twoside]{book}
\begin{document}
\begin{titlepage}
\vspace*{5cm}
\begin{center}
\Large\bfseries
Header\\
SubHeader\\
Thesis\par
\end{center}
\vspace{1cm}
\begin{center}
\large ...
