re cable position: was the car in P when you started? if you didnt pull on the shifter cable, you should still be in P on the transmission itself so the cable wont come out any farther. you could go change the gear position on the transmission itself by hand to allow the cable to come back farther. but this shouldn't be necessary.
re shifter position: are you saying you cannot get the shifter itself to go back to P position so that you can mate the ball joint on the cable with the shifter pin/ball?
when you say you tried releasing the shift lever lock, did you mean you used say a small screwdriver to pull back the P lock catch in the shifter that usually is released with the coil when you depress the brake pedal? if you release that lock by hand then the shifter should slide out of P but you need to do this only when in P and it sounds like you are in N. did you pull up on the hand release in the handle itself? if you did and it wont go past N could there be something that got in there to obstruct it's movement? make sure you are pulling up on the shifter hand release which is required to get back to R from N I believe. I dont think it's required to go N->D->2->1. but going from R<-N I think you have to pull up on the hand release. you probably do it out of no thought and habit normally.
I'll check back tomorrow AM with you.
