Here are 3 shots of the messages that pop up. they all now appear to be in a waiting mode. I ran the program from terminal using "update-manager" as the command. Something has changed from the first few times I was having issues because when I initially started having problems, the message "applying changes" would appear and the bar would go about halfway across the screen and the program would appear to be frozen, as I couldn't close the boxes using the Cancel button. Now the Cancel button is working, but The 3 times I tried starting the updates, today, it came up with two different different messages and in this "waiting" mode.
Sorry I can't be more help, I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and Linux. (Incidentally I think that Ubuntu is a great!) thanks for any help you can give me.
