If you make them countesses first, then they will get to pick their husbands, not you.
It's a way of checking that you have a particular version of the game loaded. For example, the base game might give you WFBW, whereas a mod will give you THFN. Useful for confirming that you've downloaded and installed a mod or patch correctly.
I'm playing as Habsburgs, after growth inside HRE, most dukes selected me to became HRE heir, but I don't want this.
Any advice?

You should have no issue arranging matrilineal marriages with your own courtiers. One technique to expand one's dynasty---albeit somewhat gamey---is to invite male claimants to other titles to your court, arrange a matrilineal marriage to one of your female dynasty members, then wage war to install the claimant. If all goes successfully, the title will remain within your dynasty (assuming male issue), and you will have an ally for generations.
Stupid question: How do I appoint an antipope? I'm tired of being excommunicated... BTW, I already have free investiture, but can't find the option of the antipope.
Go to religion screen, below pope are all your bishops, if you have a Bishop that has a higher opinion of you than he does of the pope you can click the highlighted Mitre Hat button to create antipope.
Let's say I am Castile and I want to acquire some land from France via inheritance and skulduggery. How exactly do I setup a marriage with the target duke or count in my favor? I have tried marrying my family members to target countesses, and then assassinating them and their heirs until there is no one left, and sometime I end up getting the land and sometimes I do not.
You should not assassinate the countess until you have a child with her. Then that child inherits both titles. A title holder without an heir will have his liege as heir.
Hito: Your location and religion.
Every merc-company has a capital, depending how far away from that one you are located you can hire them or not.
I'm trying to fabricate a claim, is this only possible for individual counties or can I get more brave and fabricate a claim to an entire Kingdom? Bought this game about a week ago, so trying to get a grip of it!
You can only fabricate claims on counties and with a good chancellor sometimes on a duchy. But never on a kingdom.
Be a female ruler. The HRE has agnatic elective succession law, women can't be selected.
If my Character changes culture do i lose culture specific buildings?
Also what causes my character to change culture?
Also what causes my character to change culture?
Yes.
Child's tutor can cause child to change to tutor's culture. Also, vassal can convert to his / her liege's culture.
Thanks
Does this make culture specific building a bit worthless. A huge potential loss of gold over one event.

Well, if you are careful, your successor's culture is easily controllable.
Will have to pay more attention to successors tutor in the future never even checked before
