What advice? Without context, it's hard to tell what you mean.
Also, I'm unfamiliar with "the Update Manager"; never heard of it. And
more details on what's wrong with Synaptic might be good. Does it not
start? Does it error out? If the latter, what's the error? That sort of
thing.
Also, please don't top-post.
And finally, the joke about the niece's career in church .... It took me
a while to figure out, not being of a background familiar with "Primate"
in a church context. After figuring that out, "Good zing, Hendrik!"

Whenever I try to open the SynapticPackage Manager, I get:
An error occured
The following details are provided:
E: Type 'http://www.debian-multimedia.org' is not known on line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.
Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem.
So, I go to the repository, nothing appears wrong. When I reload, I get:
The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences.
then,
E: Type 'http://www.debian-multimedia.org
' is not known on line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: Unable to lock the list directory
