Now you can get the convenience of automatic telephone speed dialing -- while working in virtually any Macintosh application. Desktop Dialer makes dialing fast, accurate, and easy.

Simply highlight a phone number in your Macintosh application and press a hot key. The number automatically dials through the phone line of your choice. Desktop Dialer will dial from virtually any Macintosh application. Plus, Desktop Dialer includes a free desk accessory, DialerDA, so you can create a personal phone directory of your most frequently called numbers.

DialerDA will instantly dial any number with just a click of the mouse. Desktop Dialer recognizes the way you work. It operates with standard one-line and two-line telephones, automatically dialing through the line you select. All you do is pick up the handset (or turn on the speakerphone), and Desktop Dialer will dial through the chosen line. Desktop Dialer is even smart enough to know when to wait for an open line before dialing.

What's New:
SCIAC has been replaced by new Dialer Extension, which now automatically installs into your System's Extension folder when you install the Desktop Dialer software.
The Dialer Extension runs in the background every time you start your Macintosh, without affecting overall system performance.
The Dialer Extension receives AppleEvents for the Dialer Control Panel to enable automatic dialing from programs that support AppleEvent dialing, such as FileMaker Pro and Act!. This new extension also now allows the Dialer to receive AppleScript instructions to dial and redial.

Requirements:
ADB port.
analog telephone.
