and setting the operation position to the position based on the image information acquired in the acquiring. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the position is one of positions in a range from the operation position. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method according to claim 2, wherein the acquiring acquires a plurality of pieces of the image information corresponding to the positions in the range, and the method further comprises selecting the position from the positions based on the pieces of the image information acquired in the acquiring. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method according to claim 3, wherein the acquiring acquires a plurality of pieces of image information of a cursor of which the image information is updated when a position of the cursor is set to each of the positions in the range, and the selecting selects the position based on a number of positions of pieces of the image information of the cursor that are same among the positions in the range. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method according to claim 4, wherein the selecting selects the position among positions of pieces of the image information of the cursor that are same is smallest. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The method according to claim 4, wherein the selecting selects the position among positions at which a first line and a second line intersect with each other, and the first line is formed by connecting first positions of the pieces of the image information of the cursor that are same to each other, and the second line is formed by connecting second positions different from the first positions of the pieces of the image information of the cursor that are same to each other. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, further comprising: generating image information of an enlarged image obtained by enlarging an image of which the image information acquired in the acquiring; and transmitting the image information generated in the generating to a terminal device coupled to the information processing apparatus, and wherein the setting sets the operation position to the position based on operation information of an operation performed in the enlarged image displayed on the terminal device. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, comprising: starting the acquiring when the information processing apparatus receives operation information of a specific operation from a terminal device coupled to the information processing apparatus. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein the operation information is input to a terminal device coupled to the information processing apparatus. ### Claim 10 (depends on 3) The method according to claim 3, further comprising: calculating the range to be within a threshold value relative to the operation position. ### Claim 11 (depends on 3) The method according to claim 3, wherein the position is selected based on image information of an update region acquired for each of the positions. ### Claim 12 A system including an information processing apparatus coupled to a terminal device, the information processing apparatus comprising: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: acquire image information updated when an operation position specified based on operation information is set to a position different from the operation position; and set the operation position to the position based on the image information. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, wherein the position is one of positions in a range from the operation position. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method according to claim 13, wherein the acquiring acquires a plurality of pieces of the image information corresponding to the positions in the range, and the method further comprises selecting the position from the positions based on the pieces of the image information acquired in the acquiring. ### Claim 15 An information processing apparatus, comprising: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: acquire image information updated when an operation position specified based on operation information is set to a position different from the operation position; and set the operation position to the position based on the image information. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The method according to claim 15, wherein the position is one of positions in a range from the operation position. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The method according to claim 16, wherein the acquiring acquires a plurality of pieces of the image information corresponding to the positions in the range, and the method further comprises selecting the position from the positions based on the pieces of the image information acquired in the acquiring. ### Claim 18 A recording medium storing a program that causes an information processing apparatus to execute a procedure comprising: acquiring image information updated when an operation position specified based on operation information is set to a position different from the operation position; and setting the operation position to the position based on the image information. ### Claim 19 (depends on 18) The method according to claim 18, wherein the position is one of positions in a range from the operation position. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The method according to claim 19, wherein the acquiring acquires a plurality of pieces of the image information corresponding to the positions in the range, and the method further comprises selecting the position from the positions based on the pieces of the image information acquired in the acquiring.
