Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a providing unit, an obtaining unit, and an informing unit. The providing unit provides a certain service to a user. The obtaining unit obtains identification information included in receivable radio waves. The informing unit provides information how a user is able to use the service provided by the providing unit if a place where the user is positioned is not a place where the service is available. The place where the user is positioned is estimated by the identification information obtained by the obtaining unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an obtaining unit and a starting unit. The obtaining unit obtains identification information included in receivable radio waves. The starting unit starts a software program which is usable in a place where a user is positioned. The place where the user is positioned is estimated from the identification information obtained by the obtaining unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus for displaying a list of pieces of image data, includes a data processing section, a display information generating section and a display section. The data processing section classifies the pieces of image data, which are to be displayed in the list, into image groups based on information contained in the respective pieces of image data. The display information generating section generates display information, which represents a list including a representative image of each image group, based on a result of the classification by the data processing section. The display section outputs the display information generated by the display information generating section.

Abstract: An image editing system having an image forming apparatus and an expansion box. The image forming apparatus includes an image inputting part which inputs the original image as an image, an image processing part which converts image information of an input color coordinate system into an output color coordinate system, an image outputting part which prints out image information of the output color coordinate system, and a first connection part which performs exchanging the image information of the output color coordinate system between the image forming apparatus and an external device. The expansion box includes a second connection part which is connected with the first connection part and a storing part which stores the image information and provides the expansion of image editing function.
