Patent number: 9715394Abstract: Methods and a computer program product for providing a user interface including earlier versions of data. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes receiving, while a current view is displayed in a user interface, a first user input requesting that a backup interface be displayed. In response to the first user input, the transition from displaying the current view in the user interface to displaying the backup interface is animated. The backup interface is displayed including a display area for presenting at least a first visual representation of an earlier version of the current view, where the earlier version includes a first element. While the backup interface is displayed, a second user input is received requesting that the current view be modified according to the earlier version. In response to the second user input, the current view is modified according to the earlier version.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2012Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Pavel Cisler, Mike Matas, Marcel M W A van Os, Gregory N. Christie, Kevin Tiene, Gene Zyrl Ragan, Scott Forstall

Patent number: 8538927Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a user interface including earlier versions of data. In one implementation, computer program product is provided. The computer program product generates a user interface. The user interface includes a view display area for presenting a current view and a history view display area for presenting a history view associated with the current view. The history view includes one or more first visual representations of corresponding earlier versions of the current view. The user interface also includes an input control for initiating a restoration of the current view according to at least a portion of an earlier version of the one or more earlier versions.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2010Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Pavel Cisler, Mike Matas, Gregory N.

Patent number: 8495024Abstract: Systems and methods for navigating within snapshots are provided. In one implementation a method is provided. The method includes receiving, while a current view is displayed in a user interface, a first user input requesting that a history view associated with the current view be displayed. The history view is displayed in response to the first user input, the history view including at least a first visual representation of an earlier version of the current view, the earlier version including a hierarchical structure wherein a first element of the earlier version includes a second element. There is received, while the history view is displayed, a second user input requesting that the current view be modified according to the second element. The method includes modifying, in response to the second user input, the current view according to the second element.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2010Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Pavel Cisler, Gene Zyrl Ragan, Mike Matas, Gregory N.
