Registration of an application can be the notification, by an API which corresponds to a non-native application, to native applications and to a core search framework of a mobile communications device. A core search framework provides a mechanism which enables an application to register as a provider of searchable data. A media application provides a search API media subset which enables non-native applications to register and enables non-native applications to indicate media type categories for which non-native applications may be searched. Registered non-native applications are launched based upon the type of media utilized by a media application. | 01-19-2012 |

| 20090138800 | APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR DIRECTING OPERATION OF A SOFTWARE APPLICATION VIA A TOUCH-SENSITIVE SURFACE - An apparatus is provided that includes a processor configured to receive data representative of points on a touch-sensitive surface with which an object comes into contact to initiate and carry out a trace or movement interaction with the surface. In this regard, the trace is defined by a shape formed by the points, and the movement interaction is defined by movement reflected by the points. The processor is configured to determine if the contact is initiated to carry out a trace or movement interaction based on the data. The contact is initiated to carry out a trace if contact of the object is made and the object is held substantially in place for a period of time, the determination being made. The processor is then configured to interpret the data based on the determination to thereby direct interaction with media presented on the corresponding display based on the interpretation. | 05-28-2009 |
