I have a large building footprint with a lot of in's and out's of wall projections.  Is there a way to pin all of these walls at once, so they do not move?

Pinning all walls would not be good.  It is far better to learn good Revit practice rather than overloading your project with pinned elements.

This is still a risk of over-constraining... but if you lay out a good, dimensioned grid, you can pin the grid, and then keep your walls on, or aligned and locked to it.  locking too many elements will cause you a lot of grief, but major walls tend to not hurt too much.  best way to get the lock icon/option to appear is using the align tool.  Even if you're aligning to a line/plane an object is already on, the icon will reappear.
