A control method for an information processing apparatus includes transmitting, by a first communication unit, information about an access point to which a second communication unit is connected, to a communication apparatus to which the first communication unit is connected. In a case where the information about the access point to which the second communication unit is connected is received, the communication apparatus connects to and communicates with the access point to which the second communication unit is connected by the second wireless communication method.

Information processing apparatus, control method for information processing apparatus, and control method for communication system

An information processing method is implemented by executing a processing application program by an information processing apparatus configured to perform display. When the transmitted information including app information regarding another application program is received from a server, a received predetermined object is displayed on a display device. The transmitted information includes types of app information pieces corresponding to operating systems. The app information is extracted from among the types of app information pieces. The extracted app information corresponds to an operating system on which the processing application program is operated. A process based on the transmitted information is executed when a user indicates the displayed predetermined object. As the process, a process for causing the other application program to be installed on the information processing apparatus is executed based on the extracted app information when the other application program is not installed on the information processing apparatus.

Information processing method, information processing apparatus, and information processing system for transmitted information from a server

An information processing apparatus that communicates with a communication apparatus includes a connecting unit that connects to a first access point in the communication apparatus, a connection-information acquisition unit that acquires connection information for connecting to a second access point in the communication apparatus via the first access point, a storage unit that stores the acquired connection information in a memory, and a receiving unit that receives an instruction to transmit data. Upon receipt of an instruction to transmit data when the connecting unit is not connected to the second access point, the connecting unit connects to the second access point using the stored connection information stored in the storage unit, and when the connecting unit is connected to the second access point, the first access point is disabled.

Information processing apparatus, method for controlling the same, and computer-readable medium

A control method includes receiving, from a user through a screen displayed on a display unit by using a first program, an execution instruction to execute authentication processing for authenticating communication by a first wireless communication unit between a communication apparatus and an information processing apparatus, in a case where the execution instruction is received, displaying on the display unit by using a second program a setting screen for receiving from a user an input for selecting a target communication apparatus for the authentication processing from a plurality of communication apparatuses, and displaying on the display unit a notification region for notifying a user of information regarding an operation to be executed on the setting screen displayed on the display unit.

Control method

A control method for an information processing apparatus includes causing a display unit to display a screen including an accepting item for accepting a user instruction so as to perform setup processing that allows a communication apparatus that has transmitted first information to connect with an external access point, and performing the setup processing in which second information relating to the external access point is transmitted to the communication apparatus by a first wireless communication standard, in a case where the user instruction is performed on the accepting item. A connection between the communication apparatus and the external access point is performed based on the second information transmitted by the first wireless communication standard, and thus the information processing apparatus is able to communicate with the communication apparatus via the external access point by the communication based on a second wireless communication standard.

Information processing apparatus, control method and storage medium storing a program

In an information processing apparatus, a transmission unit transmits information stored by a storage unit to a communication apparatus when an access point corresponding to the information stored by the storage unit is an access point to which the communication apparatus is connectable, and transmits to the communication apparatus information on an access point selected using a displayed list when an access point corresponding to the information stored by the storage unit is not an access point to which the communication apparatus is connectable. The information processing apparatus communicates with the communication apparatus via an access point corresponding to information transmitted by the transmission unit.

Information processing apparatus, control method, and program

This invention relates to a conversion table compression method of compressing a conversion table and storing the conversion table in a storage medium, including an axial difference creating step of creating an axial difference table by calculating, from data stored in the conversion table, the difference values between grid points adjacent in predetermined directions along a plurality of axes which define the input space of the conversion table, a compressing step of compressing the axial difference table to create compressed data, and a storing step of storing the compressed data in a recording medium.
