Yes, I know not to delete those types of files. When I attempt to update my iPhone to the new version, the following message comes up:

iTunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough space is available on this computer. Removing files and emptying the trash to free up additional space. I have already emptied the trash. How do I remove the files they're referencing?
