    摘要: In a procedure for handling security settings of a mobile end device the operating conditions of the end device are determined. Then minimum security requirements are established according to the operating conditions by evaluating contextual data regarding the operating conditions of the end device. Next it is determined whether the security settings on the end device comply with at a least with the minimum security requirements. Access to applications is allowed or denied according to the security settings on the mobile end device. Should the end device not meet minimum security requirements the user may be prompted to change the security settings on the end device. The method may involve locating the end device and issuing of a warning in the end device does not meet minimum security settings.

    摘要: A method and apparatus include a terminal device receiving a first message from a server that hosts a service available to the terminal device. The first message includes information about at least one attribute relating to a changeability of that at least one attribute having been changed. The terminal device sends a second message to the server in response to the first message that includes information identifying the information about the at least one attribute of the first message. The terminal device receives a third message from the server that includes information indicating a changeability setting for each of the at least one attribute identified in the first message. The terminal device updates how a user interface for the service is to be displayed so the user interface is displayed with attributes relating to the service being indicated as changeable or unchangeable in accordance with the third message.

    摘要: A display of an icon includes creating and displaying an icon that provides indicia regarding information relevant to an application to which the icon is assigned. The indicia provides information to a user and is always in the foreground of a display when the application is running regardless of whether the application is currently actively in use and being interacted with by a user or not. At least one expandable indicia is included within the icon. Input provided by clicking the expandable indicia actuates an expanded window for displaying more detailed information. Indicia is also presentable on the icon to provide real time information to a user who is actively using another application such as whether a connection to a server hosting services for the application is lost. A presence state of the user is displayable via presence indicia located on the icon as well.

    摘要: A method of monitoring of monitor objects in a computer-integrated telecommunications environment can include, at an initial start-up phase: upon a first-time establishment of an association between a first computing device and a switching device using a communication link, sending a first message from the first computing device to the switching device to request an identification for all monitor objects that are to be monitored by the first computing device; and in response to the first message, sending a second message from the switching device to the first computing device. The second message can refer to a third message to follow. The third message can be sent from the switching device to the first computing device that refers back to the second message and includes a list of all monitor objects allocated to the first computing device.
