People in the city hate it being called the "Big Apple". Don't do that.

It's the same do's and don'ts everywhere. Be polite to the natives and other tourists. You can do all the predictable touristy things you want. Just don't be an ass doing it. One thing I particularly find annoying is that some tourists think that people would like to stay and chat for a while. Though New Yorkers wouldn't mind taking a minute out of their time to point you in the right direction, they only want to take a MINUTE out of their time. They have things to do themselves. There's just a faster pace of life in urban areas, so try to keep up. Also, subway doors close just as fast as they open up so think ahead of time. Maybe that's a lesson better learned from experience though.

I suppose in general, as a tourist, you don't want to mess with the "habitat" too much and you want to leave it just the way you found it as to preserve it in some fashion.
