Perhaps Jesse Sánchez thought he was answering your questions, but it looks instead like more questions? In any event, Maura, let me answer your questions above.
The instructions to rewrite the sentence, replacing the direct object noun with the correct pronoun, means that THIS is what you need to do:
1. Tráigalo. It is a command and thus the object pronouns follow the verb form, are attached to it and therefore require a written accent mark. "el postre" is masculine singular, so the correct object pronoun is "lo."
2. The verb "esperar" means "to wait FOR" so a preposition is not needed. The 2 ways of writing this is to put the object pronoun before the verb and after the subject (l) or to add it to an infinitive or gerund (-ndo form), with a written accent mark if required. (l) LO estamos esperando. or (2) Estamos esperándolo.
3. This is similar to #2 in that the object pronoun goes before the verb form or after, attached, etc. (1) LO voy a llamar. or (2) Voy a llamárlo.
I'll flag this to come back later, in case you have any further questions.
As for the last #1 = Since you do not have the written accents, here is what the base sentence should say: Juan n o está aquí todavía. (then you are to write the command to "call him.") = Uds, llámenlo ahora.
