Where do backup files live on my mac?
I can't locate them anywhere and I have and unnecessary 200GB of them that I would really like to free up
Are you asking about a system backup or iTunes backup or a backup from an iPhone, etc? If yes, those (iTunes, iPhone, etc.) are in hidden folders.
Not sure but you might find something useful here Where are backups stored on a Mac
You could also try something like CCleaner for the Mac to do a disk cleanup.

- If I save my iPhone Live Photos to a my pc will they be saved as stills or small video files? I need to save space on my phone but I'm afraid that if I upload them to my computer I will lose the motion., Maybe it's a stupid question but I just want to be sure because some of them are of someone that passed away.
