Reduce photos for emailing

How could one reduce the photo size taken with the  new iPad camera for emailing as the photo is quite big in size. I have seen many similar questions and answers before posting this but none of them helped. Do you need a third party app?
using iOS is 5.1.1
thanks

Hi SSJ110,
Actually, I think the ability to reduce emailed images is a function of image size, not the source.  If I have a large image from a different camera or even the Internet, I get the resize options.  If the picture is small, even from the iPad (like some screen shots), I don't get the resize options.
Although I haven't narrowed it down totally, a file as small as 426 KB gave me the resize options (although Large and Medium were still 426 KB, Small was 39 KB, so it seems that is close to the line.)

  • Iphoto quits while preparting photos for email

    I'm using iphoto 4.03. recently, when i try to email selected photos, iphoto quits during the "preparing photos for email" step. i've never had this problem before. any ideas???
    thanks!

    Try manually setting the permissions on your iPhoto Library folder and contents as follows:
    Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
    1 - Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
    2 - When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
    3 - Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.

  • Control key not working when selecting multiple photos for email

    Okay, I can't seem to send more than one photo through email no matter how I try to "select them." I am able to select the photos from the photo library. I see the little scrolling screen at the top of the page and then use the control key to select the photos which appear in the larger screen beneath. The problem is, is that I can't send all of the pictures through email, it thinks I am only trying to send one. When I look at the big screen with the pictures I have selected it looks like only one is highlighted and no matter what I try (the control key, shift key) it won't select them, it pops up with an picture editing function. Is my iphoto screwed up? Help!

    Okay, I tried both. I clicked <done> at the bottom of the screen and the scroll bar at the top disappeared and then I just see one large photo. The only thing that happens when I double click on the large photo is that it comes back to the scroll bar at the top again, or vice versa. Does that make sense? I'm seriously wondering if my software is screwed up. My husband finally was able to send multiple pictures via email by creating a slideshow and selecting the pictures that way. (iphoto help says you are not able to select pictures to send through email through a slide show....go figure.) I still need to get out of this mode and don't know what to do! Any other suggestions?

  • Resize photos for email

    Is there anyway to resize a photo before emailing it? I don't see any options in the Photo app that comes on the iPad and the photos from my digital camera are 12MB RAW files. They are apparently converted to JPEGs before emailing but the files are still too large.
    I was previously recommended to ePhoto, but that program never completes the process and when I wrote to the developer about the problem, I was told that ePhoto does not work properly with the iPad at this point.
    Any suggestions aside from waiting until I have access to a computer?
    Thanks

  • Exporting photos for email question

    In Mac OS 9 my Quicktime Pictureviewer would quickly open my large JPG files and then I could simply click file export (while viewing each photo) and Pictureviewer would automatically resize (to around 800x600) and compress the photos as I exported them.
    Is there an easy way to do this now in Tiger? I can do it through my version of Photoshop elements, but it is a pain in Elements 2.0 as I have to resize each time, and click several other options to finally get what I want (a compressed 800x600 file under 200kb). In a nutshell, Elements just makes it too tedious to do when, say, I have a hundred or so photos I took and want to very quickly export them to a folder that I later mass email to family and friends.
    Any suggestions on how I can do this with what comes with Tiger (like Preview) or if I upgrade to Quicktime Pro will I then get a Pictureviewer for OS X that will do what I use to do?

    First of all, thanks!
    I did open mail and dragged the photo files to the mail window (I'm emailing to someone) and then on the bottom of the mail window clicked small and it reduced those photos to what I wanted.
    My question to you is when you speak of "iPhoto," is iPhoto apart of my X Tiger or is iPhoto an Apple internet service? I couldn't find "iPhoto" using Spotlight as being on my computer. When I double click a photo image I have on my computer, "Preview" opens. Is "Preview" a version of/or is the same as "iPhoto?" I can't find anywhere in Preview where I can click a button to email the photo I'm currently viewing.
    Much thanks in advance.

  • How to resize photos for email

    I have a MacBookAir 10.9 OS 0 in IPhoto...how can I resize any photo to send by email?

    With a web site, do not post high resolution images as the primary view of your products, that makes your site slower to load on lesser broadband connections, and more expensive to view on wireless connections.
    For a web site, use lower-resolution and smaller images for the primary view, and use a web content management system that allows for (for instance) clicking on a photo to view a higher-resolution image, and/or a content management system that allows the user to access a higher-resolution gallery of images.
    Default display of and mailing of larger and higher-resolution images chews up potentially very expensive data for folks on wireless connections, and usually won't be popular with mass-mailings.   Lower-resolution and smaller and even thumbnails with web links to higher-resolution images — which can incidentally also include tracker URLs, even in HTML-based mail — will consume less of the mobile recipient's cash, and will load and view much faster, or will load.  (On iOS, large messages will give the user the option to download the rest of a larger message, which means that most of your mail often won't even get viewed.) 
    Slow loads and large images can result in web connections get abandoned and mailing list clients drop off lists, too.  Thumbnails and text and simple HTML are better.
    As for "a good size", run some of your own tests on lower-performing network links, and see how well your content management system and your mail works in these situations — you're probably not aiming for customers on dial-up though I still deal with folks that only have that available — but you're definitely not going to want to assume ginormous network bandwidth with your marketing.  One megabit per second (1 Mbps) "broadband" links — and slower — are still very common, after all.  Also test your HTML with a few different clients, as there are various differences in how (or how well) HTML is rendered in various mail programs — some HTML mail looks like junk in some common clients.
    All of this stuff is fairly typical fodder for web and email marketing discussions, and not at all specific to OS X.

  • Adobe photoshop elements 13 to resize photos for email

    Can I use elements 13 to resize email photos so they are not to large to send

    Yes.
    Editor>Expert tab>File menu>Save for web.
    In the dialog that comes up, make the long side about 800 px. The short side will fill in automatically
    Check "Constrain Proportions"
    Select JPEG for file format.
    Make the destination folder different from the source folder so as not to overwrite the originals.
    Apply.

  • Resizing a photo for email attachment

    Hi
    Need some help as according to the help section on my Passport, I can reduce the size of the message by reducing the size of pitcure attachments by "on the image size screen, tap a size". When adding some photos as attachments, im not presented with any options for reducing the image sizes as in previous versions and therefore may be forced to send 3 images at a time which would be very basic. Have i inadvertently switched this function off somewhere and if so how do i address this issue.
    Many thanks as always in advance

  • Saving photos in LR3 for email

    I am encountering a problem with Lightroom 3 in emailing some family photos. I shot the photos in RAW & JPG.  I initally processed the photos in LR3.  Later I went back and made some addiitonal touchup work with the adjustment tools.  I tried sending the files to email and sending a test email with three photos attached.  Everytime I do this, I get the older version of my photos, without the latest edits.  I even tried renaming the photos displayed in my library and sending the renamed files.  However, I continue to get the receive r version without the latest edits in my test email.
    Obviously what I see on my screen has not been saved properly.  What can I do, to save the latest updated version?  I thought this was done automatically.

    I mainly use a MAC and have the email function working, but on my Vista laptop All I can do is make the mail client (Program) start and nothing else!
    But I think it helps if you understand the process.
    Apply export settings to file
    Export file with all adjustments and export settings
    Do post processing actions e.g. show in explorer, open in other application etc
    In the email export process, the first entry is the location where the exported files will be placed, for you, this is the most important. It is where your resized photos for email are exported too. If you change the last option to display in explorer, it will bring the explorer window up with your images for emailing.
    From here you can choose which email program you want to use and drag the photos to that program or attach them to gmail, the explorer window is open so you will know the exact path to the images.
    I haven't tried this http://lightroomers.com/emailing-from-lightroom-on-windows/19/ But it does seem to provide a solution for windows.
    As to your other questions,
    a program folder is the same as a data folder. It's just the folder where the program exists.
    an email client is an email program
    an alias on windows is known as a shortcut (Right click selected file in explorer, create Shortcut)

  • Photos wont resize for email

    When I am sending a photo to an email address it no longer asks me to resize them. How do I turn that feature back on? I have tried sending photos via email and they are being returned to me due to the image being to large.

  • Reducing Photo File Size

    I have many photos in my library that are in excess of 1.5MB. I would like to reduce the size of some of these photos for emailing. I realize I can choose the file size I want when using Entourage, but if I want to attach several photos, can I reduce each picture's file size without destroying the original?
    Thanks,

    Hi kayjh,
    Do you have Entourage set up as your default Mail program within iPhoto's Preferences? If you do, then command click to select each image within iPhoto,
    hit the email icon in the bottom tool bar and choose the size in the next window. Hopefully Entourage should open up with the resized images attached to the email message. I know this works with Mail.app. I am not sure how it works with Entourage.

  • Reducing photo size for email

    I'm stumped ... how do I reduce the size of photos for e-mail?

    If you are using a client supported by iPhoto you simply select the photo(s) and click email - one of the options is JPEG compression and another is photo size
    If you are using Apple Mail then you have a second selection available in the lower right hand corner of the mail create window
    If you are using a non supported client including a web browser then you must export the photos first reducing them as part of the export process

  • Ipad Photo - Making File Size Smaller for emailing

    How does one make pics smaller (file size) for emailing?

    The Photo Pad app allows you scale the photo. I just checked and it does also reduce the file size. You can email the scaled photo from the app.
