Patent number: 9716774Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for method for syncing a user interface on a server device to a user interface on a client device are disclosed. The method includes broadcasting a signal from a server device to a client device when the server device presents an active user input interface on a display screen, wherein the active user input interface illustrates input from a user via a remote control that is separate from the client device, wherein the remote control requires multiple steps for inputting a character. The method next includes establishing a connection between the server device and the client device if certain pre-defined criteria are met. Next the method includes transmitting parameters for displaying a client user input interface on the connected client device that is associated with the active user input interface, including loading existing data in an input field of the active user input interface into a client input field on the client device.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2008Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Rainer Brodersen, Amandeep Jawa, Alan Cannistraro, Daniel Davis, Jeffrey L.

Patent number: 9113223Abstract: Aspects include systems, computer readable media and methods for remotely updating properties of Audio/Visual (A/V) performance nodes that can receive A/V content through a wireless network from a central content source. The central content source can maintain information about properties of such nodes, providing such information to a device configured with remote control software, upon request. The remote control device can accept user inputs relating to properties updates, indications of such being provided to the central content source for distribution to nodes whose properties were updated. Examples of updatable properties include on/off toggling, and volume controls. Updating such properties can be protected by passwords. The central content source can be configured as software executing on a personal computer operable to communicate over the Internet for obtaining access to streaming and/or downloadable A/V content.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Alan Cannistraro, Jeffrey L.

Publication number: 20140074663Abstract: The technology relates to synchronizing purchase information and metadata across devices. The system maintains a server listing of items purchased from an online store and associated with a user account, each item in the server listing of items being associated with a respective first hash value. Then, the system receives, from a client device, a client listing of items purchased from the online store representing a last known listing of items purchased from the online store and associated with the user account, each item in the client listing of items being associated with a respective second hash value. Next, the system determines a difference between the respective first hash value and the respective second hash value. Based on the difference, the system sends, to the client device, metadata identifying items present in the server listing of items that are not in the client listing of items.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2012Publication date: March 13, 2014Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Thomas Alsina, Olagappan Manickam, Lucas Newman, Ellis Marshall Verosub, David Anthony William Pickford, Nurinder Manj, Amandeep Jawa, Garrick McFarlane, Kevin R.

Publication number: 20140074783Abstract: The technology relates to synchronizing user metadata across devices. The system maintains a collection of incremental metadata changes for a collection of media items, for each media item represented in the collection, storing a media item identifier and a value, wherein the value is an incremental user metadata change for a respective media item. Next, the system receives, from a client device, a request for a metadata sync, the request comprising a last metadata version update number indicative of a last metadata sync received by the client device. The system then sends, to the client device, a metadata update associated with a version update number subsequent to the last metadata version update number indicative of the last metadata sync received by the client device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2012Publication date: March 13, 2014Applicant: APPLE INC.Inventors: Thomas Alsina, Olagappan Manickam, Lucas Newman, Ellis Marshall Verosub, David Anthony William Pickford, Nurinder Manj, Amandeep Jawa, Garrick McFarlane, Kevin R.

Patent number: RE45793Abstract: Method and apparatus for accessing media across networks. The present invention generally allows for media to be provided across a network. A client requests media information from a server so the client can create a local representation of the server's database. The client is then able to manage the media information locally. When the client selects the desired media, it requests the selection from across the network. The server then delivers the selected media.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2012Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Amandeep Jawa, Jeffrey L. Robbin, David Heller
