Car starting problems. Electrical glitch?

2004 Chevy Malibu CLASSIC, 62,100 miles, automatic.
My car has trouble starting. Sometimes it cranks, but doesn't start. I have to keep turning it and turning before it startes. It doesn't appear to be the battery. The "tones" (i.E, seatbelt tone, door ajar tone) now sound totally different. Also, once I unlock my door with my door unlocker, and get in and shut the door, the horn automatically beeps a couple quick times. What could be the problem?

Further, last night I was dropping off movies. My daughter tried to unlock the door to get out (Car was still on, in drive-I had the brake on), and it wouldn't unlock! I had to fiddle with the door locker on my side. So, basically, car won't start sometimes without repeatedly turning the key, and the electrical/power supply to my dash, and even locks, has a mind of its own. HELP!
If I get an answer, I'll make a donation.
