Abstract:
A content providing method of an electronic apparatus communicably connected with an external apparatus is provided. The method includes receiving a command for transferring content to the external apparatus; checking whether the content includes information indicating that the content is transferable to the external apparatus, the information being set by determining, based on a meta data included in the content, whether a predetermined condition is satisfied; and transferring the content, based on the checked information, to the external apparatus.
Abstract:
A method for executing an application based on a connection between devices by automatically connecting devices, and a device, are disclosed. The method includes: detecting an occurrence of first short distance communication between at least one external device and the device; receiving connection information which relates to a second short distance communication mode and application information which relates to the at least one external device from the at least one external device via the first short distance communication; establishing a connection based on the second short distance communication mode between the at least one external device and the device based on the received connection information which relates to the second short distance communication mode; and controlling the at least one external device via the second short distance communication mode by using an application which is executable based on the received application information.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a mobile device, a control method thereof, a message sending apparatus and a message sending method. The mobile device includes a wireless communication unit which performs wireless communication via a wireless network; a signal processing unit which processes a signal transmitted/received by the wireless communication unit; a display unit which displays an image based on the signal processed by the signal processing unit; and a control unit which receives a message from a counterpart device, displays the received message on the display unit, remotely accesses a remote device, and controls the remote device to allow the mobile device to access information stored in the remote device.
Abstract:
A method of generating interaction activity information, performed by a device, is provided. The method includes establishing communication with at least one external apparatus; receiving first information about a user selectable function of the external apparatus; and generating second information, based on the first information, about a user selectable function of the device, wherein the user selectable function of the device corresponds to the user selectable function of the external device and can be performed in collaboration with the external device.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a mobile device and a control method thereof. The mobile device includes a communication interface configured to perform communication via a network; a display configured to display an image; and a processor. The processor is configured to process a signal transmitted or received by the communication interface, control the display to display the image based on the processed signal, control the communication interface to transmit device information of the mobile device to a server, wherein the mobile device is able to receive a message from a remote device through the communication interface, based on the server receiving reference information indicating that the remote device is set to a condition where the remote device is unable to receive the message, receive the message from the server, wherein the message is received through a counterpart device, and process the message to transmit a command to the remote device, such that the server remotely controls the remote device to transmit information requested by a user of the counterpart device corresponding to the command to the counterpart device.
Abstract:
Provided are an electronic apparatus and a method of outputting content. The method includes establishing a wireless communication connection with a second electronic apparatus, receiving apparatus information of the external apparatus from the second electronic apparatus, requesting the second electronic apparatus to establish a wireless communication connection between the first electronic apparatus and the external apparatus, receiving a response to the requesting from the second electronic apparatus, establishing a wireless communication connection between the first electronic apparatus and the external apparatus based on the response; and outputting content by using an executed second application of the first electronic apparatus via the wireless communication connection between the first electronic apparatus and the external apparatus.
