Patent number: 11025622Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for associating an application that was pre-installed on a computer with a user account on an online store. A system configured to practice the method presents an application available for download, receives a request to download the application to a computing devices, determines that the application is a pre-installed application, presents an authorization prompt configured to request user authorization to link the application with a user account, receives the user authorization, generates a unique hardware identifier associated with the computing devices, determines that the application is linkable based upon the unique hardware identifier, and links the adoptable application with the user account when the adoptable application is linkable.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2018Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: Apple, Inc.Inventors: Pedraum R. Pardehpoosh, Craig M. Federighi, Daniel I. Feldman, Gregory T. Quirk, Jack R. Matthew, Jackie Lee-Kang, Jean-Pierre Ciudad, Monika E. Gromek, Thomas K.

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.

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: 20130019237Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for associating an application for installation on a computer with a user account on an online store. A system configured to practice the method presents an application available for download, receives from a client device a software adoption request including an identifier associated with a user account and a proof of entitlement associated with a software package or the user account, verifies the proof of entitlement by comparing the proof of entitlement to a database, and if the proof of entitlement is verified, adopts the software package as part of the user account.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2012Publication date: January 17, 2013Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Pedraum R.
