You can plug an A port into another A port, as long as the solenoids are actuated simultaneously or not actuated at all. Connections with this problem: A4/B4/A1 and B3/A3/B1. Swap those tee systems around so they are: A4/A3/A1 and B4/B3/B1.
2. Once you fix the problem in 1, that air cylinder should work. Test it by pressing the blue button on solenoid 2. Pressing it in should cause it to change state, releasing it should cause it to return to the previous state. If that works, then your system is physically sound.
If these things don't work for you, the next thing is to take note of your gauge pressures and behaviors and write a detailed narration of what you did, where the air came out of, what the gauges were reading... etc.
