Saucy is no longer supported in any way. What you are doing is like looking for updates for Windows 98.

They don't exist.

I suggest you perform a clean install of Trusty and restore your user data from your backups. Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019

What is the output of the terminal commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
find /etc/apt -name '*.list' -exec bash -c 'echo -e "\n$1\n"; cat -n "$1"' _ '{}' \;

Can you help with this problem?
