*** Warning -- totally confused noob ahead.....
I've been trying to complete the tutorial on Eve for a couple of days now and I seem to have got stuck (probably because I did something stupid). I have got out into space and flew to the start of the Deadspace. I killed the pirate, used the AAG to jump to the first dead space complex, killed the pirates and found the key. I then jumped to area two and started mining the asteroids but I had to do something else so I marked the location of the asteroids in "People and Places" and headed home (this might be the stupid thing). Later I returned and mined until my hold was full but then I found I couldn't activate the next gate.
I returned to the first AAG, killed the pirate and grabbed the cargo pod but now that gate wouldn't activate. The tutorial won't let me progress until I am inside the "Second Deadspace Complex" but I can't seem to get their without using the AAGs.
I was attempting to use the gates by 'Approaching' them and selecting 'Activate Gate' but nothing ever happens. The ship just sits there doing nothing.
I have googled this but I found no answers so I am concluding that I am doing something really, really stupid (or I broke the tutorial by exiting halfway through, which seems unlikely). Could somebody please put me out of my misery and explain my stupid mistake so I can press on to brighter stars and bigger ships.....
Thanks in advance

In my opinion, the tutor is broke. You broke it by logging off half way through. Your best bet now (a hassle) is to reset the tutor and complete it in one sitting. The reset is worth it because you get about a 1.5 mil ISK prize at the end.

I don't think that's the case... Your tutorial sounds like it's functioning properly. The problem is that you can't activate the gate. I agree with the fact that it's a bug, but I doubt resetting the tutorial will help. I'd say try going to a different complex. I had to go to a few different ones before finally getting it to work.

It's worth it to finish the tutorial, simply to learn a little about navigating the game's interface.
As far as the 1.5mil ISK reward, if Gadfly is referring to the implant, you should be able to get that, regardless of tutorial completion. I know I was able to skip the tutorial and still finish the storyline sequence to get the implant.
Not sure how it is for other races, but for minmatar it was
2 quick missions for tutorial agent + 8 courier type missions for storyline agent = an implant.
Hope you get the acceleration gate thingy resolved. I know I was out of synch a few times with the pirates and somehow by randomly killing pirates and clicking on gates I was able to continue.

There seems to be a bug that won't let the gates operate when the tutorial box is open in some cases. Go back to the first gate and try to use it with the tutorial closed. I sat at that gate for 1/2 an hour once trying to get it to work as player after player went passed me. Finally I shut the tutorial, and gave it one last try and "boom", I'm in the next section.

The tutorial give you a 1.0 standing boost that you might need later. However, if it's broken and you can't go on, you can skip it now and come back later to do it. My character had been mission running for 2 months before I decided to do the tutorial for the extra boost in standing.

I think you can get this without actually doing all of the tutorial. I swear, as I was messing around with various alts, that I simply skipped the tutorial and talked directly to the tutorial agent. He/she will give you 2 missions, 1 is to kill some drone and loot radioactive container and the other is to deliver something to a neighboring system. After you finish these 2 missions, you'll get the 1.0 standing and be able to talk to the storyline agent for the next series of missions.
Is there an additional 1.0 boost somewhere that I'm missing?
I have an empty alt slot so I can give this a try tonight and report back.

You get the 1.0 standing for finishing the initial Storyline Arc. You dont have to finish the Tutorial to do this.... It does help for new players though. :)

I had the exact same thing happen to me. Fix--->Above Aura's face in the tutorial box are many blue boxes showing your progression through the tutorial. Simply click on one that is a few before your present filled in box. You will have to redo a few things in the tutorial, but the gates will allow you to use them again. Enjoy.

Sorry for the double post.
Thanks Reverend X. That sorted it for me nicely.
This is most friendly forum I have come across for an online game.
Thanks to everybody who replied for their helpful suggestions.

Glad to see you get the problem resolved.
As a followup, I created an alt yesterday, skipped the UI tutorial and began doing the missions. The tutorial mission agent hands you 2 missions, very simple. Once you finish those 2 missions, the tutorial agent will give you a 1.0 faction standing with some corp/faction group, based upon your chosen race. At this point you can just do the followup storyline mission sequence and get your implant.
You don't have to actually go thru the tutorial to get the implant. You just need to do the missions. As for the 1.0 standing boost that was mentioned, I think you just get that by doing the 2 missions for the tutorial agent, in your starting location.
