Abstract: A terminal device performs communication with a MFP (Multifunction Peripheral), and each of cloud servers. Terminal device executes transmitting and receiving process for image data with the MFP and the cloud servers via a cooperation application program. The terminal device switches a working application in the terminal device to another application, during the transmitting and receiving process via the cooperation application program. In this instance, the terminal device suspends the transmitting and receiving process. The terminal device executes transmitting and receiving process via the another application for a part of the image data for which the transmitting and receiving process is not executed.
