I tried to e-mail a picture from iPhoto..

I tried to e-mail a picture from iPhoto, and when I click on the send button I get a message box asking for the password for my AOL e-mail address on smtp server "smtp.aol.com. I put in my AOL password, but that didn't work. What password are they asking for?

Have you tried to delete the account from your Preferences and to Re-Enter it? That usually will help.
If not, try to use "Mail.app" as mail client in iPhoto and not iPhoto. Change the the stting in the Preferences > General tab to "Email photos using Mail". This is usually more robust thanthe setting "iPHoto".

Cannot import picture from iPhoto to set mail

I tried to drag a picture from iphoto to birthday greeting in mail but the picture in greeting is not opening up.
What am I doing wrong?

Have you managed to get it into an email but it shows as an icon rather than an image? If so, control+click or right click on the image and select 'view in place'.
If you are creating an email using Mail's Stationery feature you may want to save the image from iPhoto to the Desktop and then drag it from the Desktop into the template you've chosen.

I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac. I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " the picture you are trying to print is in the iphoto library" what can i do to be able to print a photo from iphoto

I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac. I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " unreadable file: the following file could not be imported. the file is in the iphoto library folder" also when i try to print a picture from iphoto i get a message that says "no page was selected"
not sure what happened but i can pnly print when i drop the photo onto my desktop as an 8.5 x 11 size picture and i am trying to print 4x6's

Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message. If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

I can't turn on Mail in Settings. Earlier i tried to e-mail a document from the GoodReader app through my Gmail account. Apparently, my iPad2 didn't like that. Also, now when i click on Mail on the Home screen, the Mail screen shows no mailboxes.

iPad2. I tried to e-mail a document from the GoodReader app. It froze. Now, when i tap the Mail button on the Home screen, it goes to a blank mail page, with no mailboxes, whereas before it went straight to my Gmail account. I went in to the Settings section, tapped on Mail, Contacts, and then on Gmail. The Mail button is grayed to Off, and when i press it to turn it On, all i get is a message that says Turning on Mail, but nothing happens. Suggestions?

Start off by trying to reset the ipad. Press and hold the power and home buttons at the same time until the device powers down and you see the Apple logo.

Forwarding pictures from Iphoto using Apple Mail

Ok maybe it's me. But when I sue iPhoto to send pictures by email I select the photos I want in iPhoto, click the "send by email" button and it opens Apple mail.
All that's cool. The problem is that it puts the pictures in the body of the email "which is ok some times" but most times I want to send them as an attachment, which they are not when they are in the body.
So what do I need to do?
KMW

I had this same problem. when i clicked the email button from iphoto, it made an email, but the pics were in the body and when i sent it to other people, they couldnt download them as attachments. i did some testing and i found out its really just when you use that email button in iphoto. in leopard, theyve added a real nice feature in that you get your ilife media browser when you go to attach something from the web (gmail, aol.com, etc.) and now in Mail itself, theres a photo browser button. using this and then picking the pictures from iphoto will send the pictures as attachments. its just that email button in iphoto that is screwy. according to an ilife page "A new email message opens, ready for you to address and type your text in. Your photo appears in the body of the message, or as an attachment, depending on the email program you’re using.". youd think apple would have made their own mail program do it as an attachment. i dont know, im using my aol account through mail, so maybe thats it. for now just start the email in mail.

I tried to migrate information from MacBook Air to ...Pro and it seemed to have taken files from folders on desktop as none exist on Air now. As to where these files are, I don't know. It has also taken my pictures from iPhoto to unknown destination. ??

If you used migration assistant then it probably created a new Login user and placed the migrated files under it.

I'm trying to order some photo albums from iphoto for chistmas gifts and there is a notification that keeps popping up telling me I need to send to a p.o. box, the mailing address IS a po box and it still won't let me order. What do I do?

I've not seen this message but would think that it might say that you can not send to a PO Box - exactly what is the error message?

When trying to email pictures from IPhoto for the first time, I chose to use my Yahoo server, but I mistakenly entered the wrong password.

iPhoto Menu -> Prefences -> Accounts. Delete and recreate your email account.

Hi! I am trying to print pictures from iPhoto. I follow the directions and select a photo and click file-print-but it doesn't give me any size/printing options. Instead I get a message that says "no themes available". Do I need to install themes?

Hi-I am trying to print pictures from iphoto. I selected a picture and tried file-print. But instead of giving me size/layout options, it gave me a message, "no available themes". Not sure what to do next--something I need to install?

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

I'm trying to upload pictures from iphoto to stores such as walmart or costco for prints. the images won't upload to these sites. i'm new to mac so i know i'm missing a step somewhere.

i'm not able to upload pictures from iphoto to stores such as walmart or costco to order prints. the images just won't load. does anyone know what i'm doing wrong??

Well, since there is no function to export from iPhoto to these sites directly, here is a simple way how you can try it:
- create a folder on your desktop
- name it like "WalMart pics"
- open iPhoto
- resize it so you can still see the folder you just created
- select the pictures you want to send to the store in iPhoto and drag them onto the new folder
The folder now contains the pics you selected. Now go to the stores' websites and upload the pictures from that folder.
You might also use the "Share" option in iPhoto to get the photos into a folder, but I like the direct drag and drop better.

When I try to email a picture from Iphoto, I get the error message "email server didn't recognize your username/password"

I have been trying to email pictures from Iphoto, but it tells me that the email server doesn't recognize the username/password combination. How do I go about changing this?

no problem if you don't like Mail - I do and most iPhoto users do not relealise that with '11 this changed and is easly moved back
Oh, I like it - I just don't like it when the built-in iPhoto mailer does not work, for it should work. I like to use both - Mail and iPhoto. To have both, I have set iPhoto as mailer, and when I want to use Mail.app, I simply drag the photos from iPhoto to the Mail icon in the Dock.

Why do I receive an error message while attempting upload pictures from iPhoto '09 to Facebook?

I currently have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2. I tried uploading pictures from iPhoto to Facebook but I get the message "An error has occured. Please try again later". File > Export > Login (which brings me to the Login page on Facebook) > I sign in & that's when I get the message. I've even tried hitting the Facebook tab on the bottom right. Does anyone have any solutions to my problem? I'll greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Did you ever get a response?

E-Mailing small photos from iPhoto '09

E-Mailing small photos from iPhoto ‘09
Hi:
We used to have a great way of e-mailing photos from iPhoto: specifically, we just clicked the Entourage e-mail icon at the bottom of the iPhoto window, chose the size of the photos we wished to send (ie, one was given options for how much one wished to reduce the size of the photos), and it was done.
Now that we’ve upgraded to Outlook 2011 we seem to have lost this functionality.
I tried to choose Outlook 2011 as our default e-mail program under iPhoto>Preferences>”Email photos using :” but the only 4 options are AOL,Eudora, Mail, and Entourage. Interestingly, the icon used here is Outlook 2011, not Entourage (yellow, not purple), but it still says “Microsoft Entourage” next to the yellow icon, and the mail icon at the bottom of the main iPhoto window is still the purple Entourage icon (and if one clicks it, it tries to open Entourage).
I then went into Apple’s Mail program under Preferences, and made sure that the “Default email reader” option was set to Microsoft Outlook 14.1.4 (which it was), but iPhoto still uses Entourage.
I searched the web and found a tip saying that one can drag photos from iPhoto over the Outlook icon in the dock to mail photos. I was thrilled to see that this worked, only to realize that it sends full size photos, without the downsizing option discussed above.
I thought about upgrading iPhoto to the ’11 version, but a plethora of the online reviews were less than laudatory about the stability of iPhoto '11, so decided to stay with ’09.
Thus, does anyone have suggestions for easily sending reduced size photos from iPhoto using Outlook 2011? I realize that I can transfer the photos from iPhoto to my desktop, open Adobe Photoshop, manually downsize each photo, close Photoshop, and then send the reduced size photos, but I would love to find a much more intuitive and quick method, similar to what we had with iPhoto and Entourage.
Thank you very much!!!
iPhoto ’09 8.1.2 (4124)
OS 10.6.8
Outlook: Mac 2011 v 14.1.4

I realize that I can transfer the photos from iPhoto to my desktop, open Adobe Photoshop, manually downsize each photo, close Photoshop, and then send the reduced size photos,
No you don't need to do that. Just use the Export dialogue in iPhoto to reduce the quality - it's exactly the same as the one used when sending to a mail app.
As for the comments about iPhoto 11 - search and you'll find pretty much the same ones about iphoto 09, 08, 6, 5 etc

Mobile Me was my default email account, so if I did any emailing like trying to send a photo directly from iphoto it would send from the mobile me address. Is there a way to set a different default email account now that mobile me is gone?

We used Mobile Me for our default email. So if you answered an ad from a site or tried to send a photo directly from iphoto, it would use the mobile me account. Now that its gone, can I set a different address as my default?

WEll, MobileMe has been moved & still works in iCloud.
Did you setrup an iCloud account?
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
