Answer 1

You are manually placing the caption within your tabular. If you want it to a) span the whole width and b) be right aligned, you could use a \multicolumn. Alternatively you could simply place a real caption outside the tabular.

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}

\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{ltablex, booktabs}
\renewcommand{\tabularxcolumn}[1]{>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}m{#1}}
\usepackage[margin=1in,headsep=.15in]{geometry}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}
{>{\hsize=1.3\hsize}X>{\hsize=0.7\hsize}X}

\multicolumn{2}{r}{\textbf{Caption}} \\ \midrule \endfirsthead

\textbf{Caption} \\ \midrule \endhead \bottomrule \endfoot

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\textbf{Title} & \\hline

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

TextTextTextTextTextTextText&TextTextTextTextTextTextText\\myhdashline
TextTextTextTextTextTextText & TextTextTextTextTextTextText
\\myhdashline TextTextTextTextTextTextText &
TextTextTextTextTextTextText

\end{tabularx}

\end{document}
