What you have described in post #1 is normal. What happed is: the last time a cable release was threaded into the auxiliary socket on the side of the lens, it was slightly loose. Then it was unscrewed. That leaves the socket in the extended position—which leaves the red line visible and prevents normal shutter release via the main shutter release button.
All you need to do is to thread a cable release into the auxiliary socket and snug it firmly. Then, the socket will retract into the lens barrel and the len’s shutter will return to normal operation when the cable is unscrewed from the auxiliary socket (you can see the socket retract as you unscrew it).
Mirror-Up operation is covered on page 29 in the manual as presented in the following link.
The problem is specifically mentioned in the left-hand column on page 30 under CAUTION.
"If the red line around the Mirror-up Socket is still visible when the cable release is removed, the camera is still set for mirror-up operation. If such is the case, reattach the cable release, making sure that the socket retracts as you remove it once again.”
The key idea is to firmly snug the cable before unscrewing it.
