An information processing apparatus includes an acquiring unit, an executing unit, and a controller. The acquiring unit acquires operational information indicating an operation performed at a second apparatus by a user. The executing unit executes a process. The controller causes a display to display information indicating a recommended process to be executed by the executing unit after the operation. The recommended process is set based on the operational information.

There is provided a mechanism for determining whether to perform processing of lifting up a document tray upon detection of a document depending on an active application. A method for controlling an image processing apparatus includes lifting up a document tray upon placement of a document on the document tray, conveying the document placed on the document tray lifted up in the lifting, reading the document conveyed in the conveying, and registering, for an application, whether to lift up the document tray upon the placement of the document on the document tray.

An information processing apparatus includes: an external apparatus control unit controlling an external apparatus in accordance with data output from a task executing a processing program defining processing for outputting data to be processed by the external apparatus; and a determination unit determining whether a version of the processing program is newer than a known version, wherein in a case where the version of the processing program is determined to be the same as the known version, the external apparatus control unit executes processing defined in advance for the known version, and in a case where the version of the processing program is determined to be newer than the known version, the external apparatus control unit executes processing defined in advance for the unknown version.

An information processing apparatus being communicable with a web server configured to provide a web page being capable of accepting instructions to control a printing apparatus, includes: a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a certificate of the web server; a verifying unit configured to verify the certificate; and a communicating unit configured to establish secure communication with the web server in a case where the verifying unit succeeds in verification and to establish unsecure communication with the web server in a case where the verifying unit fails in the verification.

An image processing apparatus includes a volatile first storage, a non-volatile second storage, a host controller, a guest controller, an emulator that emulates access to the first storage and the second storage by the host controller such that the guest controller accesses the first storage and the second storage, and an application portion that controls the host controller to access the first storage and the second storage. Any one of the application portion and the emulator includes a transfer portion that stores data that is stored in a predetermined region of the second storage in a certain region of the first storage before the application portion stops the second storage. The emulator includes an access destination converter that converts access to the second storage by the guest controller into access to the certain region of the first storage after the second storage is stopped.

A control method of an information processing apparatus includes: installing a predetermined program; and executing a predetermined notification to notify and prompt a user to reboot the information processing apparatus based on a case where a predetermined function is enabled in the information processing apparatus, the predetermined function being related to processing for a case where a shutdown operation of the information processing apparatus is performed.

A terminal device control method includes: a window mode information acquisition step of acquiring window mode information indicating any one of a single-window mode, which is a mode in which one application runs, and a multi-window mode, which is a mode in which a plurality of applications run in parallel, for a screen of a terminal device configured to cause an external device to perform operation by communicating to/from the external device; a switching step of making a switch, in a case in which the window mode information acquired in the window mode information acquisition step indicates the multi-window mode, to enable or disable a first operation, which is an operation to be performed at least in a time period in which a first application for causing the external device to perform operation runs, and is an operation regarding information to be transmitted from the external device to the terminal device; and a first operation execution step of executing the first operation in a case in which the switch has been made to enable the first operation in the switching step.

An information processing system includes an information processing apparatus that provides an electronic apparatus with a service by way of a web application. The system includes a memory and circuit. The memory is configured to store information relating to a setting item of the web application, and store a setting value to be set to the setting item. The circuitry is configured to generate a setting screen based on the information relating to the setting item and the setting value, and update the setting value stored in the memory based on an instruction for configuring settings relating to an operation screen of the web application that is displayed at the electronic apparatus, the instruction being accepted through the setting screen being displayed to the terminal apparatus.

An information processing apparatus is connectable to a server via a network, and includes an acquisition unit, a first display control unit, a storage unit, and a permission control unit. The acquisition unit acquires a first screen including an execution procedure of a first command from the server. The first display control unit performs control to display the first screen acquired by the acquisition unit. The storage unit stores therein one or more pieces of command information indicating information on a command permitted to be executed. The permission control unit does not permit execution of the first command when the one or more pieces of command information stored in the storage unit include no command information corresponding to the execution procedure of the first command selected from the first screen.

According to aspects of the present disclosure, in a memory of an MFP, information indicating that an additional function, which is inactivated when shipped from a factory, is activated or inactivated is stored. The MFP starts a trial mode in which trial of the additional function is activated, then the additional function becomes activated within an effective period of the trial mode. The MFP is configured to receive an input of setting information used for the additional function, store the input setting information in the memory and execute a process of the additional function in accordance with the setting information. Further, when the trial mode is terminated, the MFP initializes the setting information in a case where the stored information indicates that the additional function is inactivated, but does not initialize the setting information in a case where the stored information indicates that the additional function is activated.
