I can't import photos sent via email to iphoto. Keeps saying photos file is unreadable.

I can't import photos from email attachment file (pdf or jpg) to iphoto. Keeps getting file is unreadable message. Any suggestions?

it is not RBG - it is RGB (Red-Green-Blue)
best to have then send JPEGs - and iPhoto only supports RGB images so be sure that they scan as sRGB - not Adobe RGB or gray scale
RGB specifically sRGB - those are color profiles for photos you tell the scanner which profile to use

  • After IOS 7 Photos can no longer be sent via email

    After updating to IOS 7 applications such as the photo store, or applications using email to send logs, no longer function.  In the example of sending a photo via email.  After choosing the photo and selecting next, the phone pulls up the email configuration screen as though nothing for email has been set up on the phone.  Exchange activesync settings are being deployed via an mdm profile, and do function to deliver email and .  I have discovered that if a profile is deployed from iPhone configurator the same results happen.  If I enter the email settings for active sync by hand photos create an email and send normally, as do other application accessing email to send information.  Anyone else seeing this behavior?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Many email servers have a limit to the size of attachments that be sent, often 10 MB. So that's why trying Terence's method has a better change of getting thru.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    NOTE: this is not the same as routinely backing up your entire iPhoto library folder to protect your photos. It only protects the loss of your organizational efforts that the database file contains.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Can an album be sent via email from ver. 7.1.5?

    I can send individual photos via email, but I have about 40 photos in an album, and rather than sending the photos individually, can I sent the entire album? Thanks.

  • Photo's sent via email not being received with attachment file

    I have a question regarding emailing photos (jpg) files. Though I am able to send the JPG files, when the person receives them they only see the picture but do not have the ability to download the attachment as none is visible. I have tried various methods but none have helped me. Also, can iPhoto import RAW ?

    when the person receives them they only see the picture but do not have the ability to download the attachment as none is visible.
    If they can see the picture then they have got the file. It's a setting on their end to figure out how to download it.
    Also, can iPhoto import RAW ?
    Er, yes but... RAW is a generic term for these files but every camera produces a different form of RAW file, so it's a question of what formats are supported on v6 of iPhoto (a few) on 10.3 (very few).

  • How do i get photos sent via email into the new photos app in yosemite 10.10.3

    Using mail on my mac, having upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 i now cant import photos sent via email into the new photos app. if i highlight the photo in mail and right click the mouse the option is still to export to iPhoto !!

    I was clicking on the photo, so thanks for telling me about the save icon - unfortunately this still tries to open up and save to iPhoto the same as clicking on the image but my photos have been moved from iPhoto to the new photos app as part of the update to 10.10.3 Yosemite. Although it also gives me the option to save other places i cant work out how to save into the photo app

  • HT201302 how can i import photos from iphone to pc

    how can i import photos from iphone to pc?

    For photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then on a PC you should be able to use the Windows Camera Wizard or just copy them via Windows Explorer (there is more info on this page).
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • I cannot open PDF filkes sent via email. I used too. nHow do I fix.

    Cannot open PDF files sent via email. The open via Word in encripted jinerish. This has not happend until now.
    Ciro

    I had the same problem.  My version of RoboHelp is pretty old (x5) and the problem was with pdfs made up in version 9.  Some pdfs would open and some would not.  It depended on the version used to make the pdf.  Got error messages and corrupted file messages.
    I solved the problem by using the full version of Acrobat and using the pdf Optimizer to make compatible with version 5( just to make sure).
    Another option is to "print" to the pdf printer when the file is open.
    Both then can be imported into RoboHelp without a problem
    Hope this helps.  It ruined many days at work for me while I tried to figure out what on earth I was going to do.

  • Images sent via email are not attachments

    I upgraded to Lion and now, jpeg images sent via email are not attachments but are rather images embedded in the message. I want my attachments back!! Those I send images to are saying they can not save the files as there are no attachments. How do I fix this? Everything was fine with Snow Leopard and running a photography business has me sending images a lot. Clients used to "save" the images or "select all" because they were attachment files. Now they can only see the imbedded image that is not a file.
    Also, I used to send jpeg images to my Windows 7 Phone to build my portfolio when I had Snow Leopard and now with Lion I do not have files sent to my phone but the image itself which I can't save to my phone.
    HELP!

    Does the Control+Click work with PC's? My clients use PC's and they cant download the embedded images. One client specifically is a webmaster for a sports club I photograph at every sporting event. At the end of each event I may have 40 + photos downsized and sent to him to post on his site so each email will have 7 - 10 images.
    With Snow Leopard, the images would be attached files but also imbedded images on my end. On his end, they're attached files he could just select all and save then put on the site. Now he and other PC clients are saying he can only save one image at a time. This is a lot of work and seems a bit backwards to me.
    When sending to my Windows 7 Phone, the image is not embedded but shows up as an attached file which my phone then gives me the option to "save to phone". Now it's an embedded image with no options to save to phone.
    I will have a look at the Attachments Tamer but it seems crazy to have to buy an app for something that seems simple to fix on Apple's end.

  • How can I import photos from photo stream to windows photo gallery? These photos are not on the camera roll on my iPad but are from another iPad on the same iCloud account.

    I work at a Learning Center that has 12 iPads on the same iTunes and iCloud account.  Each classroom uses an iPad assigned to their room to take photos.  Each of these photos then shows up in the Photo Stream in all 11 of the other iPads.  I have no trouble importing photos that are in the Camera Roll of any individual iPad, but I have not been able to import photos from the Photo Stream if the picture was not taken on the specific iPad I am using.  It is not feasible for me to collect all 12 iPads everyday to import everyones photos, so how can I use one "master" iPad that will let me import photos from the Photo Stream since it has all the photos that everyone has taken? 

    You downloaded an iCloud backup to your PC?  I assume you mean you downloaded your photo stream to your PC.  What you may not know is that photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days.  After that, they are deleted from photo stream but not from any device that already has them (such as your phone).  When you enabled photo stream on your PC you only had access to photos from the last 30 days since the others are no longer there, even though they remain on your phone.
    To transfer these to your computer at this point you have two options:
    Save them to the camera roll on your phone (by opening the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  (You can only import photos to your computer from the Camera Roll album.)  Then import them to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices/computers, including the my photo stream album.
    In the future, always import your photos from your camera roll to your computer via USB before deleting them.  Don't rely on photo stream or your iCloud backup to save your photos.

  • Can't import photos from my iPhone into iLife '08 after upgrade to 10.5.1

    I can't import photos from my iPhone into iLife '08 anymore after upgrade to 10.5.1.
    It used to work great...now this. Sad, sad, sad I am.
    I tried the "FIX" of refreshing phone and sync history, but it DID NOT WORK for me. HELP!
    Please help, somebody.
    Saint Podoreo

    I have the exact same issue, but with a standard IMAP account and SMTP.  My iPhone can send out, using the EXACT same settings, from the exact same WiFi connection...but the 10.8 MacBook cannot send at all.  The only account I can send out on is my iCloud account. 
    I have also tried all the steps above...no luck.
    I have also turned off all network filters and firewalls...no luck.  (And as I said above, my iPhone is on the exact same WiFi connection and using the exact same settings, and it can send fine.)
    Other messages I've found via Google have suggested simply forcing the SMTP server to use Port 25, but that didn't work for me either.

  • No Payment document attachement (PDF) sent via email

    Hi,
    We have been running the auto-email with PDF payment attachement via F110 for quite some times. Recently my user feedback that some of the vendors receive the email sent by SAP system, however, no attachement being sent to them.
    I have checked the F110 log, which the requested email is generated successfully. However, i couldn't check whether there is email attachement being to them via SOST.
    We are in ECC6. The reported cases are perhaps 5% of the batch payment document running affected with no pdf file attachement sent via email.
    I have been searching around any similar case and how we trace the problem. Can someone share on it?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi
    Ask to these vendor what kind of software they have to avoid SPAM, or if they manage black lists, 'grey' list. There are other software tools managing these messages. Sometimes these tools remove the attachments.
    I hope this helps you
    Regards
    Eduardo

  • Can I import photos from an old iPhoto library?

    Can I import photos from an old iPhoto library on an external hard drive to my current iPhoto library?  The icon on the hard drive appears greyed out when I try via Import.

    Open the older library and export the Photos from it to the Finder (File -> Export) and switch to the new Library and import those.
    Or, use  iPhoto Library Manager to move the photos, plus all the versions and associated metadata to the new Library.
