Default Power Window/Mirror problems! HELP!

Howdy y'all.

I have just bought a 99 lude, and I am looking for some help. She's a lovely auto, only has about 58K on her tranny, and she is a total whoot on the track...yep, bought her yesterday, and tracked her today...so mechanically she is rocking, but she does have 3 minor issues I was hoping you could help me with....

1. My driver side mirror does not go up/down, only left/right...when I try to adjust it electronically, I hear a whirring noise as the motor tries to link up and move the mirror, but it just whirs and whirs....until I move the mirror with my fingers, and it moves freely...is this a motor issue, or perhaps a stripped gear?

2. Same side, driver power window CHATTERS when going down on the auto mode..if I click the window down, it does go down, but it's choppy and takes time....plus is quite unsightly. Should I get the window motor replaced, and if I do, should I do the work myself?

3. My A/C blows.....warmish air. It is cool, but definitely not as cold as you expect. I also notice when sitting at idle, the A/C struggles to keep up, and makes the car shudder...dropping my idle rpm down to about 400, and threatens to kill the car completely. I think the compressor may be shot, and I also need a recharge on my system. I don't want to spend tons of money, as summer is almost over, but I am wondering what it might cost to get my a/c cared for....I might need 1 lb of coolant in the system!??

Thanks y'all for the help!
Cheers,
B~
