Would really appreciate the help!

As mentioned on comments section, you have the crashed on the list between on the line

57 deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ precise main

and

59 deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/precise main

Edit your sources.list with a Graphical Editor like gedit or nano with a path using

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

and find the line of 59 and add #. that should be

#deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ precise main

Saved and update your apt.

Hope this helps.

57  deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ precise main

59  deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/precise main

See the space before precise. Or you are missing the word "precise" before main.

Same goes for the commented line 60: missing space of missing the word "precise" before main.

It goes "deb" "url" "ubuntuversion" "main"
