Backup and LifeDrive Backup are 2 different conduits; the changes  
affected the LifeDrive Backup conduit only (that conduit wouldn't  
load at all). The Media conduit (actually called Photos in the  
Conduits folder) is another conduit altogether.

The Media (Photos) Conduit backs up the photos (the backup conduit  
does not); while the problems were specifically seen in the Media  
conduit and LifeDrive backup conduits (different issues with each  
one), we have fixed it so that other conduits that make the same  
mistakes as these conduits will operate correctly.

We have seen that the Media conduit has very odd behavior (outside of  
Missing Sync) and that you should check the "Backup photos" option.  
Other than backing up the photos, I have no idea what the conduit does.

If you're continuing to have problems with these conduits, please  
contact our support staff.

Does this answer your question?

Thanks.
