Emailing Photos Hangs at "Resizing" in Apple Mail

I noticed this morning that, if I try to email a group of photos from Aperture (using Share --> Email) with Apple Mail as my email client, Mail will hang and show "Resizing ####.jpg" in the status bar (with ### representing the file name). If I mail the photos individually, or in smaller groups, I don't get this message and Mail functions normally. I first noticed this when I tried to send 10 photos in the same email. When Apple Mail hangs with the "...resizing..." status, it's really hung...I have to Force Quit the Mail application.
I never saw this behavior in iPhoto (I've just started using Aperture) and am wondering if this is an Aperture problem.
I'm running the latest version of Aperture on a brand new iMac 27" with 16GB of RAM. The photos I'm sending were taken with my camera set to Raw, and I'm sending processed versions of them.
Has anyone seen this behavior?

I don't normally reply to my own posts, but thought I should in this case....
I missed this when I searched before, but this problem has been around for a while, I guess. The newest thread in this linked discussion is November:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4153083?start=0&tstart=0
I've submitted a bug report to Apple.

HT201250 Hi, how do I restore my email from Time Machine, I use Apple Mail, I can't see a folder marked "email" Thanks

Hi, How do i restore my email when it has been backed up in a time capsule, I can see files for photos, documents etc etc, but nothing that says email. i use Mavericks and Apple Mail
Thanks - fist time using this so forgive me if I havent given enough info

The simpliest way to restore Apple Mail emails is to make sure that Apple Mail is the active application running on your OS X Desktop. Then click the Time Machine icon on the OS X menu bar, and then, select the "Enter Time Machine" option. Time Machine should open with a number of Apple Mail windows with copies of your email messages over time.

How can I email over 200 notes from my Apple Mail to that of a friend?

I helped someone recreate all their notes to work in Apple Mail and now simply need to get the notes from my Mac to their Mac. More details below. Thanks in advance. I've searched extensively on a solution to this and haven't found anything.

Dragging/dropping all the notes into a new email doesn't work.
Seems like I can attach to an email a single note at a time, but there are related issues:
          -- The resulting attachments have an email-style icon which I find a little strange.
           -- If I try to open such a sample note attachment in my draft email, it sometimes works (showing a proper, yellow note), it sometimes gives me a "Mail was unable to save the attachment..." error, and it sometimes opens it in a raw text format showing all the related codes/data.
           -- At one point, I edited a note I had attached to a draft email and the attachment automatically appeared in my notes list even though I hadn't dropped it in there.
I don't see any other export option. "Archiving" isn't like exporting - it removes them from my Reminders/Notes view and archives them (for me) on a remote GMail server, it seems.
I don't know what to make of the "Forward" option -- it takes all the text from all the notes and drops it into the body of a single email. Is there a way for that to be rebuilt into individual notes for the recipient?
I don't have to use an iOS device for this, do I? I can if needed. I don't see a quick way to email many notes off my iphone to the recipient's email address. (I have iCloud; the recipient does not - they're doing all syncing via USB cable only.)

I assume this is a 1st gen and not the newer models (black box). In any case it is not meant to be used as a storage device and thus no easy way to retrieve

Why is email disappearing from my inbox in Apple mail?

I will open an email, read it then close Mail, or not. Either way, when I go back to Apple Mail to re-read the message it is gone. I've lost an extremely important message. I've searched Junk and trash, all of my accounts and the message is gone. This has happened with email coming from several sources.

Craig,
Where did you find this?
Is Settings the same as Mail Preferences?
I cant find the "Mail Days to Sync" option.

Dropping a photo from iPhoto into an Apple Mail stationary pane placeholder

With regard to Apple Mail and the stationary pane templates, why is that sometimes I can drop a picture in from iPhoto '11 in the placeholder, and other times I cannot? Sometimes some photos will work and others won't. Other times no photos will work. And still other times all photos work. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason as to when it works and when it doesn't. What am I doing wrong? I checked with the iPhoto community and they seem to think it's a Mail issue.

Next time that happens check to see if you can drag the photo to the Desktop from iPhoto. You can try repairing the permissions in the library via iPhoto as follows:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - apply option #1.

Can I import 5 years of email from Win Outlook Express to Apple Mail?

This looks like a large problem.
I'm trying to import 5 yrs worth of email, all categorized in sub-directories within the WIN version of Outlook Express 6, into the current version of Apple Mail.
Can this be done? If so, how?
While Outlook Express is listed on the import panel of Apple Mail, I believe it means the Mac version of OE from MS Office 4. I have that, but it's not installed.
Could I install it, somehow import the WIN OE 6 mail into that, and THEN import into Apple Mail?
Or is there (we live in hope) an easier way?
1000 thanks!

You may use O2M, or you may import your mail into Thunderbird on the PC, then use Eudora Mailbox Cleaner to import that into Apple’s Mail.

Apple Mail moved all my email from my hotmail account to apple Mail

I have already stopped my new mail in hotmail to get deleated and sent to apple Mail.
I want to know if it's possible to sent the mail that was sent to apple Mail back to my hotmail account
Thanks

It is usual, but not absolutely necessary, for emails to be downloaded from server to TB mail account Inbox and then delete them off the server.
I personally, delete all but the last 30 days off the server, so that between my monthly backup and the emails on the server, I could retrieve most if not all mail in the event of a loss.
You could get the emails back on the server, but you may notice that all the dates seem to change to the date when you put them back on the server.

Import email archives from Outlook .pst to Apple Mail

I'm (finally) switching everything over from Windows to Mac, and want to know the easiest way to transfer years of email archives (sent and saved) from an Outlook .pst file into Apple Mail. I'm not using Entourage, but I have it, if that's the best conduit, but in the end, I want to use Apple Mail.

O2M formally known as Outllook2Mac or I believe there is an add-on for Entourage from Microsoft that provides for importing Outlook .pst files.
After importing the .pst files into Entourage, you can use Mail's Import Mailboxes feature selecting Entourage as the email client to import mailboxes/messages from.

How Can I Email Photos from iPhoto using Yahoo Web Mail?

Is there anyway to hook the email functionality in iPhoto up to a web based email account?
On my old PC Yahoo had a little helper application that would intercept calls to the email program and redirected them to Yahoo. Yahoo does not seem to have a similar helper app for mac.
Can anyone think of a way to connect iPhoto's email button up to Yahoo or other web based mail?
Thanks!

Kevin
There is one for GMail, but none for Yahoo, AFAIK.
As you're using 10.5, If you use the extended Open or Attach dialogue (with Column View) you can scroll to the bottom of the Shortcuts and find the Media browser there. Select any pic you want from there.

500 Emails Vanished During IMAP Transfer in Apple Mail

Hello,
I was trying to transfer 500+ emails from one host to another using IMAP. I set up two accounts, one that linked to the old host where the emails were and another one for the new inbox on the new host. I realize now that I should have chosen to use POP for the account of origin, because I highlighted all the messages in the box and drug them into the new one. Mail said that it was transfering them, and as it did each one, they were vanishing from the inbox. The problem is - they never showed up in the new one! Now all the emails have vanished and I have no idea how to recover them. The old host says they don't keep backups of emails. Is there any way I can retrive them through the software or on my machine somewhere? Where did they go?
This is for a client. I really don't want to have to tell them I lost hundreds of their emails during the transfer process. Any help would be VERY MUCH appreciated.
Thanks!

If the receiving server has a webmail interface, log in to it and look for the messages. Look in all mailboxes, not just the ones where you expect to find them. If they aren't there, and if you didn't back them up locally before the attempted transfer, then they're lost.

Something gets corrupted then email won't send out of Apple mail

I believe something gets corrupted in Mail and then won't allow email to be sent. I had realized this problem seveal months ago on my Sister in law's Macbook. I had created a new mail file and noticed I had this problem with sending mail. So I'd deleted that one and created a new mail file. Same problem, I started over again. This time it seemed to work Well that was until arond April. She said she was getting the message that mail could not be sent out of mail several months ago. Checking her Outbox, she has messages that go back to April that never sent.
I don't know what keeps happening to Mail and whhy after months of functioning correctly, it will suddenly just stop working, that is, mail will no longer send. She has no problems receiving it. Only sending. Her ISP is Comcast so I wouldn't think it would be their problem, but I don't know what else it could be.
Looking for ideas!
Thanks,
Jeff

Here's the thing. I have all the correct setting from Comcast and everytime I've setup Mail on her Macbook I've entereted them correctly. Like i said, it had been working, up until April. Oh when I say created a new mail file I mean that I created a new Account rather than changed the settings in the existing account. That will create a whole new mail file.
The message she gets is:
The server “smtp.comcast.net” cannot be contacted on the default ports.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
I believe that is her smtp server. I don't have her laptop in front of me, since she lives 300+ miles away. i don't understand how something that works for months at a time would suddenly just stop working all together. She had been able to send mail from last Christmas until April. That's why I assumed something on her systrem had corrupted.
Thanks,
Jeff

How do I put a recent photo on my Apple Mail email program?

I am using OS 10.3.9
This question is for Apple MAIL email program and the emails that I send from my Desktop, not from the .Mac site.
Several years ago I did what was necessary to have my photo put automatically on each outgoing email that I send. (I realize that not everyone can see that photo; that is not the problem.)
PROBLEM: I now have more recent photos and would like to take off the old photo and replace it with a more recent photo but I forgot the procedure for doing this and can find it nowhere!
Please, can someone write down the steps that I must go through to take off the old photo and replace it with a new photo?
Lorna

Dear Mulder — I went to the Help and found the following instructions:
"If someone using a .Mac mail account sets up his or her account to share pictures, when you view a message from that person in Mail you'll see the shared picture. The picture is not sent in the message itself; instead, when you view the message, Mail looks for the picture on the .Mac server. You can only view shared pictures from a .Mac account using Mail and webmail.mac.com."
However: Although I belong to .Mac and do have a .Mac email address, I rarely use webmail.mac.com. Any mail that goes there (almost nothing at all) gets forwarded to my Desktop email account. I use the Apple Mail program on my Desktop, not at the website. Would the the picture be visible then? If I send an email to myself I do see the photo... but am I the only one seeing it?

How to use Apple Mail to send outgoing emails only?

Hello,
I haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for elsewhere on the interwebs.
I want to be able to set up the Apple Mail app on my Mac to send outgoing emails only from my Gmail account. I use the Gmail website and my iPhone for sending/receiving emails and I don't want or have a need for all of my Gmail emails to be downloaded into the Apple Mail app or for new emails to appear in the Mail app as they come in.
I just want to be able to send outgoing emails from the app so that I can send photos directly from iPhoto using the Email button. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Great news, thanks!

Emailing photos from yahoo mail via iphoto

I would like to be able to send photos directly from iphoto using the email button but i would need to send the photos from my yahoo mail account as I don't have apple mail. Is it possible to link yahoo somehow to my ibook so that when I click on email photo in iphoto it links to my yahoo account and the mail will be sent from yahoo instead. Do I make any sense at all? If anyone has any idea, please reply in as 'basic' a way as possible - thanks.

The way it works is as follows.
1. You upgrade your free Yahoo Mail account to a Yahoo Mail Plus mail account. (FYI: Google Mail is free internet based email that offers free integration with Apple Mail, called POP access. This integration is what you are paying for with Yahoo.)
2. You obtain instructions from Yahoo on how to use Apple Mail with your Yahoo Mail account. They give you the server information (there is a server for outgoing mail and a server for incoming mail) and you supply your Yahoo user name and password. Open Apple Mail and go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts to supply this information.
3. You can then send and receive your Yahoo email through the Apple Mail program instead of going to Yahoo through your web browser. You can also use your Mac's address book now for sending email.
4. Most importantly to you, you can now click the Email Photo button in iPhoto. iPhoto will open Apple Mail with the photo attached, and you can then send the photos to whoever you want. The email will appear as though you sent it through the web based Yahoo mail.
Hope this helps. Sorry if it was too elementary, just trying to clarify.
