Abstract
This invention is to ensure synchronization between images in an information apparatus with those in an external device without bothering a user while reflecting the user's intension of whether to make an image open to the public. Only images in groups with the same group ID are synchronized without synchronizing albums in the information apparatus with albums in the external device. In addition synchronization processing is controlled by switching a flag indicating a flag to inhibit upload to the Web server.
