How to download ios 5 to itouch

how do you download the IOS 5 to your itouch?

Connect your iPod touch to your computer, then click on your iPod in the sidebar of iTunes.
You'll see two buttons below the picture of your iPod: "Update" (or "Check for Update") and "Restore." iTunes might even tell you without you having to ask that a new version of iOS is available. Click "Update" or do whatever in the dialog box, and you should be good to go.
This is, of course, assuming that your iPod is compatible with iOS 5.

    You don't. This thread is over 1 year old. If you need to upgrade, connect your phone to iTunes and check for updates. If you have iOS 5, you can go into settings - general - software update.

    how to download ios 5.0.1 instead of ios 5.1?

    If you are past 5.1, there's a good chance you can't go back.
    If you're on 5.0 or before, you will need to place your phone in DFU mode, get a manual copy of iOS 5.0.1 for your phone (correct model), and install it by holding down Shift (Windows) or Option (Mac) when restoring your phone in iTunes. It will prompt you for the specified .ipsw file.

    how to download ios 6 on my iphone4

    You posted in the OS X 10.3 forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you are updating using wifi, locate your iPad close to your router so you don't get a wifi dropout (can cause update corruption).
     Cheers, Tom

    How to download iOS 7.1.1

    Make a backup to iTunes on Windows or OS X, if you don't already have that, or back up the critical data to iCloud if you have enough storage space available there.
    If your iOS device supports iOS 7 (and not all do), then....
    Settings > General > Software Update
    or connect to iTunes, and check for updates, and perform the update there.
    The PIN or passcode that the update will ask for is your login PIN or passcode for your own device; whatever you've set for that.

    If you're running iOS 5.1.1, then I suspect you have an iPad 1 which can't be updated to iOS 7. The version you have is the latest you can put on an iPad 1

    To update
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    Note the 2G can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1
