HT5361 Unable to send photos. Message...Username/password not combatible.

Unable to send photos. Message...username/password not combatable. I'm computer dense...what next?

Have a current backup before proceeding here. Time Machine or otherwise.
If no outbound messages are sent... There are two different server definitions and two different places where you need a user and a password, the first and most obvious setting within mail is for receiving mail; the POP or IMAP setting. Everybody gets that one. To get to the credentials and the password used to send mail messages (the one that folks don't find as easily), Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select the account > switch the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) to "Edit SMTP Server List", then find the Yahoo SMTP server entry, then fix the password there.
Here's the Apple mail troubleshooting information.
If that fails, remove the entry and re-add it.
If smaller messages are sent correctly and larger messages are blocked, Yahoo may be restricting the size of the message(s) being sent. Try smaller messages as a test, or use a file sharing service to transfer the images, or maybe wait for the OS X Yosemite Mail Drop feature.
PS and FWIW, this message was originally posted in the OS X Server forum, and you're not running OS X Server here — OS X Server includes various network services, including a mail server — a mail server is what Yahoo is running here, but OS X Server allows folks to configure and run a mail server locally on a Mac Mini or some other Mac configured as a server. Your MacBook Air would then connect into that server, in addition to or in place of the Yahoo server. Like most other mail servers, the mail server within OS X Server can be configured to block larger messages, too.

Unable to send photo messages

I am not able to send out photo messages via text with my gzone commando. It says it is unable to send and that there are too many messages in my outbox. Help! It's very frustrating.

Do you have an active 3G data connection when you attempt to send the picture messages?
Are you getting an error message saying the memory is full or something?

Unable to send photos because server doesn't recognize username/password combo

Have a MacBook Air using iPhoto 9.5.1 and operating system OS X 10.9.3.
I have tried to share photos with email using my Yahoo account. I receive the following message whenever I attempt to send a photo "username/password not recognized by email server."
I have gone into my accounts numerous times in System preferences. My username/password combo is recognized there. I have also changed my password on Yahoo and in my accounts. But I still receive the above message.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Am unable to send photos by email or message

Unable to send photos by email or message

Hi,
Ok, adding your email address to my contact list didn't change anything.
The good news is that your email from your gmail account did get through. It was marked as junk mail but when I declared it safe, the photo appeared.
I looked into the message content for the ones that didn't work and I think the photo is actually still part of the data. It is as though the message header has been corrupted somehow. Since it happens with your service provider but not mine, it suggests that your service provider is perhaps corrupting the header.
I'm not sure how we can get this resolved as the fault could be with Adobe, your service provider or other service providers.
I think the workaround of using your gmail account is probably the best way to go.
You do get a lot of snow there. I live in the UK on the south coast near Southampton. All I have seen is a very light dusting of snow and that quickly disappeared. There were a few local accidents due to the icy conditions. I supposed that the snow is part of your life there - for us it is an exception and so we are not prepared for it.

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:
Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
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).
And...voila' (I hope)

In iPhoto, when i try to email a photo using "share", I keep getting"username/password" not recognized. It used to work automatically before.

I cannot email a photo using iPhoto "share. I keep getting "username/password not recognized". I used to use this function all the time but all of a sudden, I keep getting this message.

In iPhoto, open Preferences (under iPhoto in the menu bar) and click the "Accounts" tab on top. Make sure your email account(s) is/are set up there correctly, just as they are in Apple's Mail. Make sure the password in included.

IPhone 4 IOS 7 - unable to send photos via text

I have been unable to send photos via text since updating to IOS7. All of my settings are up to date and this problem occurs on wifi, 3G and makes no difference if I send the photo via message first or from my camera. I have read all the troubleshooting guides and nothing has provided a permanent solution. Resetting the network seems to work for a limited time before the photos come up with the same "not delivered" icon again.
Does anyone know why the reset would work and then stop working if I haven't switched my phone off?
Thanks

You may have to backup and restore through iTunes. Have you contacted your carrier about this since this feature is carrier-provided?

Unable to send photos/videos or share contacts using iMessage

I have recently been unable to send photos/videos or share contacts using iMessage on my iPhone 4S, although I can send simple text messages. Everything else seems to be functioning as expected. I have tried quitting messages, resetting my network settings and rebooting the phone, none of which has worked. Any suggestions?

You mention iMessage, then you mention text message. Are these messages you are sending in a blue bubble? If so, then they are iMessages. As far as adding content. That would make it an MMS, and you would have to add data to that. You need to either have cellular data on, or be on Wi-Fi for that to work, and to have MMS turned on in the Message Settings. If they are regular text message MMS, then you also have to have a SMS/MMS plan from your carrier.

Tired of getting "Protocol layer was unable to send a message" - Update to 10.2

I'm extremly glad to report that RIM has finally resolved the ongoing "protocol layer" failure to send email from certain types of accounts.
A while back they post this not working solution:
KB33736 "Protocol layer was unable to send a message" when replying to an email on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone
Resolution: Upgrade to BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.1.0.1465 or higher. Contact the wireless provider to confirm availability.
10.1.0.1465 or higher FAIL
But 10.2 WORKS - Woohoo

there are two articles from the public knowledge base about that error, for very different reasons.
KB33736 "Protocol layer was unable to send a message" when replying to an email on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone
KB34009 "MessageStatus: Protocol layer was unable to send a message" is displayed when sending email with an attachment on a BlackBerry 10 smartphone
The search box on top-right of this page is your true friend, and the public Knowledge Base too:

Error Message - Unable to send text message!

Hi, hope someone can help me with this.
I have started getting this error when i send a text from PC Suite via my 7610. The text sends properly and this error shows up.
Setup:
Windows XP Pro - Service Pack 2
PC Suite Version - 6.70.22
Bluetooth connection.
Started out of the blue with no warning.
I have tried removing the battery from the phone and putting it back in. I uninstalled and reinstalled the suite.
Any help Appreciated.

i had the same problem. sending an sms with the pc suite produces the unable to send text message error. i tried removing SMSsync, PC support form the phone as described in the forum. None of this helped for me.
eventually uninstalled pc suite from the pc. then ran the pc suite cleaner, it can be found here:
http://europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,8764,75877,00.html
reinstalled the pc suite and that solved the problems
sms's sent via pc suite are now sending successfully

HT201342 unable to change e mail address to new iCloud address. When following change instructions the drop down on the SEND NEW MESSAGES ON does not have the iCloud option. ( I have mountain Lion)

attemped instructions in Mountain Lion to change my e mail address to the recommended i cloud.com address.

How do I change it??

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

Photos 10.10.3 will not let me play or move my videos and keeps sending a message saying "can not find file". What do I do to get the videos back?

Photos 10.10.3 will not let me play or move my videos and keeps sending a message saying "can not find file". What do I do to get the videos back? It is only during videos that I previously uploaded off my phone. It loads them and tells me how long they are but when I go to press play it says can not find file. I have restarted my computer, what else can I do?

Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem.
