My windshield wiper comes off the glass halfway up the window What is the problem?

This can be as simple as your wiper blades are worn out (they get stiff over time and won't hug the glass) or as technical as a wiper arm problem.
First, I'd check that the wiper arm moves freely up and away from the glass and I'd move it up and down several times. Note, you should feel spring tension as you move it down towards the glass. Most times moving it back and forth frees-up any bind that may be in the arm.
While you're doing this, make sure your wiper blades pivot and move on the end of the wiper arm. They should move very freely. Also check to make sure that they're simply not super cold, frozen and stiff. This is common during the winter and often frozen and stiff blades will miss parts of the windshield.
Lastly, wiper blades effectively work for 6-12 months. If your wiper blades are older than that and all of the above seems fine, you probably just need new wiper blades.

Vent on my areostar does not work only air comes out defroster?
The doors under the dash are the problem. It could be them or the actuators. When something goes wrong with the system the default is to provide defrost so that at least in the winter or if the windshield fogs up it will clear the windshield.

Windshield washer spray nozzles, or just simply nozzles.
Hey my friend drive a 1996 toyota celica and she turns the heat on drives home and then park comes outside next morning and has moisture on windshield but if she leaves her window cracked it dont happ?
Assuming you mean moisture on the INSIDE of the windshield.. it is very most likely a leaking heater core or some other form of coolant leak into the passenger cabin. The reason it doesn't do it when the window is cracked is because it equalizes the temp and humidity on both sides of the glass. That's just basic science. In other words, leaving the window cracked probably has nothing to do with what is involved with the moisture to happen in the first place. It is just treating the symptom and not the problem.
