How can I attach a photo as a separate file to an email? (I have tried several of the tricks suggested here and they don't work for me)

I cannot work out how to attach a photo as an attachment to an email.  I have tried several times today using different methods (ie, changing the email to plain text, dragging the photo from Iphoto over the mail icon, emailing directly from Iphoto), but none of them work.  Everything seems to just produce an email with an embedded photo.  Any ideas?

Is this the first time your friend receives e-mail from a Mac user?
It is certainly the first time I have sent her emails from a Mac.  Not sure if she has ever received messages from another Mac user before.
You've sent her e-mails with pictures before, but only now you're having a problem
Yes, that's correct.
Mail.app offers two settings you can try to manipulate: Edit > Attachments > Always send Windows-friendly attachments, and, Always insert attachments at end of message
I had already tried that and it didn't work.
e-mail client your friend is using
I will find out on Monday when she goes back to work, but I wanted to look at solving the problem firstly from my end.
very likely you're dealing with a problem others have dealt with
Yes, very likely - I searched the site before I posted my own question, and there were quite a number of posts on the same issue.
Again, thanks everyone for your help.  Hopefully we can find a solution.  I am not making you all grope in the dark just to annoy you!!!  I'm just a new Mac user trying to work something out.  I am sorry if it seemed otherwise.

  • How can I attach a photo to an email,using Photoshop Elements9,without going through the Revel cloud

    How can I attach a photo to an email using Photoshop Elements 9, without going through the Adobe Revel cloud?

    I'm using Windows 7.  I have no email clients.
    You don't need an Email client nor Adobe Revel account to send email and photos as attachment.  All you need is an email account (could be free web-based account such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, AOL or whatever including from your own ISP.  And of course an Internet Connection.
    Now the most obvious requirement is out of the way so you need to go in to your Organizer and click on Share button and choose Photomail. Select the photo you want to send and follow the instructions that are on your screen.
    You also need to request an Adobe Verification Code to enable you to use Adobe's Mail Servers to send the photos for you.  To do this go to:
    Edit >> Preferences>> Sharing
    Look for something like this and fill out the red boxes where indicated (click on this image to see it clearly).
    Hope this gets you started.

    Il ne reste plus qu'à selectionner ces photos pour les envoyer en pièces jointes.

  • How can I access my old iphoto libary on my newer laptop? I have a new iphoto folder on my laptop so I don't want to lose my current photos. I just want to add more.

    How can I access my old iphoto libary on my newer laptop?
    I have a new iphoto folder on my laptop so I don't want to lose my current photos. I just want to add more.

    Do the following:
    rename the old library to something other that iPhoto Library.
    copy the library to the Pictures folder on your new laptop.
    launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the old library to open it and convert it to the newer version.
    Note:  if the older version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on it before opening with iPhoto on your new laptop.
    If you want to merge the two libraries into one library and keep the edited versions, keywords, titles, etc. you'll need to use the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager to do the merging.

  • How can i make a photo that is 10 x 6.6 to 10 x 8 without changing the image in Photoshop CS3?

    How can I make a photo that is 10 x 6.6 to 10 x 8 without changing the image in Photoshop CS3?

    I could be snarky and say change the image in a different version of Photoshop, but NO...
    The only way to make a photo that is one size into another size is to change the image.  You have a few choices about how to change it:
    One way is to simply expand the height from 6.6 to 8 inches using Image>Canvas Size, using the default setting of having the image centered and leaving the background either black or white, your preference.  This will add background color to the top and bottom of your image.  This won't change the image itself, but it will change its surroundings.
    Another way is to resize the image using Image>Image Size, entering the new dimensions after turning off the aspect ratio lock (resample on).  This will stretch the image vertically, however, so it's probably not a good option.
    Finally, you could resize the image using Image>Image Size, leaving the aspect ratio lock on and resample on, and increase the height from 6.6 to 8.  This will have the secondary effect of enlarging the width from 10" to a greater width.  Then you crop the resulting image back down to 10" width, which involves losing some edge areas of the image.

    You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
    (1) Page Info > Permissions tab
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
    (2) about:permissions
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
    Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
    Any luck?

    Buy and install Windows.
    Then you have IE
    Of course you can always do as I do when some idiot, usually with the government, tell me I need to IE. I say no. After saying no enough times they mail me a form.

  • How can I upload my photos from my iPad to a memory stick I have an adapter that takes memory cards to download to iPad that has a USB socket but can't find anywhere on iPad to instruct it to do this?

    How can I upload my photos to a memory stick from my iPad

    You can't do it directly from your iPad, the camera connection kit only copies photos/videos to the iPad's Photos app, it can't be used to copy them off.
    You can copy photos to a computer and from there to the memory stick : Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC.

  • How can I attach a photo to an existing email ? (iPhone 4s and I don't know what iPhoto is)

    Someone please help ! I'm a new owner of an iPhone 4s and I need to attach a photo to an existing email, but can't figure out how to do it. I have no idea what iPhoto is and need every step spelled out, in great detail, as I'm still very new at all the wonders of this great phone.
    Thanks in advance,

    There is (to my knowledge) no way to do this with an existing email.  You can create a new email message with a photo attachment from your 'Photos' app though.  Open your photos app, select which photo you want to email, and then click the arrow in the botom left hand corner, and choose 'Mail.

  • How can I attach multiple photos to an e-mail

    I would like to attach multiple photos which are already in the photos file on my ipad to e-mails I am sending from the ipad.  Is there a place in the e-mail where you can attach photos.  The only way I have found to do it is to send from inside the photos file but can only attach one per e-mail.  Any suggestions?

    You must email the photos from within the photos app.
    You can select up to 5 photos to email at a time. While you are in thumbnail view in the photos app - tap the arrow icon in the uper right corner. Then tap on up to 5 photos in order to select them. Tap the Share button in the upper left corner and then select - email
