I forgot some of the special rules about many shot. I know critical and sneak attack only apply for the first arrow but what about special abilities, like weapon focus, or weapon enchantment, how about streangth on a composite bow, do they stack to one or all arrows?

Str, weapon focus (that goes on bow), and +X to bow all affect as they are on bow.
Critical/sneak attack are precision damage. In Volley attacks (like Manyshot) it happens to first target.

Regardless of the number of arrows you fire, you apply precision-based damage only once. If you score a critical hit, only the first arrow fired deals critical damage; all others deal regular damage.

That only applies to precision based damage (critical, sneak attack, etc). Everything else functions normally

Edit: Curses, beaten to the punch!
