Can anyone help me out on this?

Ive done the normal stuff in attachment manager

Set the bytes size to what i want
allowed for usergroups

etc etc

but the upload limit remains the same

I want to have an upload limit of 10MB for a zip file but its staying at 5.25MB

Any ideas?

admincp --> maintenance --> view php info

What do these two variables state?
post_max_size ?
upload_max_filesize ?

You will most likely have to change those variables to a higher number ie
post_max_size 15M
upload_max_filesize 15M

Then HUP/Restart apache.

If you dont have root access to restart apache, you can try using a local php.ini file with this in it, thats if your host allows local php.ini override by clients, upload php.ini to your public_html/root folder.

post_max_size=15M
upload_max_filesize=15M

As well you host may allow php_flag in a htaccess file.
edit .htaccess and add the following to it.
php_flag post_max_size 15M
php_flag upload_max_filesize 15M

this is what my php info says:

post_max_size 8M
upload_max_filesize 2M

My php.ini file has max file upload of 60MB

ideas?

You have to change both, not just one, also i stated your host may not allow local php.ini file over ride.

i said that is what my php INFO said!

NOT my php.ini

this is what my php.ini contains:

[PHP]
allow_url_fopen = On
allow_url_include = On

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; forum.golzarion.com* by Mohsen ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

post_max_size=15M
upload_max_filesize=15M
