Method, system and apparatus for displaying content
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of manipulating on a mobile device, using a single software application configured to emulate a set of pre-defined manipulation operations of a plurality of different associated software applications, content items generated by said plurality of different associated software applications and stored in slow access memory on the mobile device, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) moving a selected plurality of said items stored in the slow access memory to a fast access memory said items stored in the fast access memory being designated as pseudo-active items;
(b) designating one of the pseudo-active items as an active item and displaying the active item and an associated tab;
(c) displaying tabs associated with the pseudo-active items without displaying the pseudo-active items;
(d) displaying a list of the pre-defined manipulation operations, said list having been pre-defined according to the associated software application originally used to generate the displayed active item;
(e) applying a displayed pre-defined manipulation operation associated with the active item to the displayed active item to form a manipulated active item; and
(f) in response to a selection of a displayed tab associated with a pseudo-active item, (i) storing the manipulated active item in the fast access memory and removing the manipulated active item from display, (ii) displaying the pseudo-active item associated with the selected tab, and (iii) designating the displayed item as the active item and the stored manipulated item as a pseudo-active item.

Abstract
A method (300) of manipulating on a mobile device (600), using a software application (133) configured to emulate manipulation operations of different associated software applications, content items stored in slow access memory (125) on the mobile device, the method comprising (a) storing a selected plurality of items in fast access memory (109); (b) designating one of the stored items as the active item and displaying (310) the active item and an associated tab; (c) displaying tabs associated with other stored items; (d) applying (316) an emulated manipulation operation associated with the active item to the active item; and (e) in response to a selection (320) of a displayed tab associated with another item, (i) storing (322) the manipulated active item in the fast access memory, (ii) displaying the other item associated with the selected tab.

4. A mobile device configured for manipulating, using a single software application configured to emulate a set of pre-defined manipulation operations of a plurality of different associated software applications, content items generated by said plurality of different associated software applications and stored in slow access memory on the mobile device, the mobile device comprising:
-
a processor; a fast access memory; and a slow access memory storing a computer executable software program for directing the processor to execute a method comprising the steps of; moving a selected plurality of said items stored in the slow access memory to a fast access memory said items stored in the fast access memory being designated as pseudo-active items; designating one of the pseudo-active items as an active item and displaying the active item and an associated tab; displaying tabs associated with the pseudo-active items without displaying the pseudo-active items; displaying a list of the pre-defined manipulation operations, said list having been pre-defined according to the associated software application originally used to generate the displayed active item; applying a displayed pre-defined manipulation operation associated with the active item to the displayed active item to form a manipulated active item; and in response to a selection of a displayed tab associated with a pseudo-active item, (i) storing the manipulated active item in the fast access memory and removing the manipulated active item from display, (ii) displaying the pseudo-active item associated with the selected tab, and (iii) designating the displayed item as the active item and the stored manipulated item as a pseudo-active item.

5. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a computer executable software program configured to emulate a set of pre-defined manipulation operations of a plurality of different associated software applications, for directing a processor to execute a method, in a mobile device, for manipulating content items generated by said plurality of different associated software applications and stored in slow access memory on the mobile device, the program comprising:
-
computer executable code for moving a selected plurality of said items stored in the slow access memory to a fast access memory said items stored in the fast access memory being designated as pseudo-active items; computer executable code for designating one of the pseudo-active items as an active item and displaying the active item and an associated tab; computer executable code for displaying tabs associated with the pseudo-active items without displaying the pseudo-active items; computer executable code for displaying a list of the pre-defined manipulation operations, said list having been pre-defined according to the associated software application originally used to generate the displayed active item; computer executable code for applying a displayed pre-defined manipulation operation associated with the active item to the displayed active item to form a manipulated active item; and computer executable code for, in response to a selection of a displayed tab associated with a pseudo-active item, (i) storing the manipulated active item in the fast access memory and removing the manipulated active item from display, (ii) displaying the pseudo-active item associated with the selected tab, and (iii) designating the displayed item as the active item and the stored manipulated item as a pseudo-active item.
