Use Skype with Address Book and/or Butler
Authored by: ebroder on Jul 20, '06 08:30:43AM

Could you just check to see if the phone number started with +1 and if not, prepend it? I don't have any of my Address Book entries in Skype's format, and I don't want to go and change all of them...

a somewhat easy way to make phone numbers skype friendly is to export your address book database in one big vcard, then edit the database in excel. i did a search/replace and it worked well. just make sure you save it back as only text (without and microsoft formatting). you should be able to re-import this text file back into address book without any problems, and it should give you the option of just appending the changes to the current users in your address book already.
