Thanks now when I try and go to the about and click on help and about or

I tried installing the doc's from the software center and it says I have
to uninstall puredata.

try to find out why it wants to uninstall puredata.

most likely this is a version mismatch between the "puredata" package and the "puredata-doc" package. alternatively, "puredata-doc" got not updated[*] properly, but since "puredata" depends on "puredata-doc" you cannot really uninstall it without removing "puredata".
personally, i would open a terminal, and run something like
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall puredata-doc

or (in case the above does not help), even do something like:
$ sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/puredata-doc_0.43.2-4_all.deb
(adjust the version number to the one you have installed)

[*] i suspect this to be a package updating problem.
