When you come to an left turn green arrow and it turns but the main light is green do you have to wait for the green light to come on again?

If you are referencing the "green arrow" to come on again, no, but you are suppose to "yield" to oncoming traffic, especially, more than likely, they have a green light to go. For example, if you are heading north in the north lane and a car is heading south on the south lane, but gets in the turning lane to make a left turn and there is no green arrow but their light is green, it is legal to turn, but you have to yield to oncoming traffic, make sure oncoming traffic is clear before you go out in the road. If not, it could cause a major accident.
Added to clarify: If the green left arrow goes out and is replaced by a red left arrow or a red bullseye clearly meant to control the left turn lane, THEN you must wait until the next green arrow in order to make your turn.

When a traffic light shows both a red light and a green light arrow in the direction you wish to turn you?
It means that either turns can be made in the direction shown by the green light or that a stop must be made before turning in the direction shown. Either way, turns are permitted.
When you are under a red light and it turns yellow can make a left turn then?

What do the green arrows mean?
If you are referring to a green arrow pointing upwards at a traffic light then that is pretty much the same thing as a green light signalling for traffic to continue moving forward. Traffic is allowed to move in the direction of the arrow. Commonly used to allow "protected" left turns at an intersection while the red ball prevents traffic from going straight across the intersection.

Do you have to turn right on a red light if you don't want to?
A green light on a traffic light set (in the UK) means automobile traffic is free to go. Walking out when commuter traffic lights are on green is a bad idea. Answer from @MunicipalSigns: In general: A steady GREEN traffic light means you can go through the intersection. You must yield to emergency vehicles and others as required by law. If you are stopped and then the light turns green, you must allow crossing traffic to clear the intersection before you go ahead. A GREEN arrow means you can safely turn in the direction of the arrow. There should be no on-coming or crossing traffic while the arrow is green. If you are turning left, a steady green traffic green light means you may turn but only when safe to do so. Oncoming traffic has the right-of-way. Be alert for signs that prohibit left turns. When turning right or left, watch for pedestrians crossing in front of your vehicle.

What does the blinking yellow arrow on the traffic light mean?
It means that you may make the indicated turn on a permissive basis, after yielding to conflicting vehicles and pedestrians. This is usually the same as turning on the circular green, but the flashing yellow arrow can be displayed at times when the straight ahead movement can not be given a green light. The purpose is to eliminate a dangerous condition called yellow trap. It occurs when the circular green is used to allow permissive turns, and one circular green ends sooner than the oncoming circular green. The left turning driver receiving the earlier yellow light tries to turn across traffic that still has a green light, causing an accident. The flashing yellow arrow can keep flashing until the oncoming green gets a yellow, allowing the driver to turn safely.

If you are in the lane governed by the arrow proceed carefully in the direction of the arrow after yielding the right-of-way to other vehicles and pedestrians.

Can you prefer NOT to turn right on red until the light turns green in Maryland?
Unless there is a sign that specifies "continual turn on red," there is no obligation to make the turn until the light turns green.
