Email from within iPhoto '08 (7.1.1) quit working

I am running Leopard (10.5.1) and iPhoto '08 (7.1.1) on a 2.4ghz 17" MBP. Whenever I try to email a photo from within iPhoto it pops up a window to let me choose size & options, I hit the Compose button, it will then popup a window saying that it is Preparing photos for email... then that window just goes away and it never creates the new email. I see this same behavior regardless of whether or not Mail is already open and regardless of what photo I am trying to email. This was working fine in the past... believe that it quit working after the upgrade to 10.5.1 (but not absolutely positive of that)... Any troubleshooting ideas would be greatly appreciated as I use this feature quite often.
Cheers!

Kirk:
Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Next, if needed, download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries 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.

Cannot send email from within iPhoto

Using OX X 10.7.5 cannot send email from within iPhoto. I get this error message: "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply."
If I change the preference to use email, everything goes fine but I lose the formatting feature.

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. Check out the Stationery...

Cannot send photos via email from within iPhoto

Hi, I used to use the functionality to send photos directly from iphoeto by email, using the templates provided.
It has always worked.
I have not used it since the last update to iPhoto 9.3, but it does not work anymore.
I get an error:
"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."
My mail is working fine, I can send and receive.
I did not change any email settings for a very long time.
Settings in iPhoto seem fine.
Anyone can help ?
Thanks !

In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete that account and re-enter
OR
IMHO the better solution is to set Apple Mail as your e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences

I cannot email photos from within iPhoto (v. 9.5.1). When I hit send I get a message: "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply." This happens for both my iCloud account and my Shaw account. What to do???

Are you able to email from Mail with those two accounts? If so:
1 - go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete both accounts. Now add them back and try again.
2 - a better solution IMO is to set Mail as the email client for iPhoto is iPhoto's General preference pane. This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy of all emails and, if you want a layout similar to iPhoto's, photo layouts located in Mail's stationary.

Send email from within apex 2.1 application

Hello,
I like to send email from within apex application. I use oracle 10g xe with apex 2.1
thx for advice
Edited by: wucis on Feb 27, 2012 11:49 AM

That is a very old version indeed. The documentation for sending emails from Apex 2.2 is here:

Cannot send an email from within contacts on iPhone

I’m trying to send email from within my contacts list app on my iPhone but the send button will not highlight and therefore cannot be pressed to send the email. Sending email from the mall app works fine. Anyone know why this is happening?

That also occurs for me and looks like a bug. The problem seems to be that, although the "To" address appears in the draft email, the iPhone does not think that it is there and won't activate the Send button. If one simply touches the "To" field the address disappears.
Submit this as a bug at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

I try to print a thumbnail from within iPhoto and it keeps telling me I don't have any themes installed. When I look in iPhoto folder the themes folder is there. Themes are in app. Support also. I rebuilt iPhoto database and rebooted but no cure. DICKSTER

Try to print from within iPhoto a thumbnail & I get message that there are no themes installed. They are in iPhoto folder and a folder of themes is in the library/ application support. I rebuilt iPhoto data base using iPhoto rebuild. No change, also rebooted hd.
Can someone straighten me out here?
Thanks

Restoring iPhoto 9 (11) Themes
First look in your HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one there move it to the Trash. Also look in your Home/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one move it to the Trash. Reinstall iPhoto as described below:
1 - delete the current application.
2 -files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,
Click to view full size
3 - mount the disk that iPhoto 11 came on, either an iLife 11 disc or the system disk that came with your computer and do a custom install selecting only iPhoto.
If iPhoto 11 came with the computer then double click on the "Install Bundled Software Only" file and do a custom install.
Apply all of the latest iPhoto 9 (11) updates followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility. Also make sure you're running the latest Quicktime version.

I am no longer able to send emails from within iPad apps.

I always used to be able to send files with attachments by email from within iPad apps like Adobe Reader or Pages. Used to work but now it doesn't - and this for all apps all at once. It gets to the point where it has prepared the email, but if you press send, it says "Could not save or send message". It also doesn't matter which email account I use - result always the same. It's a real pain as this was a good way of editing a word file and then emailing it to myself.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

Sending an Email from within an Oracle Package

Hi,
I am trying to send an email from within a Oracle package Body. The code i have to do this is as follows: -
PROCEDURE send_mail(sender_in IN VARCHAR2,
recipient_in IN VARCHAR2,
date_from_in IN VARCHAR2,
date_to_in IN VARCHAR2) IS
-- Procedure to send e-mail
mailhost VARCHAR2(30) := '192.168.2.6';
crlf VARCHAR2(2) := CHR(13)||CHR(10);
--message VARCHAR2(32767);
message LONG;
mail_conn utl_smtp.connection;
reply VARCHAR2(512);
BEGIN
mail_conn := utl_smtp.open_connection(mailhost, 25);
message := 'Date: '||TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD-MON-YY HH24:MI:SS')||crlf||
'From: <'||sender_in||'>'||crlf||
'Subject: ''Holiday Request'||crlf||
'To: '||recipient_in||crlf||
utl_smtp.helo(mail_conn, mailhost);
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn, sender_in);
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn, recipient_in);
utl_smtp.data(mail_conn, message);
utl_smtp.quit(mail_conn);
EXCEPTION
WHEN others THEN
RAISE;
END send_mail;
end holidays;
I have one question though. I am getting a ORA-29278 SMTP Transien Error: 421 Service Nota Available Error. I think this may be due to the 'Mailhost' value I have given in the above code. I have been informed that this should be the ip address of the mail server used or the ip address of the machine if it is being run locally. What would i need to put in here if i wish for an email to be sent from one hotmail address to another for example?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
Darren

hi
The funnier part is that
u can actually type in the sender's email id irrespective of the mail host used
Like @hotmail.com,@yahoo.com etc.
The receiver will get the mails from the email id that u wrote .
The problem u r facing is becoz of the incorrect mail host server ip address
Try to get in touch with the network admin for the mail server ip address
other way is
get the name it would be like
smtp.domain name .
hope that helps

Deleting images from HD from within iPhoto

I know this topic has been discussed in an incredibly unimpressingly high number of discussions forums throughout the world. I know that I should be able to find the answer in one ore more of these forums, but two days has passed and my girlfriends is getting ****** because I am still swearing in front of my computer. So, please help me.
I recently startedusing iPhoto (still unsure whether this was smart or not). I have UNchecked “Copy images to iPhoto library”, which means that iPhoto is working with my original files as they were and will be stored in my own catalogue structure.
I deleted pictures from within iPhoto, and emptied the trash folder in iPhoto. The photos disappear from the interface in iPhoto, but when using Finder I see that the photo is still in its catalogue on the HD - as they were before I deleted them from within iPhoto. It seems to me that it is impossible to, from within iPhoto, permanently delete a picture form BOTH iPhoto library AND the HD.
The logic of iPhoto hence differs from the logic of iTunes. When you delete a song from iTunes, you are asked if you also want the file/song deleted from the HD. Not so with iPhoto.
Does this mean that iPhoto is unable to delete a picture from the HD? And if so, who the **** decided to make iPhoto so utterly incapable of accomplishing such simple and fundamental task?

LarryHN wrote:
This was a bit frustrating since I only (or at least mainly) bought iPhoto for the purpose for looking thorugh my pictures and deleting the once I do not want to keep - witch iPhoto is not capable of doing since I want to keep my files (or at least the ones I do not want to delete) in its original catalogue structure on the HD.
this is incorrect - Unless you tell iPhoto that you want to manage your originals yourself deleting from iPhoto and emptying the iPhoto trash and the system trash totally delete the photo from iPhoto and from disk
IF you spcifically choose to manage your own originals then you have to manage your originals as you want to - this is one of many reasons what this mode of operation is not recommended
LN
Perhaps this isa matter for terminology? You say that I "want to manage" the originals myself, and you use this as a way of characterizing my wish to keep the files in their original file structure and not in the iPhoto library.
Regardless of terminology (so please do not refer to “you want to manage” and “you opted tomanage yourself”), what I take from your input is that IF I want to keep the files in their original catalogue structure and not in iPhoto library, THEN I cannot use iPhoto as a tool to manage (hereunder deleting from the HD) the pics.
Hopefully I ammistaking on the way I read you. Nothing would make me happier than to learnthat I can (1) keep the files in its original catalogue structure, (2) AND useiPhoto to delete from the HD the files I do not want to keep.

Can't email from within iPad apps

On my iPad w/Retina, I am unable to send email from within an application. Within Pages, for example, trying to email a document produced a "Couldn't send or save message" dialog. From within my NYT app, trying to email an article link produces "The operation could not be completed. (MFMailComposeErrorDomainError1.)" IPad's native mail app works fine.
Any thoughts?

Just got a reply to the same question in a different post, but it still doesn't tell me how to actually solve the problem, somstill waiting. See if this helps you:

Re: Why can't I send Emails from iPad apps?
09-Jul-2013 15:29 (in response to Louises)
I fixed this problem. In my case I was using the GMail app and I NEVER used Apple's Mail app that came with my iPad. So I had been checking all my settings for the Gmail app and I was ignoring the settings on Apple's Mail app. It turns out that even if you never use Apple's Mail app, other apps DO use Apple's Mail app when they send Email from within their repsective applications.
So I'm guessing you aren't using Apple's Mail app and you've therefore ignored the settings on that app. Fix all those settings and you should be fine.

Attaching pictures to Mail from within iPhoto

For my sister in law I am trying to find out, why she cannot attach photos to mails anymore, i.e. from within iPhoto. In iPhoto, when you select one or more photos, then click on Mail on icon list below the photos, the photos are prepared for attachment. In a pop-up window you can choose from different sizes, for example. When you click on ok, a progress bar appears. Once the process is complete nothing happens, Mail does not open. Also, there is no draft mail created in Mail. What went wrong? How do I fix it? Attaching photos by dragging them on the Mail icon in the dock works fine, though. Thanks a lot in advance.

Given that iPhoto goes through the motions of resizing etc, I would suspect the problem is at the Mail end.
Has she tried repairing permissions with Disk Utility?

Why can I no longer play movie files from within iPhoto '08

After uploading all my stills and movie files from by digital camera to iphoto '08, I used to be able to click and play a movie file from within iphoto. The frame and duration still appear but no response. Have I inadvertantly switched something off or has the funtionality changed as a result of my upgrading the OS.

Make sure you have the Quicktime Player 7 installed. It was an option when installing Lion. Or you can get it here: QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later. Install it, reboot and try again.
