Abstract: A client service, such as a plug-in to a browser, can alter a document retrieved from a compatible service to augment the document with services from an online content management service. When an application retrieves a compatible document, the client service can detect a document element within the document and alter the document to provide an activatable reference to the online content management service. For example, a client service can recognize an email composition webpage or an email display webpage and insert activatable references provide services from the online content management service. In email composition webpages, a reference can be a button that allows an email author to insert a link to a content item from the online content management service. In email display webpages, references can be added that allow attachments to be sent to the online content management service for storage.

Abstract: A content management system can tag a client installer with an information tag linking the client installer to a user account. The client installer can be configured to install the client-side application on the client device and pass the identification tag to the installed client-side application. The client-side application can transmit the identification tag to the content management system, which can use the identification tag to identify the linked user account and log the client-side application into the user account. The content management system can implement several verification measures such as limiting the number of times and when an identification tag can be used, as well as IP addresses that can use the identification tag. The content management system can also use data cached by the web-browser application to determine if the web-browser application was used to access the user account in the past.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for generating personalized account reconfiguration interfaces to users of a content management system. A user interface including an option to reconfigure a user's account with a content management system may be provided that incorporates the user's own content. Generating the personalized account reconfiguration interface may include generating an account reconfiguration offer template that includes one or more object placeholders and identifying user content items to replace the object placeholders. The personalized account reconfiguration interface may then be provided to the user for display on a display of the user's electronic device.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates access to content. During operation, the system provides access to a set of content items associated with at least one user account in a synchronized content management system through a file chooser on an electronic device. Next, the system provides one or more filters for viewing the content items through the file chooser, wherein the one or more filters are based at least in part on synchronization data associated with the set of content items.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for generating intelligent account reconfiguration offers to users of a content management system. The content management system may monitor how a user utilizes available features and/or storage space to determine whether the user would be amenable to an offer to reconfigure their user account. Such account reconfiguration offers may include an offer to alter the amount of storage space and/or features available to the user account.

Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a system for facilitating installation of a software application is provided. The system includes a communications component configured to communicate with external devices, and a processor configured to detect an intent to install the software application to a computing device, cause the communications component to provide an installer of the software application for retrieval by the computing device, and direct the communications components to communicate with a mobile device such that the mobile device serves as a guide in installation of the software application to the computing device.

Abstract: Methods and systems that utilize fingerprints or metadata to identify digital audio files are disclosed. In particular, in certain embodiments a fingerprint of a digital audio file may be utilized to find a set of fingerprints that are related to the fingerprint of the digital audio file it is desired to identify. Using the metadata associated with each of the set of related fingerprints a song, artist or album can be identified and assigned to the digital audio file it was desired to identify. Additionally, the identified song, artist or album name may be associated with the digital audio files corresponding to each of the identified related acoustic fingerprints. In this manner, not only can digital audio files be identified but additionally, data associated with previously identified digital audio files may be iteratively refined by associating updated metadata with previously labeled digital audio files.

Abstract: A user interface and associated methods for machine aided authoring and translation is provided. The user interface can display strings and associated metadata to assist with authoring and translations. The metadata can be used to mark the strings. The metadata can include one or more constraints which correspond to evaluation criteria and one or more anchor points operable to project the constraints against a string.

Abstract: Generally described, aspects of the present invention are directed toward providing available source data and localized information to a user. More specifically, a source string is obtained and used to retrieve a corresponding set of available source data. The source data can include available resources or available content. Further, the resources can correspond to strings. An element from the set of available source data can be selected and used to obtain data associated with the selected element. The associated data can include localized information corresponding to the selection of source data. Thus, available source data and corresponding localized information can be obtained and used in an application or document.

Abstract: A method for generating metadata for processing by various processing components is provided. Source data is obtained and compiled into metadata. The metadata can include one or more constraints which correspond to evaluation criteria and one or more anchor points. Operations may be performed on a string utilizing the metadata.
