Is there a stronger emphasis when using para nada/en absoluto? Thank you

This show is called "Españoles en el mundo" not "Españoles por el mundo": https://www.rtve.es/alacarta/videos/espanoles-en-el-mundo/ It's one of my favorite shows in Spanish. Thank you for featuring it Kwiziq team!

In this question (I waited for them), it appears to me that "them" is an indirect object pronoun. Below, Gruff, a Kwiziq team member says this. However, this question is answered by using a direct object pronoun. I got it wrong when I used the indirect pronoun. Which is it? I would appreciate having this clarified as I keep getting this question and I don't know how to answer it. Thanks,

I am curious about a couple of things in the phrase below:

no podíamos quitar carga a la bicicleta.

1) Why isn't there a la in front of carga?

2) How do I decide that a is the correct proposition to use for "from the bicycle"?  My first thought was to use de.  My second thought that the English wording " remove the resistance on the bike" hinted at en.  After seeing the answer, I considered the possibility that cargar may always be followed by a (by grammar rule).

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I continue to take tests on this lesson but am not given credit for correct answers up to 100%. Please assist me. Thank you.

When we write objects after the verb, do we always write them in the order Direct Object followed by Indirect Object, like this?

(Les) cantaron una canción a Pedro y Pablo por su despedida.

Or can we change the order like this:

(Les) cantaron a Pedro y Pablo una canción por su despedida.

Thanks.

PS How can I find my answered questions?  I don't seem to be getting notifications.

Why is the accent on "cuando" in this answer? It doesn't appear to be a question. Is it considered an indirect sentence because the narrator is quoting the screen?

La pantalla no dice ________ aterriza el avión.The screen doesn't say when the plane is landing.

EDIT January 12: I see that there is a lesson in B1 about use of the accent. However, I'm still in A2, so maybe there could be a link to that lesson where I was in A2? It only said when to use the accent, not when not to. Thanks.

I am confused after getting an answer wrong in a test and then reviewing the subsequent lesson.   

In a recent test, this sentence was given to complete.   "No me gusto nada hacer ejercicio _____________."  My answer was "después de comer," when in fact the answer was "después de comiendo."   

I went back to review the lesson and the lesson states that after the preposition "de" comes the infinitive form of the verb to say the "ing" form of the verb.    Now I am confused as to why my answer of "después de comer" is not correct.   When do you use the infinitive?  and when do you use the present participle (i.e. ending "ando" or "iendo") after the preposition de?
