the umbrellas I have used at the photo school I attend, but they are soooo simple. All they are is what appears to be a regular umbrella with a shaft and no handle. Pop it open like a regular umbrella, but the shaft in the hole on the studio light, and start shooting. This, not so much. :D
If you want to use them the same way, put in the inner support rod (the hollow thing), screw it in to catch the hole, then put the solid rod in, put the solid rod in your strobe like a regular umbrella...
Thanks kenyee. Surprisingly to especially myself, I actually got it set up and figured out with one small problem. Even though the directions mention the ability to do something so it is "ready" the next time you want to use it, I couldn't get that part figured out. To collapse the umbrella, you have to loosen the set screw so much the shafts fall out, meaning you have to start from scratch each time, which really is time consuming. But I could easily be doing something wrong. I hope these umbrellas make that much difference in the quality of the images.
Thanks again for the input.
