Email sharing with gmail

When sharing a document with a collaborator, I place the pointer over their name at the bottom of the page, the tab pops up, and gives me the option of clicking on their email address to send them an email. This is especially useful if I want to let someone know a document has been updated during a long, back and forth, stretch of updates.
Using chrome, there is a wonderful extension that allows for a clickable email address to open gmail by default, instead of opening a traditional mail program, i.e. outlook, thunderbird, etc. This doesn't work in Buzzword.
I realize that this is just an extension in chrome, but there are many gmail users out there whom I imagine would like to use this feature. It seems to work in every other website I have tried. Perhaps it is a flash limitation.
Or, is there a way to hit a button that sends a "this document has been updated email" to all of the collaborators on a particular document.
Or, am I missing something.
Cheers!

Thank you for your post. I'm sorry for the delay in responding.
I'll follow up with the Buzzword team re: using the chrome email extention. It could very well be incompatible with Flash.
In regards to the option to update all collaborators at once, there is an option using the Share button on the lower left of the screen when the document in question is open:
Hope this helps,
Michelle

Iphoto will not email photos with gmail account "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination."

Hello!
I'm running OSX (v 10.10) and I am having issues sending photos out of iphoto. I have a gmail account and I have confirmed my username and password by logging in to gmail online. An help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Had the same error with gmail and was able to fix it.
For me it was a problem with a setting in Gmail. It seems that iPhoto isn't using SSL even though it has the check box.
Solution for me:
Go here https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
Read the details carefully, what you're about to do is NOT recommended by google
If you still want to get iPhoto to work click on 'Enable' which will decrease the security settings on your gmail account
Presto magic! It works.
Personally I think this is a bug, I'm not sure if apple was sending security and stopped or if google got more secure by default but it seems like something apple should be fixing in iPhoto. I was able to send and receive from Mail without any problems before changing the setting, they clearly have the code to do things properly... Apple please port that code to iPhoto!

Outgoing email problem with Gmail via ATT

I'm posting this on behalf of my mom, who's at her wit's end with her Mail program.
She has AT&T DSL service, and uses Gmail for her mail. Also, she's running 10.5 on a Macbook. We've tried fiddling with things every since she got the system in the spring, but she's consistently had trouble connecting to the Gmail server, especially regarding outgoing email. Most of the time it takes forever for a message to send, if it ever sends at all.
I use Comcast and Gmail and have never had any problems, which leads me to believe that this may have something to do with ATT(/Bellsouth). Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I have same problem with Apple Mail at ATT as ISP. I used the program ATTYahoo!EmailSetup from their website. Now I can rarely send any email, from my work email or from my MobileMe email. I seems like that program messed up the entire Apple Mail client so it can no longer send mail. Emails I try to send just sit the in Outbox. Does anyone have a solution?

Cannot Email Photos with Gmail

I read some discussions troubleshooting gmail and iPhoto. Bottom line is I cannot email from iPhoto using gmail. I continue to get an error message saying my password and userID are not recognized. I have checked and rechecked. I have added the gmail account, deleted and re-added. Nothing works. I am so frustrated with my iMAC. Seems like everything outside the Apple bubble never works. I need a reason to hang on to my iMAC and not go back to windows. You also cannot email Pages docs using Gmail. Just one thing after another....ugh Come on Apple...why so difficult. I bought you because it was supposed to be easy!!!

Bottom line is I cannot email from iPhoto using gmail.
and
I use gmail to mail through iPhoto so there isn't a compatibility issue.
Huh?

Email Forwarding with GMail

Hi folks,
I have my own email address, lets say called "[email protected]" and use email forwarding via a Gmail account, called "[email protected]", but when my email is returned, it says from "Me" <[email protected]>, which is annoying, is there anyway to get it to say "Me" <[email protected]> instead of the gmail address??
I have moved away from Entourage and am now using Apples Mail application.
Many thanks in advance.
Ian

Oh OK, thanks, maybe I can look at somehow making GMail alias itself as a different email address?
you can try. but I haven't found a way to fool gmail myself.

Trying to use email app with gmail wrong password when its correct

this happened to me and it took me forever to figure out how to get my gmail to sync into my email app
on your phone all you do is goto your app and enter in your email and password for gmail or whatever.
then when it tries to save and all of that and the picture comes up saying incorrect then you click settings.
CLICK HOME BUTTON. GOTO SAFARI
type
http://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
click continue
account access enabled:
click create and application-specific password in blue
click visit your GOOGLE ACCOUNT SETTINGS PAGE
then password and security......type your password
click manage application-specific passwords
type in the box like gmail iphone
LETTERS POPP UP IN YELLOW copy and paste the four set of four
go back to your email where we clicked settings before now change your original REAL password and past that four set of four into it. that was the only way i could get my email to sync

Your AirPort Extreme supports WPA.
WEP is outdated and considered fairly useless, so use WPA.
Be sure you are using AirPort Utility 5.6. If you are not running Lion then use AirPort Utility 5.5.3.

Schedule with Exchange & Email with GMail?

Oh wise people,
I am considering getting an iPhone. I want to keep my Schedule synced with Exchange (for work) and my email synced with GMail (for personal).
Is this possible? Is the Exchange sync an all or nothing sort of thing?
Thanks in advance,
cweight

Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars
Tap on the Exchange profile you have (or will) set up, then toggle off the service you don't want to sync up. (There is a button for each of: Mail, Contacts, Calendars)

ICloud Calendar email invitations with my personal email domain

Hi,
I want to send the invitations of the calendar of iCloud with my work email, with the domain of my company @espero.it (and not with mail @me.com, @mac.com or @gmail.com).
I try to set my apple account just with this email address, but the invitations now send with the domain @mac.com and not with the email of my account... If I set the email address with @gmail.com it works...
why? can't I send with my domain??

now it works: the invitations of calendar are send with my personal domain.
But there's another big problem: the invitations that I send to another user that have an email with my same domain ([email protected] to [email protected]) don't arrive, but are blocked by the mailserver, for security...
If in iCloud Calendar I could add the authenticatin-data of my email account, iCloud can send the invitations with authentication, and so my mail-server doesn't block!!

UDPATE:
Spoke with Express lane, and issue was escalated. Kudos to the support guys that handled this one (Brian and Yi). Went through everything in detail and took all the crash dumps off the iphones and ipads to send to engineering.
After backing up the contacts, the recommendation was to delete all contacts in iCloud. Doing that caused my iCloud to crash (in the browser), so more crash dumps were sent to apple.
Eventually got all contacts deleted, then did a resync. Looks like IOS devices are coming back to life and syncing again.
Also, Outlook iCloud connector has just been updated to ver 1.0.1 so i installed that on their recommendation.
BOTTOM LINE workaround:
1. Backup contacts
2. Delete contacts in iCloud
3. Delete accounts on IOS devices
4. Recreate accounts on IOS devices.
Hoping a real root cause can be found and real fix implemented. This has caused me to doubt the stability of iCloud, so i will procees with caution.

Can I send email using my own domain address with iCloud the way I can with gmail?

Let's say I own mydomain.com and have a [email protected] email account. I have set that up to forward to gmail, and that would be easy to switch to iCloud. Here's the tricky part: gmail allows me to send email as [email protected] I've been doing this for years and it works, but I'd like to switch from gmail to iCloud. Can I set up this same behavior with an iCloud @me.com address (which I already have but haven't been using yet)? I know I can obviously switch the forwarding of incoming mail to my @me.com address... but can I send [email protected] email through iCloud the way I can with gmail? All of my devices are Apple: a Mac Mini using Apple's Mail app, and an iPhone and an iPad both using the Apple email app, so I'd rather switch everything over from gmail to iCloud.
P.S. Awe, c'mon Apple. Don't turn those fake addresses into links. I just used them for the sake of giving an example.

Ah, I should have made that clear. My domain didn't come from google. It was purchased at and is hosted at dreamhost, but I haven't used their email servers in years - I just route everything through gmail. I actually have a bunch of domains (with websites).
Gmail has an option that lets someone with custom domains send (and receive) email through gmail using the custom domain once Google confirms proper ownership of the domain (to prevent spammers and such). Gmail has a setting for "send email as" which allows gmail to be sent using a custom domain as the sender. I'm pretty sure Apple's old mobileme had this feature too, but I didn't use it.

You can't merge accounts, if you start using the gmail account for iCloud by logging out of the me ID in system preferences and back in using the gmail ID, you'll need to copy all your data in calendars etc to the gmail account. you also won't be able to use the me address for mail unless you add the me account as a secondary account at system preferences > mail, contacts and calendars.

Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466, and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

When I compose an email in either gmail or yahoo, the cursor lags behind for about 2 seconds. This does not happen when I compose an email with Safari or Chrome. I am using a Mac with Firefox version 3.6.3. Any idea why this happens?
