1) They see them in the combat resolution form, but on screen I'm not sure. Even if its the other players attack, did you try clicking on the hex to be attacked at your end and seeing if they show in the Main Form? I can't say this will work, it has not been a concern for me when playing.
2) Likely so. I've found Alt-Tab a few times may work to get it back. If it is indeed gone then its a bug and for NetPlay both players save files are needed to be posted for trouble-shooting.
3) I have not seen this behavior.
4) Double-click a land hex to get fly-outs. Double-click a sea dot to get the Naval Review Details form. If you close the latter, fly-outs are still disabled until you double-click a land hex again. MWiF has an amazing number of choices for viewing units. You can also CTRL-Left-click on a port when selecting naval units there. There's also CTRL-H which brings up the Units in Hex form and CTRL-U which allows you to filter on literally hundreds of different parameters to see the units in the game. The more you play, the more you will find which tools perform best for your preferences.
5) I don't use sound for NetPlay - I use Skype and either talk or text with my opponent.
6) Probably one area of the manual that is really worth studying and features that are worth experimenting with - are Screen Layouts and Map Views. The interface here is difficult to get used to and use properly, but once you do, these two are extremely powerful. Especially when switching between say a laptop and a multi-screen desktop.
