Chappelle is married (notice the ring), so why would he say he has no family? [He might be keeping the ring on even though his wife may be dead or have left him, or he didn't want to burden Jack with any kind of guilt.]

Day 3: 4:00 A.M.-5:00 A.M. (series 3)
Michelle and her staff sealed the hotel to keep the virus inside. But when the angry guest smashes the door to get out (so Michelle has to shoot him) no-one acts to seal the broken door. [Viruses are very fragile and the reason the hotel was contained was not to keep the virus itself in but to keep all the guests in. They seal it off camera, though, to keep the guests from trying to escape that way.]

Day 3: 7:00 P.M.-8:00 P.M. (series 3)
Tony is discharged from the hospital and back at CTU in under 20 minutes, this is far faster than it could possibly in real life, considering CTU is at least 15 minutes drive away. It takes a long time to check out of hospital - forms to sign and so on. [Seeing how he is the director of CTU. I'm sure he has special previleges. Besides, his wife would have given verbal approval to have him check out ASAP and maybe sign forms later.]

In the first half of the season it takes only minutes to determine whether or not someone is infected with the virus. When Michelle is at the hotel it takes three hours. [They were checking only a couple people on the spot. At the hotel they were checking hundreds of people and had to send the material away to a lab. Travel time accounts for a lot of the extra time.]
Chloe tells Kim that she's known and worked with Chase for three years, and we know from Chase's history that at least the past 12 months were at CTU. Now if Chloe had worked there for a year wouldn't people know that she did not have a baby daughter? [She worked with Chase for 3 years at CTU Washington D.C. She didn't necessarily mean the past three years.]
Day 4: 6:00 A.M.-7:00 A.M. (series 4)
Marwan's hi-tech gadget which he uses to track the path of his missile (the 'interface' of which CTU later reads to locate said rocket) is quite obviously a Nokia 7710. I don't remember seeing 'Nuclear Warhead Locator' listed in the special features of this model. [Like all new Nokia mobiles, one of key features of the 7710 is that it is Java enabled. This means any Java application can be programmed and loaded onto the phone. It is very possible one of Marwan's men programmed a tracking program for that phone.]
Day 4: 5:00 A.M.-6:00 A.M. (series 4)
When Mandy is talking to Tony in the apartment she says that two years ago he risked Michelle's life (in season 3). Three years seperated seasons 2 & 3 making this five years since season 2. However when Aaron is talking to the president in the next episode he mentions the attack on his life took place four years ago. [The season timeline is NOT wrong. Aaron said "four and a half years ago". The time difference between season 3 & 4 is 18 months, Series 3 takes place in september, placing Series 4 in march two years later.]
Day 4: 1:00 A.M.-2:00 A.M. (series 4)
The last thing we saw at the end of the previous episode was Jack knocking out the terrorist suspect, who was tied up in the van outside CTU, before the clock ticked to 1am. At the beginning of this episode, which supposedly picks up the instant the previous one ends, the terrorist is in CTU medical receiving treatment. and he's fully conscious. [At least 2 minutes passes between the end of an episode and the start of the next one, every time. More then enough time passed to allow the changes you described to happen.]

Day 4: 11:00 P.M.-12:00 A.M. (series 4)
When the couple is in the plant they call Jack on the cellphone, he instructs them to open the case and separate the book from the activation device. This was stupid, he should have told them to destroy it, since the codes had changed the moment Airforce one crashed, and it would take about 1 hour to make this work. This is explained later on in the show. [Stupidity is not a mistake by the standards of this site.]

Day 4: 10:00 P.M.-11:00 P.M. (series 4)
Airforce One was chased and shot down by an F-117A stealth bomber by a disgruntled marine aiding the terrorists. The F-117 is not a stealth fighter. It carries Air-ground missiles and air-ground bombs but it cannot be modified to carry air-air missiles due to its down looking radar (which is probably why no missile type was named specifically). [I am a pilot in the Air Force and I know for a fact that an F-117A is a stealth fighter, and is absolutely capable of launching air-to-air missiles.]
Day 4: 9:00 P.M.-10:00 P.M. (series 4)
Audrey came to CTU after Chloe had been let go. Yet in this episode they both know each other by their first names. [Audrey is the Secretary of Defence's daughter and they may have come across each other in the time before the 4th day starts. This could explain how they know each others first name. We just don't know it.]
In the opening summary Jack is shown telling Audrey that "It happened so fast, [Paul] was hit before I had a chance to react" in the episode before. We saw their whole conversation in that episode and this line was never spoken. [The "Previously On 24" opening segments frequently use footage that was not actually seen on-screen during an episode. It's usually of things that happened during the commercial break or when some other location or event was on-screen.]
Day 4: 8:00 P.M.-9:00 P.M. (series 4)
From the time Michelle calls Chloe till Chloe shows up at CTU with changed clothes and fresh make-up only seven minutes pass on the show. That wouldn't be possible even if she lived next door. [Actually, many women can change clothes and do make-up in remarkably fast time, especially at times of great crisis, in which this would apply. It was previously established that Chloe does live close and is a highly dedicated and loyal employee making this is indeed possible.]

Day 4: 3:00 P.M.-4:00 P.M. (series 4)
When Jack enters the hospital he speaks to an officer. The officer tells him there's been a shooting. After this conversation Jack calls Tony, telling him Navi killed his wife’s brother. How does he know the killed person was Dina's brother? [Dina told Jack that Behrooz was at the hospital earlier in the episode, and informed him that her brother had worked there.]

Throughout this show, it is apparently possible to drive between any two locations in the Los Angeles area within half an hour. It takes Jack approximately half an hour to drive from the downtown train station where he sees Khalil lead Andrew away to isolated areas that seem to be at the edge of the city (we hear it is Ventura County). Even if the streets were empty, the Los Angeles area is large enough that this would not be possible in real life. [The producers always made a huge point about being accurate about distances and time, and it is doubtful that they dropped this for season 4. The trainstation in question is not the central city's central station, but one of the suburbs.]
It is not clear what time during the year this particular day takes places. It is a weekday, which we know the office in which Jack secures the override device from Habib is filled with workers. However, neither Behrooz nor Debbie go to school. It cannot be summertime because the sun sets before 7PM which is not realistic. At the same time, there is a school bus in the scene where Jack is following the terrorist Khalil toward the location where Heller and Audrey are being held hostage. If its during spring or winter break the bus would not be there. [Private schools and public schools can have spring break on different dates. And school buses can be used for organized trips, not necessarily on days when school is in session. There is not enough in this submission to justify that a mistake was made.]
Day 5: 10:00 PM - 11:00 PM (series 5)
Audrey Raines tells Jack she was in River Hotel with Walt Cummings just after he got divorced. But when he committed suicide, they invited his wife. [Walt was separated from his wife when he met Audrey at the River Hotel. He was still legally married to Suzanne. ]
