Connected device activation

1. A method of accessing contents on a device, the method comprising:

identifying, using a processor, a connection of the device to an information handling device;

receiving, at the information handling device, an indication of a user selection action on the device, wherein the user selection action corresponds to two consecutive taps on the device;

performing, responsive to receiving the indication, an action on the information handling device, wherein the performing the action comprises opening, on the information handling device, at least one file stored on the device; and

performing another action, different than the action, responsive to receiving an indication that another user selection action was detected on the device, wherein the another user selection action corresponds to three consecutive taps on the device and wherein the performing the another action comprises closing, on the information handling device, the at least one file.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user selection action corresponds to a touch selection on the device.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the touch selection comprises touch contact with the device for a minimum predetermined amount of time.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user selection action further comprises a gaze selection for a predetermined amount of time.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein a type of the user selection action controls the action performed on the information handling device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing comprises automatically performing the action without additional user input.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the opening comprises displaying at least one window listing the at least one file stored on the device.

8. An information handling device for accessing contents on a device, the information handling device comprising:

a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:

identify a connection of a device to the information handling device;

receive an indication of a user selection action on the device, wherein the user selection action corresponds to two consecutive taps on the device;

perform, responsive to receiving the indication, an action on the information handling device, wherein the performing the action comprises opening, on the information handling device, at least one file stored on the device; and

perform another action, different than the action, responsive to receiving an indication that another user selection action was detected on the device, wherein the another user selection action corresponds to three consecutive taps on the device and wherein the performing the another action comprises closing, on the information handling device, the at least one file.

9. The information handling device of claim 8 , wherein the user selection action corresponds to a touch selection on the device.

10. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the touch selection comprises touch contact with the device for a minimum predetermined amount of time.

11. The information handling device of claim 8 , wherein the user selection action further comprises a gaze selection for a predetermined amount of time.

12. The information handling device of claim 8 , wherein a type of the user selection action controls the action performed on the information handling device.

13. The information handling device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor to perform comprise instructions executable by the processor to automatically perform the action without additional user input.

14. The information handling device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor to open comprise instructions executable by the processor to display at least one window listing the at least one file stored on the device.

15. A product for accessing contents on a device, the product, comprising:

a storage device that stores code, the code being executable by a processor and comprising:

code that identifies a connection of a device to an information handling device;

code that receives an indication of a user selection action on the device, wherein the user selection action corresponds to two consecutive taps on the device;

code that performs, responsive to receiving the indication, an action, wherein the code that performs the action comprises code that opens at least one file stored on the device; and

code that performs another action, different than the action, responsive to receiving an indication that another user selection action was detected on the device, wherein the another user selection action corresponds to three consecutive taps on the device and wherein the code that performs the another action comprises code that closes the at least one file.
