Iphoto to mail

Have Mac OS X 10.5.3, Installed ILife 08, when I chose picture to transfer to mail
the option of size to send always comes out small regardless of option picked ie actual size. Any suggestions?

There's a second place to check for the size: in the new message window in Mail:

Add To iPhoto in Mail fails for iPhone photos sent in multiple emails

Someone takes six photos with an iPhone and emails them to you.
You get 6 emails. Each one has a photo.jpg image attached.
You click the SAVE pop-down menu in the Mail message and choose Save To iPhoto. The photo is imported into iPhoto. You delete that email and do the same thing with the second email with the second photo...
BUT, somewhere the Mail-iPhoto smartness turns dumb, as the rest of the photos will not show up in iPhoto. (This may have something to do with the fact that the iPhone sends each photo with the attachment name of photo.jpg and somehow Mail or iPhoto think that photo has already been added to iPhoto).
I was having this problem with photos emailed to me by iPhone users and tested it myself.
Sure enough, after the first photo.jpg attachment is imported all subsequent Add To iPhoto operations of iPhone sent images fail... even if the photos have been sent from separate iPhones from separate email addresses.
All the attachments are kept by Mail in uniquely numbered folders in the attachments folder of my receiving email account in Library/Mail but since each attachments is named photo.jpg that seems to throw off iPhoto OR Mail (because even the quick progress update of "Adding photo to iPhoto" does not show up on these attempts).
I checked if quitting and restarting Mail fixed allowed the second photo to be added to iPhoto but it did not. Quitting iPhoto after EACH import/Add To iPhoto operation allowed each photo to be added into iPhoto.
This may have to do with the iPhoto bugs handling large libraries (I have 19000 images in it) like the spinning wheel of Names window after imports, etc.
Just sharing if others have the same experience sending 3 iPhone photos by email to themselves and seeing if all can be added to iPhoto from Mail. Thanks.

Yes it is a bug
Report to apple. iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
You can work around BR saving to the desktop and importing or opening in quick view, expanding to full screen and saving to iPhoto

My regular google gmail works fine.

You should be able to do it with Dropbox.

How can I resend an IPhoto e-mail with the wrong address?

How can I resend an IPhoto e-mail that was returned because of an error I made in the address?

ImagineThat:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is a 3rd party application, pdf-RecoverPro, that will let you lock the file to printing, changing, etc. You set two passwords, one to let the user view it and one to unlock the restricted features. Just provide the first password and send the file. You can try the demo version. It just saves one page in demo mode.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Can't send more than 1 photo from iPhoto to Mail since upgraded to Leopard

Hi there,
I'm using an older version of iPhoto (4.0.3). We recently upgraded to Leopard, and ever since then, we haven't been able to use the Email icon in iPhoto to attach photos in Mail. It prepares to send all the photos, but only attaches one to a message, and then I get an error message saying, "Mail got an error: Can't get paragraph 8 of content of outgoing message id (a long number). Invalid index."
Does anybody have any idea as to what's going on here? It's very frustrating!!!
Thanks in advance for your help!

With the current software combination you are using, there IS actually this need -- your post (and others) here give evidence that it does not work otherwise. Your choices would seem to be -- in descending order of complexity -- a) revert to OS X 10.4, b) install a newer version of iPhoto, or c) take the extra step of exporting.
Alternatively, have you tried preparing a new message first, then just dragging the selected images directly from iPhoto to your message?
Um, you seem to be contradicting yourself, so I have no idea what you're talking about.
As I already said, I DON'T NEED to take the extra step of exporting the photos into a folder, as I AM selecting and dragging the images directly from iPhoto into Mail.

Timemachine only opens a finder window even when I'm in iPhoto or mail. I am trying to retrieve a deleted book project from iPhoto. Please help

If you have iPhoto '09, you cannot browse or restore seleted items from your backups. See the pink box in #15 of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
Mail should work, however, per the blue box there.

Souvent eu ce problème,
Je cree un dossier sur le bureau et glisse les photos à partir d'Iphoto dans ce dossier. Ce geste a pour effet de creer des copies dans le dossier.
Il ne reste plus qu'à selectionner ces photos pour les envoyer en pièces jointes.

Drag and drop iPhoto to mail

I have two accounts set up on my iMac.
In one account if I drag and drop a photo from iPhoto into mail the image is pasted at the position in the mail exactly where the cursor is.
In the other account if I repeat this process the image appears at the end of the mail irrespective of where the cursor is. Whilst this is ok on most mails, it isn't ok if I am replying to another mail since the image is pasted at the end of the original mail.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? I have compared the settings on the two mail accounts and they appear identical.

In the Mail window Command (right) - click on the movie and select either Save Attachment or Save to Downloads Folder from the contextual menu.
Or move the cursor to the dividing line between the head and body of the email so these options appear and click on the attachment button.

Mailing photos from iphoto through mail

When I mail photos from iphoto through mail, it sends the picture at very low resolution regardless of the setting I choose (small, medium, large, actual). How can I send photos to others at viewing or even printing quality? Can I resize the pictures to my specifications as I used to be able to do on my PC? Through ACDSee I could resize to 50% which would be small enough to send quickly but still high enough quality for the recipients to view and even print. Thanks!

After iPhoto has created a new Mail message have a look at the bottom right hand corner of the Mail Message window - there's another control there for sizing the pics... try play with that one to find the size you require.
You can access your photos for sending in Mail too. In the New Mail Message Window there's an icon on the toolbar that will show you your iPhoto library.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I am using iPhoto 11 mail and cannot add more than one recipient in the 'to' line. When I put a comma in, the recipient's address is deleted. If I use ' ' with more than one recipient the save grays out. Any thoughts?

I figured it out. I needed to fix some errors in my account information. It works fine now.

How do I include keywords when I "share" iPhotos via MAIL?

How do I include keywords when I "share" iPhotos via MAIL?
When I send the images, it doesn't include the keywords, which I use as a description. But when I email them via "Share" in the menu bar - none of the keywords come through in the email. I looked for a preference or something that will allow sending keywords, but don't see anything like that.
Sometimes, you WANT the keywords to be included in the email (to be used as a description) but I cant
I'm betting one of you gurus will know the answer! Latest versions of everything!

Hi Terence,
Thank you for your answer. My first thought was, "great - I've tried dragging them to my desktop, but the keywords do't 'drag' with the picture." So you're suggestion to 'export' and selectinh the appropriate boxes would solve the issue.
But it doesn't seem to!
In iPhoto, under the photo I'm seeing the file number and the keywords under that. Good!
But when I export as yu've suggested . . . still NO keywords (which I use as a title). Now, to your credit, if I "Command + i" the jpg image, I will see the keywords . . . but I'm looking to see the keywords under the picture in the email - just like it looks in iPhoto?
Am I doing something wrong? Thanks very much.
Larry

Duplicate Mailings From iPhoto to Mail

In using iPhoto to mail photos, periodically Mail will send two or three copies of the mailing with the photos. To stop this today I had to take the account offline. Anyone have any ideas that can help me solve this? It doesn't happen every time. Thanks.
Ken

Ken:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Not sure. Haven't heard of that before. It might be more of a Mail problem. Do post the problem in the Mail forum also.

IPhoto and Mail erased on MacBook Pro

I accidently erased iPhoto and mail from my MacBook Pro. Will using the Applications Insatall DVD help me get them back? Thanks for all your help!

You posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum. Did you intend to do that? Do you want the topic moved to the iPhoto forum? You didn't say what it was you updated.

Why did my iPhoto and Mail disappear?

Why did my iPhoto and Mail disappear? I also lost and had to reload Quicken. This all happened in three days.

The applications are gone. First Quicken disappeared and I reloaded it from the disk yesterday. Today Mail, Contacts and iPhoto disappeared. No one else uses my computer and I've had no other crashes and I haven't made any changes. I don't think anything else is missing. Apple is sending me disks so I can reload the missing stuff but they wouldn't speculate on why it happened nor whether it will continue. Thanks for helping.
