IPhoto: trouble with sending photos via gmail.

For some reasons, for about one or two months ago start having troubles with sending photos from iPhoto via gmail.
It used to work perfectly, but now refuses to send photos. Pop up message says that there are some trouble with accessing accounts.
Once I restart my computer it works well again.

Hello ilya,
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
Mail: Can't send messages, "Cannot send message using the server smtp.xxxxx.com" alert appears...

  • Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.

    Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.
    I have this problem that started a while ago and seems to be getting worse.
    Here are the different scenarios.
    -If I try to share a photo to email within iPhoto, it will insert the image file name in the mail message, but no image icon or opened image. In iPhoto Preferences under General I have chosen to use Email Photos using Mail.
    -If I choose to use iPhoto to send the photo, it will compose the message and the photo is viewable. If I send the message i can view the photo within the email I sent to myself. Nothing happens when I double click on the photo in the Mail message. Nothing happens when i control click on the photo in the mail message. Nothing happens when I try to drag the photo to the desktop from the mail message. When I try to save attachments from the email and choose a place to save it, the save button is grayed out and it cannot be saved. When I check the mail message it says there is an attachemnt but there is no file size listed.
    -If I use the stationary within Mail app I cannot drag a photo into the placeholder, I get a circle with a line through it symbol when I try. It happens if I try to drag a photo from the desktop or from the media browser within Mail app.
    -If I drag the photo to the desktop from iPhoto, I can double click it on the desktop and it will open in Preview.
    -If I then control click on the same photo on the desktop and scroll to share/email, the generic photo icon will be inserted in the mail message. If i double click the photo icon in the mail message  I get a message it can't be opened because it is empty.
    -If I drag that same image to the mail message body the same thing happens.
    -If I send that email to someone they cannot open the image file.
    What I can do:
    - I can drag that same image file on the desktop to my dropbox folder and  it will upload. From there I can go on my iPad and download the photo and send it through email just fine.
    -I can open the same image file on my desktop in Preview, I can copy and paste it into a mail message and the image will be viewable in the mail message by me and by the recipient.
    -I can drag that same image on the desktop to my safari browser window and it will be viewable in the page. i can then copy and paste that image into a mail message and it is viewable in the message.  I can then send that email message to myself and i can control click on the image and get all my options. It also shows as an attachment with the size of the image file in the mail message.
    I can send that message to someone and they can see the photo and open it fine.
    -If I send that same email to me I can see the photo within the mail.  If I then drag that photo to the desktop I cannot use it again to put in an email as the same problem happens again.
    I have tried all scenarios in my user account, another users account and in a guest account. The same happens in all. I am guessing because of this it is not a corrupt preference file, unless all of the preference files are corrupt. The guest user account I added a new email account so it was brand new and still had the problem.
    I am stumped, all and any help is appreciated.

    Another problem that may be related….
    I have Snapz Pro. I used to be able to save the snaps to my desktop or a folder. Now when I take a screenshot and try to save the file to my desktop or a folder on my desktop I get this message  "Files cannot be created in the selected location. You do not have permission to write to the selected location.   Please choose a different location."  I have found that i can only save the file to the clipboard.   I have repaired permissions many times and still I have this problem.

  • Droid Charge - 3rd one, same problem with sending photos via text (MMS)

    Sending photos via text messaging (stock messaging client) does not work consistently.
    In a 4G area, the texts go through fine with minimal errors (perhaps 1 out of 20 failures to send)
    In a 3G or less, the texts give me an error message of "Failed" or pending, whether or not the recipient gets it (usually the recipient does not get the message) - this is true of recipients with AT&T, Sprint and Verizon service with smartphones and Blackberries.
    If I do not delete the thread, I get the message "Too many unsent multimedia messages" and the phone will not initiate the send.  The phone will, however, continue to try to sending the photo, causing very rapid battery drain.
    The last phone was replaced because the phone was not closing out the message, according to the last technician to whom I spoke.
    Is there something else I can do to get the full functionality of the phone I paid for?  This is an extremely frustrating issue, and makes me regret switching to Verizon.

        Hi moonchef!
    Sending pictures is something I do on a daily basis, so I know how important this is! It is true that pictures have to be sent over the VZW network and not Wifi. I would like to ask you if you resent the same picture that failed? Or did you send the same picture again, but in a separate message? Please try sending it again separately and let me know the results. Thanks!

  • IPhoto won't send photos via 'share-email'

    iPhoto has stopped sending my pix through 'share' 'email' -- Worked fine, just quit. All other email messages coming and going fine via 'Mail.'
    Dialogue box appears:
    "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply."

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

  • The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.   From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

    The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
    From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
    Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Sending photos via iphoto

    I am unable to send photos via Iphoto.  I get a message to check outgoing mail settings.  I am not sure what the outgoing mail settings should be.
    outgoing mail servier :  smtpme.com, port is 587, should the box at the bottom be checked or unchecked?  I have tried it both ways and it still doesnt resolve
    the issue.

    I have it checked and it works for me.  Delete that account and then add it back anew.  See if that will do the job. The server address and port are the same that I have setup for my iCloud account.
    You can alway set Mail as the emali client of choice so you can get more features, i.e. copies of sent messages, more templates under Stationary,  etc.

  • Have issues emailing photoshop element 12 photos via gmail.

    Issues sending photoshop element 12 photos via gmail. I cannot zip the files (too large) and have tried to convert PSD to JPG

    There is a limit to the file attachment when sending through AdobeEmailService. You may try using Outlook or other such desktop email clients if working with larger attachments.
    Thanks

    Do you have the Facebook app from the App Store installed? You should be able to upload photos taken with your iPhone camera to Facebook using that app.

  • IPhone 4 IOS 7 - unable to send photos via text

    I have been unable to send photos via text since updating to IOS7.  All of my settings are up to date and this problem occurs on wifi, 3G and makes no difference if I send the photo via message first or from my camera.  I have read all the troubleshooting guides and nothing has provided a permanent solution.  Resetting the network seems to work for a limited time before the photos come up with the same "not delivered" icon again. 
    Does anyone know why the reset would work and then stop working if I haven't switched my phone off?
    Thanks

    You may have to backup and restore through iTunes. Have you contacted your carrier about this since this feature is carrier-provided?

  • Unable to send photo via iMessage

    Hi Guys,
    I am having some issues sending photos via iMessage between my fathers iPhone 5s and my iPhone 6.
    my fathers iPhone 5s can send me photos but when I try and send him a photo it fails with "not delivered", however sending normal text iMessage between the two phones works fine.
    and another weird thing I can send photos to other people's iPhone's ????
    so is the issue with my iPhone 6 or his iPhone 5s ?

    Hi jake85au,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue where you cannot send MMS from the Messages application to your father’s iPhone 5s only. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the suggested troubleshooting steps located in the attached article. 
    If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Best regards,
    Joe

  • Has anyone else had trouble with their photo app? everytime I try to edit a picture my phone restarts.

    has anyone else had trouble with their photo app? everytime I try to edit a picture my phone restarts.

    You have to go into your Gmail account settings.
    Then Security.
    Then turn ON 2-Step Verification
    Follow the instructions to link a cell phone to your google account. They will text you a secondary code and once you've entered that your 2-step verification will be set up.
    Then you should have the option on the bottom of the page to add a device. Call it apple tv and then it will generate a secondary code specifically for your Apple TV.
    On the Apple TV itself, ultimately I think you have to enter just the first part of your e-mail address (before the @gmail.com) as your Youtube login username.
    Then you should enter your gmail account password.
    Apple TV will tell you it is incorrect.
    Then, retry and enter the long secondary password that google generated for the apple tv.
    That should do it.

  • Since installing the last iPhoto update sharing a photo via e-mail opens a google e-mail format instead of an Apple Mail format.  How can I get the Apple Mail format to come up when I click on share?
