An object is to provide a mobile electronic device and a character input method which can shorten a view point movement distance of a user even in a state where the display screen of the display unit is used horizontally. The control unit displays the first character kind character left aligned on an upper side of the display screen, and displays the second character kind character right aligned on a lower side of the display screen. When a predetermined operation is performed with the operation unit, the control unit maintains the display of either one of the first character kind character and the second character kind character on the display screen according to the operated action while maintaining the display position, and deletes the display of the other one of the first character kind character and the second character kind character.

Mobile electronic device and character input method

According to one of aspects, an electronic device, includes: a first communication unit configured to perform communication using a first communication scheme; a second communication unit configured to perform communication using a second communication scheme; and a control unit. When the first communication unit detects an incoming call, the control unit transfers the incoming call to which information linked with an incoming call number of the incoming call is added from the second communication unit to a specific electronic device.

Electronic device and call transfer control method

The portable electronic device includes an operation unit, a storage unit, a setting unit, and a control unit. The operation unit inputs characters. The storage unit stores a first conversion table and a second conversion table different from the first conversion table. The second conversion table is different from the first conversion table. The setting unit sets a first mode and a second mode. In a case in which the first mode has been set by the setting unit, the control unit refers to the first conversion table when characters input by way of an operation of the operation unit are converted into another type of characters or character set. In a case in which the second mode has been set by the setting unit, the control unit refers to the second conversion table when characters input by way of an operation of the operation unit are converted into another type of characters or character set.

Portable electronic device, control method, and control program

A portable electronic apparatus is provided. The portable electronic apparatus includes a display section, an operating section, a setting section which switches and sets, based on an operation to the operating section, a pseudo power-off mode in which electric power is not supplied to the display section and a crime prevention function is enabled and a power-on mode in which the electric power is supplied to the display section and entire functions including the crime prevention function are enabled, and a control section which switches the pseudo power-off mode into the power-on mode when the crime prevention function is used in a state where the pseudo power-off mode is set by the setting section.

Portable electronic apparatus, switching control method and control program

Disclosed is an electronic device that makes it easy to input desired characters using a directional key. Also disclosed is a display control method for an electronic device. The disclosed electronic device is provided with a display unit (), a user input unit () that can specify a plurality of directions, and a control unit (). If one of the plurality of directions is specified via the user input unit () while characters and numbers are being displayed on the display unit (), the control unit selects different characters and different numbers for changing the characters and/or numbers displayed on the display unit () to other characters and numbers. The control unit then has the display unit () display the selected other characters and numbers.

Electronic device

Provided is an electronic device which easily selects and executes an application relating to characters inputted by a user. A cellular phone is provided with a display unit which displays a character input screen, an operation unit for inputting characters to be displayed on the character input screen, and a control unit which controls the display unit to display a candidate for conversion or a predicted candidate of the characters inputted using the operation unit. The control unit displays the name of an application or the name of a processing in the application as the candidate for conversion or a predicted candidate, and when either name is selected, executes the processing of the application corresponding to the selected name.
