Abstract:
Movement of a user's point of contact with a touch-sensitive display is determined. In response to the movement, a list of information items on the touch-sensitive display is scrolled. The list of information items may include a sequence of information item subsets corresponding to a sequence of index items. While scrolling through respective information subsets, an index symbol is displayed in conjunction with each respective information item subset.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a device displays content on a touch screen display and detects input by finger gestures. In response to the finger gestures, the device selects content, visually distinguishes the selected content, and/or updates the selected content based on detected input. In some embodiments, the device displays a command display area that includes one or more command icons; detects activation of a command icon in the command display area; and, in response to detecting activation of the command icon in the command display area, performs a corresponding action with respect to the selected content. Exemplary actions include cutting, copying, and pasting content.
Abstract:
Systems and techniques are disclosed for controlling, from a mobile device, media content stored on the mobile device to a media client for presentation on a display device. Data can be provided from the mobile device to the media client for identifying the location of the media content and a playback time. Based on the data, the media client can obtain a portion of the media content associated with the playback time. Also, playback of the media content on the display device can be controlled by a user of the mobile device.
Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a computer-implemented method for fetching email from an email server to a portable electronic device is disclosed. The method includes, at a portable electronic device configured with an email client: (1) when creating an email account on the portable electronic device: (a) attempting to connect to an outbound email server using a first port/security combination according to a first preferred sequence of port/security combinations; (b) if connection is made using the first port/security combination, storing the first port/security combination as a stored configuration for the email account; (c) if connection is not made using the first port/security combination, repeating (l)(a) for different port/security combinations according to the preferred sequence until connection is made with a second port/security combination; and (d) storing the second port/security combination as the stored configuration; and (2) subsequently employing the stored configuration to connect to and send email via the outbound email server.
Abstract:
A portable electronic device (100) displays, on a touch screen display (112), a user interface (600B) for a phone application during a phone call. In response to detecting activation (618) of a menu icon (204) or menu button, the UI (600B) for the phone application is replaced with a menu of application icons (700A, 700B), while maintaining the phone call. In response to detecting a finger gesture (702, 708) on a non-telephone service application icon (144, 149-2), displaying a user interface for the non-telephone service application (3000R) while continuing to maintain the phone call, the UI for the non-telephone service application (3000R) including a switch application icon (3078) that is not displayed in the UI (3000R) when there is no ongoing phone call. In response to detecting a finger gesture on the switch application icon (3078), replacing display of the UI for the non-telephone service application (3000R) with a respective UI for the phone application (600B) while continuing to maintain the phone call.
Abstract:
A computer- implemented method for displaying and managing lists on a portable multifunction device (100) with a touch screen display (112) includes displaying (602) a list of items, detecting (608) a finger contact (2724) on a moving-af fordance icon (2722), detecting (610) movement of the finger contact on the touch screen display, and in response to detecting the movement of the finger contact, moving (612) the moving-affordance icon and the corresponding item in the list in accordance with the movement of the finger contact. In some embodiments, at least some of the items have corresponding moving-af fordance icons (2722).
Abstract:
In a computer- implemented method, a portion of an electronic document (3912) is displayed on the touch screen display. The displayed portion of the electronic document has a vertical position in the electronic document (step 2332). An. object (202) is detected on or near the' displayed portion of the electronic document (step 2334). In response to detecting the object on or near the displayed portion of the electronic document, a vertical bar (3962) is displayed on top of the displayed portion of the electronic document. The vertical bar (3962) has a vertical position on top of the displayed portion of the electronic document that corresponds to the vertical position in the electronic document of the displayed portion of the electronic document (step 2336). After a predetermined condition is met, display of the vertical bar (3962) is ceased (step 2342). The vertical bar (3962) is displayed for a predetermined time period when the portion of the electronic document (3912) is initially displayed.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for management of voicemail messages, performed at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display, includes: displaying a list of voicemail messages; detecting selection by a user of a respective voicemail message in the list; responding to the user selection of the respective voicemail message by initiating playback of the user-selected voicemail message; displaying a progress bar for the user-selected voicemail message, wherein the progress bar indicates the portion of the user-selected voicemail message that has been played; detecting movement of a finger of the user from a first position on the progress bar to a second position on the progress bar; and responding to the detection of the finger movement by restarting playback of the user-selected voicemail message at a position within the user-selected voicemail message corresponding substantially to the second position on the progress bar.
