unable to update ubuntu 10.10

[cschamber]

after initating the update and i enter my pass word, update stops and an error box comes up stating that it is unable to update because there is more than one synaptic manager running, i have restarted and get the same results, and to my knowledge there is nothing else running in the background. does anyone have any ides as to what i should do next.

How are you attempting to do the update?

Try running this code in terminal...

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

thank you, i was able to force it to update with the terminal line command you gave me. no more issues at the moment.

Great, you shouldn't have any more problems with it then.
