PIC32-MX460 and PIC-ICD2-TINY

I have a MX460 development board from olimex and a PIC-ICD2-TINY programmer but I do not know how to connect them and how to configure MPLABX to use it.

I connect the programmer via ICSP. But I still have a power jack that I do not know if I have to use it to power the programmer or to power the development board.

Is there any one that can help me?

By the way is there some tutorial to help me get started with pic32 and with this development board?
The topics I am interested are:
Read IO
Write to IO
Read write to serial port
Timer interruptions
IO external interruptions
USB communication
Ethernet
Bootloaders

The best place to reference is Olimex's website, which lists the PIC-ICD2-TINY as OBSOLETE.

PIC-ICD2-TINY

According to Olimex's website the PIC-ICD2-TINY is only compatible with earlier versions of MPLAB IDE, pre MPLAB 8.XX, it makes no mention of MPLABX.

It is most likely not compatible with MPLABX or ever will be.

Officially, neither the Microchip ICD2 nor PICkit 2 are compatible with the current version of MPLABX, why extend compatibility to an programmer considered obsolete by its own manufacture.

If you insist on utilizing the PIC-ICD2-TINY, you'll probably need to install the MPLAB IDE and C32 compiler.

Or the PIC-ICD2-TINY maybe compatible with the PICkit 2 programming application:

PICkit 2 V2.60 Install with .NET Framework

However, caution as the product page FAQ states their is an issue with the programming voltage and some PIC variants.

Or better yet obtaining a more current programmer/debugger, a unit compatible with MPLABX.

Once again consult the Olimex Website, there are compatibility issues with the programming voltage and many PIC variants.
