I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, using the i3 window manager.
I'm having troubles with the Software and Updates for my system.
When I start the update-manager I get this screen :
The internet is working when I see this, I'm not using a proxy.
After selecting ok (bottom right) I see this :
I select install now (from the bottom right) which just closes the screen. I
then run sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade -y just for measure, and
then restart the computer. This has made no difference.
I can't select any of those radio buttons, or at least if I do select one it doesn't stay selected.
Starting from the left (Ubuntu Software) this is what I have, I can't select any of the radio buttons that are on these pages:
After selecting 'close' on the previous window I SOMETIMES the following message :
After pressing reload on that I get this error message (again, my network is fine while I'm getting this)
Here is the error message text from that :
W:GPG error: http://download.virtualbox.org trusty InRelease: The following
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available:

404 Not Found , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been
ignored, or old ones used instead.
After closing that screen I get the update manager which displays the following:
I'm not sure why these are an option when the others weren't.
I have displayed pictures of the GUI because I'm not sure how this ties in to the apt-get and such, but I'm happy to utilise any CLI methods.

I'm not sure what I'm meant to do about this error - apt-cdrom ?

I've logged in with Unity instead of i3 which has enabled me to install a few things using the update manager, as well as alter the option of Universe packages (because it prompted for a password whereas this didn't happen on i3, so the privileges weren't correct).
However I still get the Check you internet connection error when I load the
Update manager (from within Unity).
Here's an error that I got after trying to reload the package information from
the update manager :
