A system and method for tracking and managing applications and content between a wireless device and a service. For example, in one embodiment, an 'uninstalled' field is used within records on a client device and identifying, whether each application on the client is installed or whether the application has been uninstalled. A corresponding set of records are provided on the data service for each individual client device, including the 'uninstalled' field. When an application is uninstalled on any client device, the corresponding record for that client device is updated on the service so that the service and the wireless device remain in synch.

Managing content synchronization between a data service and a data processing device

A system and method of managing objects in a wireless user terminal is described. When an object is created or added to a user terminal, the user terminal assigns a temporary ID to the object. The wireless user terminal can also be coupled to a server by a network. The object or a copy of the object and the object's temporary ID can also be transferred to the server. The server can then assign a permanent ID to the object. The permanent ID of the object can also be transferred to the wireless user terminal.
