I can tell you the command line way to change things.

1/ sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list  (this maybe different in edgy so
type up-to the so of sources and hit tab).
2/ change edgy to feisty.
3/ press ctrl+x then y.
4/ sudo apt-get update.
5/ sudo apt-get upgrade.
6/ make a cup of coffee sit back and watch the text scroll.

Also did you follow the instructions in the screenshot?
