Article III judges belonging to the federal Judicial Branch (US District Courts, US Court of International Trade, US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts, and the Supreme Court of the United States) are entitled to serve "during good behavior," which means "for life," unless the judge or justice commits an impeachable offense.
Article I federal judges typically serve renewable 15-year terms. Examples of Article I courts are the US Court of Federal Claims, US Tax Court, US Bankruptcy Court, etc.
States make their own rules about the terms of office and conditions under which their judges may serve, so the answer to this part of the question is variable.

Federal court judges are appointed by the president.
Federal judges and justices are not simply appointed by the President. Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the US Constitution gives the President the power to nominate candidates for judicial positions subject to the advice and consent of the Senate. Once the nomination is made, the Senate holds confirmation hearings. If the Senate approves the nomination, the nominee is appointed to the position. If the Senate disapproves the nomination the nominee is not appointed.
Federal judges are nominated by the President, but must be approved by a simple majority vote (51%) of the Senate.
While the President is always active in the selection of US Supreme Court justices and judges for the US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts, District Court judges are often suggested by Senators and accepted as a matter of Senatorial courtesy.
The President picks them and the Senate confirms the President's nomination.
