Yes, probably in the major leagues. This is a judgment call by the official scorer. An error is charged if a major league player would be able to catch the ball with an ordinary effort. The lights in major parks are excellent so unless there is fog or some unusual conditions it is an error if a catchable ball drops even if the player does not see it.

Depends upon how he lost it. If an opposing player knocked it out of his hand, then he can. If he loses it on his own and takes some steps before recovering it, then it would be traveling.

Nothing happens but it reflects poorly on the player throwing the glove. If he does hit the ball with his glove a dead ball is called and the runners advance two bases and the fielder is charged with an error.

Is a past ball an error?
Yes, if the ball is pitched in a location where the catcher has a reasonable chance of stopping the ball, that is a passed ball and the error is charged to the catcher. If the ball is pitched in a location where the catcher does NOT have a reasonable chance of stopping the ball, that is a wild pitch and the error is charged to the pitcher. Actually, a passed ball is NOT charged as an error against the catcher. It's simply charged as a passed ball. Not terribly logical, I agree, but that's the rule.
If the outfielder dives for the ball and catches it but it rolls out is that an error or not?
No. According to Major League Baseball's Official Rule 10.12(a)(1), the game's official scorer should only charge an error to the fielder if he could have otherwise "handled the ball with ordinary effort." A missed diving play, such as a play in which an outfielder catches a fly ball while diving but then loses it upon hitting the ground, would not fall under the criteria of an error because it is not a play that could have been made under ordinary effort.
