Most common reason is a faulty blend door under the dash.
The blend doors direct air thru the vents and also control temp.
You may need a shop manual to diagnose the actual problem and repair it.

SOURCE: ac compressor cuts on and off and no cool air blows out .

Too many reasons why but it probably needs to go in for repair. compressors will cycle on and off if the system is under or over filled. If there is a flow restriction, a collapsed high pressure hose, clog somewhere in the system(some vehicle owners put sealant or refrigerant with sealant in it) bad idea. Good luck.

SOURCE: Air only blows to defrost

The problem is with the blower door actuator. It's vacuum driven and controls the air flow from the defrosters, vents, and floor. With the AC on, open the hood and check the lines (very skinny rubber lines) at the firewall in front of the passenger and work back ward. You're looking/listening for a vacuum leak, either a pinhole or maybe a worn end in need of repair.

SOURCE: AC blows hot air but AC compressor works

if the compressor works and your freon is charged it may be the blower flapper door....disconnect battery for 10 minutes and then re-connect to reset the electronics that control the flapper

SOURCE: Ac blows through defrost only

Your Heater and A/C system is designed to fail in defrost mode. Look for vac issues, and cable issues.

Vents won't blow hot or cold air. Comes from defrost and feet when you put fan on.
It's the vent actuator, it moves the baffle that changes the direction of the air flow.
Here is a video of a broken vacuum hose that creates the same problem.

It could also be a failed actuator.

AC is only blowing through the defrost vents in the dashboard?
I think your problem is the head unit that selects where the air comes out ie. Face, floor, defrost, or hi-level face and floor. If that's not working then it will not let you switch location that you want the air to come out.
