A number of presidents have served a full two terms, including Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Grant, Cleveland, Wilson, Eisenhower, Reagan, Clinton, and Bush Jr. If you meant to ask who was the only president to serve two non-consecutive terms, then the answer is Grover Cleveland.
That's correct. He served three complete terms and died a few months into a fourth.
No, Justice Sonia Sotomayor is the third woman appointed to the US Supreme Court. President Reagan appointed Sandra Day O'Connor as the first woman to serve on the Court in 1981; President Clinton appointed Ruth Bader Ginsberg in 1993; President Obama appointed Sonia Sotomayor in 2009 and Elena Kagan in 2010.

Probably Eleanor Roosevelt. Her husband Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only president to serve four terms. And while he died in the midst of his fourth, Eleanor was first lady throughout his first three terms (12 years) and several years into his fourth. It should be noted that no first lady will ever serve for that long again. In 1951, the constitution was amended so that presidents may not serve more than two terms.
Eight years is the limit for most Presidents. However, it theoretically possible for a President who was first a vice-president who finished out another person's term with two years left to serve for 10 years by being elected to two more terms of his own.An American president can serve two terms, or up to eight years in office by today's standards. There was a president who served four terms, but after his presidencies the constitution was amended so that they could only serve two terms.

Franklin Roosevelt was the only president to serve or run for more than 2 terms. He died before he completed his fourth term. George Washington probably could have served for as many terms as he wished, but he refused to serve a third term and that set a precedent which everybody honored until FDR broke it. Now there is a constitutional amendment that disallows a third term.
There is no term limit on Vice Presidents (at least in the US). However, the Vice President must be eligible to be President, so no one who has reached the limit of two terms as President may be Vice President.
