Help with email function on new iPhoto?

When I email photos to pc users the words are garbled and the layouts and text don't load in the same format. Is this an issue for others? Solution?
Is there any way to get the old function of sending photos via email where I could add unlimited text? It worked great in the old version!
Also once I select  photos and put them into an email via the email function, I can't delete one if I change my mind..... I have to delete the whole email and start over. Advice? Thanks

Is there any way to get the old function of sending photos via email where I could add unlimited text? It worked great in the old version!
iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> General and choose your preferred email client there.

  • Help with emailing multiple photos in IPhoto using entourage

    I am trying to figure out how to email multiple pictures. When I highlight them and click on the icon for preparing them to email, they will appear in a blank email. I cannot drag them, however to another email out of entourage.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iphoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    I need your help with a decision to use iPhoto.  I have been a PC user since the mid 1980’s and more recently have used ACDSee to manage my photo images and Photoshop to edit them.  I have used ProShow Gold to create slideshows.  I am comfortable with my own folder and file naming conventions. I currently have over 23,000 images of which around 60% are scans going back 75 years.  Since I keep a copy of the originals, the storage requirements for over 46,000 images is huge.  180GB plus.
    I now have a Macbook Pro and will add an iMac when the new models arrive.  For my photos, I want to stay with Photoshop which also gives me the Bridge.  The only obvious reason to use iPhoto is to take advantage of Faces and the link to iMovie to make slideshows.  What am I missing and is using iPhoto worth the effort?
    If I choose to use iPhoto, I am not certain whether I need to load the originals and the edited versions. I suspect that just the latter is sufficient.  If I set PhotoShop as my external editor, I presume that iPhoto will keep track of all changes moving forward.  However, over 23,000 images in iPhoto makes me twitchy and they are appear hidden within iPhoto.  In the past, I have experienced syncing problems with, and database errors in, large databases.  If I break up the images into a number of projects, I loose the value of Faces reaching back over time.
    Some guidance and insight would be appreciated.  I have a number of Faces questions which I will save for later. 

    Bridge and Photoshop is a common file-based management system. (Not sure why you'd have used ACDSEE as well as Bridge.) In any event, it's on the way out. You won't be using it in 5 years time.
    Up to this the lack of processing power on your computer left no choice but to organise this way. But file based organisation is as sensible as organising a Shoe Warehouse based on the colour of the boxes. It's also ultimately data-destructive.
    Modern systems are Database driven. Files are managed, Images imported, virtual versions, lossless processing and unlimited editing are the way forward.
    For a Photographer Photoshop is overkill. It's an enormously powerful app, a staple of the Graphic Designers' trade. A Photographer uses maybe 15% to 20% of its capability.
    Apps like iPhoto, Lightroom, Aperture are the way forward - for photographers. There's the 20% of Photoshop that shooters actually use, coupled with management and lossless processing. Pop over to the Aperture or Lightroom forums (on the Adobe site) and one comment shows up over and over again... "Since I started using Aperture/ Lightroom I hardly ever use Photoshop any more..." and if there is a job that these apps can do, then the (much) cheaper Elements will do it.
    The change is not easy though, especially if you have a long-standing and well thought out filing system of your own. The first thing I would strongly advise is that you experiment before making any decisions. So I would create a Library, import 300 or 400 shots and play. You might as well do this in iPhoto to begin with - though if you’re a serious hobbyist or a Pro then you'll find yourself looking further afield pretty soon. iPhoto is good for the family snapper, taking shots at birthdays and sharing them with friends and family.
    Next: If you're going to successfully use these apps you need to make a leap: Your files are not your Photos.
    The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
    Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
    When you process an image in iPhoto the file is never touched, instead your decisions are recorded in the database. When you view the image then the Master is presented with these decisions applied to it. That's why it's lossless. You can also have multiple versions and waste no disk space because they are all just listings in the database.
    These apps replace the Finder (File Browser) for managing your Photos. They become the Go-To app for anything to do with your photos. They replace Bridge too as they become a front-end for Photoshop.
    So, want to use a photo for something - Export it. Choose the format, size and quality you want and there it is. If you're emailing, uploading to websites then these apps have a "good enough for most things" version called the Preview - this will be missing some metadata.
    So it's a big change from a file-based to Photo-based management, from editing files to processing Photos and it's worth thinking it through before you decide.

  • Help with stored function

    Hi...I was wondering if I could get help with this function. How do i write a function to return hours between a begin date and an end date for an employee. Thanks so much

    select (date2-date1)/24 from dual;date2-date1 is amount of days. Divide it by 24 and what? if you multiply it on 24 you will have a chance to know how many hours between these two dates. :-)Don't forget that a DATE type also includes a time component.I suppose it doesn't matter if you did a difference between two dates. The result is always number of days.

  • New user needs help with Email account questions

    Good day - I have been a 10-year user of Blackberrys (Curve, Bold, and earlier models). Just received a new Q10 for work. Enterprise Outlook synched up and I am getting all emails, calendar, and contact information as in the past. All good with this. Here are my questions I cannot find answers to anywhere:
    1) How can I insert a "signature" with emails I compose from Q10?
    2) How can I delete all emails on Q10, rather than one at a time?
    3) How do I set the Q10 to only delete from phone and not network. In other words I only want to delete emails from the Q10 device and not my PC.
    Appreciate any help. Thank you,
    Chris

    #3 is even easier
    Go to Hub settings, then display and actions and drag down, you'll see the option 'delete'.

  • Can anyone help with email in my old G4 17"  ??

    My G4 17", bought December 2004, is considered an antique by Apple, and no longer supported. (I now mostly use my early 2011 MacBookPro.)
    But the big screen on by G4 is very useful for Sibelius 4, the music program I mostly use (Sibelius 7 in the MacBookPro - but much too fussy for me.)
    Sibelius 4 in the G4 continues to work flawlessly.
    But my email account recently sort of died. It's  POP account (whatever that means). I can no longer receive messages, BUT I can still create and
    send new messages, and of course forward any saved message to myself in the MacBookPro.
    ALSO:  if I have to shut down the G4, it usually reopens with a horizontally divided display, and it usually takes many restarts before it will open
    will a full screen display (seems to reopen correctly more often if left in a cool place overnight.)
    Can anyone help with one or both these issues? I want to keep the G4 going as long as I can.  BTW, I don't use it for browsing anyone, Safari installed,
    because it is now so slow. The MacBookPro handles all that for me.
    Thanks very much, James Johnson in Plattsburgh NY (where it is still cold and wintry, o f--k)

    To RCCHARLES: THANKS !!!!  I did the safe boot start, following the link you provided, then waited, and waited, and waited, and ---
    Well that is interesting. Amoung other things safe boot does:
    -- check and fixes up your file system.  The files system allows you to keep files on your harddrive.
    -- Does all video rendering in software.
    You could have a one time glitch or harddrive is slowly failing.  If you never replaced the harddrive, it is time for a new one.
    You may want to consider getting a new harddrive.  The easiest way is to get an external drive.  No disassembly of the machine is required.
    You need an external Firewire drive to boot a PowerPC Mac computer [ a few G5's will boot from USB ].
    I recommend you do a google search on any external harddrive you are looking at.
    I bought a low cost external drive enclosure. When I started having trouble with it, I did a google search and found a lot of complaints about the drive enclosure. I ended up buying a new drive enclosure. On my second go around, I decided to buy a drive enclosure with a good history of working with Macs. The chip set seems to be the key ingredient. The Oxford line of chips seems to be good. I got the Oxford 911.
    I'd give OWC a call. 1-815-338-8685.

  • Need help with Email on Curve

    Hey there,
    I received this Blackberry Curve 8300 series phone basically as a "hand me down" from family.  I like the phone, but cannot figure out how to set it up to receive my email.
    I've tried going through setup wizard, but get stuck on the "I want to use a work email account with a Blackberry Enterprise Server".  It asks if the administrator provided me with an Enterprise Activation password.
    Here's the problem:  The person who gave me this phone is "technologically challenged", and if she ever did have a password given to her, she doesn't know what it is.  Do I have any way to figure out the password, reset the password, etc.?  How do I go about getting the Enterprise Activation password, and who has that information?
    Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    hutch, you're not ona BES server, you are strictly a personal user.
    Do you have a BlackBerry Data Plan enabled on your account with your carrier or mobile provider?
    You must, in order to get the RIM push email functions you are looking for, as well as addtional BlackBerry data services such as the internet browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger, and much more.
    So, call your carrier and inquire about having the BlackBerry Data Plan added to your account.
    Good luck.

  • Please help with email and synching

    Hoping someone could help with my email!! I have my show filed messages to off. So, when I go in the hub and click my one email account, it shows all my filed emails, such as a folder named old mail. Now, I can fix this by clicking on the dropdown and click inbox, then it shows just my inbox and no filed messages. But if I get a text or FB and enter that in the hub, then click back in the email account it then shows all my filed messages. I just want to see my inbox and that is it! Why is this not working right? I'm on 10.1 and using Microsoft Exchange. I have my old mail being synced, but I don't want to see my old mail. It's literally thousands of emails.  If I unsych old mail then it is fine...but if I want to file something to the old mail file, then the whole thing sychs again and shows all my filed messages.
    I don't know why this is becoming so difficult, but I just can't continue with my email folder showing all of these folders I don't want to see. The email is hard enough without seeing a line of the body of the email and only the subject....this is making it even more crazy for me. I really want to stick it out....but not sure if I can...and I want to. Is this a bug or just the new way BB handles email.  Assuming its a bug being I have filed messages not to be seen.

    Finally, this plug-in is ready for beta testing on www.amazoncanvas.com
    Thank you all who have participated in this program.

  • Help with installing CS3 on new Mac

    Recently purchased new Macs for the department. Cannot install CS3! It asks for the CS2 license number which we have. Turns out it doesn't recognize it. Called customer support and everyone had the same answer, but no solution. I purchased the CS2 corporate license when we had about 6 Macs. Now, we're down to 3 so I purchased the CS3 as individual suites. They said there is no workaround with getting CS3 to recognize the CS2 license! We called 4 different times and talked to 4 different reps who gave us all the same broken-record response. Any help with be greatly appreciated!

    I believe that is essential what the customer service folks were telling my designer. However, both was installed before on the old Macs (CS2 corporate licensed and CS3 individual license) - that's the odd thing, is that it worked before on an older system. All we did was buy new hardware.
    I hope this isn't Adobe's way of making us upgrade to CS4 - lol!

    Hi,
    That's called String Aggregation , and the following site shows many ways to do it:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/StringAggregationTechniques.php
    Which one should you use? That depends on which version of Oracle you're using, and your exact requirements.
    For example, is order importatn? You said the results shoudl include:
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        USA, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, China, India, Korea, Brazil, Mexicobut would you be equally happy with
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        Australia, France, Germany, China, India, Korea, Brazil, Mexico, USA, Canadaor
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        Australia, France, Germany, USA, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, China, India, Korea?

    If you'd like help, post your best attempt, a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements), the results you want from that data, and an explanation of how you get those results from that data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

  • Help with Sort function in Terminal

    Hello all... this is my first post on here as I'm having some trouble with some Termianl commands. I'm trying to learn Terminal at the moment as it is but I would appreciate some help with this one....
    I'm trying to sort a rather large txt file into alphabetical order and also delete any duplicates. I've been using the following command in Terminal:
    sort -u words.txt > words1.txt
    but after a while I get the following error
    sort: string comparison failed: Illegal byte sequence
    sort: Set LC_ALL='C' to work around the problem.
    sort: The strings compared were `ariadnetr\345dens\r' and `ariadnetr\345ds\r'.
    What should my initial command be? What is Set LC_ALL='C'?
    Hope you guys can help?

    Various languages distinct sorting - collation - sequences. 
    The characters can and variously do sort differently, depending on what language is involved. 
    Languages here can include the written languages of humans, and a few settings associated with programming languages.  This is all part of what is known as internationalization and localization, and there are are various documents around on that topic.
    The LC_ALL environment variable sets all of the locale-related settings en-mass, including the collation sequence that is established via LC_COLLATE et al, and the sort tool is suggesting selecting the C language collation.
    Here, the tool is suggesting the following syntax:
    LC_ALL=C sort -u words.txt > words1.txt
    This can also be done by exporting the LC_ALL, but it's probably better to just do this locally before invoking the tool.
    Also look at the lines of text in question within the files, and confirm the character encoding of the file.
    Files can have different character encodings, and there's no reliable means to guess the encoding.  For some related information, see the file command:
    file words.txt
    ...and start reading some of the materials on internationalization and localization that are posted around the 'net. Here's Apple's top-level overview.
    In this case, it looks like there's an "odd" character and probably an å character on that line and apparently the Svenska ariadnetrådens. 
    Switching collation can help here, or - if the character is not necessary - removing it via tr or replacing it via sed can be equally effective solutions. 
    Given it appears to be Svenska, it might work better to switch to Svenska collation thanto  the suggested C collation.
    I think that's going to be sv_SE, which would make the command:
    LC_ALL=sv_SE sort -u words.txt > words1.txt
    This is all generic bash shell scripting stuff, and not specific to OS X.  If you haven't already seen them, the folks over at tldp have various guides including a bash guide for beginners, and an advanced bash scripting guide - both can be worth skimming.  They're not exactly the same as bash on OS X and some specific commands and switches can differ, and as bash versions can differ, but bash is quite similar across all the platforms.

  • Help with photos.  iPhone - iCloud - iPhoto - Email ?????

    I'm a new mac user.   I switched over from Windows.   The process of obtaining photos from iCloud on my iMac seems like a big hassle.  So inconvenient I can't believe anyone would actually design it this way so maybe I'm just ignorant.
    I take a photo with my iPhone.
    The photo is uploaded through iCloud and appears in my iPhoto on my iMac.
    Now I want to attach the photo to an email in the included mail program.
    When I browse for the photo to attach, I look in "Photos" but iPhoto is grayed out.  Why?
    So what I've been doing is saving the picture to my desktop then attaching it that way.
    This seems like a REALLY stupid extra step.  What am I doing wrong here?  
    Thanks in advance.

    When I browse for the photo to attach, I look in "Photos" but iPhoto is grayed out.  Why?
    Is this where you're seeing the grayed out iPhoto in Mail?
    Or are you trying to use the Attach button to add a photo?
    If the photo is in your iPhoto Library on your Mac then you can  select it and click on the Share button at the bottom right of iPhoto
    and then on the Mail button in the next window:
    and add it to a new email that way.
