Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.

Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.
I have this problem that started a while ago and seems to be getting worse.
Here are the different scenarios.
-If I try to share a photo to email within iPhoto, it will insert the image file name in the mail message, but no image icon or opened image. In iPhoto Preferences under General I have chosen to use Email Photos using Mail.
-If I choose to use iPhoto to send the photo, it will compose the message and the photo is viewable. If I send the message i can view the photo within the email I sent to myself. Nothing happens when I double click on the photo in the Mail message. Nothing happens when i control click on the photo in the mail message. Nothing happens when I try to drag the photo to the desktop from the mail message. When I try to save attachments from the email and choose a place to save it, the save button is grayed out and it cannot be saved. When I check the mail message it says there is an attachemnt but there is no file size listed.
-If I use the stationary within Mail app I cannot drag a photo into the placeholder, I get a circle with a line through it symbol when I try. It happens if I try to drag a photo from the desktop or from the media browser within Mail app.
-If I drag the photo to the desktop from iPhoto, I can double click it on the desktop and it will open in Preview.
-If I then control click on the same photo on the desktop and scroll to share/email, the generic photo icon will be inserted in the mail message. If i double click the photo icon in the mail message I get a message it can't be opened because it is empty.
-If I drag that same image to the mail message body the same thing happens.
-If I send that email to someone they cannot open the image file.
What I can do:
- I can drag that same image file on the desktop to my dropbox folder and it will upload. From there I can go on my iPad and download the photo and send it through email just fine.
-I can open the same image file on my desktop in Preview, I can copy and paste it into a mail message and the image will be viewable in the mail message by me and by the recipient.
-I can drag that same image on the desktop to my safari browser window and it will be viewable in the page. i can then copy and paste that image into a mail message and it is viewable in the message. I can then send that email message to myself and i can control click on the image and get all my options. It also shows as an attachment with the size of the image file in the mail message.
I can send that message to someone and they can see the photo and open it fine.
-If I send that same email to me I can see the photo within the mail. If I then drag that photo to the desktop I cannot use it again to put in an email as the same problem happens again.
I have tried all scenarios in my user account, another users account and in a guest account. The same happens in all. I am guessing because of this it is not a corrupt preference file, unless all of the preference files are corrupt. The guest user account I added a new email account so it was brand new and still had the problem.
I am stumped, all and any help is appreciated.

Another problem that may be related….
I have Snapz Pro. I used to be able to save the snaps to my desktop or a folder. Now when I take a screenshot and try to save the file to my desktop or a folder on my desktop I get this message "Files cannot be created in the selected location. You do not have permission to write to the selected location. Please choose a different location." I have found that i can only save the file to the clipboard. I have repaired permissions many times and still I have this problem.

Impossible d'envoyer une photo par mail avec iphoto

Bonjour ; lorsque je veux envoyer une photo par mail avec iphoto, je clique sur envoyer : une petite fenêtre s'ouvre avec un triangle jaune contenant un point d'exclamation, je clique ensuite sur OK (il n'y a rien d'autre à faire) la fenêtre se ferme et la photo n'est pas envoyée. Et ceci, quelque soit le destinataire.
Quelq'un peut-il m'aider ? Merci d'avance !

Google translation
Hello, when I want to send a photo by mail with iPhoto, I click send: a small window appears with a yellow triangle containing an exclamation point, I clicked on OK (there is nothing to) the window closes and the picture is not sent. And this, whatever the destination.
Quelq'un can help me? Thank you in advance!
In the iPhoto preferences do you have iPhoto or Mail set as your send mail with preference?
If you right click on one of these photos and "reveal in finder" does a finder window open with the photo?
Can you open and view the photo in iPhoto? Can you edit it?

How can I send photos in mail as attachments instead of in the body of the message?

I want to send photos as attachments to email instead of in the body of the message. I have searched through preferenced in both mail and iPhoto but can find nothing that lets me do this.

1. As Rysz says, Mail does send them as attachments. If seeing the preview is problematic for you, then right click on it in the Mail Message window and select 'Show as Icon'.
2. If you're worried about how they are received... Mail defaults to sending RTF email. A few older applications on other OSes have problems with these. A lot of users on other OSes can't figure out how to set their Mail applications to work with them. If that's the problem, use Plain Text as Larry says.

Why is there more problems with sending photos in emails than before. I never had problems before.

I am having problems that I never used to have sending photos in a Yahoo email. I can't load as many photos and it takes a very long time to load. I always check my attacment by going to the sent file and when I download a photo it is way bigger than the screen and I have to zoom down to 20% in order to see the photo at it's intended size.

Larry HN~If you want to control the size of the photos select them in iPhoto and export to a desktop folder using the various size options available during export - then attach to your e-mail from the folder
I followed the above instructions and it worked very well. I found I could click on the photo in iphoto and drag it to the desktop as well and then attach to my email from the desktop. If I choose the export method I can choose a different size as there are 4 sizes to choose from and that seems to work well for Yahoo Mail altho I noticed that the larger size photo I chose the longer it took to download as an attachment in a Yahoo email.

IPhoto 9.6 bug while trying to send photos by mail

When I try to send photos via email directly from iphoto I have the following error message :
Votre message électronique n’a pas été transmis car le serveur n’a pas répondu. (Your email hasn't been sent because server didn't ansewer, check you internet connexion, etc...). Of course my internet connexion is working, so, has anyone ever had this bug ?

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)

Send photos by mail

I don't seem able to send annoys my photos via mail, after installing the iPhoto replacement, PHOTOS.
When I select my photo from PHOTOS, then select the SHARE button at the top, it opens my options (Facebook etc), but my MAIL option is not available to select as an option to use (I can see it, just not able to select it).
I never had issues with iPhoto, is there something Im not doing?

Is the (Apple) Mail app icon visible, but not Outlook? If it's there what happens if you click it - it might just open the default email client and could be a GUI error not showing the Outlook icon.
I see:
Also I assume you see the same via File>Share menu:

Quick way to send photos from Mail

Is there a quick way to send photos from my iphoto library from the Mail application? I heard that 10.5 will have a photo browser as part of email but I was wondering if there is a way in Tiger? Maybe a third party plugin or something like that.

Try this hint from Mac OS X Hints.

Iphone6/ios8 not sending photos via mail or messages

I can't send photos from my iPhone 6. I have tried both Mail and messages. Nothing happens. The Mail window comes up and allows me to fill in the To address, subject etc. I can click on Send but nothing happens. The Photo doesn;t go into the outbox or the sent folder.
The only thing I may be doing differently is I am not using iCloud to store my photos. Any suggestions? (I already tried resetting my iPhone)

Thanks for the mail forum tip
Yeah, I use the Media Browser in Mail. It's just quicker, more convenient when in iphoto to use that function.
Will post on the Mail Forum now, hope that helps . . .
Thanks again,

Droid Charge - 3rd one, same problem with sending photos via text (MMS)

Sending photos via text messaging (stock messaging client) does not work consistently.
In a 4G area, the texts go through fine with minimal errors (perhaps 1 out of 20 failures to send)
In a 3G or less, the texts give me an error message of "Failed" or pending, whether or not the recipient gets it (usually the recipient does not get the message) - this is true of recipients with AT&T, Sprint and Verizon service with smartphones and Blackberries.
If I do not delete the thread, I get the message "Too many unsent multimedia messages" and the phone will not initiate the send. The phone will, however, continue to try to sending the photo, causing very rapid battery drain.
The last phone was replaced because the phone was not closing out the message, according to the last technician to whom I spoke.
Is there something else I can do to get the full functionality of the phone I paid for? This is an extremely frustrating issue, and makes me regret switching to Verizon.

Hi moonchef!
Sending pictures is something I do on a daily basis, so I know how important this is! It is true that pictures have to be sent over the VZW network and not Wifi. I would like to ask you if you resent the same picture that failed? Or did you send the same picture again, but in a separate message? Please try sending it again separately and let me know the results. Thanks!

PROBLEMS SENDING PHOTOS VIA MAIL BUTTON & SHARE-EMAIL

When I try to send pictures using the SHARE - EMAIL or with the EMAIL button, I get the SIZE OPTION message, and following that nothing, the photos are not loading to an email.
MAIL is selected in PREFERENCES.
This is a sudden problem, previously it has worked without difficulties, and as far as I am aware I have not made any changes.
Am also experiencing MAIL problems with SAFARI. When I try to send a webpage link via the *mail this web page* button on the toolbar, or from the *File Dropdown* I've suddenly started getting this message:
'' *An email message can’t be created to send the link because Safari can’t find an email application. You can use the Mail application included with Mac OS X to send mail. To do so, you might need to install Mail using the Mac OS X Install discs.* ''
Anyone else experiencing similar problems?
Can anyone help? Please!

Sending photos as mail attachments to PC will not open

Photo attchments sent to a PC via Mail will not open.
As per suggestions I have added the .Doc extension to JPEG s and atached to the bottom of the message.
Does any one have any further ideas I can try?
Thanks.
Sandy

Do not change the extension to .doc - and stop listening to advice from whatever source you got that idea from. Changing the extension to .doc will make the recieving machine think the file is a Microsoft Word document... and it isn't, so Word won't be able to open it. The extension needs to be .jpeg or .jpg if the file is a JPEG.
As to opening attachments, make sure you have Edit -> Attachments -> Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments checked. You may still have problems with recipients who are using Outlook, though. Outlook is broken when it comes to understanding HTML e-mail messages, and Mail likes to send HTML messages. (In fact, recent changes to Mail will make your message HTML, regardless of whether you have specified it to be plain text, in certain situations.)
If you find that you are unable to send to people using Outlook, and you aren't willing to ask them to switch to a non-broken mail client just for you, then you could try something like setting up a Picasa or Dropbox account and uploading your photos there.

App Photos. Unable to send photos with Mail on ios8.

Since i am on ios8: I can't send selected photos (4-5) with Mail. What to do to make sure Mail will send my photos ?
Gilles P.

I have had no problems mailing photos from the Photo App in iOS 8 (now on 8.1.1).
What problem are you having?

Sending photos by mail from my iPad

When I click on a photo to send by mail, it stays in the outbox and won't be sent.
I have had the iPad for more than a year and it's the first time that's happening.
No problem with any other mail.

Try reconnecting your WiFi modem.

Problem when sending report to mail ID's in BIP

Dear All,
We are using BIP 10.1.3.3.1.
I generated some reports .
I configured SMTP server and i can aable to send my reports to users ID's
also.
But i have to send my reports to 10 users(one ID is having 30 characters
length).
while i am giving the ID's in
TO: (it is taking up to 80 characters ie 2 ID's and 20 chars)
For that what i have to do?
My plans are
1)Grouping the 10 ID's
But there no permition for grouping in my company.
Then i left it.
2)Tring to increase the length of that 80 chars to >300.
for that i checked the tables which are created while installing the
schedular schema.
i found the table names as follows
Qrtz_blob_trigger
Qrtz_calender
Qrtz_cron_trigger
Qrtz_fired_trigger
Qrtz_job_trigger
Qrtz_scheduler_state
Qrtz_simple_trigger
Qrtz_locks
Qrtz_paused_trigger_grps
Qrtz_trigger
Qrtz_ trigger_listener
MY doubt is
1)that length inf is in which table
2)which field name
3)if i change that length is there any impact on other tables
It is veryyyyy Argent.
Plz any body help me .
Regards
Subbu..

Hi,
If you are using 6i,
Run the report in "batch" mode. This will not bring up the send mail dialog.
For multiple email id's, you can give destype=mail desname=[email protected],[email protected],..etc. or use distribution.
In 9i, the standard SMPT protocol is used. Hence you will not get this problem.
You can see example "Bursting and Distributing"
