How do i Email to a group saved in Contacts using my iPad?

I have several groups saved in Contacts on my Mac, iPhone and iPad. How do access these groups using the iPad so that I can send emails to the group?

Thanks for mentioning MailShot.
Actually MailShot can send email with attachments, too. It works by creating a special contact that can send email to the entire group from your favourite apps, just like it was built in. It is also the only app we know of that can FORWARD an email with all it's attachments intact.
You can try it out at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mailshot-pro-group-email-done/id445996226?ls=1&mt =8.

Help! I recently upgraded to OS 10.9.4 from 10.6.8, and now when I want to send an email to a group in my contacts I am no longer able to select the group as a whole. I have to select each address individually. This can't be right.

Help! I recently upgraded to OS 10.9.4 from 10.6.8, and now when I want to send an email to a group in my contacts I am no longer able to select the group as a whole. I have to select each address individually. This can't be right. With 10.6.8 I used to be able to double click on the name of the group and they would all be selected. I've also noticed that my address book is now called "contacts." Thanks in advance for your help.

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.4 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
     Reinstall the 10.9.4 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo).

The iPad doesn't seem to want to set up an email for a "group" in my contacts. On my iMac, when I type the name of a group, the email addresses of everyone in the group appear in the "To" line of a new message. Not so with the iPad. Help?

Apparently Groups are not supported in the Mail App on the iPad. Read this thread and see Michael Morgan's post for a workaround.

Why can't i send an email from a group in my contacts

why can't i send an email from a group in my contacts? In the address bar of my email just shows up the title of my group...

You are not doing anything wrong. Unfortunately, that's just the way that the built in mail app works. It really is a basic no frills mail app with not much to offer compared to other apps.
There are third party apps that let you create groups and email to those groups. I don't use either of these, but I've seen them recommended here in the past.

Sounds like you are not in Mountain Lion and have updated to Pages 5 on Mavericks.
Images in cells ahs been removed by Apple along with over 90 other features in Pages 5.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

How do I send emails to a group in my contact list? from my iPad

How do I send an email to a group on my iPad?

There's a functional workaround to send Group emails that takes some setup, and a copy-paste. But it's easier than any one-by-one solution cooked up without a 3rd-party app. Here's the way:
STEP ONE:
Go to Settings>General>Keyboard-->Shortcuts
Add a new Shortcut by typing in the full email addresses in the "Phrase" field, separated by comma and space; type in the few letters representing this "Phrase" in the "Shortcut" field.
STEP TWO:
In the email app, IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL, type in the letters for the Shortcut and space. Then Highlight-->Copy this text and paste it into the To: Field. (Obviously: Delete this text in email body; and use CC: or BCC: fields as desired.)
Regrettably, you CANNOT just type the Shortcut in the address fields as it gets lobbed into one address.
This "No Group Email Functionality" rates a #FAIL by Apple. One of the few.

You'll have to add each recipient individually in the To field.
A workaround is to use Mail and one of it's photo stationary themes.

This will let you use the Groups from your Address Book.

How do i save Images from the "Saved Photos" folder in my iPad

I have no idea how to save the images that i save while surfing the net or emails.
They are saved to a folder in my IMAGE build in app called "Saved Photos", but i don't know how to get them out of my iPad.
Does anyone know how do do this?
Thanks

Very simple, open up my computer and the iPad icon should be displayed just like any other drive. When you open it up it will than say internal storage. then a folder, mine is labeled DCIM like many camera folder names, that is where all your saved photos are. i think you can only copy them from the folder to your hard drive, and you have to delete them on the iPad. i guess you can say it treats it like a huge flash drive but just with your saved photos

HT4946 how can I make sure that itunes saved my contacts and photos on last back up ?

How can I make sure that itunes saved contacts and photos FROM my iPhone on last back up ?, i just bought this phone and store transfer contacts from old non-smart phone and dont want to loose them !

Look in whatever software on your computer handles your contacts and photos. Neither will be part of the backup file. This may be of help:

How to stop email addresses from being added to contacts

hofw do you stop email addresses from sent emails from being added automatically to contacts?

No. They are not being created by the phone. They are being created by your mail system, whether that is Exchange, Yahoo, Google, etc. They all have settings to automatically create contacts from people you correspond with. There is no setting on the phone to control this. Check the settings for your mail account with or talk to your IT department.

Can i MAKE a group, from unrelated contacts ON the iPad.

I know how to form a "new group" in the address book, on my parent MacBook.
However, i am away for a week, and would love to be able to fashion a new contact group, from EXISTING contacts, ON the I pad directly.
I cant seem to find a mechanism on the ipad to do so,
Nor can i on my iphone's contact list.
Thanks,
Jesse

Allow me to suggest a workaround that is quite handy, and that I use to send emails to groups using my iPad. I use the iPhone app called Pastebot ($2.99) to create a library of my frequently used groups. In essence, I set up the list of email addresses in each group as a clipping. Then when I need to send that group an email, I open Pastebot and simply select the group clipping, go to the Mail app and paste the selected group clipping into the TO line of the email.
Works great, assuming you don't have too many groups.

Is there a way to create different groups for my contacts using the installed contact app

I am trying to make a group on my contacts. So that it's easier to just make messages to people and not having to make group messages every single time. For example, making a group for a sports team so that I can just message everyone in the group at once.

No not possible but you can create contact groups at www.icloud.com and if you have contact synced thru cloud the groups you make at www.icloud.com will appear on your phone

HT4527 How can I install my iTunes on a new computer using my iPad or iPhone because my previous computer crashed?

My old computer crashed and I can't figure out how to install my iTunes account on my new computer with my iPad or iPhone.

ipad/iphone is not a storage/bakcup device. The sync is one way - computer to ipad/iphone. the exception is itunes purcahses: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.
