Hi

Is there any way to stop the backup step when initiating a sync from Mac Finder to iOS devices?

It can be skipped after syncing started but prefer not occur at all

Make changes to preferences—

From the Finder sidebar— hover your mouse over the Location>iPhone to cancel

Thanks,

This was the first step I took and it doesn't stop the backup when sync is performed.

When I press the Sync button on the book tab, it will start the backup, then I had to pre the (x) on the left panel.

But the backup had been created at least partially.

Thanks
