Recently I went from PC to Mac, and while my contacts were all fine in my phone and I had them sync'd with the Address book, I recently went through Address book and cleaned it up a bit. Got rid of old contacts, updated some etc.

So the next time I sync'd I let address book override the iphone and completely copy over all the contacts.

Wellllllll now for some reason every single phone number in my iphone is formatted with quotes around it, ex "9085551212", in address book they are all formated correctly (908) 555-1212 etc

They work fine and the texts work fine, but I hate looking at it especially when I open up a contact to read a number to someone or type it somewhere they are all jumbled close together. I have great isight but sometimes get slightly dislexic when I read things fast and with the numbers close together its a pain.

Anyway, why is this doing this?

I have entourage as well I can sync it with that, but when I moved the contacts over from address book to entourage it also adds the "" and I dont want to go through 400+ contacts taking them out.
