Iphone6/ios8 not sending photos via mail or messages

I can't send photos from my iPhone 6. I have tried both Mail and messages. Nothing happens. The Mail window comes up and allows me to fill in the To address, subject etc. I can click on Send but nothing happens. The Photo doesn;t go into the outbox or the sent folder.
The only thing I may be doing differently is I am not using iCloud to store my photos. Any suggestions? (I already tried resetting my iPhone)

Thanks for the mail forum tip
Yeah, I use the Media Browser in Mail. It's just quicker, more convenient when in iphoto to use that function.
Will post on the Mail Forum now, hope that helps . . .
Thanks again,

PROBLEMS SENDING PHOTOS VIA MAIL BUTTON & SHARE-EMAIL

When I try to send pictures using the SHARE - EMAIL or with the EMAIL button, I get the SIZE OPTION message, and following that nothing, the photos are not loading to an email.
MAIL is selected in PREFERENCES.
This is a sudden problem, previously it has worked without difficulties, and as far as I am aware I have not made any changes.
Am also experiencing MAIL problems with SAFARI. When I try to send a webpage link via the *mail this web page* button on the toolbar, or from the *File Dropdown* I've suddenly started getting this message:
'' *An email message can’t be created to send the link because Safari can’t find an email application. You can use the Mail application included with Mac OS X to send mail. To do so, you might need to install Mail using the Mac OS X Install discs.* ''
Anyone else experiencing similar problems?
Can anyone help? Please!

Another iOS 7.1.2 my iPhone 5s can not send photo via IM, FB, Twitter - etc or upload to iPhoto.

I plug my iPhone 5s into my MacBook Pro using the USB - which normally automatically imports all phone photos and puts them into iPhoto.
That's not happening anymore. Nor can I send a photo from my phone to others via IM, Facebook, Twitter - etc and so forth.
I had to do a HARD RESET which seems to has fixed it for now. <HOLD the SLEEP & HOME down simultaneously until you see the Apple logo reappear>
Hopefully this helps someone else.

Glad to hear it worked for you and thanks for sharing your solution.

Despite following all the requested protocols elements 9 will not send photos via photomail

I had this problem once before in elements 8 and I cant remember how the problem was resolved in the end. I've just replaced my PC, so had to re-download elements 9 . This particular copy didn't automatically import my pictures as usual and once I got over that problem immediately ran into the photomail refusal
I have gone through preferences/sharing and chosen windows live mail ( I'm on win 7) managed to import my contacts but I just keep getting the message
" elements was unable to finish your e-mail - Alternatively use adobe e-mail service! . I did try there method and after waiting half an hour, got one of there
ridiculously long serial No checked it goodness knows how many times but still it wouldn't work. I do hope someone knows what to do because sending pics is the most important thing (to me) in photoshop

Hope you have configured the Windows mail on your new PC, because the error you mentioned is received when the Email is not configured on the system.

How can i send multiple videos and photos, via mail, at the same time?

you allowed to send only one video or 10(+) photos via mail.
but can you send both at the same time? so 10(+) photos and a video (or more than one) in one mail?
because if my mom has birthday pictures or something like that. She likes to be able to send it directly from her iphone to every person she knows in just one mail.
anyone any tips or tricks?

Those restrictions are generally part of the email provider, not just the phone. Attachments are restricted due to size, bandwith use, etc. Trying to send that much information in an email attachment is even restricted on a computer. Sharing via photo sites is generally a better option for large amounts of pictures and large video files.

I have lost ability in the share module to send photos via e-mail from my catalogue to selected addresses

I have lost the ability in the share module to send photos via e-mail to selecred addresses. I have checked my settings and everything seems in order but still does not work, can I just reinstall elements 10 over my original elements 10 to repair

Hi Bob,
If you are using Windows Live Mail (WLM) 2011 then I think you may need the fix mentioned in this document to enable WLM in the Elements sharing preferences.

If you want,m you can update to Windows Live Mail 2012 from here
Windows Essentials - Download Windows Live Essentials
When you try to send an image using Photomail, how far do you get and what happens?
Brian
Edit: The fix mentioned in the first reference above seems to have dropped out of the system. It is probably best to go for the 2012 version which doesn't need the fix.

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

4) in Client, 'Send Email Using :' set"Outlook Express" and press 'Ok'

When you said you went to Settings and everything seems good. Does that mean the MMS was turned on? If so, and this is only being experienced when dealing with SMS/MMS, then you should contact your carrier to have them check to make sure your account is provisioned for MMS, and that everything is alright with your account. SMS/MMS is a carrier function.

IPhoto 9.6 bug while trying to send photos by mail

When I try to send photos via email directly from iphoto I have the following error message :
Votre message électronique n’a pas été transmis car le serveur n’a pas répondu. (Your email hasn't been sent because server didn't ansewer, check you internet connexion, etc...). Of course my internet connexion is working, so, has anyone ever had this bug ?

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)

Send photos by mail

I don't seem able to send annoys my photos via mail, after installing the iPhoto replacement, PHOTOS.
When I select my photo from PHOTOS, then select the SHARE button at the top, it opens my options (Facebook etc), but my MAIL option is not available to select as an option to use (I can see it, just not able to select it).
I never had issues with iPhoto, is there something Im not doing?

Is the (Apple) Mail app icon visible, but not Outlook? If it's there what happens if you click it - it might just open the default email client and could be a GUI error not showing the Outlook icon.
I see:
Also I assume you see the same via File>Share menu:

Sending photos via iphoto

I am unable to send photos via Iphoto. I get a message to check outgoing mail settings. I am not sure what the outgoing mail settings should be.
outgoing mail servier : smtpme.com, port is 587, should the box at the bottom be checked or unchecked? I have tried it both ways and it still doesnt resolve
the issue.

I have it checked and it works for me. Delete that account and then add it back anew. See if that will do the job. The server address and port are the same that I have setup for my iCloud account.
You can alway set Mail as the emali client of choice so you can get more features, i.e. copies of sent messages, more templates under Stationary, etc.

Send photos via text

Is it possible to send photos via text message instead of email?

No. This is called MMS and is not a function of the iphone.
E-mail works as you can send and receive pictures to and from your iphone, to and from other peoples cell phones.

I can no longer send photos via email on my iPhone 5, any suggestions how to fix this?

sending photos via email on my iPhone 5 was so easy once upon a time, now it is impossible, any advice?

Chris

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad. From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
