Check out the variable org-refile-targets. You can indicate how many
levels deep you want to be able to refile.

Again, check out the variable org-refile-targets.

Yes, as the instructions at the top of the remember button indicate, you
can use C-1 C-c C-c to "select file and header location interactively."
If you want this as the default action, you can set
org-remember-store-without-prompt to t.

Are you perhaps using an older version of org-mode (version 4.xx)? If
so, you need to update to a more recent version to get these features.

Matt
