Do reverse number lookup and age calcs in Address Book
Authored by: ahbe on Jan 21, '04 10:42:14AM

Ok, I copied and pasted the scripts, and saved them as applications under ~/Library/Scripts/Address Book Scripts/ and now they show up under the script menu in Address Book. However, when I try and run them nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? Thanx for the help.

maybe I am just being dense but I have this problem too. Additionally, if I put these where the author recommends they do not appear in the scripts menu.

you are putting the scripts in the wrong location. They need to go in ~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/. In this location, they will not show up in your scripts menu, but rather will provide information when you click on the "phone" or "birthday" fields, respectively.

Whoohoo! Thanx for the help. A simple right click and now it works just fine. I noticed there are lots of new right click stuff I didn't know about in address book. One that will really save me a bunch of time is right clicking on the address you can automatically get a map. Very nice...
