Can't share photos via e-mail from iPhoto

I am trying to share some photos via iPhoto by mail. When I try to enter an e-mail address in the To box, it won't accept it - as soon as I leave to box, the address I have written just dissappers. It also won't allow me to just select the address that shows up when I start typing.
I see that people have had this problems even last year and since I have just upgradded to version 9.2.2 I am disappointed that this bug still exists. I would have thought other people would have the same problem but I haven't seen any fixes or answers. Is there something in my settings that is wrong?
Hope someone can help!

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.

I have lost the ability in the share module to send photos via e-mail to selecred addresses. I have checked my settings and everything seems in order but still does not work, can I just reinstall elements 10 over my original elements 10 to repair

Hi Bob,
If you are using Windows Live Mail (WLM) 2011 then I think you may need the fix mentioned in this document to enable WLM in the Elements sharing preferences.

If you want,m you can update to Windows Live Mail 2012 from here

When you try to send an image using Photomail, how far do you get and what happens?

Edit: The fix mentioned in the first reference above seems to have dropped out of the system. It is probably best to go for the 2012 version which doesn't need the fix.

TS3276 from iphoto can not share photos via email

error message says "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."
had previously been able to share photos from iphoto via email. Did not change any settings and cant do so now.
Help

When I try to share photos via email, iPhoto says the server does not recognize the username/password combination.
Use your iCloud Mail account, when mailing from iPhoto and not email or similar. Sending using iPhoto as Mail client is more robust, if the send "From" in the outgoing mail is set to your iCloud account.

Send photos by e-mail from iPhoto.

I have problem to share by e-mail from iPhoto 11. I have fullly functional Mail on my macbook pro with 6th e-mail accounts. When i tryed to send some photos from iPhoto 11 i got message:
Your email did not go through because the server did not reply.
Check your Internet connection. If the connection is working properly, the email server may be down. Try sending your email again later.
Server and connection working properly and account is also OK (the same as in Mail from Mac OS X)
For me is now one resutls: I must select photos in IPhoto and export to the Desktop and after that send by attach to the Mail from MacOS-X. It works OK. But its horrible for me! Old version iPhoto 9 directly connect Email application and works OK. Help me.
Thanks very much Robert

You can send emails from iPhoto to Mail just like you could in the older versions
Iphoto menu -> Preferences -> General and select Mail at the 'EMail Photos Using...' dropdown

Elements 11 - Can't share photo via email using Adobe service

Cant share photo email using adobe service. Looks like it works but it doesnt ever send the email.

Hi,
Well done for spotting the "New Message" window hiding in the taskbar.
The start position/size of the window can sometimes get corrupted accidentally.
To make it show each time you could try this.
1) Right click on the second window in the taskbar and select Move
2) Now use the Up/Down arrows on the keyboard to try and make the window appear
3) Now try using the mouse to resize the window.
If that doesn't work then we may have to reset your preferences.
In theory, there isn't really a maximum number of photos you can send by e-mail but Service Provides sometimes impose a maximum size for an e-mail of around 10Mb - it can be as low as 2Mb.
If you want to send large files (like RAW files) or a large number of photos, then it may be better to look at something like Dropbox. If you just want friends to look at them then you could use something like Fickr.
If you need further help, please give us the version of elements that you are using.

Spent two hours on the phone today with BT. They escaleted the problem to a specialist support desk, which we then had to agree to paying a £30 charge if they were able to fix the problem as they say that it is a problem with mac mail. (Which it isn't because it works fine using a different broadband connection, and we have three laptops in the house all with same problem, using outlook as well as mail).
All three laptops have been working with out fault for the last four years and just before christmas they all stopped being able to send emails using hotmail. Obviously BT have changed something somewhere along the line.
The Specialist just changed our outgoing mail server to use BTs instead. (I have been using a different SMTP server anyway as a temporary fix since christmas) Whilst we are able to send emails, we are still unable to connect to hotmails SMTP server. Still had to pay the £30 though. As far as they are concerned that still counts as a fix. Another "solution" they gave me was to change the DNS address in system preferences- Not Ideal as everytime you connect your laptop to a new network you will have to reset them.An absolute joke.
Their direct number is 08000 321 118 if you need them to talk you through it. Best to have your bank card to hand.

Can't view photos saved on cd from iPhoto 06 in iPhoto 08

When I insert a cd with photos saved from iphoto 06, iphoto 08 opens but the disc wont load in the application and just keeps "spinning" in the internal drive. Have tried it with different cds with iphoto 06 pictures with same result. Any ideas? (The drive does work properly with other discs for other apps.)

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You did burn those disks with iPhoto's Share->Burn menu option, right? Are you able to view the disks on the desktop via the Finder? If not and you have access to another computer, try them there. It they can't be opened by another computer then the disks have been damaged somehow or the burning was corrupted.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. 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.

HT201077 How can I share photos take last year from my aperture library?

Photo stream seems to reject photos from older aperture libraries when I try to share them using either drag and drop or share button.

I tried to figure out what you were asking about, and realized that I did not see the synced collections either. But then I realized I was logged in to the wrong Adobe account - my wife is the actual subscription holder. not me. But I stay logged in as myself to participate in these forums.
So I logged out and logged back in as her, and still didn't see the collections. I closed the page, reopened it, closed it again, and I wish I could tell you why, but the collection I have synced to Mobile showed up.
So there is a perfectly good web site, you just need to get logged in properly I guess.
I clicked on the sharing options icon and this is what I get. I redacted the URL for obvious reasons:
You can allow the viewer all, or picked, unflagged, rejected. I don't see a way to make it completely read only. Just don't teach anyone how to flag or pick a photo.

PE 11 Preferences Freezing can't share photos via email

I just downloaded the trial version of PE 11. I love the organizer and the editor but can't email my pictures!! It says to go through preferences but EVERY time I try to click preferences it says it's loading but ALWAYS freezes. I have updated all of my Windows and Adobe Updates. I'd really like to be able to use this, it seems like it'd be just right if not for this one major issue!! Thanks in advance for any help.

Can you launch the Editor and try:
Edit >> Preferences >> Organize & Share
If the pres dialog opens choose Sharing from the left hand list and enter your web mail details after choosing Adobe Email Service from the client dropdown menu.

HT3880 I can't share photos via message on my i-phone 5 - I did a few times but now it freezes... help!

I am new to my I-phone 5 and was happy to be able to share a picutre on message to my husband when out with the kids. Now when I hit this option, it doesn't share on message and it freezes forcing me to shut down my message sending back to the main screen. This function was working just last week - why not now? What can I do? It is sharing well on email, facebook etc... just not on message. I am getting images from others this way but can't send mine out. Please help!

Try a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

How can I save photos received in mail in iPhoto?

If I receive photos in "Mail", if I save them they go to my folder "Pictures". How can I save them to iPhoto?

What is your iPhoto version? With the most recent MacOS X 10.9.4 and iPhoto 9.5.1 you can select the attached photos in Mail, ctrl-click them, and use the command "Export to iPhoto". This will add them to your iPhoto Library in a new event.

Sending photos by e-mail from IPhoto

Sometimes Iphoto will not "recognize" the address I specify in the <TO:>
From which program does Iphoto draw its database of addresses??

Greetings,
iPhoto reads email addresses from the Addressbook program. Make sure that the addressbook card for the person you are emailing to has a first and last name on it's card.
Cheers.
