E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) 
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

First, check to make sure that there are not more than 1 instance of "apt-get" open. you cannot have Ubuntu Software Center open and/or Synaptic at the same time.

Second, just to be sure run sudo killall apt-get

You can reboot the machine and clear the process too.

Open a terminal

sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
