Hey Lexus, I have a couple of options you can try:

-Reinstall/update iTunes.

-Manually update through the settings app.

-Try with a different computer.

-If non of those work, put your device in recovery mode and restore your iPod(note doing this can erase all of the data. This includes app data, photos, and videos. Backing up your device before restoration can restore photos and videos back after restoring but not the app data.)

Hey Lexus, you can update on your iPod 4 by tapping Settings > General > Software Update. Let me know how this goes for you.

What version of IOS is your ipod 4 running?? You can check under settings > General > About. It it is on IOS 6.1.6 then you will be unable to update it as it is the highest version that will run on that ipod
