Iphoto / Sharing via Email issues with 10.10.2

Hope some one knows the answer ... I have had so many problems with iPhoto since covering across to Yosemite. This is the latest.
I am trying to share photos through iPhoto using e-mail. This has only just stopped working 36 hours ago. I have checked the e-mail server for incoming and outgoing issues by sending an e-mail and attaching a photo the usual way - no problem. When I try to do this through the SHARE option in iPhoto I get the following error message. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I am on the latest version of iPhoto 9.6.1. Thanks for any insight / help.

If recreating the account does not help, the reason may be two-step verification. Did you recently enable two-step verification for iCloud?
Are you sending from your iCloud Mail address?
If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.

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)

IPhoto Sharing via Streaming Issues

3300 Iphotos in total
Sharing/streaming done from MacMini.
Lasted software releases.
Sharing via streaming stops associating the photo with the stream. When you click on the photo with the info window it shows that photo to be associated with a sharing stream. When you click on the streaming link it goes to that stream but the picture is not present.
I have not hit the apple limits posted, however did not find one that says the limit on the number of streams, I have 24.
I have deleted the sharing stream, rebuilt/repaired the data base with the option/command dbl click and still same problem. Waited an hour. Turned off sharing on associated device. These are not shared with the public and only with my own email so no one else involved.
This happened yesterday at about the same place in the photo process. So I turned off and on sharing which deleted all my streams and started again this morning only for it to start again.

I'm waiting till the new Photos application for Macs and iPhones is released with the release of Yosemite next month. That will change the game quite a bit.
Photos will come next year - a bit after the Yosemite release; http://www.apple.com/osx/preview/apps/ says: "Photos in OS X is coming early next year."
I don't know if the fact that the Camera Roll is no longer in the Photos app on the iPhone is by plan or a glitch in the installation.
At first I thought both were still there, because my migrated iPhoto library is still showing "Camera Roll" and "Photo Stream". But that are the remnants of a nice app.
The new "Recently Added" album looks like the successor to both Camera Roll and Photo Stream. I think the Camera Roll Album is gone.The manual does not mention it once. And the missing "My Photo Steam" must be a glitch. The manual says:
"All photos added to your Recently Added album—including screenshots and photos saved from email, for example—appear in My Photo Stream." How can photos appear in the My Photo Stream, if it is not visible?

Iphoto ( sharing via email )

When I try to share a phot via email, iphoto still has old mail server details , even although i previously updated them in email preferences, how do i fix this ?

IPhoto and sharing via email

When I am sharing photos from iPhoto via email, I am only able to add one recipient at a time. I there a setting somewhere that needs to be adjusted so that I can send a photo to more than one person at a time?

Just hit Return after you put in the first email address and then put in your next email address and so on...

Why can't I share iPhoto photos via email directly anymore?

In my work I often need to email photos. It's always been a snap with iPhoto's ability to share photos directly via email. However with my last system upgrade this important feature no longer works. It really adds a lot of time to my workday. Can this be fixed?

No one knows waht Apple will do and they are not here - this is strictly a user to user forum -- this issue has not had a solution that I have seen - the wrokaround is to drag photos to outlook for full sized photos or to export to a desktop folder using the export size options and then attaching to Outlook mail from there
report the issue to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

IPhone 6/iOS 8 email issues with wifi connection

Hi
I have just upgraded from an iPhone 4 (iOS 7) to an iPhone 6 (iOS 8) and am having an issue with my pop email account. I used my iPhone 4 backup to set up new iPhone, so all the settings were as they were in my old phone. I have two email accounts, one is an IMAP account and the other is a POP account (which is my main email), I have no problems connecting to the server and downloading emails when connected via 4G (its super fast), but when I am connected via wifi, the POP account takes ages to connect to the server and check for emails (stuck on checking for email). I can speed up the process by closing mail app completely and reopening, then it checks and downloads really quickly (IMAP account has no problems), but this is frankly a pain.
I have spent ages on the phone with Apple support, who have got me to delete my POP email account twice, reset network settings, reset the phone using on/off button and home button, all to no avail. They are intent on telling me it's my email service providers fault, but as I pointed out there is no issue on 4G and my old iPhone (using iOS 7) on wifi has no issues, so can't be email provider. I have also tried using Apple's wifi in store to rule out router issue and the problem happened there too.
Have now run out of suggestions and options. I'm not sure if it's the phone itself, either a hardware or software issue (Apple support think not). Someone told me that it could be the wifi on my phone blocking the connection to the server. I have an appointment booked at the genius brand they have suggested wiping the phone and setting up as a new phone to see if the problem occurs, but this seems a bit drastic and I would lose all messages etc. Any help would be appreciated.

I have solved the issue! I tried my pop account on other devices with iOS 8 and the same thing happened, so I deduced that the issue is a glitch in iOS 8 with wifi and pop accounts. I managed to get hold of the IMAP settings for my email provider and all seems to be well. Happy days!

IPad Email issues with the new iOs4

Well I guess downloading and being the first one to use these software rollouts is not a great idea. I have an iPad with WiFi and 3G. I rely heavily on my iPad for email. Here are the issues that I can concur with other users:
1. Main email account sometimes sends email and sometimes gets hung up. If I switch off the wifi and turn it back on or 3G it will send out. If I cc a copy to myself it sometimes winds up in a spam folder. This is a Yahoo email account.
The solution: open the Yahoo email account in Safari and view as a web page. To send emails shut the wifi off and turn it on see if that "reboots" the email.
Apple must come up with an email fix to this ASAP -- it is possible there is a compatibility issue with Yahoo and the new iOS4 or the Mobile Me that I downloaded
2. Email in the "drafts" folder cannot be sent or moved to the "inbox" to resend when ready
3. Emails being sent to my Yahoo account are received

Response to hils26, 11/25/10: I am having ongoing issues of a similar nature. For lack of a better word, I would describe it as "leeching". Before upgrading to ios4, my drafts were being readdressed to an addressee in the next saved draft; sometimes the subject line was changed as well (subject of the next saved draft). Before I noticed, I had sent several personal emails to an unintended addressee.
Now I find that the subjects are being changed in my inbox emails. I cannot even describe the strange emails I find in my yahoo inbox and sent folders...they appear to be spam offers sent to myself and several others from my address book.
This is not only potentially embarrassing; the security breach can affect business conducted via email...which is the primary use for my iPad.
Is this happening to anyone else?

Sharing via email says the server did not recognize the username and password combination

I am trying to share photos in iPhoto via email (gmail) and it says the server does not recognize the username password combination. I have deleted the email account rebooted iMac and re-entered the gmail account info and I get the same message. I have confirmed the username and password are correct.

LarryHN I guess I should have clarified that. I did try it that way and I am able to email pictures with mail set as the email client. When I change it to iPhoto as the email client is when I get this message. I have the same setup on my Macbook and it works great for emailing pictures from iPhoto. Although I can send them through email client, I prefer doing it through iPhoto.

Email issues with PC users

I am a web project manager and email daily with both PC & Apple users. I use Apple Mail as my default program. I have had countless issues with the formatting of my email appearing differently to PC users on Outlook when sending or forwarding Rich Text emails. I try to stick with plain text but sometimes Rich Text is required.
My current issue is orphan "B" characters are appearing through out the body of my email text when sending or forwarding Rich Text emails to PC users. This is NOT visible at all in my Apple mail program. This does not occur in plain text. I recently switched to sending in UTF-8 format - could this be the issue and if so what is the best solution.
I am interested in feedback on the best way to efficiently communicate with PC users using mail and what the appropriate configurations to do so would be. I really don't want to have to switch from Apple mail to use another program but when dealing with co-workers and clients who are not tolerant of these errors I must find a solution.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Acrobat hangs when sharing via email. Why?

I just installed the entire CC suite, including Acrobat 11 (or XI for you 1st century Romans out there). I was somewhat puzzled to see that when I select share by email the PDF still hangs with the spinning beach ball as it has for the two previous versions if not more. Is this a problem with Acrobat, MS Outlook or my particular set-up? It's hard to believe it would be with Acrobat because it has been a problem for at least the last three versions.
Thanks for any help,
Mike

So I'm the only person having this problem or am I the only person sending PDFs via email?

Firefox Web Browser connectivity and email issues with Comcast connection

I have been having an issue with Firefox conecting through Comcast both to xfinity home and especially to email for the past 2 to 3 months. I finally solved the problem. Comcast requires no proxy setting. To solve the problem go to Firefox Tools, click on Options, click on the tab Advanced. Click on Settings, the check the box for "No proxy". Click Ok. And that did it! Am I glad. Reading email was getting very tedious with all the waiting.

I'm glad you got it worked out and are now able to enjoy the email reading experience more. Great problem solving!

Browser and email issues with OS 10.9.4

Had a problem that I thought had been solved. See thread here: Just installed OSX 10.9.4 - have browser and email issues
Now a week or so later, it's back. Same symptoms. I have followed the procedure posted by Linc Davis. Anybody have further ideas?
Don Hutchins

If you are using Safari, try going to Safari/Preferences/Advanced and set the develop menu to show. Go to the develop menu and select Empty Caches.
If that doesn't work, Safari/Reset Safari/Remove all web site data.
For Mail, try:
Do a backup.
Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

Email issues with iP4, Cox Communications

So I convinced my mother to get an iPhone 4 yesterday, and I have been setting it up for her.
She has Cox Communications (omaha, ne) email, and the AT&T guy told me it should be easy to set up her email on the phone.
I set it up with her name, email, password, etc on the phone, but the phone wouldnt download any messages to the inbox?
It can recieve the emails I send as tests, but it wont recieve messages from my dad or others that show up in her outlook on her computer.
I went to the Apple store here in omaha, but he just deleted the account and reset it up and the problem still is there. we logged on to the webmail version of the email, and it was also empty. But she still had messages on her Outlook on her computer, but they wouldnt transfer to the phone.
She can still recieve my emails from both my own iphone and macbook.
I am totally at a loss. The Apple guy who helped us could send her an email and it showed up (on both the Outlook and the iPhone), but no other messages will. He said it was probably an issue with Cox, and to call them. But when I called them earlier (first step to try to resolve the issue, before driving out to the Apple store), they just gave me the servers for incoming and outgoing, along with ports, and they said to go to Apple if it still didnt work. Then I had the Apple guy direct me back to Cox.
I'm getting the run around, and no solutions.
Any help?

Note this procedure may be a little different depending on the version of Outlook.
Open Outlook. Click "Tools" on the top menu bar. Select "Account Setting". Click on the name of the account.(on the "E-Mail" tab). Click on "Change". Click on "More Settings". Click on the "Advanced" tab. If not checked, click on the check box for "Leave a copy of the message on the server"

Email issue with password change

I recently had to change my email password. Now I can't get mail on my IPad. When I go to settings under mail, contacts, calendars, it is not highlighted and will not let me open it. I have the same issue with messages and facetime not being highlighted. My email works fine on all other devices, including my iphone.

Do you currently have Settings > General > Restrictions > Accounts (under the 'allow changes' heading) set to 'Don't Allow Changes' ? If you do then change it to 'Allow Changes'
