you have to down load the driver for it. it's found in the samsung pc studio 3.2.1 if you're running xp other wis you're out of luck kind of. Win 7 will see it and after some kicking it you can get it to be seen, but there is something internal that takes over the phone and ddoesn't let the samsung software connect to the phone. in either situation does it allow you to explore your phone like external storage unit outside of the software.

Assign the key to another function. And then reassign it back to the main menu short cut. It worked for me.

First open your phone. Press upper right (-) key to get menu. Press joystick up 1 time to get Messaging. Press joystick center select button 1 time, then down 1 time for "Inbox" (or down 3 times for email). Press center select 1 time, joystick down 1time for Inbox, center select for first message. Press upper right (-) key for "More", then joystick down 2 times to get "Forward", press center select. Press upper left (-) key to "Continue", press joystick up 1 time to get "enter email addr." Press joystick center select button, and enter the email address you want to forward the message to. After you have typed in the email address, press upper left (-) key "OK" 2 times to "Send", if you normally enter a password, type it now, press upper left (-) key for "OK" and your message will be sent. Hope this helps. -Mike
