My question is basically this:
Can you learn (scribe into spell book/familiar) a spell like Fireball but have it a different descriptor like Acid or Cold? Maybe get it from an Admixture Wizard?
I have a Winter Witch and She can not even know a spell with the fire descriptor and I would really like to be able to use some big AOE spells like Fireball.
This may have already been addressed but when I searched for it I came up empty handed. probably searched for the wrong wording.

Greetings! Welcome to the Pathfinder Society General Discussion Forum.
You probably couldn't find any information on this question because this isn't a rules-focused forum. I'll flag your original post so that the moderators can move it to a more appropriate location and you can get the answer you're looking for.

You would need a pretty specific ability that explicitly allows some arcane caster to scribe the spell as a different spell with a different descriptor. If you can find such an ability, check Additional Resources to see if it's PFS legal.
The Admixture wizard's abilities don't alter how he scribes his spells, only how he casts them, so they won't do what you want. Elemental Spell has the same issue, regardless of which character in the transaction has the feat.
Fireball isn't a witch spell anyways. You could take Lightning Bolt or Black Tentacles for AoE effects.

There is a feat in the APG that lets you change the energy type. If you wanted to have a permanent spell like that, you would have to research and create it yourself. This requires GM approval however. The rules for this are in the Ultimate Campaign book, IIRC.

No.
In a game that allows you invent new spells you could make a spell with a different descriptor. Barring that Fireball is always a fire spell for purposes of learning it.
