I am so clueless.

This is the most recent thing i have been told to check. Ac breaker flipping. I changed air filters, and had a friend who does maintenance at a apartment complex check the ac and said the compressor was oka y, and the freon level was okay. Its running all day. Cool air coming out, but not cold. A/c doesn't shut off all day trying to cool the house, shuts off in the middle of the night. I just moved here and cannot afford right now for a a/c tech to come out. Please tell me any ideas on what the problem could be. Thank you.

usually any inline filter installed will be outside next to the condensing unit..usually a liquid line filter is on the smaller of the two lines but there could also be one on the suction line the bigger of the two lines...if either one of these is on there..normally if they are stopped up that would indicate a problem with your ac system and probably that your compressor is going down....if your ac is not cooling well check and see if it is freezing up on the coil at the inside unit...there could also be ice on the larger of the two lines at the condensing unit....it could also be possible the unit just is not big enough to cool your home on a 90 degree plus day...there are lots of reasons a ac will not cool a home well even if it is not freezing up...

I don't see a problem. It's been extremely hot and a lot of AC units are marginally sized. It's going to run most of the day if not all day.
Some people install a liquid line filter. It's the smaller of the 2 lines coming from your furnace. Not everyone uses these filters, unless there has been some previous work done to the unit. As far as where it is located......you just have to follow the line from the furnace to the AC unit. Different people put them in different locations depending on the application.

It could be anywhere in the high pressure line. It will most likely be near the "A" coil. It all depends on the installer.

If you can't afford for a Tech, be prepared to pay for the electrical bill that would More than a service call.

I agree with fordman, but it can also be on the high pressure line outside by the condenser.
