Hi,

As far as I can tell, the only option you have when manipulating backups, is 
either restoring from one or deleting the entire device’s backup.  I’m not 
totally familiar with Apple’s backup process, but I’d venture to say that they 
are likely incremental style of backups.  thus, it would be difficult to remove 
older backups manually without affecting things negatively.  Your initial 
backup uses up a fair amount of space, but subsequent backups are usually quick 
and easy and use very little additional space unless you make big changes.

Later…
