Communication apparatus, control method thereof, information processing apparatus, and recording medium

A control method for a communication apparatus, the method comprising:

• a specification step of specifying content to be transmitted to an external apparatus, out of pieces of content recorded in a recording medium;
• a first transmission step of, when a plurality of pieces of content is specified at the specification step, transmitting first content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus;
• a reception step of, after the first content is transmitted at the transmission step, receiving a notification of receipt of the first content from the external apparatus;
• a deletion step of, when the notification of receipt of the first content is received from the external apparatus at the reception step, deleting the first content from the recording medium;
• and
• a second transmission step of, after the first content is deleted at the deletion step, transmitting second content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus.

A recording medium storing a program for causing a communication apparatus to execute:

• a specification step of specifying content to be transmitted to an external apparatus, out of pieces of content recorded in the recording medium;
• a first transmission step of, when a plurality of pieces of content is specified at the specification step, transmitting first content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus;
• a reception step of, after the first content is transmitted at the transmission step, receiving a notification of receipt of the first content from the external apparatus;
• a deletion step of, when the notification of receipt of the first content is received from the external apparatus at the reception step, deleting the first content from the recording medium;
• and
• a second transmission step of, after the first content is deleted at the deletion step, transmitting second content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus.

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a content reception unit configured to receive specific content recorded in a recording medium of a first external apparatus;
• a request transmission unit configured to, after the content reception unit receives the specific content, transmit a request for deleting the specific content to the first external apparatus;
• a first notification reception unit configured to receive a notification of deletion of the specific content from the first external apparatus as a response to the request transmitted by the request transmission unit;
• a content transmission unit configured to, after the notification reception unit receives the notification of deletion of the specific content, transmit the specific content to a second external apparatus;
• a second notification reception unit configured to receive a notification that the reception of the specific content is completed from the second external apparatus;
• and
• a deletion unit configured to, when the notification reception unit receives the notification, delete the specific content.

A control method for an information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a content reception step of receiving specific content recorded in a recording medium of a first external apparatus;
• a request transmission step of, after the specific content is received, transmitting a request for deleting the specific content to the first external apparatus;
• a first notification reception step of receiving a notification of deletion of the specific content from the first external apparatus as a response to the transmitted request;
• a content transmission step of, after the notification of deletion of the specific content is received, transmitting the specific content to a second external apparatus;
• a second notification reception step of receiving a notification that the reception of the specific content is completed from the second external apparatus;
• and
• a deletion step of, when the notification that the reception of the specific content is completed is received, deleting the specific content.

A recording medium storing a program for causing an information processing apparatus to execute:

• a content reception step of receiving specific content recorded in a recording medium of a first external apparatus;
• a request transmission step of, after the specific content is received, transmitting a request for deleting the specific content to the first external apparatus;
• a first notification reception step of receiving a notification of deletion of the specific content from the first external apparatus as a response to the transmitted request;
• a content transmission step of, after the notification of deletion of the specific content is received, transmitting the specific content to a second external apparatus;
• a second notification reception step of receiving a notification that the reception of the specific content is completed from the second external apparatus;
• and
• a deletion step of, when the notification that the reception of the specific content is completed is received, deleting the specific content.
