Checking in and commiting are the same thing.

Make sure you don't have the 'Show Commitable', etc. file filter on (View ->
File Filter -> Show Commitable).

Update merges any new changes from the repository into your working copy, and
notes any files that have local changes with respect to the repository.

You may want to review the manual: http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs.html
There's also the Karl Fogel book (very good): http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/
