I can't email photos from iPhoto on Yosemite IMAC

I have recently downloaded Yosemite and now I can't email photos from my IMAC. Has anyone else experienced this and solved the problem?

in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it
OR
IMHO the better solution is to set Apple mail as the email client in the iPhoto preferences

Hi, I can't email photos from iphoto as the email server doesn't recognise my password / username combination... any ideas how / where i fix this?

Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account there. Then add it back again.
If that fails you can set Mail at the email client for iPhoto in iPhoto's General preference pane. Mail is more reliable, gives you a sent copy and has better access to your contacts. It also has photo templates if you need them. They are in the stationary selection menu.

How can I email photos from iphoto '11?

I am having trouble emailing photos from iphoto '11. When I put the recipients address in, it disappears when I click "send" and I get some message about "key chain" and iphoto wants to use my confidential information???? What I ended up doing is dragging and dropping the photo into the email, but I don't want to have to do that all the time. I just got this MacBook Pro and iphoto program so am experiencing a learning curve. I must be doing something wrong. Is it safe to "always allow" this "key chain" info?
Thanks, you wonderful community.
Sheila
Update! I just tried this again by "allowing" for this one photo. I'm not sure what I'm allowing, but the photo was sent this time. Please advise.
Thanks,
Sheila

Sharing you are allowing the email to be sent.
Your SMTP has a password and it is confidential, if you do not agree it does not have access to that password.

How can I transfer photos from iPhoto on an iMac to iPhoto on a macbook

How can I transfer my photos from iphoto on an imac to iphoto on a macbook, both have same operating software.

Depends on what exactly you want to do and on what version of iphoto you have on each
To move selected events from one to the other pruchase iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use it to move the photos or events
To move the entire iPhoto library
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

How can I download photos from iphoto on my imac to my new macbook?

How do I download photos from iphoto on my imac to my new macbook?

Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

Thanks "Old Toad" .... I tried what you suggested: I erased the email accounts, re-booted, re-entered the email settings and changed the the email client to Mail (instead of iPhoto). I still have the message " email server didn't recognize your username/password combination"...... so frustrating and probably something so simple..... but I can't figure it out! I did clean-up everything, cookies/cashes, I did a "Safe Boot", just in case.... still not able to send email via iPhoto, instead I have to drag the photo from iPhoto onto the desktop then attach it to an email.... way too many steps!!!!
And what email client are you using in the successful (if too many step) process?

How Can I Email Photos from iPhoto using Yahoo Web Mail?

Is there anyway to hook the email functionality in iPhoto up to a web based email account?
On my old PC Yahoo had a little helper application that would intercept calls to the email program and redirected them to Yahoo. Yahoo does not seem to have a similar helper app for mac.
Can anyone think of a way to connect iPhoto's email button up to Yahoo or other web based mail?
Thanks!

There is one for GMail, but none for Yahoo, AFAIK.
As you're using 10.5, If you use the extended Open or Attach dialogue (with Column View) you can scroll to the bottom of the Shortcuts and find the Media browser there. Select any pic you want from there.

Can't email photo from iphoto

I get error "the email server does not recognize my user name or password combination when using iPhoto using latest operating system

Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete the email account and then add it back.
If that doesn't get you back on line with mail the set Mail as iPhoto's email client in iPhoto;s General preference pane and use Mail instead of iPhoto to email your pictures. Mail gives you an automatic sent copy as well as templates in its Stationary section and is more reliable than using iPhoto.

Cannot email photos from iPhoto on new iMac mountain lion

I have a pop account for my mail. When I got the new computer with iCloud, I had to have my pop mail forwarded to my iCloud account. That all works fine. But I cannot select a few photos in iphoto and click on 'send' for either the pop or the icloud accounts. I get a message that I am not connected to the internet (which I am) and to try again later. I have spoken with tech support at Roadrunner, my pop account, and we have checked that all settings are correct. He thinks the problem must be with iCloud. Any ideas?

If you are using iPhoto try going into the preferences and the click accounts to make sure you email account is setup correctly.

Can't email photos from iPhoto as server does not recognize user name or password

How can I fix this? I use MS office outlook for mac 2011 - I don't seem to have problems otherwise, or on iphone.

That's not the problem. If you have Apple Mail, you have to separately configure the passwords for iPhoto as well. Even though you have entered your email accounts and passwords properly in the email area, you have to re-enter the correct passwwords for all the email accounts registered under iPhoto/Preferences/Accounts; make sure to save each password, then close iPhoto and reopen it. Then you will be able to send the pix!!
Cheers,
Jim

I can't email photos from iPhoto-

I get an error saying my gmail password is incorrect however I don't know where to change that. I don't believe my gmail password has changed.
Could anyone help?
Thanks

Do you have a double log in to gmail for added security? iPhtoo can not handle that I understand
you change the password in the Accounts preference in iPhoto - you may need to delete the account and re-enter it - IMHO it is better to Use Mail for email (set it in the iPhtoo prefernces)
