iPhone7 backup on (2021) iMac

~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ does not show up in Finder on my new (2021) iMac running Monterey 12.1 -- why? And my device only shows up in the lfinder list when attached. And there is some other hidden backup somewhere that I am leery of deleting. Help!

iMac, OS X 10.11

Start Finder -> Go -> Go to folder -> type: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ -> click Go.

Then Finder will be opened -> your Home folder -> Library -> Application Support MobileSync -> Backup


And my device only shows up in the lfinder list when attached.

Looks it is normal.
