I'm sorry but you can only delete e-mail accounts one at a time. This is to make sure that you wont delete the account you desired to keep in the phone.

Thank you for your inquiry.

Hi mikebigred,
Thank you for your inquiry.
There are no configurable options on the phone to play files which are DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected.
The handset includes support for Digital Rights Management (DRM) which allows you to view or play some purchased or subscription content. Copyright protections may prevent some images, music (including ringtones) and other content from being copied, modified, transferred or forwarded.

Hi rickkaul.
Thank you for your inquiry. Regarding the ability to sync with Outlook, Samsung does not provide an application for this option. However, you may sync your phone over the air with your Gmail account.
You need to create a Gmail account on the computer and set up your Gmail account on the phone. You also need to import/export your outlook to your Gmail account. Once you did that, on your phone, go to settings, accounts and sync, tap on your Gmail account, make sure that the Sync Calendar, Sync contacts, Sync Gmail are all checked. From there your Gmail will automatically sync to your phone.
Thank you for your continued interest in Samsung products. Have a great day.
Can you please tell me if the Samsung Fascinate has any options for a notification light, such as an app?

Hi pwski!
Thank you for your inquiry.
The Samsung Fascinate SCH-I500 does not have an LED indicator.
There is a proximity sensor/ambient light sensor on the upper left front of the phone.
Ambient Light Sensor - The ambient light sensor will report to the handset the amount of light that is near the sensor. The ambient light sensor is utilized for automatic backlight brightness.
Proximity Sensor - The proximity sensor allows the handset to perform certain functions based on objects detected near. This allows the handset to disable the touch screen while on a call to prevent unintentional activation of on screen options during a call.
Regarding an application for this function, we do not support the use of third party applications and services with any of our devices. For this reason, we do not have information compiled on possible resources.
We thank you for your patronage of Samsung products.
We are unable to speculate when/if this software revision might be available due to the fact that this might lead to inaccurate information and confusion.
Should this become available, it will be posted on our website in the Samsung Download Center or you will be informed by you Service Provider.
Please feel free to check back with us periodically for updates. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this presents.

Hi Jerilyn!
Thank you for your inquiry.
Regarding about your concern, files that was downloaded from this application on your computer are not guaranteed to be view on the Samsung Fascinate™ Android Smartphone (SCH-I500) due to file format compatibility.
Using your e-mail account on your computer, you can attach this file and then send it to the e-mail account setup on the SCH-I500.
You may search for the Android Market and look for compatible applications that may install on the SCH-I500 for this kind of application. However, we do not support the use of 3rd party applications and services with any of our devices. For this reason, we do not have information compiled on possible resources.
You may also contact your Service Provider for compatible services and application that you can download on your phone.
Again, we thank you for comments and appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter.
