Nope
Yes, of course you can if it has been handled sensibly. The safety will depend on proper handling. See a USDA or agricultural extension service site for proper food handling instructions. The quality will suffer. it will tend to dryness more after the second thawing and will benefit from a brine soak and marinade before roasting. If you can use it in a sauce you will have better results.
Yes. If they were raw and frozen then refroze that is okay. You can also freeze cooked ones. But when you thaw and reheat them they tend to go mushy.
If there's any way to avoid it, I'd suggest not re-freezing a raw apple pie. The reason is that the pastry crust will be inferior once it's re-frozen. Frozen and then thawed pastry crust absorbs a lot of moisture from the freeze; if you then re-freeze it, all that moisture will also freeze which causes the crust to be flatter and not brown as well. If you can, try to bake the pie first and then re-freeze it. You'll be happier with the results.
No! Fish is a meat that is very perishable, meaning it goes bad quickly. When I buy shrimp I usually plan to eat it that night, and I keep it on ice in the refrigerator. Where we live we don't get fresh shrimp, so it has already been frozen once, and I use it immediately. Shrimp also becomes rubbery.

I will be taking steroids in my upcoming Frozen Embryo Transfer. I've previously had one unsuccessful IVF, and a second that resulted in a pregnancy, but ended in miscarriage at 8 weeks.
Refreezing is only a problem if the food isn't cooked in-between. As long the the thawed food is thoroughly cooked it is no problem to refreeze. The fact that it turned brown while frozen is a bigger issue. I could be "freezer burn" which is when frozen food has dried out. This happens a lot in frost free freezers since dehydrating the air is part of why they're frost free. If you cook ground meat that has freezer burn it won't hurt you, but it might be chewy or dry. If you use it, I would suggest using it in something saucy like spaghetti sauce or chili so the dryness won't be noticable.Another opinionAny meat that has been frozen can be roasted, fried or steamed WELL and then refrozen. Be sure you don't leave any pink juices in the ground beef. Cook well, then freeze as soon as it cools in the refrigerator. More on thisIt's not recommended, but many people have done it from time to time. There are two concerns - food safety and taste. On the food safety issue, the concern is that between freezing/thawing and refreezing, the meat will be at room temperature more than 1-2 hours, and may cause food poisoning. The second issue is taste. Food that is frozen, thawed and refrozen usually suffers in taste or texture. Ground beef is not as prone to loss of taste/texture as a steak would be, so that's not a huge concern. Even more...As long as the meat is defrosted in the refrigerator and kept out of the "danger zone" between 40° and 140°, you can refreeze it. There will be some loss of flavor though
No one knows
Yes. But, any damage is done during the thawing. If you thaw in the refrigerator at 5C you can refreeze. if you cook the beef after thawing once you refreeze it, but if you thaw the beef the first time at room temperature you are risking food poisoning when you thaw the beef a second time

Yes. Many pot pies are actually sold frozen. If homemade, it would be best to vacuum seal the pie before freezing it. If you do not have a vacuum sealer, wrap the pie tightly in plastic wrap, and then foil. As long ans the plastic wrap does not fall down the side of the pan, and the foil covers it completely, you can take from the freezer directly to the oven.
Yes but it has to be 30 second or less
