Exporting to iphoto from email

I'm running Os 10.8.2; mail 6.1 and iphoto 9.4 on an imac and macbook air.  I can not get phot attachments in an email to get moved to iphoto.  It worked a couple of days ago but when I upgraded the iphoto software it doesn't work now.  I can import from downloads, etc but the "hold and save" button next to the email doesn't do what its supposed to.  I've tried this many times with different emails and it still doesn't work on either machine.

I would suggest you reboot while simultaneously holding down the Command - R keys to boot into the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition.  When there, enter Disk Utility and run "Repair Disk" on the Mac Hard Drive, and then run "Repair Permissions" twice.  Then reboot into Mountain Lion's partition.  That may help.
Hope this helps

    I downloaded new apple software and now I cannot save pictures from email directly to iphoto.

    Reset your iTouch:
    > Hold the Home & Power button for 10 second til the screen goes black. Wait 3-5 seconds then turn back on.
    > Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset All Settings
    If unsuccessful, do a normal restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    Restore from back-up

    trying to save image attachment from email to iPhoto

    What is the problem? What does not work?
    Either drag the attachment from the mail to the iPhoto con in the Dock, or ctrl-click the attachment and use the option "Export to iPhoto" from the pop-up menu (in Mail in MacOS X 10.10). Don't remember, if this worked in Mail in Mac OS X (10.5.8), as your signature is showing.

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

  • Is it possible to export a Book from Aperture 3 to iPhoto?

    I shot a wedding for a friend and made a layout of a book on Aperture 3.
    Printed a few books which I thought were beautiful.
    I was wondering if it would be possible to export this book from Aperture (with the layout and photos intact) as a file (editable or read-only), so my friend can import and open it using iPhoto and order more copies of the book through Apple when she pleases.
    Tried Google and couldn't find an answer. Thank you for taking the time.

    How about importing from iPhoto into Aperture 3?
    I have made a photobook in iPhoto and then bought Aperture 3, but I can't find it possible to export the book in a format that I can open in Aperture. Also, when I export the book in size Large or above, iPhoto crashes.

    Using export slide show from iphoto, I am trying to create a DVD of photos and vid clips in large format. The vid clips do not work using burn software. Any idea?

    Have used large format, but using the 'burn' software, I am not getting seamless video quality on DVD even though I am burning at 2* speed. Any ideas? Do I need better software? Or is there a problem with the SuperDrive?

    The date they were taken us in the EXIF data and is included in the export
    However it is trivial to modify it so I doubt that it would hold water in court

  • Export RAW file from iPhoto to Aperture

    I want to start using Aperture 2 for my photo editing, so I need to import a number of RAW photos that are currently stored in iPhoto. This seems like it should be a simple enough process, but the different methods I have attempted have only resulted in a JPG version of the photo being imported.
    I have spent quite a bit of time perusing previous posts and haven't been able to find an answer, so any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

    I don't think there is any reason to export the photos from iPhoto first. Aperture can browse the iPhoto library and will allow you to drag and drop the original files.
    In Aperture:
    1. Pull down File > Show iPhoto Browser.
    2. Find the photos you want, highlight them by Shift+clicking several in a row or Command+clicking discontinuous photos. Make sure the extension on the file corresponds to the type of RAW file your camera shoots (.CR2 for Canon, .NEF for Nikon, etc).
    3. Drag and drop the selected files to the Library icon in the Projects list. This will create a new project called "Untitled Project" that contains your photos.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • How do I save photos from email directly into correct album of iphoto?

    how can I save photos to the correct album in iphoto directly from email?  I've been emailed photos I can't figure out how to save.  Thanks!

    You can drag a photo from the email window onto the Album in the left hand pane of iPhoto and it will be added to that Album.  The photo will be in its own Event but will also be in the Album you dragged it to.

  • How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    Click and hold on the Save button, and a menu appears, listing each attached file’s name along with a Save As button. Select any individual file, and you’ll save just that attachment to disk. But the really nice feature is the final menu item—Add to iPhoto. That’s right; with one button click-and-hold, you can add all of a message’s attached images to iPhoto.

  • Export edited videos from iPhoto

    Hi.
    I found many videos online showing how to export video files from iPhoto, but they always use original files!
    I just imported a video from my iPhone into iPhoto, and cut it. Now I want to export the edited video, but if I drag and drop on the desktop, I end up with a 35 KB file that doesn't work at all. If I reset the changes (undo the cut) and try to drag and drop, everything work fine and I get the full video of 24 MB.
    How can I export the edited file?

    If you want to find all videos/movies very quickly in iPhoto create a Smart Album with the criteria:  Photo is Movie.
