My tractor is a 2005 New Holland TC30, it will not start unless I jump it from battery to solenoid. Even if I do this it will run for a while then die, won't restart unless I jump it, but only after something cools off. I know there are several safety start switches, but not sure where they are and how to check them, I have already bypassed the seat switch. Any IDEAS about what the problem or problems are.

First thing I'd do is make sure all the connections (battery to starter and everything in between are clean and bright) and the negative side cables and connections are the same. HF sells a dandy post and clamp cleaning tool for under 5 bucks that works peachy, in fact I have a couple of them.

By all means clean and check all connections as suggested above. You may be having issues with your fuel shutoff solenoid. It could open or close an internal (or external) connection when it gets hot.
Well finally got back to working on tractor, checked and cleaned all connection that I could think of, rechecked all safety switches and relays. Change out fuel filter and fuel shutoff solenoid and added new fuel to tank. Went out this morning and tractor started without me having to jump it, but only ran for about an hour which is more than it has run in a while. Waited about 15 minutes and it restarted by key, just wondering if it may have something to do with ejectors

You probably solved the problem, you just don't know where/what it was. Could have been any of the things you touched, but it wasn't the injectors.

I had similar troubles with my Hurlimann 435 Prince. Deleting the fuel shut off controller and replacing the function with pull rod to the injector pump cured the random shut off completely.
I hate spending hundreds of dollars to do what a 3 foot length of steel wire does easily.
Can you post picture of your pull rod addition not sure how to add this to mine. Another problem is that I am getting a constant beeping noise from tractor it continues until a disconnect negative cable from battery. Haven’t heard this myself until my wife asked me what the beeping was, I am almost deaf unless I wear my hearing aids.
