FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: method comprises: receiving the selection made by the external input device, target information displayed on the first device; retrieving the target information corresponding to the selection made by the external input device; and transmitting information corresponding to the target information to the external input device. When information is transmitted, the size of information corresponding to the target information is detected; if the size of the information corresponding to the target information is larger than the storage capacity of the external input device, only the metadata corresponding to the target information is transmitted. The metadata corresponding to the target information contains information used to transmit the target information from the external storage device to the second device.
EFFECT: ensuring information sharing using an external input device without the need for connection between the first and second devices, even if the memory size of the input device is insufficient.
