| 20090089342 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANAGING STORAGE OF DATA - A method of managing storage of data at an electronic device includes maintaining databases associated with respective PIM service accounts including at least a first database associated with a first PIM service account and a second database associated with a second PIM service account, receiving a selection of an option to save a data record stored in the first database to the second database, and storing the record in the second database. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20100082239 | METHOD OF SHARING EVENT INFORMATION AND MAP LOCATION INFORMATION - In a method of sharing location information between a map application and a calendar application, the map application pulls calendar event locations from a calendar event store and presents these calendar event locations as suggested locations for the map application. Likewise, the calendar application pulls map locations from a map location data store and presents these map locations as suggested locations for calendar events. By sharing location information between the map application and the calendar applications, these applications become significantly more useful. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100161667 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DATA RECORD MANAGEMENT IN A COMPUTING DEVICE - A method and system for data record management is provided. In an embodiment, a method is provided for updating a data record representing a calendar appointment. The method comprises steps for inputting and saving data representing linked appointments that are associated with data representing base appointments. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20110161832 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING DATA ON A COMPUTING DEVICE - A method and apparatus for a method for processing data on a computing device are provided. The computing device comprises a processing unit interconnected with a memory device and a display device. First message data is stored in the memory device. An indication that first flag data is to be stored in association with the first message data is received. The first flag data is stored in the memory device in association with the first message data. The first message is displayed in association with the first flag data at the display device in a message list view. Second message data is received and automatically associated with the first message data. In response to the automatic associating: the first flag data is removed from the display device; second flag data is stored in association with the second message data in the memory device and the second message data is displayed on the display device in association with the second flag data in the message list view, the second message data flagged on the display device rather than the first message data. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110173269 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING DATA ON A COMPUTING DEVICE - A method and computing device for processing data are provided. Rule data for visually coding incoming data is stored. First and second profile data are stored, independent of the rule data. Each profile data comprises a respective range of time and a respective recurrence pattern that repeats indefinitely. Each profile data is associated with a respective subset of the rule data. Respective indications are received that first profile data and second profile have been activated. In response, the respective subset is automatically applied during the respective range of time such that incoming data is visually coded at the display device according to the respective subset during the respective range of time. Automatic application of the respective subset during the respective range of time repeats indefinitely according to the respective recurrence pattern until another indication that the respective profile data has been deactivated is received. | 07-14-2011 |

| 20110302493 | VISUAL SHUFFLING OF MEDIA ICONS - An apparatus and method for shuffling a media file in a playlist. A first playlist order of a plurality of media files is created for displaying a plurality of icons corresponding to one of the plurality of media files. The plurality icons are arranged according to the first playlist order on the display. Upon receiving a request for a second playlist order a second playlist order is created. While displaying the plurality of icons in the first playlist order, movement of at least two icons on the display is shown between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position corresponds to the first playlist order and the second position corresponds to the second playlist order. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20120009906 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RESUMING MEDIA - A system and method of resuming media playback on a mobile device can include playing media on a mobile device and outputting audio associated with the playing media to an audio output device. The media can be paused in response to receiving an interrupt request. A play request can be received to resume playing of the media on the mobile device. A determination can be made as to whether the audio output device is communicatively coupled to the mobile device. The media can resume play in response to the audio output device being communicatively coupled to the mobile device. In another implementation, media can resume play if a determination is made that the audio output device outputting the audio associated with the media before the interrupt request is the same audio output device that will output audio associated with the media after the interrupt request. | 01-12-2012 |
