2. Hitter swings and misses? I believe count is still 2 and 2, R1 gets second.
4. Count is now 3 and 2. Hitter takes the pitch, if the pitch is ball 4, then the hitter walks and R1 moves to 2nd. If the pitch is a strike then it is a no pitch and R1 goes to second.

However, if you have a situation where the batter could attempt to advance on a dropped third strikes (2 out in the above cases), then he can. If he does, and all runners advance, then the balk is ignored.
