it runs without alias t1. before fieldname id after SET, so:
UPDATE table1 t1
SET id =
(SELECT t3.id FROM table2 t2,table3 t3, table1 t1
WHERE t3.field = t2.field
AND t2.id = t1.id
AND t1.id <> t3.id)
WHERE
(SELECT t3.id FROM table2 t2,table3 t3, table1 t1
WHERE t3.field = t2.field
AND t2.id = t1.id
AND t1.id <> t3.id) IS NOT NULL;
Of course, simply...
Thanks for the help!

To be concrete, a valid version would be:
UPDATE table1 t1
SET id = (something)
WHERE (anotherthing);
> Except this point, the query is valid although I am not sure the result
> is always what you may expect [...]
To "join" table1 column (assumed: id) to the subquery (sub-select here)
expression, table1 recall is not relevant in the subquery. Moreover an
alias "t1" is already defined to table1 (at the beginning of the statement).
A more suitable version would be:
UPDATE table1 t1
SET id = (SELECT t3.id FROM table2 t2, table3 t3
WHERE t3.field = t2.field AND t2.id = t1.id AND t1.id <> t3.id)
WHERE (SELECT t3.id FROM table2 t2, table3 t3
WHERE t3.field = t2.field AND t2.id = t1.id AND t1.id <> t3.id) IS NOT
NULL;
A PostgreSQL-compliant version could also be:
UPDATE table1 t1
SET id = t3.id
FROM table2 t2, table3 t3
WHERE t3.field = t2.field AND t2.id = t1.id AND t1.id <> t3.id AND
t3.id IS NOT NULL;
A PostgreSQL-compliant and faster version may be:
UPDATE table1 t1
SET id = t3.id
FROM table2 t2
INNER JOIN
(SELECT t.id, t.field FROM table3 t WHERE t.id IS NOT NULL) t3
ON t3.field = t2.field
WHERE t2.id = t1.id AND t3.id <> t1.id;
Hoping a satisfying solution is up.
