Iphoto and email

iphoto11 is not sharing photos by email. Triangle error symbol appearing. Email is hotmail account. Have recently upgraded software  Java? Don't know if this makes a difference.

I can't believe it!!!! . I have solved the problem myself. On the strength of the 2nd email account working I added my original one again and it worked. The only difference I can see was in description Hotmail as apposed to hotmail.co.uk.
So anyone with the same problem of iphoto not emailing photos try:
Drop down menu from iphoto.
Click preferences.
Go to accounts .
Click + symbol at bottom and add server and email address as instructed.
Test if it works, if it does,
Delete old email address which didn't work.
Yippee!!!!

  • Iphoto and Email Password

    Just received my Macbook Pro and loving it.  When wanting to share pictures for the first time via IPhoto I put in a wrong email password. Now, my email via IPhoto is not working and I don't see where it allows me to resubmit. What can I do?

    Okay, got it
    iPhoto>>preferences>>accounts
    Don't understand why the gmail account worked and .mac didn't.
    Quite ridiculous that if I change a password on me.com and icloud I have to go to individual Apple software like iPhoto and do it again

  • IPhoto and Email Sync

    Recently I transferred my iPhoto library from my old MacBook to my brand new MacBook Air by copying the iPhoto folder accross to my new machine.
    When I access my photos through iPhoto, everything is fine; however, when I create an email from Mac Mail and then hit the Attach button and navigate to Photos on the sidebar, my latest photo downloads are not available. It seems there is a lack of synchronization between iPhoto proper, and the Photo folder available from Mail.
    Is there something I can do. I still have my old MacBook from where I transferred the photos originally.

    You've upgraded from iPhoto 6 (or earlier) when you got the new machine, right?
    however, when I create an email from Mac Mail and then hit the Attach button and navigate to Photos on the sidebar, my latest photo downloads are not available
    This is not - nor ever was - a supported way for access your photos.
    Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    All of the above are a: Faster and b: safer than rooting around in the old Library's folders.

  • Why do I get the wrong date on my photos and emails?

    All my photos in iphoto and emails are coming up with the wrong date. Why is this and how can I correct it?
    I have made sure that the computer's date and time are ok.

    You may want to re-post in the iPhoto forum if it only happens in iPhoto.

  • Apps on old Apple ID. Can't access email but will I lose my pics if delete iPhoto and rebuy on new id?

    When I bought my iMac, the Apple store helped me set it up (move everything from my p.c. to the Mac. To set up iPhoto, I used my original Apple ID which is now unusable due to changing my email address. I kept the password the same so I could always get into it but it won't work now.
    Most of the apps I bought on my original apple id I have deleted since I cannot update them. Now that I have to update iPhoto and can't, I am worried. If I delete iPhoto to buy again on my 5 year old "new" Apple ID, will I lose all my pictures, videos, etc?
    What is the work around for this? Losing my pictures is not an option but if I cannot use iPhoto due to upgrading to Yosemite, then what?
    Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

    First, try the new password.  If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.
    Also, read this: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support

  • HT1338 Being prompted to update iPhoto and iMovie, but getting message "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."  My email has not changed.  Any ideas?  -gb

    I am being prompted to update iPhoto and iMovie, but getting the message: "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it."  These came already loaded on my laptop, and my email has not changed.  Any ideas or work-arounds?

    Has your Apple ID changed, that's the one that matters.
    You need to sign in under the account that purchased these apps (did you buy this Mac new)

  • What's a good video app to use? I have iPhoto and iMovie, but they won't let me email a video. I also want to be able to make a dvd of my home movies. Any suggestions?

    What's a good video app to use? I have iPhoto and iMovie, but it these wont let me do certain things, such as email a video. I also want to be able to make a dvd of my home movies. Any suggestions?

    Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
    What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.

  • Can I email photos w/o templates Iphoto provides? I used to be able to choose a few photos and email them. Now I have to work with these templates and can barely see what I'm writing!

    I used to be able to choose a few photos and email them. Now I have to work with these templates and often do no want to. Could someone tell me the process for choosing to send photos without the templates?

  • Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email.  I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1

    Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email.  I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1  (902.17) OS is Mavericks 10.9.1.

    Your question and description is not very clear to me, so hopefully something here will help:
    1. Gmail is a service not an app or a place. So you need to access the service with an app - that can be iPhoto, Mail, Outlook or any other mail client, or even a Web Browser like Safari or Firefox.
    So you can't "go to GMail" as you write, but instead you go to an application set up to use the GMail service.
    2. iPhoto is not a mail client. It's a handy way to email pics to Grandma, but for what you're doing you need to use an app that supports all of the Gmail service. iPhoto doesn't. There is no way around that.
    3. How to send to groups will vary depending on what app you use to access the GMail service. All of these apps can receive photos from iPhoto, either - as in the case of Mail and Outlook, via the Share function - or, in the case of all the rest - via a Media Browser.
    For help sending to Groups using any of these other apps you need to ask omn their respective forums. But the workflow is quite simple:
    Using Mail or Outlook set in the iPhoto Prefereneces:
    1. Select the pic(s) you want to share.
    2. Choose email from the Share function
    3. Make your selections re size etc
    4. The email opens up in Mail or Outlook
    - from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
    Using any other app:
    1. In the mail app create a new email
    2. Click on the Attach button or link
    3. Use the Media browser to select the pic(s) you want to send
    4. Attach them
    - from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.

    You don't.
    Slideshows are exported as movies and these are very large files. Email is not an appropriate medium for very large files as they can cause immense issues for the receiver.
    Better to share some other way.

  • I have the latest version of iPhoto and now I don't have the Apple templates for emailing photos.  What happened?  How can I get them back?

    I have the latest version of iPhoto and somehow I have lost the ability to use the Apple iPhoto templates for emailing photos.  I select my photos, go to Share, go to email, and the templates used to pop up.  Now the photos go directly to email.  Does anyone know how I can get the templates back?

    I encountered the same issue after an upgrade of iPhoto, and it was resolved by clicking on the "iPhoto" button on the menu on the top left of your screen, then "preferences", and in the very first window (General), select the very last pull-down menu "email photos using".
    There, you can select various email providers, aol (if set-up), Microsoft outlook, etc... and of course, iPhoto (which should be the very first choice on the pull-down menu).
    Select iPhoto, and you will immediately be able to use the templates and make cool cards when emailing your photos from iPhoto.
    I hope this helps if your question has not yet been answered.

  • When I edit a photo in iphoto and then email it, sometimes the edits don't show up in the email. Any suggestions?  thanks

    When I edit a photo in iphoto and then try to email it, sometimes the edit does not take.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Trying to send pix in iPhoto and get message email server does not recognize username/password combination.

    apple message when trying to send an email " email does not recognize username/password.

    Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete the email account and add it back. 
    The better solution, IMO, is to set Mail as iPhoto's email client in iiPhoto's General preference pane.  That gives you better access to your Contacts, a sent copy and templates similar to iPhoto's in the stationary section of Mail.
