20140068212 | DEVICE BACKUPS AND UPDATES IN VIEW OF DATA USAGE STATISTICS - Embodiments manage data transfer requests representing backup operations and update operations from a computing device using a centralized data transfer service. The data transfer service selects the data transfer requests for performance based at least on data usage statistics associated with a data usage plan and available network connections on the computing device. For the backup operations, the data transfer requests are also selected based on priority information associated with each of the backup operations. In some embodiments, the data transfer service selects and initiates the data transfer requests without incurring excess data transfer costs for the user. | 03-06-2014 |

20090236152 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA ORGANIZATION BY IDENTIFICATION - A system and method for data organization by identification. The system includes a bus, a processor coupled to the bus, a memory unit coupled to the bus, a writing element for allowing a user to create written items on a surface, and an optical detector coupled to the bus for detecting information on the surface. The system further includes software implemented on the processor which is responsive to a user selection of an identifier corresponding to a group of writing surfaces. The identifier is used to identify a data file corresponding to the group of writing surfaces. The software stores information based on writing on the group of writing surfaces. | 09-24-2009 |

20140149544 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING RIGHTS MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR NETWORK SERVICES - A first device implements an application platform that is shared with a second device. The application platform can be implemented so that the first device and the second device operate to have a same identity to at least the network service. The first device provides a user interface in order to receive input for accessing or using the network service. Additionally, the first device communicates input received in response to providing the user interface to the network service. The first device can receive a token from the network service in response to communicating the input. Additionally, the first device can communicate a set of data items to the second device. The set of data items includes the token and one or more identifiers that enable the second device to access and use the network service while appearing as the first device to the network service. | 05-29-2014 |
20140149876 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USE OF NETWORK SERVICES IN RECEIVING CONTENT AND DATA - A first device implements an application platform that is shared with a second device. The application platform can be implemented so that the first device and the second device operate to have a same identity to at least the network service. The first device provides a user interface in order to receive input for accessing or using the network service. Additionally, the first device communicates input received in response to providing the user interface to the network service. The first device can receive a token from the network service in response to communicating the input. Additionally, the first device can communicate a set of data items to the second device. The set of data items includes the token and one or more identifiers that enable the second device to access and use the network service while appearing as the first device to the network service. | 05-29-2014 |
20140150079 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTHENTICATING MULTIPLE DEVICES WITH A SAME CREDENTIAL - A first device implements an application platform that is shared with a second device. The application platform can be implemented so that the first device and the second device operate to have a same identity to at least the network service. The first device provides a user interface in order to receive input for accessing or using the network service. Additionally, the first device communicates input received in response to providing the user interface to the network service. The first device can receive a token from the network service in response to communicating the input. Additionally, the first device can communicate a set of data items to the second device.

20150381343 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING MEDIA STREAM BUFFERS OF MEDIA OUTPUT DEVICES IN ORDER TO SYNCHRONIZE MEDIA CONTENT OUTPUT - A controller output device monitors a media stream buffer on each of multiple receiver output devices. The controller output device determines, at a given instance of time, a buffer data size value of the media stream buffer on each of the receiver output devices. Additionally, the controller output device determines a playback state and a buffer state of one or more of the receiver output devices at the given instance of time, based on the buffer data size values of the media stream buffer of each of the one or more receiver output devices. | 12-31-2015 |
20150382050 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING MEDIA OUTPUT DEVICES CONNECTED ON A NETWORK - A media output device operates to receive audio and/or video data for a content item. The audio and/or video data can be communicated from another device over a network. The output device generates an audio or video output for the content item based on the audio or video data. While receiving the audio or video data, the output device determines an instance of time that is synchronized to an external clock reference. The output device also determines an output correction to perform based at least in part on the synchronized instance of time. The output device adjusts the output to include the output correction. | 12-31-2015 |
