I have the proxy address, a user name and a password for the proxy server I need to connect through, but when I set the proxy details under System Setting => Network => Network Proxy, only Firefox seems to be able to connected to the Internet.

The Ubuntu Software Centre and apt-get does not seem to be able to connect to the internet, I have already tried this and a bunch of other things but nothing seems to work.

Go to your system settings --> network, select network proxy and then manual. Here you can enter your proxy settings, and save them.

After that open up a terminal, open your bashrc file in ~/.bashrc and add the following line;

export {http,https,ftp}_proxy=http://**YOURUSERNAME**:**YOURPASSWORD**@**HOST**:**PORT**/
