Answer 1

Have you tried:-

private IsolatedStorageSettings app = IsolatedStorageSettings.SiteSettings;
string loginId = app["LoginId"];

?

That should work fine.

Note that if you are delivering your app entirely in Silverlight then you should consider using Silverlight's navigation framework so that you are not actually re-loading various Xaps as you navigate.
