Same problem here. I emailed ocbeta and got a reply that said "If you are requesting to join the V2.0 beta, please use the beta request form on Microsoft Connect. We cannot add new beta users through this e-mail address." I clicked the invitation in Connect and got instant access to download the beta. I installed it.
I only downloaded v2.0, not 1.6 from Connect. I could not see in the UI "Click Change settings, select the Backup tab and select Subscribe to OneCare online photo backup" <- can't see this option.
I also clicked the button in the UI to subscribe onlline to the beta with my Live ID and I got this error:

In Connect, I cannot see an option to download a key. There is a key in the invitation, but since I cannot sign up as per the above error, I can't enter the key anywhere.
I am in Australia.
Tried to subscribe online a second time. Got to a different point after signing in 2-3 times, as if my Live ID isn't being cookied. (Messenger is signed in all this time). I got to a form where I could sign up for a Live ID, or log in with an existing one. Tried the existing login option. Now I get a form to create a new Live ID and no option to use an existing ID!
