Methods, systems, and products for locating files
View Patent ↗Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for locating files. Upon receipt of caller identification information, a search is performed to identify all files associated with the caller identification information. A presentation of the caller identification information is caused.
1. A method of locating files stored in a device when a call is received, comprising:
receiving caller identification information at a processor of the device;
upon receipt of the caller identification information, searching all file paths in memory of the device to identify all files associated with the caller identification information that are stored in the memory; and
causing presentation of a list of all the files associated with the caller identification information.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising causing presentation of the caller identification information.
3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising causing presentation of an icon for obtaining the list of all the files associated with the caller identification information.
4. The method according to claim 3 , further comprising receiving a selection of the icon.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein upon selection of the icon, then further comprising retrieving the list of all the files related to the caller identification information.
6. The method according to claim 5 , further comprising receiving a selection of a file in the list.
7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising launching an application program associated with the selection of the file.
8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising receiving the call.
9. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising associating a file to the caller identification information.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein searching to identify all the files comprises searching for at least one of word processing files and spreadsheet files that are associated with the caller identification information.
11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising establishing a file path to the files related to the caller identification information.
12. A system for locating files stored in memory when a call is received, comprising:
a computing device; and
a software application stored in the memory that when executed causes the computing device at least to:
receive caller identification information;
upon receipt of the caller identification information, search all file paths to identify all files stored in the memory that are associated with the caller identification information; and
display a list of all the files associated with the caller identification information.
13. The system according to claim 12 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to cause presentation of the caller identification information.
14. The system according to claim 12 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to cause presentation of an icon for obtaining the list of all the files associated with the caller identification information.
15. The system according to claim 14 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to receive a selection of the icon.
16. The system according to claim 15 , wherein upon selection of the icon, then the software application further causes the computing device to retrieve the list of all the files related to the caller identification information.
17. The system according to claim 16 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to receive a selection of a file in the list.
18. The system according to claim 17 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to launch an application program associated with the selected file.
19. The system according to claim 12 , wherein the software application further causes the computing device to associate a file to the caller identification information.
20. A computer readable memory storing processor executable instructions for performing a method of locating files stored in memory when a call is received, the method comprising:
receiving caller identification information associated with the call;
upon receipt of the caller identification information, searching all file paths in the memory to identify multiple files associated with the caller identification information that are stored in the memory; and
causing presentation of the caller identification information with a list of the multiple files associated with the caller identification information.
