Consider כריכות ברשות הרבים הרי אלו שלו ברשות היחיד נוטל ומכריז. Explain how to explain the mishna according to רבה.

It must be where there is a סימן because otherwise it is impossible to announce when found in רשות היחיד. Therefore, it must have a sign even in רשות הרבים and he can keep it because a סימן העשוי לידרס is not a valid סימן.

Who does this proof attempt to prove in the הוה אמינא and how?

Tries to prove Abaye. The seifa of the Mishna says that when someone was happy with the food getting wet only after they had dried, it is not מוכשר לטומאה. This indicates that we don't say the owner's knowledge works retroactively for הכשר טומאה. And if it doesn't work for הכשר טומאה, then it also shouldn't work for יאוש שלא מדעת, which is Abaye's opinion.

For the case of תמרי דזיקא, explain what they are and what is the rule for if there is a fence or if the property is owned by orphans that are minors. 

It is a case where dates blew of the tree onto the ground.

For both, the rule is you can't keep them. With the fence, you can't keep them because the creepy-crawlies won't be able to access them so the owner doesn't have יאוש. In a case of owned by orphans, you can't keep it because minors cannot make their property הפקר.

Consider כריכות ברשות הרבים הרי אלו שלו ברשות היחיד נוטל ומכריז. Say how to explain the mishna according to רבא.

The mishna is talking about where there is no sign because otherwise even in רשות הרבים you would still have to announce since a סימן העשוי לידרס is a valid sign. You have to announce in רשות היחיד even without a סימן because the place it is found is considered a סימן.
