Publication number: 20120317498Abstract: An electronic communication device includes an input interface for receiving input, a display for displaying output, and a processor. The processor is in communication with the input interface and the display. When the processor determines that a new notification event for an application has occurred, the processor causes an icon for activating the application to be displayed on the display. When the processor determines that the new notification event has not occurred, the processor does not display the icon.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2011Publication date: December 13, 2012Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Adrian Michael LOGAN, Neeraj GARG

Publication number: 20120066736Abstract: A method of managing communications services begins with a communications platform receiving a request for a communications service to be provided to a communications device by a source other than the communications platform. The communications platform determines an authorization of the communications device to receive the communications service. The authorization comprises a permission of the communications device to receive the communications service during a lifetime of a communications session maintained with the communications device. The communications network authorizes delivery of the communications service to the communications device during the lifetime of the communications session, in accordance with the authorization.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2010Publication date: March 15, 2012Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Christopher Labrador, Brian Alexander Oliver, Douglas Michael Gisby, Susan Elizabeth Simon Daniels, Brian Edward Anthony McColgan, Adrian Michael Logan, Eric Allan Fritzley, Nicholas Patrick Alfano, Richard John George

Publication number: 20120040646Abstract: A system and method for delaying delivery of teleconference access information includes at least one processor, at least one computer readable medium in communication with the processor, and at least one program module stored on the medium. The module is operative to create a teleconference notification in response to a request from a requestor device. The module can also assign a date, time, and access information for the teleconference, receive an input from the requestor device to delay delivery of the access information, and deliver the teleconference notification to at least one participant device. The teleconference notification has at least the date and time of the teleconference but not the access information. The module delays delivery of the access information to the at least one participant. For example, delivery of the access information is delayed until a predetermined time period from the assigned date and time of the teleconference.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 13, 2010Publication date: February 16, 2012Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Neeraj Garg, Adrian Michael Logan

Publication number: 20120022909Abstract: Automatic meeting scheduling may be facilitated without the need to open a calendar application to discuss and discover shared available time. A meeting organizer may send a request to one or more potential meeting participants. Based on responses received from the device of the potential meeting participants, the device of the meeting organizer may determine coincidentally available meeting times. The device may automatically select a candidate meeting time from among the coincidentally available meeting times or may rely on the meeting organizer to select a candidate meeting time from among the coincidentally available meeting times. Typical meeting scheduling may then ensue.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2010Publication date: January 26, 2012Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Mina Ayatollahi, Neeraj Garg, Adrian Michael Logan

Publication number: 20110231371Abstract: A method, server and mobile electronic device for archiving data are provided. The server determines that an amount of the data managed by the server meets a threshold condition and in response transmits a message to the mobile electronic device associated with the data, the message indicative that the threshold condition has been met. The mobile electronic device responds to the message with a response indicative that the data is to be archived. The response triggers the server to cause at least a portion of the data to be archived, thereby increasing memory available for storing further data.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2010Publication date: September 22, 2011Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Adrian Michael LOGAN, Neeraj GARG

Publication number: 20110213845Abstract: A system and method are provided for automatically deleting messages such as e-mail upon consumption by the recipient. Consumption by the recipient may include viewing the message, forwarding or replying to the message, or archiving, saving, copying, or moving the message. An indicator is inserted in the message, for example in the message header or body, indicating that the message is to be deleted upon detection of a triggering consumption action. Upon receipt at the recipient's mail client, the client determines whether the indicator is present, and, upon detection of a triggering consumption action, automatically closes any views of the message displayed by the recipient's mail client and deletes the message. Optionally a warning is provided to the recipient prior to deletion.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2010Publication date: September 1, 2011Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Adrian Michael LOGAN, Neeraj GARG

Publication number: 20110202999Abstract: To address situations wherein details and information stored in an electronic device, for example event entries, are sensitive in nature, a system and method are provided wherein such details and information are protected from inadvertent or malicious access and exposure. A flag or option is provided when creating an event entry that flags or marks the entry as sensitive. The details associated with the entry can be suppressed until a specified time before the event occurs and can be deleted or hidden after the event occurs. Access to the details at other times can be permitted through re-authentication of the user, for example using a password. In addition, data storage recovery can be effected by removing old entries irrespective of the sensitivity of the event or its details.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2010Publication date: August 18, 2011Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Adrian Michael Logan, Neeraj Garg

Publication number: 20110154342Abstract: A method and computing device for providing task reminder data associated with event data stored in a database is provided. The computing device comprises a processing unit interconnected with a memory device. A list of tasks associated with the event data is received, each respective task in the list of tasks associated with task data. Respective reminder times for each task are determined at the processing unit, such that a display device can be controlled to provide respective representations of the task data, in association with the event data, at respective times substantially similar to each respective reminder time. The list of tasks is stored in the database in association with the event data. Input data is received, indicative that at least one of a start time and an end time of an event associated with the event data has changed to a respective new start time and new end time.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2009Publication date: June 23, 2011Applicant: RESEARCH IN MOTION LIMITEDInventors: Adrian Michael LOGAN, Neeraj GARG
