Hi all,

my cell phone company has a strange way of letting me roam when abroad. in the local countries I have to put *101* in front of the local number and it has a ringback system. However, when I enter this into address book as a phone number, it keeps changing the * to a ( or ). I've even tried entering the number directly on the phone, which works, but when you sync it to address book, then it changes them back to parentheses again.

Anyone have an idea why this might be?

Cheers,

J.

Address book auto formats phone numbers. If you don't want it to do that, just turn it off in the Preferences > Phone tab.

Thanks, never occurred to me that there was an option for that.

Cheers.
