LESSER [ˈlesər]
According to usage rules, fewer is only to be used when discussing countable things, while less is used for singular mass nouns. For example, you can have fewer ingredients, dollars, people, or puppies, but less salt, money, honesty, or love. If you can count it, go for fewer.
In normal usage, the word less means a smaller amount or quantity. The word lesser means of reduced value, something which is not as good. @asfallows: Your first sentence is right. Unfortunately your example is not. 'Not as many apples' refers to a smaller number, not amount or quantity, and is therefore expressed as fewer apples.
the lesser evil (or the lesser of two evils) the less harmful or unpleasant of two bad choices or possibilities.
to a lesser extent - used to form the comparative of some adjectives and adverbs; "less interesting"; "less expensive"; "less quickly".
