you could use the brush tool and set it on "color" rather than "normal" with the color you want to use, but you'd have to stay inside the lines. you might have used the replacement brush too, i have cs5 on a mac and i'd right click on the brush tool's icon and select the second option, and with the right settings that one stays inside the lines, but it's been hit or miss for me when it comes to actually correcting anything...

if that doesn't work and no one else knows you could try icon_tutorial or coloring_help, the memories/tags there have a lot of good info!

Photoshop is so mysterious to me - one day a particular task seems really simple, and the next, I can't even find the button for something. Heh. One day it'd be nice to take an actual class on the program.

Ooh, thanks! I'll have a look around those communities.

I agree that the color replacement tool is probably the best solution. If you hold down ALT while hovering over the color you want it will give you the eye dropper to select that color. I don't know about it not changing the background color but you could read these instructions which should help you pick the settings mostly likely to let you brush over the background w/out changing it's color.

I tried using the color replacement tool on your first example and got this:
