I had 9 hits that had posted by Saturday of last week, only received a bonus for 4. I figure that I'll receive the bonus for the other 4 when the next round posts.
The next round of bonuses will post in 2 weeks, per discussion on many of the threads in this forum, and the rules of the promotion.
Again, per multiple discussions on threads in this forum, Biscoff takes quite a while to post, and someone suggested expect those around October 1, at the earliest.
I've had 2 shopping mall transactions post, but those just posted this morning.
As far as the other transactions, since there should be threads for most, you'd probably receive the most accurate responses on those threads.

So at this point there are three scenarios:
1. I am on a later sweep.
2. It doesn't count and you have to make a trade.
3. It posted to my account late enough to not be included on this sweep. I can't remember when the SB miles hit, but I believe it was either Friday or over the weekend.
Who knows how to truly tell. The easiest answer for me is also the best option - that it counts and I'm in a later sweep.

I had Dinning and shopping mall miles post and count. No post for toolbar or biscoff yet and I haven't done the other 2 you list.

However, last year I noticed that my Grand Slam bonus miles didn't hit until a few HOURS after earliest reports on FT. So I am not worried yet. (But I am impatiently waiting. )
On the AR thread, there are reports the AR trivia DID count

I am super worried now. I spent over $130 so far doing Biscoff, Hertz rental, track it back, exchange miles, etc. I've done about 18 hits total, of which 8 are showing up in my DM account. HOWEVER, unlike the rest of you, I have no GS bonus miles posted today. And yes, I registered the first day that GS registration became available. Is it possible that my registration somehow did not go through???

So, bonus miles posted!
This also tells us that the vague "ONLINE REDEMPTION" for Magazines counts without an issue.

Mine have not yet posted either.
I would suggest some patience here. A CSR is not going to know the schedule of when the batch jobs run and there may be multiple batches through out the day.
If you feel you need to make contact I would email so as not to overwhelm the call center.

Is anyone in position to confirm whether this is one or two hits? It's a Marriott stay using the current US Airways promotion that is unrelated to the Grand Slam:
Believe it or not, I already have three of these. Marriott posts the base and bonus points together and within 2-3 days of the stay. (Good to know for people who need hotel hits in November.) If the bonuses count, I have 15 hits. If they don't, I have 12.
Is it like rental cars...just one hotel stay hit per day?
Unrelated question: can anybody who opened a Sharebuilder account and then made a single trade confirm a hit? Based on the AR Trivia counting, it's looking like SB without a trade doesn't count. But how does US Airways ever know you've made a trade? SB doesn't send across more miles. I fear that the only way to get an SB hit is to be a new subscriber to their "power trader" level. (I forget what it's called but I think it's $12/mo., minimum 6 months.)
9/18/2011 09/21/11 MARRIOTT HOTELS BONUS 238
9/18/2011 09/21/11 MARRIOTT HOTELS BONUS 2,000

The toolbar points post once a month, so they should show up in early October. Note that it usually shows the first day you earn miles as the activity date, so if you had toolbar usage prior to the start of the promo, it may post with an activity date too early even if you earned additional miles after 9/14. If so, you'll need to earn another mile in October.
No miles for me yet, but the site seems to be running slow. Everyone keeps refreshing to see if their miles are there. I should have 8 hits.

For what it's worth, some random stuff is trickling in midday... My DM Shopping hit just posted...about an hour after the GS bonuses posted.

The Marriott promo is a good deal and I've arranged a trip in Nov to be held at 2 different Marriotts in the same city to get 4000 bonus points plus the 2 hits. Both rooms are between $100 and $105 + tax.
