The obtaining unit obtains apparatus specifying information for uniquely specifying an apparatus. The first specifying unit specifies application identifying information associated with the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit, based on first correspondence information in which each piece of apparatus specifying information is associated with application identifying information for identifying an application available to the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information. The display controlling unit performs control to display an application list screen to provide the application identified according to the application identifying information specified by the first specifying unit on the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An information processing system comprising: an obtaining unit configured to obtain apparatus specifying information for uniquely specifying an apparatus; a first specifying unit configured for specifying application identifying information associated with the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit, based on first correspondence information in which each piece of apparatus specifying information is associated with application identifying information for identifying an application available to the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information; and a display controlling unit configured to perform control to display an application list screen to provide the application identified according to the application identifying information specified by the first specifying unit on the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the first correspondence information includes second correspondence information in which each piece of shop identifying information for identifying a shop which sells the apparatus is associated with the apparatus specifying information, and third correspondence information in which the each piece of shop identifying information is associated with the application identifying information, and the first specifying unit includes a second specifying unit configured to specify, based on the second correspondence information, the shop identifying information that is associated with the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit, and a third specifying unit configured to specify, based on the third correspondence information, the application identifying information that is associated with the shop identifying information specified by the second specifying unit. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The information processing system according to claim 1, wherein the display controlling unit generates the application list screen in such a manner that an application other than the application identified according to the application identifying information specified by the first specifying unit are not displayed. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The information processing system according to claim 1, further comprising: an application usage controlling unit configured to perform control to cause the apparatus to use an application selected by a user from among one or more applications displayed on the application list screen. ### Claim 5 An information processing device comprising: an obtaining unit configured to obtain apparatus specifying information for uniquely specifying an apparatus; a first specifying unit configured for specifying application identifying information associated with the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit, based on first correspondence information in which each piece of apparatus specifying information is associated with application identifying information for identifying an application available to the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information; and a display controlling unit configured to perform control to display an application list screen to provide the application identified according to the application identifying information specified by the first specifying unit on the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining unit. ### Claim 6 An information processing method comprising: obtaining apparatus specifying information for uniquely specifying an apparatus; specifying application identifying information associated with the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining, based on first correspondence information in which each piece of apparatus specifying information is associated with application identifying information for identifying an application available to the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information; and performing control to display an application list screen to provide the application identified according to the application identifying information specified by the specifying on the apparatus specified according to the apparatus specifying information obtained by the obtaining. ### Claim 7 (depends on 2) The information processing system according to claim 2, further comprising: an application usage controlling unit configured to perform control to cause the apparatus to use an application selected by a user from among one or more applications displayed on the application list screen. ### Claim 8 (depends on 3) The information processing system according to claim 3, further comprising: an application usage controlling unit configured to perform control to cause the apparatus to use an application selected by a user from among one or more applications displayed on the application list screen.
