Here's an interesting video that tells you how to update your current version of WordPress to a more up-to-date version at GoDaddy hosting:
The basic premise of the video seems to be you should use the GoDaddy interface for updating your WordPress version number rather than the WordPress interface. In other words, there are 2 interfaces for updating WordPress but, apparently, only one of them works correctly. This point is made at the end of the video
I cannot vouch for the truth of any of this as I do not have a WordPress site at GoDaddy. However, I'm posting this for future reference, in case I need this information later.
Note that the video is a bit dated. Looks like it is from September, 2011. Since that time, newer GoDaddy sites seem to be cPanel sites. I'm not sure if GoDaddy's policy of gradually switching to cPanel administration, instead of GoDaddy's custom administration, makes a difference. It might.
