If you restart it immediately, and the unit seems like it is just starting, it may be the charge capacitor is shorting out, or there is excessive gate leakage of the thyristor

    Both of these are internal parts.

SOURCE: I have a canon 40D and a speedlite 580 second sync not working

If you are not in P, AV, TV or M then the camera will not allow that feature. The picture modes disable many higher, more sophistocated features.

Canon Powershot G2. Why won't it turn on even though battery has been charged?

If it have't turned on, how do you know that battery is charged? Maybe battery too low and has no power to turn on your device.

Get an electronic tester and check the output of you battery

How do I use this flash as a slave?

You need to set the flash to slave and the same channel as the master. If the flash doesn't have this function it may be able to be fired optically. Set the master flash to low power and set the off camera flash to optical.

Instructions for using power shot 580

The Canon PowerShot A580 uses two standard AA batteries. You may use disposables or rechargeables, though if the latter then they must be charged outside the camera using a separate charger.

You may download the manual and more from http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/digital_cameras/powershot_a_series/powershot_a580#BrochuresAndManuals

580ex off camera shuts down after a minute or so of standby

No and no, the flash is by default programed to shut off after 1 minute .If you were using the flash on-camera, the flash would automatically power itself on when camera activity is detected but when the flash is detached, it doesn't wake back up.
To change this you have to turn off the auto shut off in the flash menu:
1. Power the flash on
2. Hold down the back light /C.Fn button until "Fn 00 0" appears on the screen
3. Rotate the selector wheel until you see "Fn 01 0"
4. Press your selector button down so that the 0 begins flashing
5. Rotate your selector wheel to change the 0 to a 1
6. Rotate the selector to the "Fn 14 0" position and set it to 1

7. Press your selector button to save this parameter
8. Press your Mode button to return to the main screen

Now your flash stays on as long as the flash switch is turned on ON, and as long as you have juice in the batteries.

Do not forget to turn off the flash after you are done.You can reverse it anytime, but you have to read the manual for that..

Same setup can be found in the manual

The main batter will not hold its charge when left in the camera.

After 12 months use camera batteries will not hold a true charge, but they can still be used for clocks, or remotes. Buy new ones. We all have the same problem.
