摘要

Arbitrary information such as a meeting schedule or the like input at an information processing apparatus which comprises a sensor for detecting the current position is stored in an external apparatus or the self-apparatus in association with position information detected by the sensor. By searching the stored information in accordance with the position information detected by the sensor at the beginning of movement of the information processing apparatus, arbitrary information to which that position information or position information corresponding to a position within a predetermined range around a position indicated by that position information is associated is acquired. The user is informed of the contents of the acquired arbitrary information, so that he or she can change a setup as new arbitrary information to be stored in the external apparatus or the self-apparatus. <IMAGE>
