Which version are you using and flavour as the answer will be different in each case? Ubuntu 13.04, Kubuntu 12.04 for example, also let us know if you have changed the desktop.– Warren HillMay 3, 2013 at 6:00

check the settings,it could be set to only accept long term release upgrades
you can upgrade using the do-release-upgrade
command
the technical answer to the subject is /usr/bin/update-manager

Ok, this was weird. i restarted my computer, and ubuntu somehow found 43 new software updates, plus a distribution update. How weird. Thanks for the help guys :) May 3, 2013 at 17:34
