I have set up for my add-ons to automatically update but find they are not always doing that. i.e., Java and Adobe. I know that I can manually do it but do not want to have to and that is why I have it set up to auto update.

Only extensions can be updated via Firefox.
Plugins like Flash and Java are installed via other programs and software on your computer and you need to updates plugins yourself manually if they do not check that automatically when they are used.
