Everytime I have a dream where I need to call someone for help I run into the same problem. I can't dial... my fingers slip off the numbers or hit the numbers too many times... or I dial it backwards.such as 911. It ALWAYS happens.
I also have other dreams where I am spinning out of control. I jump and I can't land... I just spin fast and feel very scared... or I just fall to the ground and spin around uncontrollably. I know I am unable to control my dreams (I don't know how) but what could this mean?

But still you are trying to control them.
During sleep body motor functions get "disconnected" so to speak. If they don't then sleepwalking occurs. Nevertheless in dreams we do things and the brain tries to perform those actions as it does while you're awake. Actually REM activity is due to your brain trying to "see" what is happening in your dreams.
Now the other way around. If you do not sleep properly then you will try to perform body activities during your dreams. You can't, but your inability to do so will affect the "plot" you are dreaming. You interfere and turn a normal dream into a nightmare.
In short, you can't dial a number or land or stop spinning because you are trying to do so with your body instead of doing it in within your dream world. You must let go and work on a deep sleep.
Is that clear?

It sounds as though you are having problems in your life, and feel helpless to deal with them, but you have trouble communicating to your friends and loved ones that you are having these problems. If you can't open up to your family about what is going on, perhaps you would benefit from private counseling for awhile.

May be that you don't feel in control in your own life.
