help with a problem updating my ipod touch?

[Katie Grudnowski]

On my mac, when my ipod touch is plugged in, itunes tells me that my ipod has the software version of 4.1. It then tells me that the update (5.1.1) is available. When I press "update" it goes through the "computer must resart to preform update blah blah blah". When my laptop turns back on, it still says my ipod is at a 4.1 level. All i want to be able to do i download the apps such as twitter from the ipod but the app store says ios6 is required.

Try updating your itunes to the newest version then update your ipod! :-)
