The More tab is used to configure how Phone Amego logs calls and other options. Many of the

controls have tool tips that appear when you hover over them to explain what the control does

in more detail.

You can log calls in iCal as a separate calendar including the time and caller ID. By synching

your calendar, you can keep a searchable record of your phone calls on your iPhone or iPad. Just

type a contacts name or number in the calendar search field to see a record of your

conversations.

You can also examine your call history in the Call Log window (when logging is enabled). The log

defaults to show the current day or last call log saved.

Click on any column title to sort by that column. You can select the desired Month and Day to

view previous calls, or view an entire Month at a time (by setting the day to All). To view a range

of days, press and hold Shift while clicking on the stepper buttons.

You can select a group of rows and copy (Cmd-C) as tabular data for pasting into a spreadsheet.

To cross search over more than a single month, notice the call logs are plain text (CSV) files

indexed by Spotlight. From the Call Log window, press Show in Finder. Then type your search

string in the search field at the upper right of the Finder window.

The card icon in each row allows you to open the corresponding Phone Amego Contact Card. A

card icon with a color background indicates there are previous notes for this caller.

You can use the checkbox column to indicate which calls need to be returned, or referenced for

billing purposes. You can share a master Call Log with other Phone Amego users by moving the

Call Log folder (~/Library/Logs/Phone Amego/) to be inside your Dropbox folder and then

creating a Finder alias for it at the original location.

To create a Finder alias for a folder inside your Dropbox,

press and hold Command and Option while you drag a copy

of the folder to the desired location.

Q: Is there a way to manually enter a call in the Call Log?

A: From the Call Log window, press Show in Finder. This will reveal a folder containing the call

logs with the file for the current date selected. The logs are simple CSV files. You can edit them

using a text editor, spreadsheet, or database program like Bento. Back at the call log window,

press the refresh button to load any changes.
