If you need to look at your PPAs, you should be able to start 'Software & Updates' by clicking 'Menu' then 'Settings', then scrolling down the list until you find it.
However, if it isn't shown when you search for it as instructed in the help manual there may be something wrong. I get it top of the search list after just by typing 'so'.
Please provide a bit more detail about what you are doing and what you see.

I don't think your problem is a PPA release problem which is what this thread is about.
It is concerning if you can't find things like 'Software & Updates'.
To get help with your update problem, please start a new thread in the updates section. It is better to do this than posting your symptoms in an unrelated thread.

Hi! :)
Use the terminal and enter the following line:
Code:
/usr/bin/software-properties-gtk
Press "Enter" and see what happens.
If the expected window (Software & Updates) appears, than it's some erroneous setting for the interface, in the Menu section. Possibly, the Menu Item has been deleted (or moved somewhere else in the tree) somehow.
If any error message appears, than you have to copy the message and post it here to allow us get a better idea on what might be the cause.
Best regards! :)

You maybe in the right spot - the list with the error doesn't show you have a failing PPA - let alone any at all.
You have a NO PUB Key error...
try the following command in the terminal... Note sudo will prompt for password
Code:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 02456C79B2FD48BF
But PPA's if in use are listed within the "Software & Updates" app (Click Menu - type ' soft ' should be the 1st listed)..
Then the "Other Software" tab...
