E mail problems via i Photo

Hello. I'm very unteccy but hope someone can help me in a simple way :-) 
I have a Macbook Pro and used to be able to email photos from iphoto from my hotmail account to myself in hotmail (I don't have a printer near my Pro so have to print things upstairs via my husband's printer!). It all used to work fine, but has recently stopped working. First it brought up a white box with a ! and the wording was invisible so the error message was blank.
Then I re-entered the hotmail and a private work account info into the iphoto Preferences under 'accounts' to see if that made a difference, so I could try and send from 2 different accounts...now I just get the 'your email did not go through because of a problem with the server' message.
I have no idea if it's relevant but I had recently changed to a BT account for broadband and that caused issues in itself as I couldn't send any mails via my personal outgoing server and had to do it via btinternet.com because of compatibility issues between BT and the Macbook Pro (even though my iphone is still fine sending outgoing mails with my normal private server!).
Please does anyone have any suggestions to help me get i photo working again to send email photos via iphoto?
With thanks for any help anyone can offer...

Many have had problems emailing with iPhoto as the email client.  Deleting the email account in iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and adding it back has helped some.  However, most find that switching to Mail as the email client in iPhoto worked for them.  If you want a theme link iPhoto offers check out Mail's photo stationary.
Also using Mail will give you an Sent copy and give you better access to your Contacts and groups.

  • Sending mail problem via php mail()

    I have a PHP server  with Apache 2 and PHP 4 and 5 and MySQL
    I have a very very simple  mail script that only works with @gmail.com, hotmail.com etc
    But  say if I had an email address for my company "[email protected]" it  does not go through.
    Is this a PHP issue or a Server issue?
    How  can I fix this as my customer is being an Arse!
    mail("$mail1","Thank you for registering with $sitename",
    "You have registered this email address at $sitename \n
    Email: $mail1
    Password: $pass
    Date/Time: $date","FROM:$adminaddress");

    First, you need to talk to your host, and have them install PEAR::Mail, and have them put the Mail.php path into the php.ini include path directive.
    Here is a function I was using some time ago, before I switched to Zend Mail.
    You need to edit / add the BOLD parts
    <?php
    require_once("Mail.php");
    function sendEmail($to_mail, $to_name, $from_mail, $from_name, $subject, $body){
         $from = $from_name." <".$from.">";
         $to = $to_name." <".$to.">";
         $recipients = $to_mail;
         $headers["From"] = $from;
         $headers["To"] = $to;
         $headers["Subject"] = $subject;
         $headers["Reply-To"] = $from_mail;
         $headers["Content-Type"] = "text/plain; charset=UTF-8";
         $headers["MIME-Version"] = "1.0";
         $headers["Return-path"] = $from_mail;
         $headers["X-Priority"] = "3";
         $headers["X-MSmail-Priority"] = "Normal";
         $smtpinfo["host"] = "YOUR MAIL SERVER HERE";
         $smtpinfo["port"] = "25";
         $smtpinfo["auth"] = true;
         $smtpinfo["username"] = "YOUR EMAIL LOGIN USER HERE";
         $smtpinfo["password"] = "YOUR LOGIN PASSWORD HERE";
         $mail_object =& Mail::factory("smtp", $smtpinfo);
         $mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $mailmsg);
    ?>
    To send email:
    <?php
    sendEmail($mail1,
    $recipient_name,
    $from_mail,
    $from_name, "Thank you for registering with $sitename", "You have registered this email address at $sitename \n

  • I have a problem with my 4s camera which has come up recently. Everytime I take a picture and look it up via the 'Photos' app, it shows as blank. But when I click on edit on the blank picture, it comes up and I am able to save it back on my photo album.

    I have a problem with my 4s camera which has come up recently. Everytime I take a picture and look it up via the 'Photos' app, it shows as blank. But when I click on edit on the blank picture, it comes up and I am able to save it back on my photo album as a proper image. Besides, I have also experiences the camera working a bit wiered (slow and often blanks out the moment I am ready to take a photo). Any help on this pls?

    Hi Noob Søren
    There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
    As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
    You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
    I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
    You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
    Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
    If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
    Hope this helps

  • Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.

    Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.
    I have this problem that started a while ago and seems to be getting worse.
    Here are the different scenarios.
    -If I try to share a photo to email within iPhoto, it will insert the image file name in the mail message, but no image icon or opened image. In iPhoto Preferences under General I have chosen to use Email Photos using Mail.
    -If I choose to use iPhoto to send the photo, it will compose the message and the photo is viewable. If I send the message i can view the photo within the email I sent to myself. Nothing happens when I double click on the photo in the Mail message. Nothing happens when i control click on the photo in the mail message. Nothing happens when I try to drag the photo to the desktop from the mail message. When I try to save attachments from the email and choose a place to save it, the save button is grayed out and it cannot be saved. When I check the mail message it says there is an attachemnt but there is no file size listed.
    -If I use the stationary within Mail app I cannot drag a photo into the placeholder, I get a circle with a line through it symbol when I try. It happens if I try to drag a photo from the desktop or from the media browser within Mail app.
    -If I drag the photo to the desktop from iPhoto, I can double click it on the desktop and it will open in Preview.
    -If I then control click on the same photo on the desktop and scroll to share/email, the generic photo icon will be inserted in the mail message. If i double click the photo icon in the mail message  I get a message it can't be opened because it is empty.
    -If I drag that same image to the mail message body the same thing happens.
    -If I send that email to someone they cannot open the image file.
    What I can do:
    - I can drag that same image file on the desktop to my dropbox folder and  it will upload. From there I can go on my iPad and download the photo and send it through email just fine.
    -I can open the same image file on my desktop in Preview, I can copy and paste it into a mail message and the image will be viewable in the mail message by me and by the recipient.
    -I can drag that same image on the desktop to my safari browser window and it will be viewable in the page. i can then copy and paste that image into a mail message and it is viewable in the message.  I can then send that email message to myself and i can control click on the image and get all my options. It also shows as an attachment with the size of the image file in the mail message.
    I can send that message to someone and they can see the photo and open it fine.
    -If I send that same email to me I can see the photo within the mail.  If I then drag that photo to the desktop I cannot use it again to put in an email as the same problem happens again.
    I have tried all scenarios in my user account, another users account and in a guest account. The same happens in all. I am guessing because of this it is not a corrupt preference file, unless all of the preference files are corrupt. The guest user account I added a new email account so it was brand new and still had the problem.
    I am stumped, all and any help is appreciated.

    Another problem that may be related….
    I have Snapz Pro. I used to be able to save the snaps to my desktop or a folder. Now when I take a screenshot and try to save the file to my desktop or a folder on my desktop I get this message  "Files cannot be created in the selected location. You do not have permission to write to the selected location.   Please choose a different location."  I have found that i can only save the file to the clipboard.   I have repaired permissions many times and still I have this problem.

  • Element v.11 & 9 Photo mail problem with MS Outlook

    Looking for a fix:  Elements v.11 has a photo mail problem with Microsoft Outlook mail, even when Outlook is designated the defaul e-mail program in Windows internet.
    Is there a fix??  Thanks.

    I just posted the same problem and so I'll join this thread, hoping to see an answer to your question.  By the way, this PSE11 feature worked fine for me with Outlook 2007, but stopped working when I upgraded to Outlook 365.

  • Virgin email via Apple Mail problem

    Hi - The search facility is temporarily down on this site, so I thought I'd post this to see if others have the same problem or there's a solution.
    I'm in the UK and Virgin Media are my provider. I have a primary POP email account with them and a number of aliases within that account. But just recently two of my accounts have 'gone down', i.e. they are greyed out on the left menu.
    I can still send from the accounts, but cannot receive. I can also log onto web mail without any issues, but mail is simply not downloading to Mail on my desktop. If I delete an account and set it up from scratch, it's fine again... but the problem re-occurs after a week or so.
    I have spoken to Virgin support a couple of times and on the last occasion they have said there is nothing obviously wrong at their server end and it must be an Apple Mail problem... most frustrating!
    Any clues anyone?

    After a recommendation from support at Virgin, I had to close down the accounts and set them up again. Unfortunately they didn't warn me that I would lose all of my email!!!

  • Mail more than 10 photos via standard mail

    Hi,
    is it really true ? You can't mail more than 10 photos as a regular mail message anymore ?
    Any help appreciated.
    thanks,
    guido

    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
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can then resize the image in the iPhoto Window

    Finally, you can make a simple OS Service to to automate the procedure. For more on this have a read of this:

    not sure you can do it from within the email app though.

  • Upgrade install to 10.5 Mail problems solution

    Ok, I am posting this after 2 days of research why Mail behaves crazily after I installed 10.5 via update. I tried archive and install as well with same Mail problems resulting.
    Now maybe this wont work for everybody, but it solved all my problems like a charm resulting in Mail working perfectly now.
    After one whole annoying day behind the forums I just thought I should post it.
    The basic problem was that my Mail didn't want to receive messages while the progress bars were just spinning infinite. Quitting Mail had to be done via Force Quite to stop it.
    First thing i noticed was that if I open "*Previous recipients*" panel I get the everlasting spinning beach ball.
    So I gathered that there must be some problem in the communication between Mail and Address Book. I backuped the Address Book database and deleted everything I could find connected with Address Book.
    Next step was going to Mail folder in my User Library where I deleted all mailboxes .plists and mails because I had some messages I couldn't delete in Mail app. I also deleted other .plist files.
    Then I reinstalled Address Book via additional install and rebooted the machine.
    Address Book now contained no addresses. I opened Mail, and bingo everything started working, opening "previous recipients" showed 0 contacts and I starter using Mail without problems.
    To finish the thing, just backup Address Book ad voila.
    Now, maybe that won't sort out everybody's problem, but it sure did mine. And I had all Mail problems described on this forum while sing Mail.
    Good luck fixing this highly annoying Leopard feature!

    Hi,
    Same thing here. All printers gone. Archive & Install 10.5 on a 2.33Ghz MBP. Cannot find my network printers. Tried everything I can think of. When I boot from my external drive (10.4.9) everything works great. Leopard also ate my company VPN and won't give it back. Any help would be welcome.

  • In mail, my attachments, both photos and documents appear in the body of the message.  How can I get my attachments to appear as a separate attachment and not as part of the message.  Thanks for your help, Karen.

    Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
    As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
    In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
    If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
    I completely agree.

  • HT5361 When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose "  button is gone. What have I done wrong?

    When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose "  button is gone. What have I done wrong?

    Hi Liz,
    Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem.  Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File",  then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups  opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine.  I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked  "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1).  I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do. 
    The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu,  when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.  
    I am now a happy camper. 
    I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto,  that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"? 
    Good luck Liz,  if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

  • I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • Mail problems,,no attachements options

    HI,
    I just started to use iPad 2 And having problems with mail accounts. I am trying to compose mail and I am not getting an option to add or change front, add attachements.... And all the other options associated with creating emails... All I am seeing is to, from, subject . Please help. Thanks

    With attachments, you don't add them to the mail as much as you go to where the attachment is stored or the app that manages it and send the attachment to the mail to be mailed.
    In other words, I can't go into mail and attach a photo, but I can go into the photo app, choose the photo I want to mail and send it to the mail app to be attached.
    The symbol for that is the little box with the little arcing arrow coming out of it.
    As to changing fonts, etc, I believe that the options for that are pretty limited on the iPad.

  • Aperture 2.1.3 Export Problems with Cropped Photos

    I ran into an odd problem after updating to 2.1.3. I was trying to upload to a Picasa album via "aperture-picasa-plugin", which I had used before without problems. The resulting export had problems with two photos I had cropped from landscape to portrait size. The resulting exports had the entire uncropped/original content "squeezed" into a photo matching the cropped size, so the exported pics were squished making everything look tall and skinny. (I found it especially odd that stuff I had cropped out was back in, but the size was cropped.)
    I assumed it was a problem with the plugin, so I exported to a file straight from Aperture and had the same problem. I had other crops that worked OK, but they appear to all be landscape to landscape with no change in aspect ratio.
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    YES!
    I have seen this show up as well. I'm also using Aperture 2.1.3. I too thought it was the fault of the picasa plugin... but when I, like you, started doing my exports directly to files I noticed that they still had the same problem.
    The horizontal 16x9 seems to be particularly vulnerable... And, yes, it almost looks as if the (pre-crop) master has been "squished" into the aspect ratio of the (post-crop) version. It is very strange, very annoying, and very intermittent. Although, I found that if I quit aperture, restart then re-export... I have better luck.
    Boy, am I relieved to find somebody else who is having this problem. For a while there I thought I was going nuts.
