I had the same problem.And then it happened....... You have to do it during night,and you there must be a purple light coming from the Altar.Then you place a grand Soul Gem (with or without a soul,it doesn't metter)and cast soul trap.Lowest quality soultrap will do just fine

It doesn't just have to be done at night, it has to be done Either Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday, atleast two of those 3 days are correct, you can tell when to do it because a big light shines on the altar.

Cool! I wish soul gems still said the name of whatever you capture so I could have an "Adoring Fan Soulgem" Also... is there a quest where you learn how to make the gems or do you have to figure it out on your own (this forum?)

If you play through the mages guild... you will learn how they are made. By the time you finish it... you end up with an artifact that randomly creates/fills them whenever you kill an NPC.
What shrine is that? Remember you don't see the special light very well in the daytime if you're close to the altars (at least I don't). You'll have to be some distance away from it.
And there is that note in the game that list all 4 altars. Can't remember which. The one that's called 'handwritten note', or 'hastily scribbled note'? Something like that...
