Claiming the rights to the Apple 'Saveless' document.

Apple you to edit spreadsheets, presentations, but users don't have to save that describes the document, such as text and image documents, and submitted a patent application.


Assumes you can not save the technical documentation. While the software itself to save the document, save event "from pasting the interval of elapsed time, user input focus documents closing document content document content shifts from a document or remove formatting settings for document printing stop" would be caused.


You can save the document in addition to, using the content from the user different document versions to keep all versions of the software also automatically edited documents at the same time. According to the applicant, saveless a document increases user convenience "closing document user's unsaved changes to documents when you ask or not bothered by warning of the termination of the application". Actually save our how to use in the event users fully can be ignored today.


Feature set is reminiscent of editing in the cloud is. However, this particular patent was not related services instead of locally installed software into the cloud. How this works pretty good idea is necessary for those who use the Mac OS X Lion 10.7.
