Default Re: crop up (sentences)

I use this phrasal verb mostly in the sense of appearing occasionally (i.e. from time to time, like in 'her name keeps cropping up in conversation'). But also in the sense of appearing unexpectedly, in ex. "address issues as they crop up".

Theoretically, your sentences sound OK to me.
