Abstract: An information processing method, which is applied to a server, includes: a public message is transmitted to a first client, the public message being a message issued to the first client by the server, the public message carrying first information and a second information set including N pieces of second information, with N being a positive integer, the first information is information only allowed to be gotten by the first client and the second information is information only allowed to be gotten by a client in a sharing relationship with the first client; and a request for getting the second information is received from a second client, it is verified whether the second client is in the sharing relationship with the first client, and after the second client is determined to be in the sharing relationship with the first client, the second client is allowed to get the second information.

Abstract: A method for updating a configuration of software is disclosed. The method is performed at a terminal device having one or more processors and memory for storing programs to be executed by the one or more processors. The method includes sending, to a server device, a request for updating the software configuration. The request includes a version number of a software configuration parameter group, which includes a group of parameters associated with the software configuration. The method also includes receiving, from the server device and in response to the request, data of the software configuration parameter group and a latest version number of the software configuration parameter group when that latest version number is different than the version number included in the request. The method further includes updating the software configuration based on the received data, and updating the version number based on the received latest version number.

Abstract: Method and device of facilitating online interactions using dynamic barcodes are disclosed. The method includes: a server receiving, from a first device, an interaction set-up request including information for an online interaction awaiting execution; in response to the interaction set-up request, generating an initial barcode in accordance with the interaction set-up request, wherein the initial barcode is configured to initiate subsequent execution of the online interaction when the initial barcode is scanned by a scanning device before expiration of the initial barcode; sending the initial barcode to the first device, wherein the first device is configured to cause the initial barcode to be displayed on a display device; and after sending the initial barcode, sending an updated barcode to the first device in accordance with predetermined barcode expiration criteria.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for service login to a service provider sites have been disclosed. The method including: receiving a login request from a user, wherein the login request comprises at least both terminal's login information input by the user and third party account information pertaining to the user; after successful verification on the third party account information, determining by the service provider, whether the terminal's login information input by the user matches to reference login information, wherein the reference login information comprises specific information of the user to further identify user's identity; if the terminal's login information matches to at least a portion of the reference login information, delivering service to the terminal according to the third party account information.

Abstract: In a method for control accessing to a communication account, a second terminal obtains the identification information of a first terminal, and sends the communication account information and identification information of the first terminal to the communication platform; the communication platform sends the communication account information to the first terminal based on the identification information. The first terminal sends the communication account information to a near-field communication (NFC) device and reads the communication account information stored in the NFC device when the distance between them is within the preset range. The first terminal then sends its identification information and the communication account information read from the NFC device to the communication platform. Based on communication account information and identification information, the communication platform controls the first terminal to log in by the use of communication account information.
