Manufacturers.php is not included in CDSEO url's so I can't customize any metatag;

You would have to manually customize this page. It doesn't have an associated ID so isn't done in CDSEO.

Both Google and Bing are still picking up the same page with and without the trailing slashes, causing duplicate content warning;

Pages with sessions for some (not all) products are appearing as duplicate content on Google and Bing;

CDSEO's use of the canonical link tag should prevent this. It may just be a matter of time before these are flushed out of the indexes but you'll want to keep an eye on them.

Some pop-up image (Detailed Image) pages are being indexed with the same meta tags as the whole site causing duplicate meta tag warnings;

Whatever url these are being generated from (presumably popup_image.php) should be blocked in robots.txt. If you just recently added that robots.txt file it will take some time (especially with Bing) before they are deindexed.

In Google there are 362 pages leading to 404 errors. These have had their url modified in text or by removing the html extension and adding a trailing slash. Some are categories that went from .html to just /. Some are the category or manufacturer pages plus an extension, for example "necklaces-pendants/index4.html?js=n" What would be the recommended way to handle these redirects? The pages do exist but their url's changed after we went from the 4.1.9 version to 4.4.5 and upgraded CDSEO.

If you've changed the urls and not used the CDSEO interface to do so, you'll have to specify 301 redirects in .htaccess:
Redirect 301 /old-url.html
