When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app. However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2. I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2? Any suggestions for getting the correct photo to show on iPad2?

Update: I was able to have the correct photo show in my email as received on my iPad2 by changing a setting on my IMac prior to sending the photo on the email.
On the iMac, I went into iPhoto > Preferences > Email photos using > Mail (in lieu of "iPhoto"). This seems to have corrected the issue. I'm not sure why. Now the correct photo shows up when received on my iPad2.

Mobile Me was my default email account, so if I did any emailing like trying to send a photo directly from iphoto it would send from the mobile me address. Is there a way to set a different default email account now that mobile me is gone?

We used Mobile Me for our default email. So if you answered an ad from a site or tried to send a photo directly from iphoto, it would use the mobile me account. Now that its gone, can I set a different address as my default?

WEll, MobileMe has been moved & still works in iCloud.
Did you setrup an iCloud account?
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

I can't email a photo directly from iPhoto. First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion

I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

Why can't I email photos direct from iPhoto?

Why can't I email photos directly from iPhoto, or even attach them to email?

I get a dotted frame outline with an exclamation
This is the source of all the problems. iPhoto can't mail the files because it cannot find them.
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming it's 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I updated iPhoto this morning. And now I can't email photos directly from iPhoto. Whats that all about?

I updated iPhoto this morning. And now I can't email photos directly from iPhoto. Whats that all about?

Which iPhoto version did you update to?
If it is iPhoto 9.6 open iPhoto's preferences, go to the Accounts pane and delete the email account.
Now quit iPhoto, relaunch, and add the account back.
You may have to restart the Mac for this to have effect.
If you are using iPhoto as Mail client, you may want to switch to Mail as the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane.
This has been much more reliable in the past and less trouble.

Can I FTP large photos directly from iphoto or Photoshop Elements?

I have been uploading large jpegs onto another server using ftp plug-in with Aperture. But it strips the photo info, captions etc from the file, which is crucial information for my clients. Does any one know why this is happening, If I could ftp directly from iphoto or Photoshop elements even, it would be easier for me as I don't find aperture useful for multiple batch changes in file names and captions.
Currently I have been editing the file names and comments in iphoto, exporting 'version name' (other wise it exports the original file name) to a folder on the desktop and then importing these files into aperture where I use a plug in AperturetoFTPpro. I do have the export version box checked and not the 'master' box - By now i've lost track of which it thinks the 'master' or 'version' is!
not sure what's causing the problem, iphoto or aperture.
When i look at the metadata in aperture, I can't see the captions, but if i open the same file in photoshop and do 'apple i' the info is there.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to FTP directly out of iPhoto that's built into iPhoto, but you can try asking in the iPhoto forum where if anyone knows how you'll be more likely to get a response. There is a third-party product called PhotoUpLink that the developer says works with iPhoto that you could try.
The same applies to your Aperture question; try asking in the Aperture forum, though if you're using the demo plugin that comes in the Aperture Plug-In SDK, that's really not intended to be "production quality" but rather just an example of plugin development, so it may well lack capabilities or otherwise have issues. You might take a look at PhotoUpLink or Uberload for Aperture,
Not using Photoshop Elements I can't say about that, but Adobe runs their own forums for that here where you could ask.
Regards.

I can't send to Flickr direct from IPhoto get error

Help with sending to Flickr from iphoto

As you've already been told MMe has been defunct since last June. This website by Roger Wilmut describes several alternative photo sharing sites that you can use to replace the MMe Galleries: Missing in iCloud page 4.
Another option is to obtain your own website hosting account and use iWeb's Photo page layout or Album layout to create your own personal website and photo galleries. Examples of the two are in these demo pages: Using an iWeb Album Page as an Alternative to MobileMe Galleries and Using an iWeb Photo Page as an Alternate to a MobileMe Gallery.
This may be of help to you in getting a hosting service: Life After MobileMe.

Unable to share from iphoto using Messages....

I have upgraded to Mavericks and have noticed that I can't share a photo directly from iphoto using Messages. Anyone else have this problem? I got an error message once that said something like "couldn't communicate with helper application". Usually when I try to share a photo I don't get an error message, nothing happens at all. Any help would be much appeciated.

I only started experiencing this problem (iPhoto Couldn't communicate with helper application) after upgrading to version 10.10 and haven't been able (yet) to find a solution or work-around to this issue. Anyone???

IPhoto 11 - when receiving photos sent from iPhoto 11- can't reply...

My friend sent me photos directly from her iPhoto 11. When I went to reply to her email with the photos, I hit reply, but I am unable to type anything in. When I went to click out of Mail, it froze and I had to force quit.
I called another friend who also uses iPhoto 11, and had her send photos from iPhoto 11, also, so I could see if it was just happening with one person. Turns out, the same thing happens.
I open the email with the photos that were sent to me directly from iPhoto 11, and, again, I am unable to reply, and then, my Mail program freezes and I have to force quit.
Is anyone else having this problem? Try sending yourself photos directly from iPhoto 11 and see what happens.
(FWIW, I have iPhoto '09 ). My friends don't do the forums so I figured I'd post and try to find out what's wrong with iPhoto 11 and if it's a known issue. (they are both using iMacs- Mountain Lion)
Thanks!

No, it is not my email program. This has been tested out on other computers, as well. I spoke to a lot of folks who have iPhoto 11 and they said they have been having issues with people who can't reply to their emails ONLY when they send photos using iPhoto.
These same people sent me photos as attachments, sans use of iPhoto and no problem. They also tested it by sending photos via iphoto to other friends as well, and, those people also can not reply to them, either, be it on a Mac or a PC, yet, when the photos are inluded as attachments or drag and dropped in, the emails are able to be replied to.
Thanks, though, but there's nothing wrong my my email program.
FWIW, they also sent themselves photos via iPhoto and had the same problem. It's iPhoto 11.

Mailing directly from iPhoto creates .txt attachments for each photo

When I am in iPhoto, and I mail several pictures directly from iPhoto using Apple Mail, the resulting message gets sent with a .txt attachment (presumably with the photo file name) in between each photo. So if there are 30 photos, there will also be an additional 30 text attachments.
This is extremely annoying and confusing for the recipients, is there anyway of stopping this? I did deselect the option to send the titles and comments, so I have no idea why it is inserting these extra text attachments.

I tried toggling that option and testing it, and it still showed the extra .txt attachments. I looked at the files, and they are blank 4k attachments. Now if I add comments between the pictures, this text shows up in these attachments.
I noticed that in iPhoto, if you email directly using the Email button there, and deselect comments and titles, the pictures are inserted into the message with a few blank lines of text in between. When the mail is sent these blank lines are converted into text attachments.
I did an experiment and sent an email by manually attaching pictures in Mail, and ensuring there was no spaces or text in between them, and it worked. No text attachments. The moment I inserted some text or even blank lines between the photos in the message, it sent these as additional text attachments.
I tried switching to RTF format messages instead of Plain Text (which I use by default), and it still did the same thing.
I guess it's just how Mail always wants to put the picture in the body of the message, rather than just attach it to the message without displaying it on the screen... Is there a way to turn this automatic display of attachments off when composing?

Photos imported from iPhoto to iMovie turn a bright red hue.

When I attempt to import photos directly from iPhoto into iMovie, both with and without the Ken Burns effect, the photos all wind up washed out and tinted red. I've looked for some sort of setting I could change to avoid this, but haven't been able to find it, and I've installed all the most recent updates. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Better still, does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks for your interest.
I had scanned in monstrous TIFF images -- these were the ones that would turn to red tint when I applied Ken Burns effect.
I created an action in Photoshop to flatten layers and save to JPEG, then ran an automated batch on all the TIFF images to create JPEGs.
I imported the JPEGs into the iPhoto library, then into my old iMovie. These new JPEGs don't turn red with the KB effect. I then emptied the iMovie trash to reduce the size of the movie, and then could no longer apply the KB effect to any of the clips in the timeline (only on clips not yet moved into the timeline). I tried restarting iMovie, but that did not help.
So I created a new movie from scratch and that seems to be working just fine. I feel like iMovie is such a waste of my time. I spent about 10 hours on my movie up to this point where I can be productive.
I notice some of the images have scratches I'd like to fix in Photoshop. What's the recommended way to do that? Can I keep effects or transitions and just re-apply them to an edited photo?

I am trying to move a "face" photo from IPhoto to the picture well in a contact in my "Contacts". Can't drag directly from iPhoto to picture well. How do I do it?

I am tring to move a "face" photo from IPhote to the picture well in a contact from my "Contacts list". I followed directions in Help but Cannot double click the picture well then drag a photo. It won't accept it directly from IPhoto. Once you double click on the picture well then click on the photo (in another application-IPhoto) it apparently negates the double click on the picture well. The only place it will take a picture from is the "recents" that you get when you double click on the picture well in contacts. How do I get the photo to the "recents" or to the picture well?

Hi cavu10horses,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has instructions for changing a contact's photo using a photo from iPhoto's Faces feature:
Contacts: Add or change contact pictures
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11580
Select a contact or your own card, and then double-click the picture well.
Select a picture:
Drag an image to the picture well.
Click Camera to take a picture.
If you have pictures in iPhoto, click the Faces button to use a face from iPhoto.
If the contact is linked (it’s in multiple accounts, but displayed only once in Contacts) and has multiple account pictures, click Linked.
Click Edit to edit the picture.
To zoom in and out of the picture, drag the slider. Drag the picture to change which part of it is visible.
To rotate the picture, hold down the Option key while you click and drag the picture.
To apply special effects, click the Effects Gallery button and choose an effect.
Click Done.
Cheers,
- Ari

I've not seen this message but would think that it might say that you can not send to a PO Box - exactly what is the error message?
