Thanks,

do you get a message? when you open photo browser?
If you want to add picture folders the photo browser window in Mail then leave it open, then open a finder window, go to the photo folder you would like to add, and drag and drop.
hope this helps

Hello All,
I'm new to mac and I just switched from windows. The photo browser Apple Mail doesn't display any photos, or audio or video. How do I fix this?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Rufus.Do you have photos in iPhoto or Aperture? I think you need to have photos in one of them (or Photo Booth) in order for any to show up.

How to revive iMovie Photo Browser?
I use iMovie 9.0.8 and iPhoto 9.4.2.
The iMovie Photo Browser suddenly does not see photos in Photo Browser.
It sees the iPhoto icon but does not see any libraries.
I now have to bypass Photo Browser by dragging photos from iPhoto directly into iMovie.
Can you tell me how to fix this?Try emptying iPhoto's Trash (yes, it does have a Trash folder that should be emptied from time to time). I believe I've read elsewhere that this action may fix the problem you are experiencing (although I don't have first hand experience with this).
You will find the command in the iPhoto menu item iPhoto < Empty iPhoto Trash. After emptying the trash, it may also be necessary to empty the Trash on the Mac (Finder > Empty Trash).

No photos appear in Photo Browser?
Just got a new iMac (it's sweet, btw) and have now jumped from 10.4 to 10.6. There's this new little thing in Mail called Photo Browser which seems to supposedly be connected to iPhoto to easily access pics. But my Photo Browser is completely empty, even though I have about 1,500 pictures in iPhoto. Is this just a small hiccup due to the fact that I transferred all my files and settings over from my other Mac (a MacBook)? Anyone else see this issue? I searched through the discussions but don't see this topic.

Know of any way to "upgrade" the library, while retaining all the albums (regular albums, smart albums, web albums) and events?
no, but it should not be necessary either with iphoto08. it's sufficiently recent. in fact, I did almost the same thing as you. i had leopard and iphoto08. I bought macbox set of SL, upgraded to snow leopard and then installed ilife 09. I don't have any issues seeing my iphoto library in the photo browser in Mail. cold try doing it from another account? make a new account, copy your iphoto library there, set up Mail there and see if it works there. -
Aperture library does not appear in Photos browser of FCPX. Why?
I can't figure out how to make FCPX photo browser to show my Aperture library. Apple support tells: open photo browser and you will see all your aperture libraries. But my photo browser is empty. I searched the web, this forum and did not find the answer. Any suggestions?
Thank you very much Luis Sequeira1 and Skyking.
I tried it and it worked.
Just strange that you should do something which is not listed in the official manual. -
Apple Mail, Photo Browser, Attachments and Yosemite
OK,
Help.
Anytime I want to insert a photo from my iPhoto Library into Apple Mail via Photo Browser in Yosemite Mail, it crashes.
My preferred method - Via add attachments - Finder/Pictures/Iphoto library doesn't work anymore. It now says Open iPhoto library.
Why does Apple change these things without like checking them out?
Anyone have an advice. I think Yosemite is pretty half baked. I'm a computer consultant and this is the worst release for customers since Leopard.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
Note: Since it's Mail that's crashing it's not an iPhoto problem but a Mail/System one.
Log into another user account on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists there. If it does then it's a system wide issue. If not it's an account issue.

Photo Browser in Apple Mail Just Stopped Working

After the latest update to IPhoto 9.12 my pictures folder has changed to a package... How can I change Pictures back to a folder instead of a package?
If Preview and Mail’s media browser don’t work, Gary, can you export all the pictures from the new iPhoto package back to folders and use an earlier copy of iPhoto such as 8.1.2?
I have both versions on my system so it may be the Mail and Preview media browsers are not accessing the new iPhoto package. I thought they were the new version but maybe not; I see a single iPhoto Library icon and when I control-click on it it offers to show the package contents... -
Aperture not showing up / displaying in Mail Photo Browser in Leopard 10.5
This is for anyone who upgraded to Leopard 10.5.1 and wanted to use Mail's Photo Browser to insert Aperture pics into mail messages. At first, it only displayed the iPhoto and Photo Booth folders in Mail's Photo Browser on my Powermac but I remember seeing it in the Apple store.
If you already generate previews in Aperture, this is pretty much a non-issue. But for me, it frustrated me for a long time. To make it work, the previews must be set in Aperture. I turned it off because it used up extra HD space.
In Aperture, you need to check the "Share previews with iLife and iWorks" under Preferences. Then decide which size and quality of a preview you want. The larger the size and quality, the better it will turn out when you use it in the photo browser. This dictates the image size and quality of what is imported into your Mail message. (I used the smallest size and a quality of 7, which gave satisfactory results without making the aperture library grow too much). I figured it I wanted to email a large, I could attach it separately via a standard export from Aperture. Don't go too low on the quality as it will not turn out very good.
Remember to go and generate previews for each folder or pictures, as those are the only ones that will show up in the Mail photo browser. The folders will show up but no pictures if you don't generate the previews.
It takes a minute before it refreshes in the Mail Photo Browser. Just play with the different settings and put them into your mail to compare the results.I had a similar problem and what I found was that I had some corrupt .avi files. Once I removed them all was well. I had to create a new iPhoto library and hunt and peck. I would drag part of the old library into the new library then see if iTunes would see the photos - once it froze then I knew what part of the iPhoto library to look at.

Stills Resolution - Photo Browser vs. Importing into Event
All,
I am preparing a slideshow with photos of varying size. I manage my photos in Aperture and usually use the photo browser in Final Cut Pro X to access them. Some of the photos are low-res (0.1 MB 286 x 369 pixels, for example). If I bring the example photo into my project via the photo browser, the resolution is cut in half (143 x 184). If I import the photo into the Event Browser and add it to the slideshow the original resolution is preserved. Its obviously an easier workflow to use the photo browser but many of the photos I am working with are of poor quality to begin with so I don't want to have to first export from Aperture then import into FCPX. Does anyone know why I am seeing this behavior?
Thanks very much,
Peter

You're probably transcoding to Proxy.
This halves the size of the imported media.

That's what I thought at first, but that is not what I see in my machine.
I set the playback to proxy media, and in the Proxy Media folder I get an alias to the original file (sitting in the Original Media folder, naturally), so even using proxy does not halve the dimensions of the still image. -
I have iphoto 08 version 7.1.5. I copied photos from recent - last import into albums. I then deleted the photos and emptied the trash. Today all the albums are empty and the photos are nowhere in the library. Have I lost them all?
OK, here are a set of screenshots with my step by step - maybe you will be able to spot where I've gone awry:
I find a photo in the Library that I will delete from an album:
I go down to my Albums and find the picture in one of them:
I hover over the pic so the little down arrow appears in the bottom right-hand corner. I click on it, then click on the Trash Can in the window that drops down:
Gone from the Album:
Gone from the Library:
In the Trash:

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser, some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?
I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
Here is the work around:
Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library. -
When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?
Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu. I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine. The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day. I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen. Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal. When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend. I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library. Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed. Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto? If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above. Otherwise, good luck with your investigations. I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.
