Sync+backup

Without using __ [|iCloud] __, the iPhone, iPad, and iPod backups can take up a lot of local disk space on a computer. If you’ve moved the iPhone/iPad to __ [|sync with a new computer] __, sold an iOS device, or just want to potentially free up some disk space, you can easily delete these backups directly from iTunes. This only removes the backups that are __ [|stored locally] __ on the computer and it will not impact iCloud backups, which won’t even show up in the list.
 * 1) Launch iTunes and open iTunes Preferences
 * 2) Click the “Devices” tab to find the backup list
 * 3) Select the backup(s) you wish to delete and click “Delete Backup”
