20110080486 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD - According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a communication module, an input module, a capturing module, a storing module, a path register module, and a transmission module. The communication module is configured to make a close-proximity wireless transfer. The capturing module is configured to capture an image displayed on a screen of a display according to an input from the input module. The storing module is configured to store an image file corresponding to the captured image in a storage. The path register module is configured to register, in a transmission tray, path data indicating a path of the image file stored in the storage. The transmission module is configured to transmit the image file indicated by the path data registered in the transmission tray to an external device by the close-proximity wireless transfer when a connection is established between the communication module and the external device. | 04-07-2011 |
20130083085 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND ITS CONTROL METHOD - One embodiment provides an electronic apparatus, including: a connection module configured to be detachably connected with an external device; a display module configured to display an image; and a display controller configured to control display of the display unit so that a larger image is displayed when the connection module is connected to the external device than when the connection module is not connected to the external device. | 04-04-2013 |
20140026198 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - According to one embodiment, a control module detects each of a plurality of events. A management module transmits a determination result indicative of one of permission and prohibition of execution of a specific process to the control module when a second event of requesting execution of the specific process is detected before detection of a first event of requesting a connection to a specific external communication device. When the second event is detected after the detection of the first event, the management module transmits the other of permission and prohibition of the execution of the specific process to the control module. | 01-23-2014 |
20140026228 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a management module and a control module. The control module detects an event of requesting install of an application program, and transmits, prior to execution of the install, install event information including an application name of the application program to the management module. The management module notifies the install event information to a determination program, and transmits to the control module a determination result indicative of permission or prohibition of the install, the determination result being received from the determination program. | 01-23-2014 |
20140351879 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM - According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a multiuser function. The apparatus includes a manager and controller. The manager is configured to provide an environment for restricting a process executable by the apparatus. The controller is configured to detect a request to execute the process, and to transmit contents related to the request to the manager prior to the execution of the process. The manager is configured to transmit a determination result to the controller based on a policy applied to each user and indicative of permission or prohibition of the execution of the process. | 11-27-2014 |

20150154510 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE - According to one embodiment, an electronic device capable of logging in by switching accounts, includes a processor. The processor determines whether the device can communicate with a predetermined external electronic apparatus, and controls switching the accounts based on a result of the determination. | 06-04-2015 |
20150347778 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a processor configured to operate based on a clock, the processor includes a register in which a value added in accordance with the clock is stored, and a memory configured to store first period information indicating a first period in which a file is accessible. The processor is configured to acquire first time and date information indicating a first time and date from an external device, calculate a second time and date indicating a present time and date based on the first time and date information and the value, and restrict access to a resource of the electronic apparatus, when the second time and date does not correspond to the first period. | 12-03-2015 |
20160062595 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes storage including an operating system (OS) and circuitry. The circuitry executes the OS capable of creating a first user account and a second user account. The OS comprises a first function for prohibiting, according to a first setting, first functions of the OS out of functions available to the first user account while user has logged in to the second user account. The OS further comprises a second function for prohibiting, according to a second setting, second functions of the OS. One of the second functions coincides with one of the first functions. The first function is prohibited from being active while the second function is active or the second function is prohibited from being active while the first function is active. | 03-03-2016 |
