  • Patent number: 8645496
    Abstract: Systems and methods for backing up data of a client. In a system that includes clients in communication with a server, the data of the client is backed up by first enumerating writers that are active on a client. Metadata from the active writers is received and identifies data to be backed up. A snapshot of the client is taken and the client data identified in the metadata received from the writers is backed up from the snapshot.

  • Patent number: 8327288
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for facilitating the display and use of objects in content creation environments, for example, by ensuring minimum object size properties for objects that would otherwise appear small or invisible. Various methods evaluate how to display objects in a collection or arrangement of objects while addressing potential conflicts and paradoxes that might otherwise exist based on the how size properties of the objects are defined in relation to one another. Certain embodiments facilitate improved display of nested containers including those whose size properties are defined as size to content. Certain embodiments also facilitate the improved display of containers whose children's size properties depend upon container size properties.

  • Patent number: 8024292
    Abstract: Systems and methods for backing up and/or restoring data. When a backup operation is initiated, systems and methods are provided for creating a single snapshot of the backup items, including backup groupings. The single snapshot is used by a backup/recovery application to perform a save process on each backup grouping. By using the same snapshot, the backup is performed based on the same point in time so that the backed up data across the client system is consistent and synchronized. When a recovery operation is initiated, recovery items (e.g., backup groupings, writers and writer components) are selected from backup grouping of the client.

  • Patent number: 7605815
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating selection representations for items in a tree structure and applying selection representations to logical groupings. An exemplary method includes retrieving a first tree structure that reflects a hierarchy of data from at least one of memory or storage, identifying a first grouping of items in the first tree structure, identifying a remainder of items in the first tree structure, displaying the first grouping and the remainder of items in the first tree structure on the display, receiving positive selections or unselections of at least one of the first grouping of items or the remainder of items for including or excluding in performing a predetermined function on the positively selected or unselected items, generating a selection representation for the first grouping of items and the remainder of items based on the user input, and merging the selection representation for the first grouping of items and the remainder of items to generate a final selection representation.

  • Patent number: 7418619
    Abstract: Systems and methods for backing up or restoring interdependent applications. During a backup or recovery process, the writers and writer components included in the backup groupings of a client are displayed. Some of the writers and writer components can be individually selected for backup or recovery. Some of the writer components may have a dependency on a writer component in another writer. The dependency is automatically selected, although a user can disable the automatic selection of the dependency or deselect the dependency. The dependency is then backed up or recovered along with the selected writers and selected writer components.

  • Patent number: 7346799
    Abstract: Systems and methods for recovering data from a backup copy and for backing up data. When a recovery operation is initiated, recovery items are selected from backup groupings of the client. The recovery items can include backup groupings, writers, and writer components. After the recovery items are selected, backed up metadata for each selected writer is retrieved from the backed up data. The backed up metadata is then queried to identify the restore method of the writer. The data of the client is then recovered by implementing the restore method included in the backed up metadata of the writer. During a backup operation, some of the backup groupings, as well as the content of the backup groupings, can be individually selected for backup. In both backup and recovery, a visual indication may be provided to identify individual selectability.
