    Abstract: This invention is directed to an electronic device with an embedded authentication system for restricting access to device resources. The authentication system may include one or more sensors operative to detect biometric information of a user. The sensors may be positioned in the device such that the sensors may detect appropriate biometric information as the user operates the device, without requiring the user to perform a step for providing the biometric information (e.g., embedding a fingerprint sensor in an input mechanism instead of providing a fingerprint sensor in a separate part of the device housing). In some embodiments, the authentication system may be operative to detect a visual or temporal pattern of inputs to authenticate a user. In response to authenticating, a user may access restricted files, applications (e.g., applications purchased by the user), or settings (e.g., application settings such as contacts or saved game profile).

    Abstract: A graphical user interface ("GUI") can be presented on a remote control accessory device that has user input and display devices. The GUI can be defined and managed by a portable media device that is controlled using the GUI. The portable media device can provide the accessory with a GUI image to be displayed. The accessory can send information to the portable media device indicative of a user operation of an input device in response to the displayed image. The portable media device can process this input to identify the action requested by the user and take the appropriate action, which can include updating the GUI image provided to the accessory.

    Abstract: Una interfaz gráfica de usuario ("GUI") puede presentarse en un dispositivo accesorio de control remoto que tiene dispositivos de participación del usuario y visualización. La GUI puede definirse y administrarse por un dispositivo portátil de almacenamiento de medios que se controla usando la GUI. El dispositivo portátil de almacenamiento de medios puede ofrecer al accesorio una imagen de la GUI que se mostrará. El accesorio puede enviar información al dispositivo portátil de almacenamiento de medios, indicativa de una operación por parte del usuario de un dispositivo de entrada en respuesta a la imagen mostrada. El dispositivo portátil de almacenamiento de medios puede procesar esta entrada para identificar la acción solicitada por el usuario y tomar la acción apropiada, lo cual puede incluir actualizar la imagen de la GUI proporcionada al accesorio.

    Abstract: A graphical user interface ("GUI") can be presented on a remote control accessory device that has user input and display devices. The GUI may be defined and managed by a portable media device such as an ipod TM that is controlled using the GUI. The portable media device can provide the accessory with a GUI image to be displayed. The accessory which may be an in car or in flight system or gym equipment, a can send information to the portable media device indicative of a user operation of an input device in response to the displayed image. The portable media device can process this input to identify the action requested by the user and take the appropriate action, which can include updating the GUI image provided to the accessory. Parameters such as characteristics of the accessory display device refresh rate, colour depth, display format may be provided to the portable media player so that an appropriate menu interface can be pushed to the connected accessory. Environmental information such as whether the car is in motion, whether it is day or night (based on whether car headlights are on), navigational guidance, or for gym equipment, heart rate, calories burned, speed or workout times may be provided to the media device in or to adjust the response.
