Phone wants to call when I click on any set of number

When I click on a string of numbers that is data related, instead of giving options to copy paste etc it just goes to asking if I want to call that number. Like, no Siri, I don’t want to call the Gross payroll amount.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Jcorr,


well I never mentioned Excel. You posted in the Numbers for macOS forum. So I was responding as if you meant that a number in a cell in a Number spreadsheet was asking you to call a phone number. Provide more context. You can take a screenshot, then put a rectangle of a significant portion of the phone number in question.


What application are you using wi this problem happens?


Maybe you have a system setting in a state that is causing this.
