Finding part of a phone number in Address Book I missed a phone call on my landline so I dialled 1471 to get the caller's number. To check if it was someone I knew, I typed the last six digits into Spotlight. Nothing came up. I opened Address Book and tried the same thing in the search window. Still nothing. It turns out the number was in Address Book but the... 12 Mar 2010 21:47 |
