I've just realized that when I sync my iPhone, it usually makes a backup... and doing so usually takes quite a while (30 minutes). After reading around, I've discovered that these backup files are stored in ~Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync. After digging into this folder, it only shows about 70 megs of files (many weird file types).
Anybody else have experience with these iPhone backups?
Is this the only folder where backup information is stored?
What exactly is it backing up wherein the backup folder only shows 70 megs (I assume it's not backing up music/videos/photos)?
Why does it take so long (30 minutes) to do a backup if this is the case?
Is iTunes not "smart enough" to only add to the backup folder what's changed since the last backup (do an incremental backup)?
Sorry for so many questions... I just wanted to know if it's really worth having iTunes make these iPhone backups, considering it's taking a good 30+ minutes.
