    Hi donaldshelton.

    You could try updating your system via terminal and it might get the bugs out:

    Close your update manager GUI

    Open terminal (may use ctrl-alt-t combo)

    Enter 'sudo apt-get update'

    Enter 'sudo apt-get upgrade'

    Hopefully these commands run through okay. If not, post your results especially any messages when you ran apt-get update. I sometimes get hiccups when running apt-get update myself, simply running it through again (twice succession) seems to work. Haven't missed an update yet.
