Emailing from iPhoto doesn't create new message

I'm trying to email some photos from iPhoto using Apple Mail. I select my photos tell it what size to send, photo count is correct. Click on Compose and I see a progress bar...preparing photos for email. it says it processed the correct # of photos but I don't get the new message dialog box.
Could this be because I'm using gmail imap?

Could this be because I'm using gmail imap?
Unlikely, as the service you use has no impact on creating the message, only on sending it.
try the troubleshooting basics:
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

Drop & Drop file onto Mail icon doesn't create new message

New to Snow-leopard and what used to work in Leopard... dragging a file from the finder onto the Mail icon would open a new message with that file as the attachment... doesn't seem to work in SL. Mail will come to the front, but, beyond that, nothing happens.
Mail 4.2
OS X 10.6.2
Any ideas?

Hi,
Works properly here, but remember seeing other reports. I will keep looking for earlier topics and resolution, if any, for those reporting.
Meanwhile, create a New User Account on your Mac, and as that New User open Mail and set up one email account as a test. If a POP account, set it to leave messages in the server after download.
See the following if not familiar with adding a new user account:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
This will test the app itself vs your current User Account.

I'm trying to email from iPhoto and I get this message:

"The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."
What do I do?

Making sure your email account settings are correct will cure this problem IF you have an email account such as gmail, yahoo, hotmail etc. But if you have your own personal domain hosted by a company like 1and1, there seems to be no way around this bug - emailing from within iPhoto using an email account such as [email protected] will not work.
The only work around I have found is to set the settings in iphoto to send emails using "Mail" rather than "iPhoto"
Really annoying as this means you cannot use the nice templates within iPhoto for mailing....
Apple acknoweldged to me that this is a known bug, but they have not said if it will ever be fixed in iPhoto11. We may have to wait for iPhoto13?

Error message when trying to email from iPhoto

Just spoke to Apple support because I was unable to email from iPhoto unless I went through Mail (i.e. no templates). I had struggled with this for some months. The patient and helpful Apple people solved the problem after a couple of hours. Two-step verification in iCloud was the source. Since the email originates in the iPhoto app, it is necessary to use an app-specific password in iPhoto/ preferences/accounts/iCloud account.
That's why my wife's computer didn't have the problem. She doesn't have two-step verification enabled.
Thanks to Apple for the excellent support.

Yes, LarryHN is right - two-step verification seems to be causing this problem in some cases.
Other forum members reported, that creating an app-specific password is required, see the post below:
Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
https://appleid.apple.com
Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
Click Password and Security in the left column
Click Generate an app-specific password
Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
And...voila' (I hope)

How do I copy multiple email addresses from one email sent TO me into a new message?

How do I copy multiple email addresses from an email sent to me into a new message?

Are they in the body of the mail?
Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

Cannot email from iPhoto: internet not connected message

I am using the latest version of iPhoto and also have just upgraded to Yosemite, though this problem has existed forever and I am just now at my limit of tolerance.
I get a message that says my internet is not connected or working properly; completely false btw. I have tried deleting my accounts in iPhoto and reinstalling them to no avail.
What do I do?

I could have sworn that I had chosen the options you suggested in the first place. I did change to select Mail as the app and after your message, I tried once again to select iPhoto as the email app and yes, my iCloud account was at the top of the account list in iPhoto. This time the email from iPhoto worked perfectly.
As they say in NYC..."Go figure"
Thanks for the help

Emailing from iPhoto using Mail & .Mac account in a foreign country

Hi all.
I love the OSX integration of being able to just select some photos in
iPhoto and click the email button. Opens up Mail program and sends away.
It makes it very easy and simple for someone like my girlfriend who would rather not think about where things are stored and how to attach them.
I even made her get a .Mac account to simply things even more!
Great.... but......
Off she goes with the iBook to Thailand to do her wholesale shopping.
With a new digital camera, iBook, .Mac account and iLife 6 all packed too.
(plus a quick lesson in using iWeb to get photos to a web page).
So now she takes some photos, loads them into iPhoto, edits, crops,
makes them look pretty. All in the comfort of her own room. Then off
to the Internet Cafe she goes, pays for a wireless hookup (the iBooks got airport). Goes to iPhoto, selects the photos, clicks email. Mail opens and a
new message with the photos already attached opens. After typing a message and sending the message......an error gets returned saying unable to send message do to SMTP outgoing server.
Having ran into this issue at home already, I followed instructions I found on the apple site regarding changing the mail setting account info SMTP server port number. Well that worked for home and after trying to get her to change it via the numerous numbers suggested from the Support pages on apple. Could not get her to be able to send an email (even when selecting .mac as the selected outgoing mail server).
Any suggestions on how to get this to work.
I just went into the new web .Mac mail and while you can attach files.
There is no way to use the iPhoto program to do this or to just be able to drag and drop from iPhoto to .Mac webmail.
Trying to show her the pathway to find her photos in the Pictures folder is not really an option.
thanks
Kerry

Hi Kerry
Some ISPs don't allow one to send email via another connection to prevent spammers using their servers for relaying junk.
I suggest that she use the webmail function of .Mac.
She could export the files to desktop, making sure that she adjusts the file size in the dialogue box so that the files are not too large, and then add to the email via the normal webmail interface.

Signature photo broken when emailing from iPhoto

I have a photo above my name in my default signature in Mail. When I click the Email" button in iPhoto to send photos via email, my signature photo shows up as and icon that reads "Untitled (82kb)".
The photo in my signature works FINE if I create a new email, but not in the new emails that iPhoto creates with the pictures attached.
I added the photo to the signature field in Mail's preferences by dragging and dropping the .JPG file from the Finder. That, and copying and pasting seems to be the only way to put a photo in a signature. Neither method works when initiating an email from iPhoto.
Mail 2.1
iphoto 5.0.4
Any ideas, anyone?
Thanks!

Marius,
set the mailer in the iPhoto Preferences to "Mail.app", not to "iPhoto"
iPhoto > Preferences > General
Email Photos using: Mail
This way you will be able to mail your photos directly from iPhoto, but you cannot use the iPhoto cards; use the Mail Photo stationary instead, once the mail panel opens.
For some reason mailing using iPhoto as Mailer works for me only, if I am mailing from my iCloud accoun,t and if Mail is set to use the iCloud account by default.

When I email from iPhoto, separate emails with a photo on each, the email received on an iPad shows the first picture opened is shown in all the other emails.

When I email from iPhoto separate emails with a different photo on each, the email on my iPad opens each photo attachment as the same photo sent on the first email. This only happens when I use iPhoto to email. My daugther was sending pictures this way and at first it worked but now it does this same thing. Any suggestions?

First try this: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and do 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.
Click to view full size
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.
Second, if the above fails launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the problem persists.

Iphoto doesn t start. Message received: Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable

Iphoto doesn t work. Message received: Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable.
I removed it and I tried several times to reinstall it without success.

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
