I was wondering how one lists these research experiences--they are not the most special of circumstances but I have never had to list them on my CV or residency app before so I wanted some advice on how to do it properly.

1. Abstract accepted at conference, but I was not the one presenting it. How do you list it so it doesnt appear that you presented it? In addition, I'm not the first author.

2. If I submit a manuscript prior to residency application, is it legit to put that on the ERAS application? Is it meaningful? What if the manuscript is still being written--any way to put this on the app before it has been submitted? "manuscript in progress" is that even a thing?
 
1. Just cite it in your abstracts section per normal. It will be evident based on the order of authors that you didn't present it.

2. You can list whatever you want. In ERAS, there is a section for "Manuscripts (other than published)" where you can list things that are submitted or in progress. I doubt these matter much, but if they are accepted while you are interviewing it will be easier for the interviewer to refer to the paper you're talking about. It can also give them a sense of the things you're working on. For your CV, you can have a whole section for manuscripts submitted or in progress. Again, don't expect anybody to take these super seriously, but they can be helpful for showcasing you research interests.

Agreed
