Duplicate Mailings From iPhoto to Mail

In using iPhoto to mail photos, periodically Mail will send two or three copies of the mailing with the photos. To stop this today I had to take the account offline. Anyone have any ideas that can help me solve this? It doesn't happen every time. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Not sure. Haven't heard of that before. It might be more of a Mail problem. Do post the problem in the Mail forum also.

My regular google gmail works fine.

You should be able to do it with Dropbox.

Can't send more than 1 photo from iPhoto to Mail since upgraded to Leopard

Hi there,
I'm using an older version of iPhoto (4.0.3). We recently upgraded to Leopard, and ever since then, we haven't been able to use the Email icon in iPhoto to attach photos in Mail. It prepares to send all the photos, but only attaches one to a message, and then I get an error message saying, "Mail got an error: Can't get paragraph 8 of content of outgoing message id (a long number). Invalid index."
Does anybody have any idea as to what's going on here? It's very frustrating!!!
Thanks in advance for your help!

With the current software combination you are using, there IS actually this need -- your post (and others) here give evidence that it does not work otherwise. Your choices would seem to be -- in descending order of complexity -- a) revert to OS X 10.4, b) install a newer version of iPhoto, or c) take the extra step of exporting.
Alternatively, have you tried preparing a new message first, then just dragging the selected images directly from iPhoto to your message?
Um, you seem to be contradicting yourself, so I have no idea what you're talking about.
As I already said, I DON'T NEED to take the extra step of exporting the photos into a folder, as I AM selecting and dragging the images directly from iPhoto into Mail.

How can I attach a photo from iPhoto to mail as a file and not just put it on the email itself?

Souvent eu ce problème,
Je cree un dossier sur le bureau et glisse les photos à partir d'Iphoto dans ce dossier. Ce geste a pour effet de creer des copies dans le dossier.
Il ne reste plus qu'à selectionner ces photos pour les envoyer en pièces jointes.

Mailing photos from iphoto through mail

When I mail photos from iphoto through mail, it sends the picture at very low resolution regardless of the setting I choose (small, medium, large, actual). How can I send photos to others at viewing or even printing quality? Can I resize the pictures to my specifications as I used to be able to do on my PC? Through ACDSee I could resize to 50% which would be small enough to send quickly but still high enough quality for the recipients to view and even print. Thanks!

After iPhoto has created a new Mail message have a look at the bottom right hand corner of the Mail Message window - there's another control there for sizing the pics... try play with that one to find the size you require.
You can access your photos for sending in Mail too. In the New Mail Message Window there's an icon on the toolbar that will show you your iPhoto library.

No problems with iPhoto 11,UNTIL I downloaded Lion. Now,I cannot e-mail from iPhoto. The "do not recognize user/password"message.I like to -mail directly from iPhoto,not Mail. Anyone having this problem? Thanks for the assistance

My iPhoto e-mail has been working great;UNTIL I upgraded to Lion. Now,I cannot e-mail directly from iPhoto. I prefer to e-mail photos from iPhoto,not Mail. I sure appreciate anyone's help. Thanks

1 - unless you tell us more then anything would be a wild guess - what happens? what error messages do you get?
and why would you use iPhoto rather than Mail anyway - mail has more templates, has a sent mail box, uses you address book lists and lets you control the message format so PC users can receive photos - and works for everyone

Emailing from iPhoto using Mail & .Mac account in a foreign country

Hi all.
I love the OSX integration of being able to just select some photos in
iPhoto and click the email button. Opens up Mail program and sends away.
It makes it very easy and simple for someone like my girlfriend who would rather not think about where things are stored and how to attach them.
I even made her get a .Mac account to simply things even more!
Great.... but......
Off she goes with the iBook to Thailand to do her wholesale shopping.
With a new digital camera, iBook, .Mac account and iLife 6 all packed too.
(plus a quick lesson in using iWeb to get photos to a web page).
So now she takes some photos, loads them into iPhoto, edits, crops,
makes them look pretty. All in the comfort of her own room. Then off
to the Internet Cafe she goes, pays for a wireless hookup (the iBooks got airport). Goes to iPhoto, selects the photos, clicks email. Mail opens and a
new message with the photos already attached opens. After typing a message and sending the message......an error gets returned saying unable to send message do to SMTP outgoing server.
Having ran into this issue at home already, I followed instructions I found on the apple site regarding changing the mail setting account info SMTP server port number. Well that worked for home and after trying to get her to change it via the numerous numbers suggested from the Support pages on apple. Could not get her to be able to send an email (even when selecting .mac as the selected outgoing mail server).
Any suggestions on how to get this to work.
I just went into the new web .Mac mail and while you can attach files.
There is no way to use the iPhoto program to do this or to just be able to drag and drop from iPhoto to .Mac webmail.
Trying to show her the pathway to find her photos in the Pictures folder is not really an option.
thanks
Kerry

Hi Kerry
Some ISPs don't allow one to send email via another connection to prevent spammers using their servers for relaying junk.
I suggest that she use the webmail function of .Mac.
She could export the files to desktop, making sure that she adjusts the file size in the dialogue box so that the files are not too large, and then add to the email via the normal webmail interface.

Emailing pics from IPhoto with Mail

How can I get Iphoto mailed picture mails to appear in my 'Sent" box?

I'm with you on this. iPhoto has improved since iLife11 first came out, but this is still a weakness. When I think I have sent some pictures to someone, but they claim they didn't get them, I'd like to go to the Sent folder, confirm that they were sent, then resend if necessary.
If I sent the picture to myself, then forward to the intended addressee, when I try to clean up the mail getting rid of the forwarding info, I seem to lose any attached photos. I know that there was a .zip file attached to the original, but it doesn't seem to go along with the forwarded copy.

My previous programme to remove duplicate photos from iPhoto will not work in Photos. I feel I was tricked into buying a remove duplicate app from Apple which, after purchase, indicated it is only for iPhoto. Does anyone else have this problem. Does

Remove duplicate photos.

There is no Apple provided duplicate remover application. You must have bought a third-party application. Which application is it?
Photos is very new, and there are only a few apps, that have been updated to handle Photos Libraries are:
For example, these new apps claim to work with Photos:
Power photos: Fat Cat Software
Duplicate annihilator: Brattoo Propaganda Software - Products

Dragging AVI video clip from iPhoto to mail to send

I want to send a 2 minute video clip to some familly members, but mail keeps quitting when I hit send.

252.4MB is way too much for an email... the maximum capacity of an email should be around 10MB (20 at most). You should consider another way to send your file... (thumb drive?)
Another option is to use Quicktime Pro to re-encode the movie in a lighter file.

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

Problem emailing using Mail from iPhoto.

When I email photos from iPhoto using Mail and have text under the photos some of the recipients receive the photos with the text superimposed onto the photo making it illegible. Is there some way to avoid this? If I send a copy to me everything is fine. I am not using any of the "fancy' templates in iPhoto, just plain photos with text.

Since posting this I found another post about this problem. The response to that post should solve my problem.

TS1307 "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination". This message pops up when trying to mail photos from iPhoto. How do I fix it?

"The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination." This message pops up when trying to send photos from iPhoto via Mail. I have tried reseting passowrds in both gmail and me.com

Thanks for helping Christeneau. You helped me too...eventually. I say eventually because I was puzzled by your 'What does it say behind "email photo's using"'?
I realised the problem was your incorrect use of the apostrophe 's', as in 'photo's using'.
I just could not make any sense of this sentence at all, until I realised that you meant to write, "What does it say behind "email photos using". What you employed was the possesive use of the apostrophe - a mistake that seems to have become endemic in english speaking nations during the last 10 years or so, brought on by the lack of understanding basic english grammar. This has come about because of sloppy teaching methods the world over - it's not really your fault.
It's quite simple: The apostrophe 's' should be used as the following examples show:
James's apple, the car's horn, the world's atmosphere. The one exception is 'its shape,' where there is no apostrophe showing posession because that construction has been used as an abbreviation to 'it is', as in 'it's'.
Plurals (more then one) NEVER have an apostrophe! E.g. CDs, eggs, biscuits, vehicles, UNLESS to show possesion - a CD's label, the biscuit's taste, a vehicle's colour.
Thanks again for you help.

Drag and drop iPhoto to mail

I have two accounts set up on my iMac.
In one account if I drag and drop a photo from iPhoto into mail the image is pasted at the position in the mail exactly where the cursor is.
In the other account if I repeat this process the image appears at the end of the mail irrespective of where the cursor is. Whilst this is ok on most mails, it isn't ok if I am replying to another mail since the image is pasted at the end of the original mail.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? I have compared the settings on the two mail accounts and they appear identical.

In the Mail window Command (right) - click on the movie and select either Save Attachment or Save to Downloads Folder from the contextual menu.
Or move the cursor to the dividing line between the head and body of the email so these options appear and click on the attachment button.
