Abstract
A method and apparatus for re-prioritizing a background transfer of teleconference object data is accomplished by moving the background transfer to a highest priority of a transfer queue if part of the background transfer has previously been transferred. If part of the background transfer has not previously been transferred, then the background transfer is moved ahead of a prior entry in the transfer queue if a second background transfer corresponding to the prior entry has not previously transferred a predetermined amount of teleconference data. The predetermined amount of data may be determined as a percentage of a total amount of teleconference object data which is to be transferred, or by an amount of time it will take to complete transferring the teleconference object data.
