Abstract: An electronic device comprising: a memory; and at least one processor configured to: install an application by using an installation file associated with the application; grant at least one permission to the application based on a permission setting token that is included in the installation file; and store, in a database, an indication that the application is granted the permission.

Abstract: A method acquires program guide information in an image signal receiver, and program guide method and apparatus using the same. In the program guide apparatus, information immediately required by a user is obtained first, and information of less preferential channels is obtained next, thus presenting a smooth interface to the user. The method of acquiring program guide information for channels includes acquiring the program guide information for each channel by scanning accessible channels while a received program is not displayed. The program guide apparatus includes a tuner tuning a channel, a program guide information detector, a memory, a key input, a microprocessor, and a character signal generator.
