Default my "if" statements do not update

I have a spreadsheet full of IF statements linked to another sheet in an
excel document. Unfortunately all the IF formulas will not update when the
condition is met. When i attempt to check a formula, open the cell's formula
but don't change anything, then the formula updates. My question is if there
is a way to make all of these formulas update without clicking on each
formula. I am sure it is something simple.

right now)

Check ToolsOptionsCalculation and see that the calculation mode is set to
Automatic.
