Beginners nightmare

I am a beginner in the making of bread and starter.  Nothing is turning out.  My starter was bubbling .  I would stir ir and refresh it then it stopped rising.  So I thought it was done.  used it in a recipe for squaw bread and it wouldn't rise.  I put aside the starter and used rapid rise yeast and again no rising of the dough.  Can the temperature of the house make a difference in the rising of bread dough or starter? If there is anyone out there HELP.
