You seem to have errors in the configuration file that specifies from which source the packages should be downloaded.
Please open a terminal and issue the command
find /etc/apt -name '*.list' -exec bash -c 'echo -e "\n$1\n"; cat -n "$1"' _ '{}' \;
Then select all output, copy it and paste into this question document.

It look like you have edited your source files by hand and spelled "precise" wrongly. You correct that in /etc/apt/

Ok. Open a terminal and issue the command
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/
This should ask for your password as confirmation of an administrative task, end then will open and editor with the sources.list configuration file loaded.
In the editor scroll down to the very end and than scroll back up ten lines.
Delete the two lines that contain the word precise
Delete all lines that contain 'partner' that are within the last eight lines of the file (leave those in line 45 and 46 as they are).
The end of the file should now read
## This software is not part of Ubuntu, but is offered by third-party
## developers who want to ship their latest software.
deb http://
deb-src http://

Save the file and close the editor.
Issue the commands
cat -n /etc/apt/
sudo apt-get update
and copy/paste all output into this question document as done before.

If you edit sources.list you will want to comment out the top line or so as these refer to using the install media as a package source. You have a web connection so this is not needed. Once the lines are commented, save the new file, close your editor and run:
sudo apt-get update
Is it smooth?

If you need detailed instructions:
open a terminal and issue
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/
in the editor that opens put a hash sign and a space character ('# ') in front of the first line that it reads
# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 13.10 _Saucy Salamander ...
save the file and close the editor

Try update-manager. You should see a button to upgrade to trusty.
