Low transmission fluid will cause the torque converter to lock up and it can't idle.

If it's wanting to stall when you're coming to a stop (and cleaning the IAC doesn't seem to help) maybe it's the Vehicle Speed Sensor.

Check the battery. If the voltage is low the first thing the computer eliminates is the idle circuit. I had the same issue and a new battery solved it.
Good luck
