Please I need fix it this parts

How I do it this?

js/app.js 
//Problem: Hints are shown even when form is valid
//Solution: Hide and show them at appropriate times

//Hide hints
$("form span").hide();

function passwordEvent(){
    //Find out if password is valid  
    if($("form span").val().length > 8) {
      //Hide hint if valid
      $("#password").next().hide();
    } else {
      //else show hint
      $("#password").next().show();
    }
}

//When event happens on password input
$("#password").focus(passwordEvent).keyup(passwordEvent);


//When event happens on confirmation input
  //Find out if password and confirmation match
    //Hide hint if match
    //else show hint

You did fix it, but then you made some unnecessary changes.

The real fix needs to be done on just one line, and you did it. But on that line and others you made some extra changes, in particular replacing the references to "this". None of that should be changed.
