[MOVED] How to Update Zorin Software.

I installed Zorin about 3 Days ago, I keep getting a Message that Update Software is available, but when I go to Install the Software, I get the Message that a lot of the Updates are from untrusted Sources. It will not let me proceed past that Point. What do I do to resolve this

I am new to Zorin. How do I remove the Repositories you talked about

Thans for your Help. I will give it a Try. One other Issue I have is that I get the Message that it has failed to upload the Flash Player Plugin. When I click the Button for run this now. Nothing Happens. What can be done to fix this?

swarfendor437 wrote:OK simplest way to get there is: Menu | System Settings | Administration | Update Manager. After it has launched, click on the Settings button bottom left, then go to 'Other Software' Tab and select the PPA then click on 'remove' - but be sure you know what it is you are removing!:

I tried to use your suggestion and unclicked eveything that I did not want it to Download. Now when I attempt to install the Updates, I get the Message that all System Files failed to download and to check my Internt Connection. As you can see from my being Able to access this Forum, my Internet Connection is Fine. I am using Dishnet Sattelite Internet.

I changed the Server Location to the Main Server. I still have the same Problem. Previously I was running regular Ubuntu. It updated without any Problem at all. I am at a Loss to know what to do. I do not really want to return to Ubuntu. I did not like the Version of Firefox on there. With Ubuntu, I could not play some of my Facebook Games. Only half of the Screen would load.

[code}sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade[/code]

As I said, I am new to Zorin. Can you explain how to open a Terminal? Also do I type in everything you typed there, or just the Part that begins with sudo apt-get and ends with dist-upgrade? Thanks for your Help.

This is what I get. What am I doing wrong?
greg@Greg:~$ Code: Select all sudo apt-get update
Code:: command not found
greg@Greg:~$ Code: Select all
Code:: command not found
greg@Greg:~$ Select all sudo apt-get update
Select: command not found
greg@Greg:~$

Do not write the "select all" line.
Write just
sudo apt-get update
and then press <enter>. Then write
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and press <enter>

Hi ventrman

Click on Select All, this will hi-light the code required, right click on hi-lighted code and select copy, then paste into terminal.

Simple

When I opened a Terminal, this is what I did, Here are the Results. greg@Greg:~$ sudo apt-get update
[sudo] password for greg:
After that, I could not type anything into the Terminal.
