Abstract:
An apparatus and method for managing an application in a digital device are provided. The method includes receiving Appcessory identification information from an accessory device if the accessory device is connected to the digital device; searching, based on the Appcessory identification information, for at least one application having a function of controlling the accessory device from among at least one application installed in the digital device; and displaying application information associated with the at least one searched application according to a result of the search.
Abstract:
A device and method for sharing a screen in an electronic device including at least one display are provided. The electronic device includes at least one display that displays information, a communication interface that transmits/receives a signal to/from an external electronic device, and a processor that determines a display method of the external electronic device based on the device capability of the external electronic device, generates screen configuration information corresponding to information displayed on the at least one display based on the display method of the external electronic device, and makes a control to transmit the screen configuration information to the external electronic device through the communication interface.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for providing state information of a digital apparatus. State information for a user of the digital apparatus is determined based on the user's intention to perform communication. The state information is transmitted to a server. A display request for a contact list is received. A screen having a plurality of user items is displayed. Each of the plurality of user items corresponds to a respective one of a plurality of users in the contact list. At least one of the plurality of user items includes identification information of a user corresponding to the at least one of the plurality of user items, state information of the corresponding user that is received from the server, and at least one category indicator representing at least one recommended communication service category determined based on the state information of the corresponding user.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for editing memo contents of a user in a user terminal including a user interface are provided. When a part or all of the memo contents on a screen are damaged based on a memo function by using a prearranged pattern, the damaged part or all of the memo contents are deleted and a memo where the part or all of the memo contents have been deleted is displayed on the screen. At this time, the memo displayed on the screen has gone through an edit for filling a blank generated due to the deletion of the damaged part or all of the memo contents by moving successive memo contents to the deleted memo contents.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for controlling an operation mode of a media device, and a recording medium for storing a program source of the method are provided. The method includes acquiring detection information according to a grasp of a user by at least one detector located on at least one side of the media device, determining whether the acquired detection information satisfies a set image capturing mode switching condition for switching to the image capturing mode, and switching to the image capturing mode when a result of the determination indicates that the acquired detection information satisfies the image capturing mode switching condition. Therefore, it is possible to simply and easily switch between operation modes by recognizing the grasp of a user.
