Attempt to share photo from iPhoto gets error message

Attempt to share photo from iPhoto to email gets message: "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination

Do you have iPhoto setup as the mail client?  If so go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delte the email account, close iPhoto and reopen and add the account back in.
Or you can change the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane to Mail.  Many users found that it works when the iPhoto client wouldn't  If you want photo templates Mail has photo stationary templates that you can select.

  • When I 'share' photos from iPhoto to Facebook they don't appear on the Facebook newsfeed?

    When I 'share' photos from iPhoto to Facebook they don't appear on the Facebook newsfeed?
    The only way I can get them to appear on the Facebook newsfeed is to 'share' the album within Facebook. Does anyone know why iPhoto only puts the photos on my profile wall and not for people to view in the newsfeed?

    I'm having the same problem and I end up having to just post it the old fashioned way. Has anyone figured this out as they appear on my wall but not in my newsfeed???

  • What are the best ways to share photos from iPhoto?

    What are the best ways to share photos from iPhoto?

    If you use Adobe Photoshop, or even Adobe Photoshop Elements, stay as far away from iPhoto as possible.
    iPhoto does not play nice with Adobe software or with software from any other third party developer.
    iPhoto will hide your image files in a library paradigm where you have no access to them other than through iPhoto.

  • I cannot email a photo from iphoto. A message comes up that says "email server did not recognize username / password combination". How do I fix that? /

    I cannot email a photo from iphoto. A message comes up that says " email server did not recognize username / password combination ".  There does not seem to be a way from inside iphoto to fix that. Any suggestions ?

    Have you set Mail.app or iPhoto as Mail client in the iPhoto Preferences? Mail.app is working more reliable than iPhoto as mail client.

  • Downloaded photoshop CS6 to my new iMac. Opened photoshop but can't bring in a photo from iPhoto - get message that says photoshop does not recognize this type file. Suggestions?

    I donwloaded photoshop CS6 to my new iMac. Opened photoshop but cannot openn a photo from iPhoto library - I get a message that says cannot complete  our request becausse photoshop does not recognize this type file.
    Suggestions?

    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Need help - can't import some photos into iPhoto - getting error msg

    I have a lot of photos on my computer. Most of them are in my iPhoto, but I can't seem to load all of the photos in there and integrate them al. I am getting an error message. The jist of the message is that they are unreadable and that they cannot be imported. The photos are jpegs. I am kind of at a loss as to why these photos are not getting imported.
    Does it have anything to do with where the photos were taken from? What I mean is that when I have current photos on the camera, they will go directly to iPhoto. What about the ones that are copied to my hard drive from another computer? Those I can't seem to integrate into my library. An suggestions? Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Are these troublesome files in the iPhoto Library Folder? Are you putting files in there hoping to see them in iPhoto?
    iPhoto is a database, the images have to be imported (File -> Add to Library) before they can be seen. Also, as a precaution against duplication, iPhoto will not import pics from the iPhoto Library Folder, so move them out to the desktop and then import them.

  • I can't share photos from iPhoto to Facebook

    When I try to share a photo from my library on my laptop to facebook, it tells me to login to do so, but when I login with my facebook account email and password, it tells me there is an error...is there any way to fix this?

    I made sure that in "System Preferences" the "Photo" option is selected, as well as "Photo Sharing".
    And are the same option enabled in the "iPhoto > iCloud"  preferences?  You can only share from one iPhoto library at a time. If you switch between iPhoto libraries, the Photo Stream will be disabled in the new library.

  • Will my previously sync'd Flickr photos (from iPhoto) get removed from Flickr

    Hi,
    I am very nervous of using the new Photos App and losing all my previously sync'd Flickr Photos that I configured from iPhoto - some of them have thousands of views / comments and fav's that I would hate to lose.
    My photo library has been migrated to Photos App now, so I presume that as long as I don't fire up iPhoto again, I should be fine - as once the photos are sync'd to Flickr from iPhoto then as long as iPhoto doesn't try and remove them it should be fine and it can't do that if you don't start it up.
    My concern is what happens when I try and share a photo to Flickr from the new Photos App - is this going to reset all my photos that have been previously shared to Flickr (and hence lose the previously uploaded ones from iPhoto) or will it just share additional photos as a new individual photos? It seems whereas iPhoto ran a complex Sync type relationship with Flickr, the Photos App Sharing to Flickr is much more basic.
    Can anyone put my mind at rest because I would be mortified to end up losing my Flickr Photos?

  • 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.

  • Share photos from IPhoto with friends through cloud

    Anyone know the simplest way to share -- say a whole event -- with a friend, without filling up their email inbox.  In other words, how can you quickly identify photos in IPhoto and put them somewhere on the cloud and then send a link to that place to a friend?
    Thanks.

    I just want to choose some photos in my IPhoto (in this case, an Event) with a particular friend.
    The above-linked support articles explain how to do that. You create a shared stream from the images you want to share, and then invite those whom you wish to share it with via email.

  • When attempting to play songs on itunes, getting error message that file cannot be found and asked if i want to locate it.  not sure where it went. do have new computer and all files were transferred to new machine.

    I just tried to play some songs that i have in itunes and i get an error message that says file can't be located.  It appears to be on about half the songs of the thousands I have in there.  I do have a new computer and transferred the itunes library about a month ago.  I have successfully managed ipod on new computer.  I wonder if it is a licensing issue but this is just the second computer althought the third hard drive these songs have been on.  It is affecting songs loaded from CD's and purchased from itunes on the old computer alike. 

    Hi angela dfromtx,
    When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. You'll have to locate the file manually if it is still available. For more information refer to the following article:

  • I can't print from iPhoto. Error message says no themes. This is a recent problem.

    A recent error message says I can't print because I have no themes available. What is a theme and why do I need it. I just want to print. I now have to go to Preview to print my photos.

    The iPhoto themes are located in the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder. Verify that the iPhoto folder contains these items:
    If you do have these items in the iPhoto folder repair disk permissions with Disk Utility and try iPhoto again.
    If that fails then reapply the iPhoto 9.3 updater and try once again.  You are running 9.3, right?
