How can you tell when it is time to tune bagpipes?

You don't. When the cat inside the bag dies and starts to smell, you put a new cat in

Use a metronome and go over licks that you want to speed up. Gradually bring it up faster, but stop if you are making mistakes. You don't want to make the habit of playing fast and sloppy. Use alternating picking (Picking the notes upstroke and down), don't brink your fingers too far from the fretboard.

After dinner arrives, you listen for the church bell. Since dinner comes between 6:15 and 6:45, the next chiming has to be at 7:00 PM. When you hear it, you start to count the drips from the faucet until you hear the chime again at 8:00 PM. Divide the number of drips by four, and you'll have the number of drips that fall in fifteen minutes (Or you can divide by sixty to get the drops per minute, and then multiply this by fifteen). When the bell chimes again at 9:00, you start counting drips until you reach the specified number. It is now 9:15 PM, and time to tap out your message.\n\n=)

Hold down the 2nd fret on the top string (6th string), hit the string along with the string next to it (5th string) until they both sound the same...

Whatever you can play and sound good doing it. Also you and your mates must be comfortable with the style.

In general, you hear the entire band. Technically, you hear first whatever is loudest. Since it takes 3 to 5 woodwind instruments to get as loud as the brass, and based on the instrument choices given, I would suspect TUBA!!!

get a C harmonica, and play along to songs in the key of C, try some old hank williams stuff

there are several ways to do this, if you can recognize the tone of E which will be your largest string what you will do is set that to where you know you have the right sound then you will hold e at the fifth fret and pluck  then pluck a open, make your adjustment on a until e held on the 5th fret and a open have the same pitch, then you just repeat the process with the rest of the strings, e on 5 is a open a on 5 is d open etc. or you can use an electronic tuner if you need to get dead accurate, however if you can't hold tune then maybe the problem is in the tuning pegs the bridge or the neck of your guitar maybe warped

Why don't you just play it by ear...take your time and if it's right you'll know it.

check your pads, if it looks like the thin paper like layer is torn or damaged in any way, you may need to replace your pads, usually they need to be changed about once a year, it can also effect your tone quality if these do need to be replaced

take a string and pluck all of the strings. if you have a guitar, then use the frets too. congrats, you have just learn the resonance theory. sound is vibration, too.
