Find version: Look at the readme file, it will have the version in the name and also inside at the top
How to update: Directly through the asset store. Find NGUI and there will be a button to update it (Assuming there is an update available)

In fact in the readme, they are telling you what you should do to update :

Quote
If you have a Standard Edition:
1. In Unity, File -> New Scene
2. Delete the NGUI folder from the Project View.
3. Import NGUI from the updated Unity Package.

I found NGUI on the asset store, but there is no update button.  My version of NGUI is 2.2.7c and it is located in my Assets folder.

Update button shows up on the Asset Store when you navigate to the NGUI package's page.

I navigated to the NGUI package page in the asset store and only got a Buy button.  Screenshot attached.

Wow, I would have never guessed that was an update button.   Thanks for your help!

I spoke too soon... I was unable to find an update for NGUI in the update page.

Are you sure you're logged in to the Asset Store window as the same user that bought NGUI originally?

Now that you mention it, I think I just bought it on tasharen.com via PayPal.  I just thought that the Asset Store would recognize NGUI in my project.  If I can't update through the Asset Store, then is there another way to update?

PayPal version send you a link. This link always points to the latest version. The automated email you received at the time of your purchase tells you of this, and asks you to keep the link safe.

Hi Aren,
I update my NGUI last week.
On my file list I have the ReadMe version 2.2.6c but if I open it I find " NGUI: Next-Gen UI kit  Copyright � 2011-2012 Tasharen Entertainment Version 2.3.1 ..." (the same in the Version History: 2.3.1) .

On the store the current version is numbered as 2.6.1e as mentioned here on the forum (Latest Version: 2.6.1e) but it didn't tells me to update... maybe it's the version I downloaded last week. Am I right?

So many numbers O_O
Tks in advance ;)

If the readme file is called "ReadMe - 2.2.6c.txt" and when you open it inside you see "2.3.1" then you are not following upgrading instructions explained in this same readme file. It's "read me" for a reason. -_-

Ok Aren... (taking a embarrassed breath) I never read the readme -_-' just "updated" from the asset store - I never thought I needed to cancel the old version.
I'm VERY sorry to have taken your time.. but lesson learned!
( So, if we ever meet, I will pay you a beer! -_^ )
