 * When I click on updates on the dashboard for the plugins that need updating WP
   just tells me that they are up to date but a while later it keep showing the 
   same update notification again. It just keeps going round and round showing the
   notification and telling me that all plugins are up to date. What could be the
   problem and what can I do to get it to do the plugin updates?
 * Thank you.

 * We are having the same problem, the plugins show that there is an update available,
   we click to update, the process happens and it says that they have updated successfully,
   but when we go back to the plugins page they still say there is an update available.
 * When we look at the plugin folders via FTP they show the date we updated the 
   plugin and the files have actually been updated. Something isn’t connecting with
   WordPress somewhere. Any idea what can be done?
 * We’ve done a manual WordPress upgrade and that didn’t fix anything.
