Good question.
1) Without this, much else doesn't seem to matter - I'm not trying to be cheesy, but if someone would find a way to persuade all of us tolerate each other and live collectively in peace, it would be a good start.
2) They should resolve all the technical problems with fusion power generation and finally get it working so we could all have abundant, free and clean energy.
3) Interstellar travel that doesn't require vast amounts of time to traverse distant points would be appealing. Worm-holes and folding of space allow for it in theoretical physics, but we just don't have the know-how and technology to achieve it yet.
4) Instant knowledge and education on a microchip that can be safely implanted in our brains would allow all of us to be equally competitive in the world.
5) Now that we have the human genome mapped, using that knowledge they should work on finding a cure for every known ailment.
6) I'm NOT opting for a "time-machine" because I think history unfolds as it should. Messing with history presents a whole plethora of potential horrors. Tinkering with the past to improve things in the present can potentially also be very destructive. Best to leave it alone. My philosophy is, regardless of how bad you think things are or were, it can always be far worse. Be content with what you have.
I'm probably describing Eutopia to some extent. The trouble with Eutopia is that if there was such a thing, we'd all be there and it wouldn't be Eutopia any more.

A Star Trek style replicator/ food dispenser:
replicator
Episode: TNG 165 - Sins of the Father
Devices derived from transporter technology to dematerialize matter and then reconstitute it in another form.
Replicators, in use since the early 24th century, are most commonly used as food dispensers aboard Federation starships. The menu is only limited by the programming, as opposed to the days of carrying natural or reconstituted foodstuffs with delivery by special turbolifts or transporters.
Generally replicated food and "natural" food taste the same, though some people claim to be able to detect a difference. For instance, Captain Picard kept real caviar stored for special occasions since he felt replicated caviar was inferior to the real thing.
