An electronic device can communicate with an external device according to a predetermined method. The electronic device includes a power switch operable to receive an operation for switching on and off the electronic device, a detector operable to detect a connection between the electronic device and the external device according to the predetermined method, and a requestor operable to request the external device to supply power. When the detector detects the connection between the electronic device and the external device with the power switch being ON, the requestor does not request the external device to supply the power in an establishing process for establishing the communication with the external device. When the detector detects the connection between the electronic device and the external device and the power switch is switched from ON into OFF, the requestor requests the external device to supply the power in the establishing process.
