Phone Amego allows you to configure how you want call status information to appear. The Speak

Caller Name feature can take advantage of the phonetic name fields in your Address Book to

pronounce contact names more accurately.

You can select a Ringtone for each telephone device if desired (some cell phones may not ring

when connected via Bluetooth). You can add your own Ringtones (or songs) in ~/Library/

Application Support/Phone Amego/Ringtones/. In Mac OS X Lion, the Library folder is

normally hidden. From the Finder, click on the Go menu while pressing Option to reveal the

Library folder inside your Home folder. You can specify a ringtone for a caller in your Address

Book by adding a phone number with the custom label "ringtone" and setting the value to the

name of the ringtone desired.

Phone Number Formatting

Phone Amego tries to use the phone number formats already defined in your Address Book. To

customize your Address Book formats, navigate to “Address Book -> Preferences -> Phone” and

select “Custom” in the Formats popup menu that appears. For each digit in the telephone

number received, Phone Amego replaces a "#" in the format string from right to left.

You can also enter phone number formats directly in Phone Amego using the ComboBox shown.

To add a new format, type your new format and press Enter. To edit an existing format, select it

in the drop-down list first. To cancel editing, open and close the drop-down list without selecting

an item. Selecting an item while pressing Control will move it to the top of the list. Press Restore

to reload the formats defined in your Address Book preferences.
