Go to that other application, and click upgrade, but cannot see the upgrade button

I created my first Android app called 3 Lil Letters. I was having a problem making a signed APK. I found a web link that showed the steps. That was great. But when I was at the last step, I had an error about a duplicate key. It did create the apk, so I uploaded it to Google Play. I then decided that I should try to recreate the apk so that it does not have this error. I was able to do that so now I have an APK that I want to overwrite the existing APK. When I try to upload it says that the apk already exists and that I need to press the UPGRADE button. All I can see is the UPLOAD button.

I tried IE and FireFox browers and have the same problem. I cannot find the UPGRADE button. Thanks for your help.

After uploading an .apk to Google Play, you have to increment the version number in your build to upload another one. You cannot have two different .apk files with the same version number. You also cannot remove an .apk after having uploaded it, even if it is known to be broken in some way.
