Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for associating an application that was pre-installed on a computer with a user account on an online store. A system configured to practice the method presents an application available for download, receives a request to download the application to a computing devices, determines that the application is a pre-installed application, presents an authorization prompt configured to request user authorization to link the application with a user account, receives the user authorization, generates a unique hardware identifier associated with the computing devices, determines that the application is linkable based upon the unique hardware identifier, and links the adoptable application with the user account when the adoptable application is linkable.

System and method for linking pre-installed software to a user account on an online store

Providing an online store interface that maintains continuity of a user browsing experience by layering a product view on top of referring product views or online-store pages such that a user can navigate back to the referring page without needing the previous page to reload, and re-navigate to the point the user left off. Providing the ability for an item preview to continue even when a user navigates the online store interface away from the preview page further preserves browsing continuity. The present technology also provides a mechanism for allowing users to specify favorite categories and have them listed as tabs in the user interface when the online store is browsed with an appropriate device.

Interface for enhanced continuity of browsing experience

A first user interface is displayed on an electronic device. The first user interface is associated with a first internal node of a content hierarchy, and includes a context region, a header region comprising information identifying the first internal node, and a child-node region comprising one or more selectable identifiers that correspond to one or more child nodes of the first internal node. A selection of a respective child-node identifier is detected. In response, a transition to a second user interface associated with the respective child node is displayed. The transition comprises, while maintaining display of the one or more selectable labels in the context region, moving the respective child-node identifier upward toward the header region, and updating the context region by transforming the information identifying the first internal node into a selectable label identifying the first internal node as an ancestor node of the respective child node.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for navigating a content hierarchy

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for associating an application that was pre-installed on a computer with a user account on an online store. A system configured to practice the method presents an application available for download, receives a request to download the application to a computing device, determines that the application is a pre-installed application, presents an authorization prompt configured to request user authorization to link the application with a user account, receives the user authorization, generates a unique hardware identifier associated with the computing device, determines that the application is linkable based upon the unique hardware identifier, and links the adoptable application with the user account when the adoptable application is linkable.

Systems and method are provided for delivering notifications to user regarding use of their authentication information. The delivery of notifications involves ascertaining a device identifier associated with a request received from a user device to engage in a transaction using the authentication information and comparing this device identifier associated with the request to a plurality of known device identifiers previously associated with the authentication information. Thereafter, a notification for a user associated with the authentication information can be generated and delivered, if the device identifier is not among the plurality of known device identifiers. In the systems and methods, contact information for delivering the notification is based on contact information for at least one previous transaction that meets a selection criteria and that is associated with the authentication information.
