Abstract
A data management method and apparatus of a portable terminal improves memory utilization efficiency using a data move/copy function which allows moving or copying the user data preserved in the non-volatile memory region of the memory of a portable terminal. A data management method for a portable terminal includes selecting at least one user data item in response to a selection request. An extended region for backup of the user data item is checked in response to a backup request. Transfer data corresponding to the user data item is created. The transfer data is stored in the extended region as a backup of the user data item.

14. A data management method for a portable terminal, comprising:
-
detecting a backup request for backing up user data stored in an internal storage region of the portable terminal; generating transfer data representing the user data in response to the backup request; storing the transfer data into one of an internal extended region and an external region as a backup of the user data; and determining a backup mode of the backup request that indicates one of maintaining the user data in the internal storage region and deleting the user data from the internal storage region after storing the transfer data. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A portable terminal comprising:
-
a user interface configured to receive user input; a memory configured to store user data; and a controller coupled to the user interface, the display, and the memory, the controller configured to; detect a backup request from the user input for backing up the user data stored in an internal storage region of the memory, generate transfer data representing the user data in response to the backup request, store the transfer data into one of an internal extended region of the memory and an external storage device as a backup of the user data, and determine a backup mode of the backup request that indicates one of maintaining the user data in the internal storage region and deleting the user data from the internal storage region after storing the transfer data. - View Dependent Claims (20)
