Size and shape would be the difference. Cake tins tend to be round or in a shape like a heart or something. Baking tin square or rectangle. Cake tins have shorter sides. Anything can be used for anything, so it is probably more the person using the term more than anything. Most recipe's will call for a size of pan and that will determine what you use.

How do you make a rectangular cake?
you don't (first answer) If you bake the cake in a tin/pan with baking paper, when finished lift out the cake from the tin and let it cool down. Then cut out a nice heart shape from a piece of paper the size of the cake. Lay the heart shape on the cake and cut carefully around it. Then you have a heart shaped cake and with beautiful pink vanilla icing on the top, you will never be able to tell you did not have a heart shaped tin to begin with!

What is the difference between a sandwich tin and a cake tin?
A sandwich tin is a type of cake tin, but it is shallower than the tin used to bake a whole cake. Typically if making a sponge you might divide the mixture between two sandwich tins, rather than baking it in one cake tin. This produces two flatter cakes (and reduces the baking time). When cold these two cakes may be 'sandwiched' together (hence the name) with jam and whipped cream to make one taller cream-filled cake. The top would then be dusted with icing sugar. It ensures that all the layers of a cake to be stacked are the same size and avoids the fiddly and messy need to slice a cake in half horizontally if you want to fill it.
What happens if you forget to grease the baking tin?
The cake can burn or stick the pan instead of coming out as easily after it is done baking.
