I followed videos tryed looking why its not working but i cannot get them to breed and make me more i made sure i had a farmer, sunlight, doors, and still nothing. The farmer doesnt even plant the plants. These are the pictures of it. Any help would be nice
Did you use a specific video guide? Or did you just try to make it yourself? If you used a video guide, which one was it?
Because as far as I remember. The "doors" for villagers need to have a different amount of space outside the door than the inside (less than 5). And the door has to have a solid block above it, not glass.

From what I can see the doors should be valid; glass is considered to be a transparent block and will not block the view of the sky; I've never had any trouble myself with putting a glass roof over a village. Also, there does not need to be a block above the door; this is a perfectly valid door:
The issue with the farms may have to do with the fact you have multiple crops, as well as wheat, which causes an issue where their inventories become filled up with wheat and bread, making them unable to pick up or plant seeds. Non-farmer villages can also pick up seeds and become unable to pick up bread. See this bug report: MC-74407 Villager inventories can get into a state where villagers cannot do anything useful

I'd recommend only growing carrots or potatoes.
^ This would be my guess as well. It's best to avoid wheat.
I recommend removing all crops and letting the farmer plant out of his inventory. Every time he plants wheat remove that until he no longer plants wheat. Then you will probably be fine.
Wheat works fine on its own but the hard bit is getting a farmer whose inventory is empty. The only way I was able to do that was to hang around the village until a baby farmer was born and immediately segregate him/her to ensure that none of the other villagers gave the baby anything.
My two farmers did mysteriously disappear after months of farming away merrily but that's another story.
I have to say that I think that villager-operated farms are a waste of time if you have access to a good supply of bones (e.g. from a skeleton spawner or other mob farm). I have built a couple of semi-automatic farms, the most recent of which was extremely simple. I can fill my inventory with wheat or carrots or potatoes in a few minutes as long as I have enough bonemeal and I have a lot of bones. Villager-operated farms are slow and somewhat difficult to make.
You have have other reasons for wanting to do this though.
Wheat isn't just fine. I'm sure you've noticed that after you harvest and replant your wheat field you will have seeds left over. Imagine how many seeds a farmers inventory will acquire over time until his inventory is nearly all seeds. I'm not sure about how the wheat to bread conversion happens, but if the farmer needs to store bread on top of that their inventory is certainly going to become grid locked with seeds.
At the very least it's certainly more prone to issues than the simpler crops. I would be interested to see data on what a wheat farmers inventory looks like as days progress until the inventory is either seed bound or in a narrow repetitive cycle.

Why do I still play in 1.6.4?

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..

According to the Wiki http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Farmer the Wheat/bread conversion happens when it's shared.
Just testing.
Which is why I prefer potatoes. They harvest them, plant them, and eat them. No cooking or additional messy seeds required.
