Tell a Friend emails are blank

Windows Outlook users receive what looks like a blank email when sending them an invitation to view one of my MobileMe Gallery folders. The link is actually there but barely visible (white letters on light gray background). Mac users receiving the same invitation get the full picture and link. I have verified this with my work computer which is running Outlook 2007 on Windows XP.

If you don't like the new ways that iPhoto handles emailing then you can access the old way with a small change in how you work:
1. Drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Mail icon in the Dock.
or
2. Use the Photo browser in Mail - or any Media browser in the entire OS

You can then resize the image in the iPhoto Window

  • A3 "tell a friend" email incorrectly states the password is PASSWORD

    Hi All
    I recently did a playgroup shoot and created individual password protected galleries for each child. However when I click on "tell a friend" the email shows the correct username but states the password is PASSWORD. I can login to the galleries using the username and password set in A3 but would like to use the "tell a friend" email to send to the clients.
    I know this was working correctly a couple of days ago, but checking previous galleries - same problem.
    Anyone have any idea's ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Tony
    Yes I created the mobileme galleries in A3, set a username and password for the galleries. Then when I select the "tell a friend" button it creates a mail message with a thumbnail of an image and user login details.
    The username in the email is correct but the password is PASSWORD instead of the actual password that I have assigned to the mobileme gallery.

  • My yahoo emails are blank in firefox and not in other browsers. i want to stay with firefox!

    my yahoo emails are blank. i can't forward nor write e-mails. they function well in other browsers (like google) but i prefer using firefox. i've contacted yahoo but they can't figure it out.

    Hello and thks for your answer. Here is a link to show you the problem: http://wp.me/p3CFjO-1Qh
    I imported the picture using mozilla Firefox. That pic doesnn't show on Safari.
    If the same pic I import through Chrome or Safari, there won't be any problem. I wish I could understand what the reason is and what is the solution, as I'd like to keep using Mozilla.
    Thanks for your time and I hope you have an explanation/solution for me.

  • Tell a Friend emails sent using iPhoto--Subject Line

    I published two separate albums to my gallery using iPhoto (each with different names and password protected with different user names and passwords and hidden on my gallery page.)  I sent a tell a friend e-mail for each album to two different distribution lists (one to my side of the family, the other to my husband's side of the family.)  I also sent each e-mail to both me and my son as part of each distribution list.  My son and I each received the emails in Apple mail--on my iMac and his MacBook Pro.  I used the SAME SUBJECT in the Subject line on both "tell a friend" emails for the two different albums, and all information in each email was correct when I sent the emails:  Each had different album numbers in the link to the gallery page and the correct corresponding assigned username and password.
    We received both emails which appeared fine when viewed.  But once one album was accessed on the gallery page using one of the links, the text in the other email changed to the text in the other e-mail, including the username and password. 
    I tested this by resending the tell a friend emails using different subject lines and did not have the problem.  Can anyone explain this?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    It is very slow and I can not find the way to customize the standard mail template.
    There is no way to customize that template. If it does not suit you needs send a regular email with the URL to the gallery in it.
    As far a slowness is concerned need more info on your setup. How much free space on the boot drive? How much memory? How many pictures in the library?
    from the other user the template is somehow corrupted
    Delete the Delete iPhoto preference file , com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in the User/Library/Preferences folder for that user, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Do the templates work if you try the Tell a Friend from the gallery online?

  • Emails are blank

    I just sent my first email using iPhoto '11 via the "tell a friend" button to share my MobileMe gallery. I've never had a problem prior to this version. 2 people have emailed me back stating that the emails were blank. In their reply, you could see below that indeed the email was blank. In both cases I know they were from Windows machines.
    I'm getting more and more frustrated with the changes in iPhoto.

  • "Tell a friend" email for web galleries- black on black for PC users

    Whenever I send out an email to friends with info for a web gallery, everyone who uses a PC (most everyone I know) gets the email and the text is black on a black background and they can't read it. I have to add text to the email with the username and password. When I cc myself on the email and get it on my Mac, it's white text on black background.
    What's going on here? It's been this way for 4 web galleries so far.

    Dave:
    Try using the Tell a Friend option in iPhoto's toolbar instead of the option of the online gallery. It will look like this except I've changed the font and color of the lower URL line which you can do with this method.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • All text in all email are blank, can't view attachments.

    After last osx update 10.5.6 I noticed a problem with my email. I have 2 email accounts in mail 3.5 The 1st works fine, the 2nd account lost all text in all email in in-box. Also all attachments are blank. I've tried forwarding the email to another account and also printing email but all the text looks as if it has been deleted. I've tried the font color and encoding but no luck. What would cause 20 emails to delete all the message text and blank out the attachments in only one email account?

    update - I did a rebuild mailbox and all email in that problem account diapered. I can only guess that the email got corrupted and the rebuild purge the problem records. They are not in the delete folder either. What would cause one email box to become corrupt?

  • My emails are Blank!  Empty content since 10.18am this morning...

    Just want to second this - I woke up this morning to find some of my emails displaying blank/empty content...
    It turns out that the blank emails are everything incoming since a certain time (10.18am). This was half way through my mail session - all before are fine. All after are not.
    I can see everything in the header (Subject, to, from etc) but then there's nothing in the body.
    Not in the main viewer window. Not in it's own viewer window. Not even when I locate the message on the hard drive and check it using quick look.
    On the web, where I can also view the email (Network Solutions) everything is fine.
    Any ideas?

    I did it and it didn't work.
    Should I restore the index file that I copied to my desktop or the Mail folder itself - it didn't seem to do any harm...it just didn't fix this stinking problem.
    I just sent another test message. It still comes in fine on account #2, but account #1 still has the problem of the message being blank - incidentally, all message from this Forum are still blank but I can read it if I View/Message/Raw Source.
    I'm off to bed now. Hopefully, you have another trick up your sleeve. I don't understand what is going on.
    One more thing to note. I just now tried Entourage (which I stopped using since I wanted to be a tru Mac user). The messages show up with no send or subject. When I open them, it's like viewing it in the Raw Source from above.

  • HTML emails are blank in OSX Mail - but they show up fine in Entourage!

    I send emails to a subscriber list through a third-party system.
    The problem is what OSX Mail does with my HTML emails! OSX Mail users get emails that appear to be totally blank. On further inspection, though, the emails are not blank at all—all the information is there if you go to View>Message>Previous Alternative. In "Raw Text", the entire message shows up, including the plain text alternative which was sent along with the HTML, and which was SUPPOSED to show up if the HTML did not.
    Notably, I've tested these same messages using Entourage to receive them on my Mac, and the messages show up exactly as they should. Is Apple aware of this problem????

    Since in general OS X Mail receives html just, there must be something about the format used by your 3rd party sender which it does not like. To make Apple aware of the problem, use the feedback channel and send them the raw source which does not display.

  • "Tell a Friend" email from MobileMe album - no images or formatting

    When I use "tell a friend" from a MobileMe album, it usually calls up "mail" with fancy body text with images of the key album photo with links and a nice layout.
    Now, when I use it, it just comes up with plain text as the email message. I don't know why or how I can change it back to the way it used to be.
    I've tried rebuilding the iPhoto library using the cmd+option launch and checking the last three boxes. Anything else I have missed out? I'm not using any email encryption software as well. Just Apple "mail".
    Thanks,
    Howie

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Is your Mail preferences set for RTF formatting or just plain text? That might be the reason. Set it to RTF if it's not that already. Other than that try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, reboot and try again.

  • IPhoto '09 MobileMe gallery "tell a friend" email not displaying password

    It used to be when I clicked on the iPhoto MobileMe Gallery "Tell a Friend" button an email would open and have the username and password.
    Now, it shows the username, but the password isn't displaying. Instead it reads PASSWORD.
    What happened to make it do this?
    How is a friend supposed to know the password if it doesn't display.

    Could be a damaged database file in the library. Backup and launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed to rebuild the library. Select the last three options.

    Launch iPhoto and try again.

  • Bug: 404 error for item link in 'Tell a Friend' email

    When using {tag_tellafriend} in email campaigns, the email that is sent from BC to the 'friend' is dysfunctional - the link rendered by {tag_itemurl} is redirected by a 302 Found to /_System/SystemPages/Error404, which simulates a Page Not Found error (it doesn't actually return 404).
    Those links are in the format: http://www.example.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=View&KID=203100&VID=45681759

    Cool. Shouldn't {tag_tellafriend} be removed or disabled? Three years seems a long enough sunset period for a feature that hasn't worked since then.

  • TS3899 my emails are blank on my iphone 5s

    I get the preview but when I open the email it has no content...Update...a restart has solved the issue...rookie error..my bad

    I am sorry not to have come back to you earlier but life has been rushing by at far too great a speed just lately !!!
    Firstly I compared all the settings of my ipone with that of my wife and made them identical.  No luck - still the same problem
    Then, I tried creating a new email identical account without deleting the original - no good I was told there was already an acount with the same details
    Finally I plucked up courage and deleted the account and created a new one.  Hey presto, it worked and everything is back where it should be.
    I am not as computer literate as I would like to be (old enough to remember the first telex messages and thinking them incredibly modern) and much appreciate the help you have been too me.
    Thank you.

  • Tell a friend about a web page

    I need to set up a link that lets a vistor send a tell a friend email from any given page within the site. Not neccessarrily through a module. Normally I would use a pop-up form and cgi script. What can I use in BC? (Other than just a "mailto" link)

    As a note to be clear, that is currently the only way to add refer-a-friend, through a web form. The custom refer a friend form has been removed (existing forms will still work). Due to varius issues with its form process aspx as it lacked key elements the web form aspx as to prevent things like spam.
