Abstract
An image generation unit generates image data to be displayed on an outputting apparatus. An acceptance unit accepts operation information of inputting units provided in an inputting apparatus. A sharing processing unit carries out, when the acceptance unit accepts operation information of particular one of the inputting units provided in the inputting apparatus, a process of sharing the image data generated by the image generation unit or information relating to the image data. The particular inputting unit provided in the inputting apparatus is used by a user to input operation information to system software of an information processing apparatus, and the sharing processing unit carries out the sharing process only when the acceptance unit accepts the operation information of the particular inputting unit.
