Answer 1

You have to re-install easy_install using Python 2.7 and all other modules as well. Don't expect that existing packages installed with a different interpreter are supposed to work out of the box with a new interpreter. Reinstalling into the new Python 2.7 interpreter is the way to go. First step: reinstall easy_install by downloading ez_setup.py (Google) and running it with the 2.7 interpreter..
