The Mobile Backup is meant as a 'inbetween'-backup on a mobile Mac when you're on the road. The moment you're connected to your regular TimeMachine (main Mac at home, drives in home-(W)LAN, TimeCapsule etc), content gets dumped there.
But …
a 'backup' on the same drive as the source is mostly … nonsense.
And your iPhone's content is stored in the iTunes Lib; which should be back-upped too ...

Thanks for the tip, how do I turn LOCAL MOBILE BACKUP back on?
This is indeed the problem I am having. I understand I have to switch off the Local Mobile Backup
(in Terminal copy/paste
sudo tmutil disablelocal
Relaunch Mac)
Can you please explain how I do this in some more words. By relaunching, do you mean restart ?
Thanks so much for your help.
I don't know why one thing have to do with the other, but it worked!!!
Thank You!!
Karsten: Your fix seemingly worked like a charm. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I very much appreciate having been able to complete my first iMovie slide presentation with your kind assistance.
