Emailing Photos in Iphoto '11 (emails prepopulating)

how do I delete an email that is incorrect in the iphoto email application? I sent a picture to the wrong email by accident and now that email address keeps popping up when i try and type in the correct email because the two emails are very similar. How do I delete it? I check my address book application and i only have the correct email listed.

What type of computer do the people having problems have?
One guy has a Mac -- if that the only person who has had a problem? Has he had the problem multiple times or only once? What e-mail client does he use?
on a given e-mail have you ever had some able to open the photo and others not?
To upgrade to 9.2.3 if you have an older Mac and got software restore disks with it use software update - it you have a newer Mac and get your software from the App store log into to the App store using the Apple ID you registered the computer with and look under purchased apps for updates - download and install from there
and again
IMHO the best solution is to quity using iPhoto to email photos and use Apple mail - set it as teh iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences

Cannot email photos from iPhoto after upgrade to 10.8

After upgrading to 10.8, I have not been able to successfully eamil photos from iPhoto. I can select the photos, click the email icon, and have Mail open with the photos attached (as expected). But the send button is grayed out, and the newly created message window cannot be closed. To get rid of the unsendable email, I have to quit or force shut down Mail, then reopen Mail and manually delete the email from Drafts.
Has anyone else run into this issue?

As Larry suggested go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and make sure your email account information is correct. If you joined iCloud that is a must.

Problem emailing photos from iPhoto after installing OS 10.5.1

Since installing Leopard I have had problems emailing photos from iPhoto. I can send from my laptop to another Mac without problem BUT when I try to email pix from iPhoto to a PC user or to post on my Google Group board it only sends the 'title' I gave it in iPhoto or the 'PC134567.JPG' the camera assigns it. I have tried exporting and attaching to emails but that doesnt work either .. at least not all the time. AND when I do send them from iPhoto to my office PC they arrive NOT as an attachment but are embedded in the email message .. seriously what the heck is going on and why is this not working the way it used to pre-OS 10.5.1? What changed? How can I make this work the way it used to?
Thanks for reading and hopefully solving my problem

Thank you again .. I got home and immediately tried the fix you suggested .. sent a 'test' email and it worked perfectly.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
Any ideas ?

This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

IPhoto states server did not reply so I cannot email photos from iPhoto

I cannot email photos from iPhoto. I checked the outgoing mail server and port and they are correct. When I try to email photos the message i'm getting is the server did not reply check your internet connection and try later.. but my internet connection is fine. Any suggestions? I have Yosemite 10.10.3 software installed.

Do you have two-step verification enabled and are trying to mail from your iCloud account?
Then check this solution:
If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.
See the post below:
Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
https://appleid.apple.com
Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
Click Password and Security in the left column
Click Generate an app-specific password
Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
And...voila' (I hope)
Re: I am having trouble e-mailing from iPhoto the message I get is E-mail server didn't recognise your username/password combination

Cannot email photos from iPhoto on new iMac mountain lion

I have a pop account for my mail. When I got the new computer with iCloud, I had to have my pop mail forwarded to my iCloud account. That all works fine. But I cannot select a few photos in iphoto and click on 'send' for either the pop or the icloud accounts. I get a message that I am not connected to the internet (which I am) and to try again later. I have spoken with tech support at Roadrunner, my pop account, and we have checked that all settings are correct. He thinks the problem must be with iCloud. Any ideas?

If you are using iPhoto try going into the preferences and the click accounts to make sure you email account is setup correctly.

How do I save an emailed photo to iPhoto

When I select the option to "Add to iPhoto" in Mail, nothing happens. Am I missing something?

FYI - I sent this message to jane5047:
I think I now understand the problem you are having. I did a test photo email and sure enough, when I selected the Add to iPhoto option under the Save that appears in the top of the Mail Message (the one beside Quick Look for an attachment), iPhoto did not open and the photo did not "Add to iPhoto".
The way that I got it to "Add to iPhoto" was to first left-click Quick Look. At the top of the Quick Look of the photo there is a button that says Open with Preview. Instead of left-clicking on this, I right-clicked on it and a menu appeared with the "Add to iPhoto" option here. I selected it from here, iPhoto opened and the photo added fine.
Not sure why the "Add to iPhoto" does not work from the Save menu in the email message in Mail but it does work from the Quick Look menu. At any rate, this is yet another option for saving emailed photos to iPhoto.

I select photo from iPhoto,go to share:email, photo uploaded to email, type in address, click send, pop up window appears with: email did not go thru because server did not reply - now what, how do I fix?

I select my photos from iPhoto, go to toolbar, click share and email, photo is uploaded onto email screen and I add photo info and type in my
email address, click send at the bottom of page and it after a minute or two, a pop up appears with the message: your email did not go through
because your server did not reply. Have sent the same photo to my email address with no problem just to doublecheck. Why will it not
send out to other email addresses? Thank you.

Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account that's there. Now add it back and try again.
A more reliable method is to set Mail as the email Client for iPhoto in iPhoto's General preference pane. The Mail client is more reliable, gives you better access to your Contacts, gives you a sent copy and has photo themes similar to iPhoto's in its stationary section.

Why doesn't the "sent" folder show shared emails of photos through iphoto? on iphoto?

Every time that I share photos from iphoto to friends/family through the share button//email option, I end up with no record of it in my email. Why not? Where would I see a record of what I have sent out to friends and family?

When you send from iPhoto you're using iPhoto as an Email client. It's a very basic one of those and has no sent box. Neither does it sync with your other Mail applications, so they have no way of knowing anything was sent. That's why.
Options: bcc yourself when you send from iPhoto. (There's an option to do that automatically in the Preferences) or use a different app. Mail, for instance, has a Sent box and many, many more templates than iPhoto. (Check out the Stationery feature)

When I paste a photo from iPhoto into an email, it pastes a URL that is invalid instead of the picture. Is there a setting I can change to fix this?

It started doing this after my husband had to partition the hard drive to support Windows files. I had no trouble previously. I'm not talking about the Share feature, just simply selecting a photo in iPhoto, clicking "command" then "c" to copy and clicking "command" then "v" in the body of an email to paste the photo. Instead of the photo appearing I now get a URL to the local link on my hard drive, which of course the recipient of the email can't access. Help...

Use the supported methods of getting the Photo into the mail message, via the Share menu or the Media Browser.

Can't save emailed photos to iPhoto

The computer is an iBook G3, 900 MHz, 40 GB hard drive running OS X v.10.4.11 with Mail 2 and iPhoto 2. This is a computer which I am trying to set up for a friend.
I recently posted a similar question in the iPhoto forum thinking the problem might be with version of iPhoto that originally shipped with the iBook, but to date have received no replies. I am now wondering if it's a Mail problem rather than an iPhoto problem.
If the computer receives an emailed photo, I get the "Save" button and if I click on it, I also get the "Add to iPhoto" option. However, if I select the "Add to iPhoto" option, nothing happens. The photo is not added to the iPhoto library.
There is also an external 120 GB FireWire external drive associated with this computer. My niece did the original installation on the boot drive, which I believe was just an erase and install from a retail Tiger disc. I had to restore the iLife applications from the Jaguar system disc. I then came across this KB article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2475
Thinking that was the problem, I took the external disk and did a fresh installation starting from the Jaguar system discs and then upgrading to Tiger and updating all the software. The external drive now has a full installation on it including OS 9.
Same thing--I cannot simply save a photo to iPhoto. I also noticed that if I go to Mail>Preferences>Fonts and Colors and set preferences for larger fonts, this also does not work. However, I am able to put the magnifier in the Mail tool bar and this does work to enlarge text. This is true for both the internal and external hard drive.
My friend is new to Macs and new to computers, so I would like to make Mail and iPhoto as simple as possible for him to use.
We're using a GMail IMAP account if that has any bearing.
Thanks in advance!

I don't believe so--it's a fresh installation of the OS on both hard drives. I downloaded iStatPro and Maintidget on both drives and SMART Reporter and Smart Utility on the built in drive as well, but I wouldn't expect any of these to have anything to do with how mail works.
It's possible I somehow made some sort of an error when I set up Mail-- I followed the GMail instructions. Not sure where to look for something like this.
To be more specific about what I do, I click on the gray triangle to the right of "Save", and I get a drop down menu with the photos and the option of "Save to iPhoto" at the bottom of the list. I go down and click on the "Save to iPhoto" and nothing happens.
I know the iBook G3 is doing this because I was trying to show my friend how to add emailed photos to his iPhoto library and it just doesn't work.
I also have a different iBook G4 running Tiger, and with both iPhoto 6 and iPhoto 8, I can add emailed photos to iPhoto in this way.
I'm wondering if I need to find my friend a newer version of iPhoto--maybe iPhoto 5. I'm wondering if iPhoto 2 is the problem--maybe this feature doesn't work on it. That's why I tried my question on the iPhoto forum first, but so far no response, and also no response to some other questions about iPhoto 2.
Yes, I did repair permissions on both drives until there was nothing left to repair.
Thanks for the response--I am very puzzled by this.

Why when I email photos from iPhoto do they not show in my sent items in my mail ?

Why when I email photos from iPhoto using the share option does the email not show up in my sent items box in Mail. The emails are arriving ok but I do not have a record of the email being sent. Bit confused. I am new to my iMac .

If you are using the iPhoto email client there is no sent mail box
My suggestion is to set Mail as your email client and then you have everythin in Mail and have a sent mail box

Uploading photos from iphoto to email?

How do I atttach a photo from iPhoto to an email?? I seem to be having a hard time finding my files. Thanks tons.

What ISP(Internet Service Provider) are you using for e-mail?On my AOL e-mail window,there's a small camera icon in the middle bar,if I click on that it has a drop down about insert picture,insert background picture,insert hyperlink,and whatever else.Look for that.If you have something similar,try it.I would suggest doing it without any message first to see what shows up.Delete any attempts you don't care for.I found out if I clicked on the Background one,you couldn't read the message.Mine then shows a mini version of Finder window,navigate to the location of the photo you want.The suggestion of dragging photos to desktop first from open iPhoto window is excellent,the picture icons in my finder are far too small to see.The e-mail Application you use should also give you the option to resize for e-mail.Sends faster.

How can I email photos from iphoto '11?

I am having trouble emailing photos from iphoto '11. When I put the recipients address in, it disappears when I click "send" and I get some message about "key chain" and iphoto wants to use my confidential information???? What I ended up doing is dragging and dropping the photo into the email, but I don't want to have to do that all the time. I just got this MacBook Pro and iphoto program so am experiencing a learning curve. I must be doing something wrong. Is it safe to "always allow" this "key chain" info?
Thanks, you wonderful community.
Sheila
Update! I just tried this again by "allowing" for this one photo. I'm not sure what I'm allowing, but the photo was sent this time. Please advise.
Thanks,
Sheila

Sharing you are allowing the email to be sent.
Your SMTP has a password and it is confidential, if you do not agree it does not have access to that password.

How can I attach a photo from iPhoto to mail as a file and not just put it on the email itself?

How can I attach a photo from iPhoto to mail as a file and not just put it on the email itself?

Souvent eu ce problème,
Je cree un dossier sur le bureau et glisse les photos à partir d'Iphoto dans ce dossier. Ce geste a pour effet de creer des copies dans le dossier.
Il ne reste plus qu'à selectionner ces photos pour les envoyer en pièces jointes.
