There is a huge difference between update (apply minor software version changes) and upgrade (move to the next major operating system release). System Preferences may notify you about updates if you set this up correctly. But you will generally not be notified about upgrades.


You have not told us the specifics about your computer (e.g., age), nor have you told us what you're trying to "update" (including from and to what versions). So I will guess.
