Add +1 To All Your Phone Numbers

I was annoyed that all my numbers in my iPhone was not having the +1 in front of them, so I looked for a Apple Script online.

Don’t forget to backup your Adress Book before (File > Export > Archive Adress Book).

Load the following script in the Scrip Editor and Run it.

tell application "Address Book"
   repeat with eachPerson in people
     repeat with eachNumber in phones of eachPerson
        set theNum to (get value of eachNumber)
           if (theNum does not start with "+" and theNum 
               does not start with "1") then
               set value of eachNumber to "+1" & theNum
           end if
        end repeat
     end repeat
 save addressbook
end tell
