In the "Usage --> Tags" section of the manual, is that section referring to tags files as created by, say, the exuberant ctags program? Or does Geany have some additional notion of "tags"? If so, what's Geany's distinction between the two?
Geany can generate its own global tags files, since 0.11 (see the 'Generating a global tags file' Tags subsection). They are incompatible with ctags tags files.
Perhaps what's confusing is where it says you can download or create your own global tags files. Currently you can't really download them, but the plan was/is to put tags files for common libraries available on the web somewhere, probably linked from Geany's web site.
