Email Photo Clarity Question

Does anyone know what the largest pic you can send to your phone via email is while still maintaining the sharpest quality? I emailed a very large pic to my phone and when I saved it to my photos it was very very blurry. Can anyone help?

Saving any photo from an email attachment to your iPhone photos 'optimizes' it (reduces the resolution). There was a bug in v2.2 that made the pics blurry - that was fixed in v2.2.1 so update your iPhone if you have not yet done that.

  • Basic question about emailing photos

    When I email photos, sometimes I need to email them to myself. For some reason the iPhone automatically put's my email address on the CC and From areas. Is there a way to take myself off the CC and just have it on the From area?
    Thanks

    When you want to email the photo to yourself, you want to place your email address in the Bcc: field so your email address doesn't appear in the message header except in the From: field?
    If so, the iPhone includes an Always Bcc Myself option.
    If you are using this, your email address is placed in the Cc: field instead of the Bcc: field?

  • Can't save emailed photos to iPhoto

    The computer is an iBook G3, 900 MHz, 40 GB hard drive running OS X v.10.4.11 with Mail 2 and iPhoto 2. This is a computer which I am trying to set up for a friend.
    I recently posted a similar question in the iPhoto forum thinking the problem might be with version of iPhoto that originally shipped with the iBook, but to date have received no replies. I am now wondering if it's a Mail problem rather than an iPhoto problem.
    If the computer receives an emailed photo, I get the "Save" button and if I click on it, I also get the "Add to iPhoto" option. However, if I select the "Add to iPhoto" option, nothing happens. The photo is not added to the iPhoto library.
    There is also an external 120 GB FireWire external drive associated with this computer. My niece did the original installation on the boot drive, which I believe was just an erase and install from a retail Tiger disc. I had to restore the iLife applications from the Jaguar system disc. I then came across this KB article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2475
    Thinking that was the problem, I took the external disk and did a fresh installation starting from the Jaguar system discs and then upgrading to Tiger and updating all the software. The external drive now has a full installation on it including OS 9.
    Same thing--I cannot simply save a photo to iPhoto. I also noticed that if I go to Mail>Preferences>Fonts and Colors and set preferences for larger fonts, this also does not work. However, I am able to put the magnifier in the Mail tool bar and this does work to enlarge text. This is true for both the internal and external hard drive.
    My friend is new to Macs and new to computers, so I would like to make Mail and iPhoto as simple as possible for him to use.
    We're using a GMail IMAP account if that has any bearing.
    Thanks in advance!

    I don't believe so--it's a fresh installation of the OS on both hard drives. I downloaded iStatPro and Maintidget on both drives and SMART Reporter and Smart Utility on the built in drive as well, but I wouldn't expect any of these to have anything to do with how mail works.
    It's possible I somehow made some sort of an error when I set up Mail-- I followed the GMail instructions. Not sure where to look for something like this.
    To be more specific about what I do, I click on the gray triangle to the right of "Save", and I get a drop down menu with the photos and the option of "Save to iPhoto" at the bottom of the list. I go down and click on the "Save to iPhoto" and nothing happens.
    I know the iBook G3 is doing this because I was trying to show my friend how to add emailed photos to his iPhoto library and it just doesn't work.
    I also have a different iBook G4 running Tiger, and with both iPhoto 6 and iPhoto 8, I can add emailed photos to iPhoto in this way.
    I'm wondering if I need to find my friend a newer version of iPhoto--maybe iPhoto 5. I'm wondering if iPhoto 2 is the problem--maybe this feature doesn't work on it. That's why I tried my question on the iPhoto forum first, but so far no response, and also no response to some other questions about iPhoto 2.
    Yes, I did repair permissions on both drives until there was nothing left to repair.
    Thanks for the response--I am very puzzled by this.

  • Transfer kodak emailed photos to iphoto

    my newest question is how do you get photos emailed to you in kodak's email photo gallery to transfer to iphoto ? there is no attachment to click on or save button

    You have to upload your image to a web space, either .mac or space given to you by your ISP or even upload to free photo space places like Photo bucket. Once uploaded you have to type the image HTML tag in your post.

  • IPhoto 5 has better quality that iPhoto 6 when emailing photos?

    How can I set up iPhoto 6 to use the same image quality as iPhoto 5 when emailing photos?
    I have two iMacs, side by side, one is G5 with iPhoto 5, and another is Intel with iPhoto 6. When I use iPhoto 5 to email a photo, medium quality 640x480, it looks beautiful. It looks like a perfect replica of a high-res photo, just smaller, but very clear. But when I do the same with iPhoto 6, again medium quality, the photo looks terrible, the image is very poor, it is jagged around people's faces with apparent artifacts of higher jpeg compression -- whereas none of these artifacts are present when emailing from iPhoto 5.
    The problem with iPhoto6 seems to be that it uses a higher jpg compression thus lowering the photo quality.
    To illustrate, here is the photo emailed from iPhoto5:
    http://www.cinemaclock.com/iPhoto5.jpg (100kB)
    and here is the SAME photo emailed the same way from iPhoto 6:
    http://www.cinemaclock.com/iPhoto6.jpg (36kB)
    Interesting is that when I click to email from iPhoto6 it estimates the photo size to 122kB, the same estimation as in iPhoto5, but then iPhoto6 compresses it down to 36kB.
    Question: How can I set up iPhoto 6 to email the same photo quality as iPhoto 5?
    iMac G5 + iMac Intel   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   iPhoto 5 vs. 6

    I have the SAME problem!! Apple, please help how to correct the poor image quality?

    How do I open an email attachment in ps touch?

    How to open an emailed photo:
    1. Below, I have an e-mail opened up with an attachment. I selected the photo below.
    2. Press the arrow button in the top right corner. Here I have a option to save the image.
    Once you save it to your camera roll, you can open the photo in Photoshop Touch.

  • Emailing photos in PE11

    When using PE11 for emailing photos I find that I can't edit the text part of the message.  Everything else works fine.  I never had this problem with PE5.

    Yes I've noticed this in PSE12 as well (using Adobe Mail). But accelerator keys do work in the text window. So I Ctrl-A the default message and hit Delete. Compose my new message in Notepad, copy it, and then Ctrl-V into the email message window.

  • Email photos using iPhoto 11

    I have two iMacs: an Intel Core Duo and an Intel Core i7. Both have iPhoto 11. I have set up the iPhoto Mail preferences identical to the Mail preferences on both computers. With the Intel Core i7 it works fine. I can email photos directly from iPhoto.  But, with the Intel Core Duo I keep getting error messages that the user/password does not match. I have double checked both iPhoto and Mail preferences and they do match. So, this appears to be a glitch. I don't know whether it has anything to do with the Core Duo or not. (Note: I know I can email photos from Mail, but with 10,000 photos it takes much more time finding the photos than if doing it in iPhoto --- i.e. one of the reason I upgraded from iPhoto 9 to 11). Can anyone help?

    Are you able to email from outside iPhoto with the Intel Core Duo?  If not then it's a question for the Snow Leopard/Mail community.
    You can try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Next try reapplying the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility.

  • Im properly emailing photos in Iphoto 11, but recipients can't open.

    Im properly sending photos from Iphoto, it says successfully sent, but some recepients are not  able to see the photos, and some get boxes with question marks, using Iphoto 11 Vs 9.2.1. Inever had this problem before. Im also having a problem opening Iphoto sometimes. This Iphoto11 is problematic, and causing me much grief.

    What type of computer do the people having problems have?
    One guy has a Mac  --  if that the only person who has had a problem? Has he had the problem multiple times or only once? What e-mail client does he use?
    on a given e-mail have you ever had some able to open the photo and others not?
    To upgrade to 9.2.3 if you have an older Mac and got software restore disks with it use software update - it you have a newer Mac and get your software from the App store log into to the App store using the Apple ID you registered the computer with and look under purchased apps for updates - download and install from there
    and again
    IMHO the best solution is to quity using iPhoto to email photos and use Apple mail - set it as teh iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences

  • Why can't I email photos from my iPhone 4S?

    Why can't I email photos from my iPhone 4S? It goes through the motions, select photo, recipient, file size but nothing is received.

    Are you sending an email using a return address of, say @xxx.com" but using an outgoing server from a @yyy.com service?  If so, this is known as relaying.  Many servers now reject such emails, as this method is often used by spammers.  Depending on your email provider, you may be able to get around that by going into the settings for that email account and finding a place where you can enter a valid @yyy.com address along with a password.  (You'll have to hunt around the settings to find this, IF the account allows for that.)
    Example:  A non-icloud exchange account:  Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars - In the Accounts section, tap the account in question (e.x. yyy.com), tap the Account name, fill in the Username and password in the section that also includes "Domain    Optional"  where optional is in gray.
    Example:  For icloud, Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars - In the Accounts section, tap the icloud account, Tap (in Advanced), "Mail" then indicate emails you want to use in "Allow Sending From".
    Doing so lets you continue using a return address of @xxx.com, but the server also gets the valid address and password for its service and forwards the email as it should.

  • I have the latest version of iPhoto and now I don't have the Apple templates for emailing photos.  What happened?  How can I get them back?

    I have the latest version of iPhoto and somehow I have lost the ability to use the Apple iPhoto templates for emailing photos.  I select my photos, go to Share, go to email, and the templates used to pop up.  Now the photos go directly to email.  Does anyone know how I can get the templates back?

    I encountered the same issue after an upgrade of iPhoto, and it was resolved by clicking on the "iPhoto" button on the menu on the top left of your screen, then "preferences", and in the very first window (General), select the very last pull-down menu "email photos using".
    There, you can select various email providers, aol (if set-up), Microsoft outlook, etc... and of course, iPhoto (which should be the very first choice on the pull-down menu).
    Select iPhoto, and you will immediately be able to use the templates and make cool cards when emailing your photos from iPhoto.
    I hope this helps if your question has not yet been answered.

  • Emailing photos from iOS4

    I have a 16gb 3GS. After upgrading to iOS4 I can no longer send photo that I take with the camera. It appears to create the e-mail and then asks me for the size. When I select a size it takes the rsponse and then just sits there and does nothing. If I go to the outbox in mail, the e-mail is there and can be sent from there but not from the photo application. My spouse's iPhone4 sends the pictures with no problem. Is there a setting that has been changed? Thanks for any help!

  • Cant email photos,no validation code

    Have been trying to email photos from photoshop elements 9.The program keeps asking me to enter a validation code.
    Bought this H.P. laptop 1 yr. ago with Photoshop Elements 9 installed but have never been able to email from Photoshop Elements,the program keeps asking me for a validation code.
    I have gone through this exercise twice now and never get any kind of reply . This is very frustrating and a very lame way to provide customer support.
    PLEASE reply to this concern by email at ([email protected])

    A while since I used 9, but I think the process is much the same. When you enter your sending email address, PSE sends an email to that address containing a verification code. This ensures that it is an email address you own. You must then enter that code back into PSE before it can be used to email photos.
    So check your email address for an email from Adobe. If not in your Inbox, make sure you check junk and spam folders.
