How does one jump start a vehicle?

In order to jump start a vehicle one will require jumper cables. The cables are then attached with the red cable being clamped onto the positive terminal of the car with the dead battery and the car that is providing the boost. The black clamp is placed on the negative terminal of the car that is boosting and the other end is connected to any unpainted metal surface in the engine compartment of the dead car. The car providing the boost is then started and once the boosting car is started one can start the vehicle needing the boost. Leave the vehicle running and disconnect the cables.

If you left the car lights on all night and the car doesn't start It worked fine last night so what do I do?

You need to charge your battery/boost your car. Turn off the car lights and then do one of the following: 1) Call a service truck to give you a boost. 2) Find a friend with some booster cables and give it a boost. 3) Hook the battery up to a charger and let it charge for a while, and then start it up. Directions for #2 should be in the car's instruction manual.

Car goes click click when you try to start but turns over with a boost?

The battery does not have sufficient voltage to start the car when it's cold. Have the battery checked out. If it still goes click click after running the car for a while, have the alternator checked also. A bad battery will not hold a charge and a bad alternator will not recharge the battery, (That is the reason to have the battery checked first). Make sure the connections at the battery are clean and tight.
