Finding My Way Back into Photography

I did a LOT of photo work when I was younger, shooting with a Konica TC and later added an FT1, both of which I still have. I've been using a Canon Powershot SD1400 for a while now, but never got the pictures I knew I could. Last week I decided to buy a Canon T3 with the standard lens and then I ordered the 70-300 IS lens and the Speedlite 430ex II.  After my first foray into shooting a concert for a women's choral group, I sold the T3 to my brother and ordered the T3i. I know it's not much of an upgrade, but I could have really used the versatile live view screen the night of the concert, and more megs is always nice.

With the T3, the only fault I have found thus far is the focusing.  I have switched to manual focusing until I figure out the trick. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
