Pages won't share document via email
Just an FYI: I just experienced the same problem with the Share feature in Pages that others, as long ago as 2011, were reporting: Pages won't initiate the Share via Email function if your document title has a slash (/) in the title. Replacing the / with a dash (or, apparently a space) solves the problem. I'm surprised Apple hasn't, yet, either corrected this issue or at least prominently reported which characters cannot be used in document titles, if you want to be able to use the Share via Email feature. (I should add that the Share via Export worked fine with the slash in the title.)
Ok... so I'm an idiot: in Pages it works fine - I mistook the grayed out 'send via email' option for a normally clickable item, while it's just a header for the three (non-grayed-out) formats which you can send via email.
The problem stands for Word for Mac though - I promise!
thanks again

I cannot use "share" on Pages to send a document via email. I used to be able to do this. Not sure what I have done. Can anyone help me out?
No. iDisk service is not available in iCloud. There are other third-party services like Picassa, MediaFire, Photobucket, Tumblr.

I am guessing you are using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. This is the forum for MacBooks, the computer, so the mail works differently.

Cannot share documents via email in Preview...why?
I have osx Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro, as does my wife on hers. One really neat feature in Preview is the ability to "share" via email any open document. My wife can do this, but on my system there is no email option when I click the share icon. Why so? I've checked every setting I can think of.

creating a document on pages and trying to share it via email in PDF form used to be really easy...
How does this work now? helpI always just do file->print. Then in the lower left is a menu that said "PDF" and just pick "Mail PDF" from the dropdown and a new email is composed with the PDF attached. One step to print, one click to choose mail and you're done. I just tried this on the latest Yosemite and Pages updates and it works fine.

Sharing pages documents via email in pages
I cant seem to share a document via email unless i have the native apple mail app set as the default mail reader. I use airmail but still would like to share documents straight from pages. is there any workaround?
(I'm pressing 'share' in pages, 'send a copy' and if the native mail app isnt default then there is no option to click email)Robin Woodhouse wrote:

Yes but maybe No.
As you are running 10.6.8, the update 9.1 isn't required.
If you bought iWork as a package embedding the three apps,
Go to my iDisk :
<http://public.me.com/koenigyvan>
Download :
For_iWork:iWork '09:uninstall iWork '09.zip
and
For_iWork:iWork '09:iWork9Update5.dmg (I don't know if it was re-introduced in Apple's download web site.
expand and apply my Uninstall script,
re install the original package
apply the downloaded updater.
But, maybe, it would be a good idea to go to :
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
download :
MAINTENANCE 1.3.8 (for Snow Leopard) and ask it to :
check and repair permissions
Clean most of the caches.

I used to be able to send document as a PDF or Word Document via email using the toolbar.
I used to be able to send Pages documents as a PDF or Word Document via email using the Pages toolbar (not the iWork feature). Lately, it hasn't been working at all. No email pops up; just nothing. Is anyone else having this problem? Any solutions? I'm running Pages '09 version 4.1.
This Apple Express Helper is a dumb one.
File names with # and $ are perfectly treated by the share to Mail feature.
What is rejected is the slash (/) and it's perfectly normal.
Since the delivery of the first version of OS X, slash is an illegal character in file names.
Apple thought that it would be fair to build a piece of code taking care of such chars because they were valid ones in the older operating systems.
But they expected that users will drop these chars. Alas they didn't and users like you are continuing to play with matches.
At last, OS X 10.7 removed the extraneous code and now, hosanna, iWork refuse to export files whose name contain the infamous slash.

Can't forward documents via email
For some reason I can no longer forward any documents via email. When I click on the share icon I only have the option to forward via AirDrop of iMessage. This has only happened in the last couple of days and has not happened on my MacBook Air or my other iMac.
Any suggestions
Thanks
JonI am having this issue with trying to send pictures from my email applications in my phone. I use Yahoo, but not the Yahoo app. I also tried to use my work email to attach the picture to and send. In both instances, Yahoo and work email, I get a "Failure " message in my outbox of the email application when I look to see if the photo sent. I have received pictures via text before, no problem. I also tried turning of bluetooth, even though where I am currently located there is no wifi/bluetooth to connect to.

Latest version of Pages won't open documents created in previous version.
Pages won't open documents created before update.
I got the same issue, here is what it says now: "My document" can’t be opened."
iOS Mavericks 10.9.2
Pages 5.1
What I did to get this issue:
- My file was created a month ago in Pages 5.1
- Today, I opened the file normally
- I clicked "duplicate" in order to make a back up from the current version
- The loading wheel kept running for a few minutes...Maybe my cache memory too busy?
- so, I "forced to quit" Pages
- I try to open my doc again in Pages 5.1, now it's a failure!!
- Then i tried to open on another Macbook with Pages 5.1 = Failure
- I updated Mavericks latest updates = Failure to open my doc
- Try to open in pages 4.3 = It says: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document..."
I need a fix asap, it's terribly important to get my document back -
Iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open.
iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open. what do I do?
Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
All I get is a error tone when clicking share>send via email.
This worked before I upgraded to Lion.JT,
See if resetting your Mail Preferences default mail client setting helps.

TS3276 from iphoto can not share photos via email
error message says "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."
had previously been able to share photos from iphoto via email. Did not change any settings and cant do so now.
HelpWhen I try to share photos via email, iPhoto says the server does not recognize the username/password combination.
Use your iCloud Mail account, when mailing from iPhoto and not email or similar. Sending using iPhoto as Mail client is more robust, if the send "From" in the outgoing mail is set to your iCloud account. -

Why can't I suddenly send documents via email?
Why
Hi,
I use send file in Reader and I've tried both Internet and Google Crome. I
have Windows 7 and I use Adobe EchoSign to send the documents. You can look
into four emails I got from Adobe EchoSign where you confirmed documents I
had sent. As I said earlier why is it different now?
