I managed to get the shift back down, it appeared to be jammed. As for the ribbons, the gear in the cup thing appears to be in line with the spring drum, the ribbon release is engaged and when I use the carriage release and move it back and forth the drum and the ribbon does move with the carriage, but the carriage is not advancing when typing. I'm not exactly sure why, as the drum has spring to it and the draw band is intact. I have a thought that it may have missing springs somewhere? It is a machine that appears to have sat for some time.

I press the left release lever to move the carriage and it doesn't seem to have any pressure, it does have pressure when I use the carriage return leaver. I pressed to the left on the right knob and it doesn't move, I press the left knob to the right and it does move to the right. I got ahold of the rod connecting to the spindles and it does rotate the ribbons.

It sounds like it might be both the escapement and the mainspring.  If you feel tension when returning the carriage, you should also feel tension when moving it back to the left.  Not entirely sure why you’re not.  Try placing a drop of oil on the escarpment, right between the star wheel and the pinion wheel.  The two of them are sandwiched together and sometimes get gummy.  Just move the carriage back and forth to feee things up.  Also, make sure the spring drum is free to rotate and test the right carriage release leaver.
When you press on the right knob, it shouldn’t move unless you’re typing.  You’re basically just trying to simulate what it might be like if the drawband was pulling all the way.
If the escapement works, and the gears and drum are free to move, try winding the drum up.  From zero tension, it should be wound about four times before being attached to the carriage.  More adjustments can be done afterwards.
