    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.

    Abstract: DEVICE, METHOD, AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR SYNCHRONIZING TWO OR MORE DISPLAYS A device displays a first user interface on a first display, including a plurality of objects and corresponding to a second user interface on a second display. While a first object is displayed as a selected object in the second user interface, the device: detects a first input requesting information about a second object; and in response to detecting the first input, displays information about the second object in the first user interface and maintains display of the first object as the selected object in the second user interface. After displaying the information, the device detects a second input selecting the second object. In response to detecting selection of the second input, the device: displays the second object as the selected object in the first user interface; and provides, to the second display, information that enables the second user interface to display the second object as the selected object.

    Abstract: Remote user interfaces for portable media devices provided improved access by accessories to media assets and metadata stored in a database of a portable media device, enhancing a user's ability to control operation of the portable media device using a remote user interface provided by the accessory. In one example, an accessory can determine whether the database of the portable media device was updated while the portable media device was disconnected from the accessory. In a second example, an accessory can create and manage a playlist for the portable media device and can incorporate into the playlist tracks already queued for playback when the accessory connects to the portable media device. In a third example, an accessory can obtain database navigation history and initialize a database navigation interface to match the database navigation history.
