I noticed that my ac is not cooling.. It will blow warm air and the heater will work, but it does not cool. I do not know anything about a/c's. Could someone please tell me what may be wrong with it. I don't really have the money right now to call someone... Any info would be helpful~

By your description, the problem could be just about anything. But here are three things a homeowner should check out before calling a service tech: Airflow, airflow, and airflow. Airflow is critical to proper operation.
Anything which slows the flow of air through the indoor unit or the outdoor unit should be cleaned and checked. Make sure return air grilles are not blocked and supply air vents are not closed. Replace the air filter, make sure the blower wheel is clean, hose down the outdoor coil and clean the fan blade if needed.
When you are done with all that, check the temperatures of the air entering and leaving the indoor unit, as well as the temperatures of the air entering and leaving the outdoor unit. Let us know what those temperatures are.
