I have installed Ubuntu 14.04 some days ago. Now I am trying to update software using Software Updater, but it stops at:

Reading Database

I ran some commands on reading some websites, this is what I get as errors, please help:

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

$ ps -ef | grep apt
