Yesterday we reported that Google Analytics real time reporting feature was not working for many webmasters and marketers. No worries, Google is now aware of the issue and promises a fix will be out within 24 hours or so.
Google said on Twitter that there is a workaround, just clear your cookies or try accessing the report using incognito browser:
Update: If you see errors accessing realtime reports in GA, a temporary workaround is to clear cookies or use an incognito browser window.

Google also said the fix should be out soon:
We are working on a permanent resolution to this issue, which is expected to go live tomorrow. Apologies for the inconvenience.

So be patient or try those workarounds to get your real time reports.
There is another bug I didn't mention yesterday around Google Analytics, this one is about setting up scheduled emailed reports within the Dashboard section. They simply error out and don't let you schedule an email report to be set up, if you try to do them in your personalized dashboard in Google Analytics. Here is a thread about that bug at the Google Analytics Help forum.
Here is a screen shot of that bug:
