When was the tenor clef discontinued?
At no point since the introduction of clefs in diatonic Western music has the tenor clef been discontinued. The tenor clef, which uses the fourth line of the stave (that is, fourth from bottom), to represent Middle C, is frequently used for upper-register woodwind instruments such as the bassoon, euphonium, and trombone. When used to represent pitches from the double bass, the notes produced from the instrument sound an octave lower than printed.
Do all woodwind instruments use the treble clef?
That depends on the instrument. For example, trumpet music is typically written in treble clef, while trombone and tuba music is in bass clef. And, of course, variations on instruments (bass trumpet) can differ from the convention.
What intrument in the orchestra uses the tenor c clef?
Several instruments make use of both bass and tenor clefs. The most common ones I can think of presently are the cello and the bassoon. Much of the time, music is written in bass clef, but can change when the passage to be played moves up to a higher register where tenor clef would be appropriate.

How can I effectively transpose music written in the tenor clef to the treble clef?
To transpose music from the tenor clef to the treble clef, you need to move all notes up a major 9th (or down a minor 3rd). This means that if a note is on a line in the tenor clef, it will move to the space above it in the treble clef, and if a note is in a space in the tenor clef, it will move to the line above it in the treble clef.
