I am having problems adjusting the aperture when using manual. i can move the shutter speed and iso but not the aperture.What i do is flick to AV change aperture and then flick back to manual, must be a better way.

What position is the on/off switch in? Must be turned up against the white line. In the 'on' position, the rear control dial is disabled (to prevent it being moved accidentally).
 
yes, i have it all the way up to the white line,
 
You probably need to check the configuration of the buttons & dials as you can change which dial does what. Personally I have aperture on the top dial and shutter speed on the rear dial.

I believe that you can tweak the config so in manual you may have an accidentally weird setup.

I have aperture change on top dial and iso on back dial. My MKIII has the same problem
Can you check your mkiii on manual and see what happens
 
Check custom function IV - 5 "Tv/Av setting for manual exposure"
