Abstract: The present invention provides a highly convenient removable device and a program startup method. A hub division unit 31 in a single composite device 2 allocates data exchange with the computer 1 side to a plurality of devices, thereby easily realizing a plurality of functions. When connected to a USB, a recognition control unit 32 returns a signal representing a CD-ROM in a simulated manner in response to inquiry about the type of the device from the host side. When a device is mounted, a desired processing such as a program execution described in the script is automatically performed without installing a resident program for detecting a device mounting in advance in the computer side.

- 30 May 2008
TL;DR: In this paper, a data backup system is provided that when coupled to a data source such as a personal computer, and a media player, such as an Apple Computer iPod, the data-backup system blocks certain communications between the data source and the media player thus preventing the data sources from recognizing the media players as such, thereby avoiding the launching of synchronization software for the Media player, and also causing the automatic launching of a backup application stored on the data backup application so that data files can be located on the source and then backed up to the music player.
