Save an attachment from iMail to iPhoto

I have a Mac Mini with Mac OS X 4.11 and am having trouble saving a photo to iPhoto. I finally had to print the attachment which left off some of the picture and then had to scan the cut off picture into iPhoto from the printer. The directions from support are very hard to decifer. There must be a better way. Please help!
Thank you
Ruth

Try this, drag the photo to your desktop and then import the file from the desktop into iPhoto. If this doesn't work, let us know where it goes wrong.

How do I save excel attachment from email

Hello... My received email attachment is an excel file but read as PDF format when opened from my iPad. Do i need Iwork apps to save it as excel file or is there any other way I can do it.

You use apps to do this. Look at Documents to Go, or Office2HD. Used with the superb free Cloud service Dropbox either of these will work for you.
In the email, you can just 'Open with ...' (one of the apps) and then save either locally or to Dropbox which will sync the file to all your laptops and desktops too.

How can I save an attachment from PDF portfolio from a datagrid display?

The reason I need this is a client is limited to a certain version of reader where this functionality is missing from the file menu. (10.0.1).
I was thinking either a right click on the item (custom context menu), or a save button elsewhere on the form.
As a bit of extra information, I am developing using flex 3.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Chris

To be honest, the data grid isn't even important. I would just like to be able to select a file and save it with a button on my pdf.

How to save image from email to iPhoto

trying to save image attachment from email to iPhoto

What is the problem? What does not work?
Either drag the attachment from the mail to the iPhoto con in the Dock, or ctrl-click the attachment and use the option "Export to iPhoto" from the pop-up menu (in Mail in MacOS X 10.10). Don't remember, if this worked in Mail in Mac OS X (10.5.8), as your signature is showing.

How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

Click and hold on the Save button, and a menu appears, listing each attached file’s name along with a Save As button. Select any individual file, and you’ll save just that attachment to disk. But the really nice feature is the final menu item—Add to iPhoto. That’s right; with one button click-and-hold, you can add all of a message’s attached images to iPhoto.

How do I save JPG from disc to iPhoto

how do I save JPG files from a disc to iphoto??

Use the Import to Library.... command in iPhoto then navigate to the disc and follow the prompts.

Is there a way to get the screen saver on user "a" to use iphoto pictures from user "b"?

Is there a way to have the iphoto screen saver use the photos from a different iphoto user? My husband leaves his account open and he has only old photos when the screen saver kicks in. I would like to have my photos be able to pop up on his screen saver. I need to find them in the system preferences screen saver place, but have it access my iphotos and not only his. How? Also, I would like a better system on organizing my photos.. I have them all in events by year and it is difficult of often find favorite specfic photos. Thank you. Melody

In short, no. The whole point of different accounts is to keep your data separate from his, and your photos are your data.
You could share a library? It can be a bit complex.
You can use Fast-User switching to switch over to your account - takes a couple of seconds
As to organising your Photos - iPhoto is a database and offers pretty much unlimited options for organising your pics, but it takes a bit of work to go beyond the basic and automatic.
If you take the time to assign Places then you cn see all the photos in your Library based on where they were taken. (Of course, that's of limited use if they're all taken in your backyard ) Faces means you can sort the Library based on who's in the Photos.
Beyond that, simple thigns like naming the Events will help - Xmas 11, Bobby's Wedding, Rome 2009 and so on. You can then search on those basic words in the search box.
After that: Keywording. The following is a canned answer I use to describe my system. It may spark some ideas for you.
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 40k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

I can't save a photo from facebook directly to iPhoto. I have to put in download and move it. How do I save directly to iPhoto? This is getting frustrating.

I am trying to save directly to iPhoto from Facebook and when I click down load it goes to the downloads and opens in Preview and if I move it from there to iPhoto is still has the preview border. I did find a way to download to my documents and move it to iPhoto but I should be able to save directly to iPhoto and the right click does not give me the option to save iPhoto. Does anyone have a solution?

Right click on the photo in Safari and use the add photo to iPhoto option - if that is not there then your only choice is to save to disk and then import to iPhoto

I try and save a photo (from Path) and it downloads but does not download (save) in iPhoto. The iPad I am using is new, I could perform this task on my old iPad. Why the difference?

I cannot save a photo on my new iPad (from Path) to iPhoto. The phot appears to download but then does not appear in iPhoto. I can perform the same task with my old iPad. I can also save an emailed photo to iPhoto. Thanks

How can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?

Hi all, how can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?*

Over the years this issue crops up again and again. Here are the cases I know about:
Case 1 - it simply doesn't work
I have a message in my inbox with a jpeg of about 300Mb. Select message, choose option "remove attachment" which is not greyed out, and it does not work.
Case 2 - it works if you save the message first
I move the message from the inbox to a mail box. Open the mailbox (select), select the message, choose option "remove attachment", result: the attachment is removed, a small text file is added and an error appears in the message "missing plug-in". The message size is reduced from 300Mb to a few bytes.
Case 3 - the option "remove attachment" is greyed out.
I've googled this at least 10 times and read all the advice about editing various files from the library and all the other hacks. The simple truth here is that the user should not be inconvenienced by such inappropriate behaviour. We're not used to this from Apple any more, not since OS X. Even Windows does this stuff painlessly. In fact this kind of function is something that Outlook and Exchange do incredibly well. If they didn't the corporate world would have ground to a halt.
My point: the remove attachment option should work all the time and should be redesigned. Right-click + save as + delete in the message would be a hundred times easier.
