They can change conditions upon renewal. Not sure if they can do this if it is not on the lease. Read your lease: it may be that they failed to collect it at the time.
If an apartment is reserved for you, because you paid a security deposit, that means that the landlord is not able to rent it to anyone else. Hence, when you then decide not to move in after all, the landlord has still lost the rent which he might have collected by renting that apartmnent to a different renter. So yes, he can withhold the deposit. It is not a good idea to make a deposit on an apartment that you are not actually going to move into.
If your landlord won't give you your deposit or last month's rent back you need to take him to small claims court. The judge will then decide who gets what. Your landlord has the right to keep your deposit if you violate the terms of your lease, including, but not limiting to terminating it early without good cause. He doesn't have the right, however, to keep your last month's rent as a security deposit.
Most states have a statute which limits the amount of a security deposit, usually to one month's rent.
That depends, if in your lease agreement it states that you cannot get out until the end of the term then you cannot get out of your lease legally. Although, you can always approach your Landlord, plead your case, and see if he grants you a little mercy and lets you out.
If you left the apartment/house clean and with no damage he should give it back to you when you move. If you didn't give him 30 days notice or left it a mess he can keep the deposit to clean and as a month's rent. If you feel he is withholding it and owes it to you take him to small claims court and let a judge decide.
Well, if no one has a copy of the lease then it cannot be enforced. Before you decide to breach it you should make certain there is no copy and you provide a thirty day notice in writing if you decide to move out. You should try to leave on good terms with the landlord. You should also leave the premises clean, in good repair, leave no trash, and take lots of photos that show carpets, fixtures, sinks, toilets, tubs, counters, doors, appliances, etc., all in good condition and clean so that you will be entitled to get your security deposit back. Many landlords go after tenants for costly damages when they vacate the premises.
As long as the notice is sufficient, and there is no unexpired lease, the landlord can ask a tenant to leave for no reason at all.
