Emailing through iPhoto 11
I've tried emailing through iPhoto 11 and have found that my emails will get to email addresses like gmail, etc. but will not go to people using Mail on the Mac. It seems to me if my preferences were entered wrong it wouldn't go anywhere.
I've sent to people who use both gmail and Mail. And sent it at the same time, same photos, etc. They get the email that goes to gmail, but it never shows up on Mail. I've sent it to myself this way and the same thing happens. I've check through my server and it doesn't show up there either.
Any ideas? It just seems strange.

What's your email client?
If you don't like the new ways that iPhoto handles emailing then you can access the old way with a small change in how you work:
1. Drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Mail icon in the Dock. Or the Icon of your Preferred Client
or
2. Use the Photo browser in Mail, in your preferred client if it has one - or any Media browser in the entire OS

You can then resize the image in the iPhoto Window

Finally, you can make a simple OS Service to to automate the procedure. For more on this have a read of this:

Sharing photos via email through iPhoto
Hi, I've sent friends photos via email using the 'share' section of the iPhoto and I can't find a 'sent' forlder there and they don't appear in my normal email. How can I check what I've sent to whom when sharing photos this way.
Hi Ralph9430,
Thank you for your reply.I am using a MacBook Pro and sadly it doens't work the same as the iPad. However, in following your directions, I hadn't realised that in the sent box I could select specific email accounts I thought it was one generic folder for all, so, I've learned that from you! -
Any way to find a record of photos emailed through iPhoto?
I emailed some photos of driveway work that needs to be done to my management company, using the iPhoto sharing/email link. I am trying to find a record of this email but it does not appear in my Mail app or anywhere on the computer. Is this email available only to the recipient?

I have difficulty sending photos through iPhoto 11 often get a connection error. When I go to my email and copy the photos in email the emails go out right away and never seem to have a connection problem? Why did they cahnge the process for sending photos form iphoto?
It is an addition option some people like and other do not (I do not) -- to use it as always is trivial - in the iPhoto preferences set Apple Mail as the e-mail client

Are you using Yosemite and not apple's Mail app? Then you may need to set up an app-specific password: See the post below:

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).

Blank Error message while trying to email in iPhoto
I am trying to email a photo through iphoto, I get all the way to the send button, after I click send, an error window opens with no message so I have no idea why the action is not successfully completing. This happens everytime I try to email a photo. Does anyone know what could be wrong?
Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and 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.
Click to view full size
3 - reboot.
4 - 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.

How to share videos through iPhoto
I have a Mac BookPro using version 9.5.1 of iPhoto. I haven't been able to share videos through iPhoto. The error message just says " Videos cannot be emailed." What's the best way to share videos?
Simply, sharing video via email is not advisable.
Many email services have an attachment limit of 20mb and some a limit of 10mb. As emails are sent through an array of relays, the effective limit is the smallest file size allowed on any of the relays. That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
Then there's the whole issue of Codecs and not all machines will have the codecs to play all videos. Plus, folks with slower connections can find it very inconvenient to download large video files.
Finally, sharing video from iPhoto via email is not supported. All that gets you is the Movie thumbnail. If you feel you must share via email then you'll need to export the video first, and attach that. Use the File -> Export command and set the kind to Original.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Other than that your options include:
Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material online. That will avoid the codec issues mentions, and the person can still download the video file if they wish.
Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they download the material to their machines to view.

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:

I can email but IPhoto does not recognize my server to enable me to send email photos. Any advice? N
I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes. Now it's dad and husband, every time! Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails.
And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered". So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point. I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions. (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck. I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me) -
Whenever i try to email with iphoto i get a pop-up saying THE EMAIL SERVER DIDNT RECOGNISE USERNAME/PASSWORD COMBINATION
Are you sending from your iCloud Mail address? And do you have two-step verification enabled?
If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.

Can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013
can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, in other words unable to access mails through outlook or from other Applications services.
needed RCA ... plz help..Hi,
From your description, you can send and receive messages only when you use OWA after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
In your case, I recommend you create a new test mailbox in your Exchange 2013 and check if you can send and receive messages on Outlook. If yes, it is recommended to create a new profile to solve this issue.
Hope this can be helpful to you.
Best regards,
Amy Wang

I am unable to send emails through yahoo on my ipad 4 wifi, just starting over the weekend. My 3 other non-yahoo email accounts are working fine on my ipad. When I try to send an email from the yahoo account, I receive the message that the connection to the outgoing mail server "apple.smtp.mail.yahoo" failed. I can send email through yahoo just fine on the web and on my computer through Thunderbird.
Yahoo's been having persistently random issues for months. You can try just waiting it out, or delete and readd your yahoo account. When my accounts were affected I just used webmail to access my yahoo accounts until it cleared up.
Chances are it's all on their end and really all you can do is wait it out.
