Email @me and gmail work fine, but not from iPhoto

e-mail works fine, checked all connections, PWs etc., but not when sending photos from iPhoto; error message is :The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination.  I've checked both in email accounts and reset both.

What are you settings in the iPhoto Preferences > General?
If you have set "Email photos using iPhoto", change this to "Email photos using Mail". This works more reliably.

  • After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
    From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
    I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
    I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite.

    I have an old iPhone 3Gs with software version 4.3.5,  I am trying to use it again, and it works fine, but I have not been able to update the software.  Every time I try, I get the following message:
    "there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone, the network connection could not be established".  This happens even though I have a working internet connection.
    Besides that, all the other functions work properly, even synchronize apps and library.
    Will I be able to update the software?

    look around the forum tons of people repport that they can't update
    makes you suspect that apples update servers can't meet the depand of too many users

    Thank you everyone for your suggestions and help.  Ended up logging out of my apple ID account.  Of note, when I did I did a quick test and checked out both the movies and tv show options, and it all worked perfectly.  I then logged back in, and now all my purchased and rentals are available which makes sense.  I guess with the update there was some weird bit of trons that required one to log out then back in.  Probably doing a rest in between may not hurt for some.  Thanks again for all the assistance. Cheers.
    It looks like there is a Apple doc for this problem here -> Apple TV: Unable to access Movies, TV Shows, or other iTunes features after updating

    If you Go to the app store on your phone, then go to updates you should have a purchased icon at the top.
    Click on that and it will show the apps you have downloaded before as they are stored on the icloud.
    Then you should be able to click on the app and redownload it, not sure if it will charge but its worth a try.

    Is this the app you're referring to?
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/phone-tracker/id348537489?mt=8
    As you'll note it's made by Presselite and that page has a link to their support.
    Also, you'll find it best not to post questions about iPhone apps in the AppleWorks forum. Best to contact the makers of the app.

    hi all - i have an AS2 contact form using php to send the info to my email address - it all works fine except this ..... rather than having an empty comments box in the flash movie i had added a whole bunch of feedback questions that the user can comment yes/no to in the comments box (my feedback questions were added into the input text box in cs3 so are there when the user opens the contact page .. i have set the maximum characters to 10000 so no worries that its that that is stopping it all coming through in the email ..... basically when i go to my form online and send it i get it through as an email but with only three quarters of the feedback text in it ...... i have tried a zillion ways a round this, tried other contact forms and php and always end up with the same problem ... any ideas any one ?

    any help much appreciated

    i think you should not use $HTTP_USER_AGENT.
    and use loadvars instead of loadvariablesnum:
    stop();
    a =0;
    function validate () {
        if (from.length>=7) {
            if (from.indexOf("@")>0) {
                if ((from.indexOf("@")+2)<from.lastIndexOf(".")) {
                    if (from.lastIndexOf(".")<(from.length-2)) {
                        a = 1;
                        // email is fine
    function formcheck () {
        validate ();       
        trace(a);
        if (fname = "" or telno eq "" or comments eq "" or from eq "") {
            stop();
            error = "You have left blank fields, please fill in all fields, thank you";
        } else {
            emailcheck ();
    var sendLV:LoadVars=new LoadVars();
    function emailcheck (){
        if (a != 1){
            stop();
            error = "Email address not valid";
            } else {
    sendLV.name=fname;
    sendLV.telno=telno;
    sendLV.company=company;  //assuming company is a variable in your flash
    sendLV.comments=comments;
    sendLV.send("mail.php3", "POST");
            gotoAndStop(2);
    //..........this is the php
    <?php
    $adminaddress = "[email protected]";
    $sitename = "Flash Site Form Mailer";

  • ColdFusion 4.5 & Oracle 8.1.6 - Both work fine but not together!

    Hi everyone,
    We installed Oracle 8.1.6 and ColdFusion 4.5 on RedHat 6.2. Both individually work fine, but we cannot get the combination to work.
    SqlPlus gets a connection to a remote server, so the tnslistener configuration works. We tried both the ODBC and native drivers, but the connections never verify O.K.
    The only thing we worry about is that the script that CF provides for relinking of the libclntsh.so stops with an error:
    (...)/8.1.6/lib naldflgds not found
    ld: cannot find -lsql
    We already tried the suggestion of Borren Jeng (run gennaflg from $ORACLE_HOME/bin). Regretfully this gennaflg also doesn't exist, so this didn't work for us...
    We really got stuck here, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
    - Richard.

    The naldflgds is only exist in V8.0.5.
    Here is what yo can try:
    you only need to do the folling things.
    1. copy $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so to CFUSN/lib
    2. you need to chmod for your $ORACLE_HOME directory to allow the Coldfusion owner execute the file under $ORACLE_HOME. I don't remeber what the exaclty number need for chmod on $ORACLE_HOME, but you can try
    "chmod -R 8.1.6" (if you $ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/app/product/8.1.6 you should cd to =/home/oracle/app/product)This should work. but this cause another seurity issue.
    The only thing we worry about is that the script that CF provides for relinking of the libclntsh.so stops with an error:

  • Hi, I have a problem with my Epson Stylus NX420. I had it connected and it worked fine but then all of a sudden it just stopped. It said it was offline, but it wasn't. So I tried to reinstall the printer, so i deleted it and clicked the   button to add

    Hi, I have a problem with my Epson Stylus NX420. I had it connected to my computer, and it worked fine. But I preformed a remodel and before the printer was connected to a windows desktop, and now it is not. I don't know if this could the be the cause of the problem. But I tried to print something and it showed me the printer as offline, but it wasn't. Thus to try to fix this, as I have done before I deleted the printer and tried to add it again. But as I went to add it, the printer was not there. I have searched the internet for an answer and I have found nothing. I do not understand why this has happened, nor how to fix it. Please help me.

    Because you had the printer connected to Windows, the print queue on your Mac was for this connection. With you moving the printer away from the Windows computer, the print queue on the Mac will no longer work and will show offline. So for the new connection of the printer you have to create a new print queue.
    Now the question is; how is the printer connected to the Mac. If it is connected by USB to the Mac then it should appear in the Default Add Printer view. If it is connected to the Mac via some other method, then could you reply with how it is connected.
    If it is connected to the Mac by USB then the most likely cause for the printer not appearing in the Default Add Printer view is thenUSB printer cable. So try disconnecting it and reconnecting it or even try another USB printer cable.

  • CR08 report published on BOEXI works fine, but not on CRS08 (JDBC conn)

    CR08 report published on BOEXI works fine, but same report published on CRS08 does not work (JDBC connectivity)
    The workflow is:
    1 - Crystal Report was created using CR2008 using JDBC connectivity,
    2 - Published on BOEXI, and
    3 - Same report accessed through InfoView
         Remark - the report works fine.
    The very same .rpt when published on CRS 08, throws an error;
    1 - Crystal Report was created using CR2008 using JDBC connectivity,
    2 - Publishing it on CRS 2008, and
    3 - Same report accessed through InfoView
         Remark - The report does not open (Error: Failed to open the connection.... )
    If the publishing of reports take place from CR08 to BOE XI and could be successfully viewed in InfoView, then why cannot the same rpt be viewed in CRS 2008 InfoView.

    Moving to BOE forums.

  • Hello, I have the usual issue to use AcroExch.PDDoc/AcroExch.App/AcroExch.AVDoc objects in Visual Basic (MS EXCEL). On my company's machine I have Acrobat X and everything works fine, but I have another machine with just "Reader" installed - is there als

    Hello, I have the usual issue to use AcroExch.PDDoc/AcroExch.App/AcroExch.AVDoc objects in Visual Basic (MS EXCEL). On my company's machine I have Acrobat X and everything works fine. I am looking for the cheapest solution to get the stuff running on another machine... is there any way to do that with the Acrobat SDK, or do I need to purchase a full version of Acrobat XI ($$) ?

    The Acrobat SDK is nothing by itself. It is just information on how to automate Acrobat - just as the Office SDK doesn't include Office, but is for people who already have purchased Office but want to automate it.
    These automation things are MARKETING TOOLS FOR ACROBAT. Consider this and the technical limitations make a lot more sense.
    So, yes, you need to buy Acrobat. Standard is cheaper than Pro.

  • PSE 10 will print from the organizer and in sharing mode, but not from full edit

    I'm using pse10 on a computer with an i7 processor with 12GB of ram and windows 7 with a color laser printer.  The print function works fine while in organizer and sharing mode, but not from full edit.   When I try to print from full edit, I get an  error message with a red "X" on it that says:  "Before you can perform printer related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."  I can't figure it out.  The printer is in "ready" state, and works fine in the organizer mode, and in share.  Any thoughts on what I'm missing? Thanks for any help in advance.

    This occurs frequently with HP printers, though  others are implicted as well from time to time
    In Control panel>Devices and printers, right click your active printer, go to Printer Properties, and rename the printer to something short, e.g. my printer
