I would like to send an email to everyone in my address book. But how?

Is there an easy way to do this? You can't just email everyone, I have like 150 in my address book, can't send it to that many at once. There must be a way?

When you press the Compose button in the Mail.app toolbar, and a new mail window opens, there is an Address button. Click on that button and a list of all of your Address Book entries appears. Choose all or any of these and press the To button in the top left corner of the Addresses window. This will add any addresses you've selected to the To: field of a new email header.
Alternatively, you can select all or any entries in your Addresses and drag them to the Bcc: field. This is good to do when you don't want people to see all of the names and addresses of the people to whom you are sending a group mailing.
You might also want to create Groups in Address Book. These groups can be for family or friends or school or work or whatever. The groups will appear in the Addresses window in Mail.app, as well, so if you want to send an email to an entire Group, all you need to do is click Compose in Mail, then click the Addresses button, select the Group to which you want to send an email and click To: ...
Edit: You know, JDee, when it takes me a long time to put a reply together, I like to go back and check to see if it's still necessary to post it before I click the Post Message button. I don't know why I didn't do that here....

How do you send an email to everyone in your address book

hi guys.
do you know how i send an email to everyone in my address book

Open a new message, click on the Address Book button (the silhouette of a person), choose All Contacts on the left hand side of the Address Book, select the first name, Hold down cmd and at the same time press a. All persons will be highlighted. Now click on the "To" button and all the persons will appear in the To window of your message.

I would like to send an email with a link to an app I found in the app store. How do I do that?

I would like to send an email with a link to an app I found on the App Store. How can I do that?

Can you help me with this one. I cannot seem to add an active link to a web site to an email. In windows I have the option to "add a link" and it will show up as a hot link that can be clicked on to open the site.
Thanks

My computer has been infected with a Trojan Horse. It has completely taken over my Mac email account and was sending out malicious email to everyone in my address book. At the same time it infected my iPhone---I am no longer able to receive or send emai

My computer has been infected by a Trojan Horse. It has taken over my Mac email account and began sending out malicious emails to everyone in my address book. I cleared out my MAC address book and began using my AOL email account. It took a few days and then my AOL email account was infected and has now been send out malicious email to all my contacts for over a month. It has also infected my iPhone--I am no longer able to send or receive emails on my iPhone. Also, once the Trojan Horse began using my AOL email it completely blocked me from using my MAC account by sending never ending popups asking for my email password to access my MAC email account, but it never accepts my pass word. The TH has also slowed down everything on my computer. It's like I am working on an old PC with dial up connection instead of the high speed digital connection that I have. The little color wheel spins constantly as I wait for sometimes over a minute for a page to pull up. If it pulls up at all. I have tried to use the 2 disks that came with my computer to completely remove everything on my computer and then reinstall all the programs, but I am not allowed to sweep my computer clean. I thought maybe my disks that came with my computer were defective so I called Apple and they sent me 2 new disks. I am not able able to clear my computer with the 2 new disks either. I have done this before successfully so it's not something new to me. I do remember when I believe my computer became infected: I had googled an unusual sewing term, and I was opening what appeared to be legitimate sites, when all of a sudden a pop up appeared that said that my computer had been infected. I immediately shut my computer off, but it was too late. I downloaded a virus program for Mac, and it has never found a virus or problem at all. I think it is part of this Trojan Horse, but I am unable to delete it from my computer. It refuses to uninstall. The Mac Trojan Horse is real and it is terrible. If anyone has any suggestions for me I would be very appreciative,
Beth

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

You will have to look around your machine & figure out the name of the program.
try /application/utilities/activity monitor
I recommend that you get a littlesnitch. littlesnitch will track your Web traffic and tell you which applications are sending data from your computer. Be sure to run it awhile because it will trigger a number of alerts. In trail mode, it will run for three hours per boot for a about a month.

How do i send an email to all of my address book contacts :

How do i send an email to all of my address book contacts :

Select them all and drag them to the To line of a new message (or, better, the BCC line). But be aware that most e-mail servers put limits on the number of addresses a single message can be sent to and daily limits on how many different addresses you're allowed to send e-mails to, as spam control measures.

How do I stop my computer from sending emails to everyone in my address book

How do I stop my computer from sending emails to everyone in my address book? This is happening when I am not on my computer.

I've been using a local isp and have recently gotten my mac email up and running. I think you are correct about the limitation being from the local isp as I was able to right click and send to all 67 via the Bcc. Good info, thanks.
I promote the use of Bcc any chance I get. Seems so many out there just don't understand the forward/reply issue where names are scanned from nearly infinite lists of forwarded emails.

I have a recorded movie clip on my desk top that I would like to send by email...How do I do that

I have recorded a movie clip on a flip camera and downloaded it to iPhoto. I would like to send it by email to an acquaintance. Since iPhoto does not permit emailing of movie clips I saved the clip to my desktop and attempted to attach it to an email message. No good...?file too big? email would not load and send.

Most internet providers allow email attachments limited to about 20 MBs—a few less. In cases where the file size exceeds this limit, you basically have three options:
1) Re-compress the file to a smaller size. This usually involves reducing the display size along with a reduction in the data rate which often translates to degradation of quality. (I.e., Reducing the total data rate by half will reduce the file size by half.)
2) If both parties share an IM connection, the file can be sent directly from one party to the other.
3) Upload the main data file to a server and email a reference, QTL, or URL of its location to the receiving party who can then access/download the file. For instance, most ISPs allocate a certain amount of storage space to each user account. Many might be sufficient for your needs. If you have a MobileMe account, your movie can be shared/posted directly from iPhoto. There are also a number of sites, both free and commercial, that allow the uploading or sharing of such files. Some, like YouTube, are oriented towards viewing modified versions of you file while others allow downloading of the original file as uploaded. I believe all require a formal membership (free or paid) which is a sticking point for many people.
In short, there are many options available and you will probably need to research which might best serve your needs.

I would like to send out email to a mailing list I put together. How do I do this?

I would to send out a "special offer" to a small mailing list. I have created the list already. Obviously I want to send it as a BCC. How do I do this? Do I address it to myself first and in the following line BCC the Mailing List? I would appreciate some advice please. Thank you.

If you have defined the addressees as a group in your address book, you can just use that one group name. Otherwise you need to select them all from the address book list. A quick way to select all is to turn on the Contacts sidebar (F9), single left click one of them and then hold down the Control key and type A (Control-A). That should highlight all of them. Then click 'Add to Bcc".

TS3276 I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails to people in my address book. Hotmail advised me to change my password for that account, which I did. Why won't mail recognise the new password?

I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails from my address book. Hotmail advised me to delete all contacts and change the password for that account, which I did on my laptop running windows XP. The change was successful and I was able to send and receive emails with no problem. I then had to change the account password on my iPhone 4s, which I did and it too was successful but when I came to change the password on my iMac, running the latest version of Lion it would not recognise the new password. I have tried to remove the account details and re-install but every time I go to add new account my old details are in the box. This is very frustrating as I use my iMac for all my profects and I need to access my email. Please help.

hi guys,
I had already deleted all reference to the hotmail account in question from the keychain access app, I have also tried to delete and re-instal the account details from within mail. The icon in the side bar dissapears but when I go to Add Account, the old account details are in the new account box. I then input my new password but am told that the server does not recognise it. If I access hotmail via google on the iMac I can get into my account with no problems. I am thinking there must be some other form of security system within the mac software that is blocking the new password. This is driving me nuts. I have been trying to resolve this for the last two days. Thank you for your advise anyway.

Sending an email to a 250 person address book group.

I am trying to send an email with a picture attached to a group from my address book using Mac Os X mail. It will not send when I click the send button. There are 250 people in the address book group. Is there a limit to the size of group that OS X mail will send to?
when i remove the group and send to 2 individual contacts, it sends right away...help.

Not sure that there is one in today's world of spamming - frankly, I'm glad my ISP and/or web email hosting service et al have these in place.
This is what I do for any emails which need to be sent to more than about 10 - 15 people:
I prepare an email with attachments if necessary and have my address book open. I start inserting email addresses in the BCC field until I reach a certain number. I open a new message window, paste in the email, and work on the next 50 or so. I do this until I've enough emails to cover every recipient I want to send this to. I then send one or more emails, wait about 2 hours, send more, etc, etc - you get the idea.
Also, be advised: Comcast has told me that they watch the activity; although they do not have a maximum in my case, if they feel that you could be a spammer by the number of emails and recipients, they may not allow the usual port for you to send email through and you will get errors.

Mail hangs sending an email, with attachment, to some Address Book entries

I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard.
Mail hangs when I send an email (with an attachment) to some contacts in my Address Book. If there isn't an attachment then it works fine.
If I type in their full email address (i.e. not their name) into the To: field, it sends it just fine.
Any suggestions please?

I am seeing the same thing with SL but without an attachment. If I create a new email and type an email address in the To field then either hit tab or enter the programs freezes for around 8 seconds.
I wonder if it is trying to lookup/verify the address with an external server? Apple mail is attached to an Exchange 2007 server here as well as Gmail. My address book contains both local and Exchange contacts.
For me the problem seems to be intermittent.

Is it possible for me to share an itunes playlist with someone who is not on my local network and who has a different itunes account? I would like to send a playlist to my friend as a gift, but don't want to buy all the songs before I know it'll work.

This is what I found when searching for an answer online, but iTunes has changed so much since this posting that I don't know if the answer is still valid:
Give your playlist as a gift
You can gift a playlist to a friend, assuming everything is available on the iTunes Store.If you want to share the contents of you favorite playlist with a friend, you can send it as a gift (within the limits of what’s available on the iTunes Store, that is). If you select a playlist, then click the small arrow icon to the right of its name, a dialog box will display asking if you want to give this playlist or publish it on the iTunes Store. If you click Give Playlist, iTunes will look at your songs, then take you to the iTunes Store. This is, of course, limited to what’s available, and if your playlist contains any songs that are album-only sales, you won’t be able to give these; in fact, if your playlist contains any album-only songs, the process will stop, and you won’t be able to give anything from that playlist until you remove the album-only songs (and iTunes won’t tell you which ones they are, but these are generally songs that are longer than 10 minutes). But assuming you can give the playlist you’ve created, I’m sure your recipient will be very happy.

Hi czigrand,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Currently, you can gift dollar amounts or individual items (EG. songs) on the iTunes Store. See this article for more information:
In the iTunes Store, you can gift a dollar amount or specific music, movies, TV shows, or apps from your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Mac, or PC. Follow these steps to send a gift from the iTunes Store.

I would like to make a directory using groups from my address book.

How do you merge information from contacts in the address book with a document?

With the current version of iOS on an iPhone there is no way to have a full screen contact picture. You can make a suggestion to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/

I would like to send an email to everyone in my address book. But how?
