You have to do this BEFORE the connection to the Mac.

Open iTunes, go to Preferences -> Devices and check "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically".

When you will connect the iPhone, in the "Summary" section, check the "Manually manage music and videos" option.

I think that Brandscill is right, your amount of RAM is very low, maybe also for Snow Leopard, at least to work heavily on it. You can find not very high prices for a kit for some brands like Komputerbay and others
