How do you push start a manual transmission car -?

Turn the key to the run position, put the shifter in second. Someone in the car with the clutch pushed in and get the car moving as fast as you can, let the clutch out & leave it out, it will jerk & buck as the motor starts turning & if its going fast enough the motor should fire, then push in the clutch & it should be running. Parking on a hill usually gives you enough of a rolling start to get it to go.

What is wrong when the clutch won't go into gear?

A clutch does not go into gear. A clutch engages, Normally if a clutch fails to engage it is because it is worn. with a worn out clutch you are able to start the car in gear without your foot on the clutch and the car wont move. Normally before this happens you will notice what is known as a slipping clutch. A slipping clutch means that the engine is turning faster than it should to keep the car moving while in gear. once this starts to happen it does not take long for the whole show to come to a stand still.
