Abstract: A method and apparatus for reserving a usable storage space on a storage device is provided. The method includes collecting context data representing an environment surrounding the storage device; selecting at least one file from among files stored in the storage device by using at least one of the context data and user profile data; and processing the selected file and reserving a usable storage space on the storage device. The method reserves the usable storage space by using the context data or user profile data, thereby allowing efficient reserving of usable storage space without a user's manual intervention and preventing waste of unnecessary resources.

Abstract: A method and device for transferring content between electronic devices are provided. The method of transferring a content file in a communication device includes receiving information related to the content file from a portable electronic device through near field communication, receiving the content file from the portable electronic device through a second communication channel, and transferring the received information related to the content file and the content file to another communication device through a first communication channel.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method for managing an electronic device setting are provided. When a predetermined user command is inputted, the electronic device determines user information of a user of the electronic device, identifies user information of a plurality of users from plurality of sources, compares the user information of the user of the electronic device and the user information of the plurality of users, and determines at least one user who has a high similarity level to the user of the electronic device among the plurality of users based on a comparison result, receives an electronic device setting from at least one user who has a high similarity level, and displays an electronic device setting which was received from a user who has a highest similarity level among the received electronic device settings.
