Hi Neil
Basically you're stuffed. Why do they insist on using those stupid little disks when no slot-loading cd player can actually use them.
I did actually find this full manual on the net.

Testimonial: "Hi hamster I'm with you on what you say about the discs. But that's great about finding the manual. I couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks very Neil"

My flash will not flash. I have put in new batteries. The units responds to TTL and menu commands and switches on perfectly. Even the pilot lamp goes to green, however the bounce flash and fill flash do...

Mine does the same after 10 or 15 flashes. It gives you the impression that its drained the batteries, but I doubt it. I have a feeling its some short-circuit or overheating.

How to setup the canon 50 d to nissin di566 digital flash?

First check trigger voltage. This flash was not made for your camera. Just set camera to M, not Tv, Av.P. Set Shutter to 250 or less Set F Stop until you see correct exposure.
Get the Nissin Di866. I've sold and have some modification on this model. It's more powerful than the Canon 580EX II.
The cheaper model is Nissin Di622, which I also sells/services/supports.

Bought a Micron GX3 off Ebay. One month later,

NO!! That's not reasonable, and the seller knows it!! I'm an avid ebayer and if they're going to try to charge you to make it right, you should file a Paypal or Ebay Resolution claim today, or the seller will draw it out until the 60 days has passed and you'll have no recourse at all. (I assume you've already left positive feedback by now).
If this has been over 60 days, pay him the $60. You can get the labor cheaper, but not with the part included. Pay him through Paypal so you can keep the option of a new claim
