I would like to Upgrade from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04. I read the instructions, but the "Upgrade"-Button didnt occur within my Update Manager Window.
Is there another way to upgrade?
would be delighted for your support!
Enjoy your day! Co.

Maybe this will help: How to install software or upgrade from old unsupported release? – Eric Carvalho May 31 '13 at 11:12

The Update Manager takes command-line options:
user@host:~$ update-manager --help
Usage: update-manager [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version Show version and exit
--data-dir=DATA_DIR Directory that contains the data files
-c, --check-dist-upgrades
Check if a new Ubuntu release is available
-d, --devel-release Check if upgrading to the latest devel release is
possible
-p, --proposed Upgrade using the latest proposed version of the
release upgrader
--no-focus-on-map Do not focus on map when starting
--dist-upgrade Try to run a dist-upgrade
--no-update Do not check for updates when starting
-s, --sandbox Test upgrade with a sandbox aufs overlay
In particular, running update-manager --dist-upgrade brings up the distribution upgrade window.

Hi! I also have the same problem. There isn't an "Upgrade" button. I've just tried to use the options of update-manager but it says that it cannot upgrade. I use 11.10 on Dell notebook (Ubuntu is pre-installed). – starikovs Jul 17 '13 at 08:19
