How can I update my ipod touch 3 (A1318) from ios 4.1 to ios 4.2?
I would like to do that to enjoy my the airport express' airplay feature, but now (december 2012) iTunes forces to update to iOs 5.1, and I wouldn't do it (fear about possible iPod slowing down)
You can only update to the latest version. A handful of people complain about "slowing down" with EVERY release.

This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service. -
please how can I restore my ipod touch 2g from a firmware that I own already on my computer and without any time need to download via itunes
You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabilng the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Next, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials.
If possible, either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync. To do this, right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.

Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software availbable to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

What does error -3259 mean? How can i update my ipod touch to the new ios 5?
I been updating my ipod touch 4 software to the new ios 5 all day. i tried disabling my security programs and firewall, different download programs and reinstalling iTunes, and restarting my ipod touch. But for each attempt i get a different error. i went to the Specific update and restore errror code page and got a reason for each error except for error -3259. Basically my question is: 1. How can i update my ipod software to io5 and 2. What is the reason behind error -3259?
Connect it to iTunes on a computer and update it from there. Note that the second generation iPod touch(which includes 8GB models sold at the same time as the third generation ones) can't be updated past 4.2.1.

How can i update my ipod 1st generation from IOS 4.2.1 to 5.0
how can i update my ipod from IOS 4.2.1 to 5.0
Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; there isn't a Software Update option in General on iOS versions prior to 5.0. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the first generation iPod touch and original iPhone is 3.1.3.
The maximum iOS version for the second generation iPod touch and the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
The maximum iOS version for the third generation iPod touch and original iPad is 5.1.1.
The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.6.
If you don't know what device you have, append the last three characters of its serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.

How can I update my ipod touch from 5.0.1 software to 5.1 ?!
If u know just tell me abut it because i can not open safari,apps,etc...
i want the new software because i want siri.Siri is not part of iOS 5.1 for the iPod touch, so if that's your only reason for upgrading, you'd be wasting your time. Siri is only available on the iPhone 4S.
If you want to upgrade, though, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
or if you have WiFi from your iPod go to the Software Update section of the General settings .
