You probably havent opened up the necessary repositories, heres how

To enable Partner and Independent Repositories in Ubuntu Software Center

Open Ubuntu Software Center and select “Edit” and then select “Software Sources”:

Make sure both Canonical Partner repositories have check marks next to them

Now open up Terminal and copy and paste

sudo apt-get update

    Congratulation!!!, Its not the first time Ive had to that myself. You dont want to keep this question open especially if the answer I gave didnt help. For other who come along after maybe you want to flag this this to the moderators for deletion or closure. Im not sure it will help other in the future anyway
