Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? No
Joomla! version: (unknown) 2.5.11
PHP version: (unknown) 5.3
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: (optional, but it helps us help you) HostMonster
Admin Tools version: (unknown) 2.5.6

Description of my issue: Just want to know that if I use the admin tools feature to update Joomla core 2.5.11 to 2.5.13 that there will not be anything else I need to do. It will all be handled automatically? I need to know it should be problem free before I attempt it. Thanks

Yes you can, albeit you need to upgrade from 2.5.11 to 2.5.14. There was a new version released last week which fixes security issues in 2.5.13.

Thank you for the advice. I updated the core using Admin Tools and it seems to have updated ok. but got the attached error messages. Anything I should worry about? Thanks!

This is normal, in the sense that it's a known issue that has happened to other people upgrading from 2.5.11 even when using the core Joomla! Updater component. It's also trivial to fix. After the upgrade just go to Extensions, Mange Extensions and click on the Database tab. In the new page click on Fix in the toolbar. That's all.
