How does one email a video from iPhoto

how does one email a video from iPhoto

One doesn't.
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 mentioned, 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.

  • In Pages 5 when I try to attach a pages document to an email it gives me 2 folders and 4 files ???  How does one email a pages document.

    How does one email a pages document? In pages 5 when I try to attach a pages document to a gmail email it gives me 2 folders and 4 other files to choose from. 

    Sounds like you are using Gmail.
    Pages 5 uses a zipped package of files as its format. 3rd party servers don't understand the format and show it as the component parts.
    Use Mail toenail the file or zip the .pages document before sending.

  • How does one print single photos using iPhoto. I keep getting an error message:No Available Themes

    How does one print single photos using iPhoto. I keep getting an error message:No Available Themes

    You need to reinstall iPhoto. To reinstall iPhoto delete the current application and, on all Macs with Snow Leopard or earlier installed, all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the:
    HD/Library/Receipts folder (10.5 and earlier)
    or from the /var/db/receipts/  folder (10.6) .
    Deleting receipts is not necessary if your Mac came with Lion or later preinstalled.
    Then install iPhoto from the source it came from originally.

    How does one remove temporary files from Safari?  A friend logged on to her Facebook account using my iMac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and Safari 6.1.6.  Now I can't remove her e-mail address from my computer.  When I open Facebook her address shows in the user button.  I do not have a Facebook account.  It was suggested to me that I try clearing temporary files from Safari but I can't find anything that tells me how to do this.  Are temporary files the same as the cache?  It also was suggested that I try clearing Safari cache.  How do I do that?

    Check Safari/Preferences/Passwords to see if the Facebook account is there. If so, select it and remove it. If you are still having problems, Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. If that doesn't work, Safari/Reset Safari.

  • What is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    what is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    Size is not the issue. In the old iPhoto you used to be able to share a video and it would compress it to fit an email friendly size. It doesn't do that anymore from iPhoto. I miss that feature. I have to export the video from iPhoto to my desktop then take into the old Quicktime 7 to share in email. Crazy.
    It shouldn't be that complicated. I shouldn't have to find a work around. I guess apple wants to put  you in a box so you have to do it "their way" via uploading to iWeb or iCloud instead of emailing video.
    I don't like those options being taken away.  While the quality may suffer by compressing for email, it is still the most direct and unconvoluted way of sharing something fairly quickly. I don't want to have to post to YouTube or Vimeo or iCloud and send a link. Just compress the video and hit send in an email and be done with it.

  • How does one upload a file from flex to a cfc

    How does one upload a file from flex to a cfc?   Can you do the file upload via remote object? I usually do uploads cia cfm but prefer the asnc capabilities of remote object calls.

    Hi,
    The issue here is myFile. For flex we need to pass this name as paramenter becuase it's not html form item like:
    <cfcomponent>
        <cffunction name="uploadFile" access="remote" output="false" returntype="void">
        <cfargument name="file" required="Yes" type="any">
            <cffile action="upload" filefield="#arguments.file#" destination="C:\temp\" nameconflict="makeunique">
        </cffunction>
    </cfcomponent>
    From flex I'm getting the file using fileReference like:
    private function browseAndUpload():void
                    fileReference = new FileReference();
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT,fileReference_Select);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.CANCEL,fileReference_Cancel);
                    fileReference.browse();
                private function fileReference_Select(event:Event):void
                    fileReference.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,fileReference_Progress);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,fileReference_Complete);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,onLoadError);
                    //fileReference.upload(request);
                    fileName = fileReference.name;
                    myFile.htmlText = fileReference.name;
                    SM_RO.importNSA();
    filerReference have an upload method to upload the file but I can't use that becuase I need to process my upload with my cfc.
    I'm getting an error:
    Failed to import the file. The cffile action="upload" requires forms to use enctype="multipart/form-data". Please also make sure the file is not open.
    I can't find the way to setup the enctype becuase again i can have html form items in flex, or I can?
    Thanks
    Johnny

  • Dear community, what to do when iMovie does not automatically updates video from iPhoto. I've closed and reopen, restarted... still no good

    Dear community, what to do when iMovie does not automatically updates video from my iPhoto. Usually it will automatically generate new content, but now it's stuck 3 days behind the latest new iPhoto entries... I've restarted all programs, restarted the computer... what else?

    Ezy,
    I'm not sure what recourse you really have. My expectation would be that Apple is on the hook to warranty your computer, but they only warrant the machine you've got.
    The issue of exchange is fully in the hands of the dealer. If it were Apple, they would likely have had a longer return/exchange period (2 weeks is standard in the US, and I think they use the same timeframe internationally), and there have been some reports of people getting machines exchanged even if they were just outside the 2-week period.
    However, with Apple dealers, I think they are a little more concerned about old inventory. Who knows what Apple does when you give them back a last-gen Macbook. They probably sell it at a markdown, but even marked down, they still get a profit (most likely). When an authorized reseller gets stuck with an old machine, they probably have to sell it at a loss. Thus, I would expect resellers to be more afraid of holding onto discontinued models.
    That said, if they do a lot of business, they should appreciate the value of customer loyalty: it's usually better to lose money on one purchase than lose a customer (and all their future purchases). If you're a regular customer there, you could point out that disappointment could cause you to go to a competitor. That's playing a bit of hardball though.
    However, there is maybe an upshot to all of this... The new 13" model did not get the quad-core CPU's.. And it lost its dedicated graphics adapter. I've seen a decent number of people complaining that the new 13" model is worse than the previous one (the one I'm assuming you've gotten). So it might not be such a bad thing after all.

  • How does one update Subtemple value from Yes to No?

    Greetings! In the instructions of a published problem statement (Note ID: 808571.11) there is a line that says:
    "c) Check if the subtemplate is set to NO. Update it to NO if it is set to Yes."
    How does one update the Subtemplate value from Yes to No? In edit configuration, I do not see a Subtemplate value column.
    Many thanks in advance fr your suggestions.
    Tom

    With all due respect ... I do not see how one can change the Subtemplate value from Yes to No. When I query the offending Template, the Subtemplate column is not displayed in bold, indicating to me that it can not be updated. Clicking on Edit Configuration, doe not provide an ability to change the value either.
    As best I can determine, one needs to 1) query up the template
    2) download the rtf file(s)
    3) end date the template
    4) create a new template and then set the Subtemplate value to No.
    And the same steps appear to be required in order to add or update a template Description.
    Which raises the question, Why can this not be done by editing the configuration?
