How do you adjust the oven temperature to bake a ham and yams at the same time?
You can bake the ham and yams in the oven at the same time. If you are baking the ham for several hours, put the yams in about an hour before the ham is finished. Or put the yams in at the same time as the ham, and test them by piercing with a fork after about 45 minutes.
How much maple syrup should you add to 2 pounds of mashed yams?
I would start with about a cup; but I recommend using brown sugar instead.
How do I bake a yam?
I like to oven roast yams to bring out the natural sugars in the yam and carmelize them. Leave the yams whole, prick a few holes in the skin to allow steam to escape, wrap each one in tin foil, then roast in the oven at 400 degrees under tender to the center. (Cooking times will vary depending on the size of the yam, you can always finish off stragglers -- without the tin foil -- in the microwave). Add a small pat of butter, and serve. Some people also like to use honey, maple syrup, or even toasted marshmallows to sweeten up their yams.

What can you use in a diet instead of pumpkin?
I am thinking you are Australian for some reason. In the Western countries pumpkin is generally used for pumpkin pie, pudding or pumpkin soup. Squash and yams would be a good choice in place of pumpkin. There are many varieties of squash. Acorn Squash: Cut in half. Turn meaty side down and steam until tender. Take out of oven and place on rack until cool and all moisture is gone. Mix butter, brown sugar, small pieces of apples, a few raisins, salt and pepper and fill cavities. You can keep this up to 3 - 4 days in your fridge and serve to guests. Yams are excellent for hormone replacement (estrogen.) These are best steamed and can be eaten in chunks, or, mashed, put in a dish, covered with small marshmallows or a little brown sugar and butter and reheated. Yams will stay in the fridge for quite sometime.

My advise is to stay away from the brown yams, but it's your salad.
Can you put butter AND sugar inside a potato before you bake it in oven?
Unless one is baking a sweet potato (also called yams in the U.S.) one does not use sugar in baking potatoes. Because potatoes usually are baked whole and unpeeled, butter, salt and often sour cream are added after baking.
