On the first tab of your iPod preferences there is a manual sync checkbox just check that. Apple always by default has automatic sync turned on. With the manual sync turned on You can select what you want on your iDevice and drag and drop content on to the iDevice. The tabs for Photos and Podcast's will allow you to pick just the files you want on your iDevice.

I find the iPod touch and especially iTunes very confusing. I'd probably use them more if I could figure them out. I have a number of reference books and try google but never seem t be able to make sense out of them. I wish one could just add new music and/or photos without wiping out previous music/photos and starting over. It takes a bit of time to redo it every time.
