If you have a 1st generation iPod touch, it can't update beyond iOS 3.1.3. The 2nd generation can't update beyond iOS 4.2.1. Any later iPod can run iOS 5 or possibly a later version.

A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later. With OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
A 3G to 5.1.1 Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
A 4G to 6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
