Scrolling an inserted photo in mac mail

I have inserted a photo using the templates found in the upper right of the mail window in this "air mail". Put once the photo in place the heads are missing so although I get a hand symbol I am unable to move the photo up or down.. Using latest Mac software and app software. Any ideas welcome.

It should center the photo in the frame. You can zoom in and out to get the whole picture or some zoomed in portion. It doesn't allow cropping.
If the image isn't centered in the photo, you need to crop it appropriately in iPhoto or Preview (or whatever photo editor you want to use). Then, drag the cropped photo into the frame.

Magic Trackpad - 2 finger scrolling has stopped working in Mac Mail - works in Safari

Hi,
I've been happily using a Magic Trackpad for a couple of years but just recently the two finger scrolling has stopped working in Mac Mail. It still works fine in other apps eg Safari so this seems like a very odd problem ie I can't imagine you can configure it to work in one app and not another! Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob

Thank you merleau. I had the very same problem and found your solution perfect. This helped me tremedously.

ALIGNING PHOTOS IN MAC MAIL

I am going crazy trying to align my photos in e-mail at the top center and then align left my text.
Easy to do and It always looks fine: when I am composing.
When friends receive my messages, photos are always aligned to the left.
Same when I review my own sent folder.
I even tried <center> and </center> before and after the photo.
I can't believe the APPLE would allow one to do this in compostion and then betray the command.
Thanks for any help!
John

Do your typing first, then add the photo where you wish.

Keynote for iOS file size: inserting photos from Mac first or from iPad?

Hi!
This one is for people with advanced and extensive knowledge of Keynote for Mac and for iOS:
Does inserting pictures in Keynote for iOS from the Photos app result in a leaner file size than importing the Keynote file with pictures already inserted from the Keynote for Mac app?

Hey Timmy,
I use Dropbox to get my photos to/from my iPad to my computer wirelessly (no iTunes). The process below is one I posted a few weeks ago for the opposite process than what you're wanting to do (from iPad to computer) but Dropbox will work both ways. Just set up a Dropbox folder on your computer and set up the Dropbox app on your iPad and they will both be in sync automatically.
Hope this helps!

---from a post I did a few weeks ago---
The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos in the Camera Roll.
From now on, all future photos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going to http://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos. You can then put the photos on a USB drive or burn to a CD or upload them to a photo processing website.
Hope this helps!

How are contact photos in Mac Mail and Address book used?

I am trying to understand who will see my photo (user account picture) that I can see in my contact listing from address book. Will other mac users see this photo when I email them? Will PC users see it? I think it showed up on my blackberry in an email I sent myself. Is that possible?

Nobody can see that picture but you. If you assign pictures to contacts, they will show up as a badge on e-mails from that contact.

Adding a hyperlink to photo in mac mail signature

I am trying to add a picture or template in my signature that when you click on it, it hyperlink to a landing page on my website or another destination.
So far I have been able to do this in text only. I would rather have an image than text that says for example "Click here for Video." I tried with a photo and embed the link to that photo with not success.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
thank you
Holyfield

Microsoft Outlook can hyperlink images. Neither entourage nor apple mail is true html composing. Only when composing mail in HTML format can you do this. I spent way too much time trying to get apple mail to do what I needed for template emails and email signatures. Sadly, I have to use Outlook to do what I need.
The question is, does anyone make a plug for apple mail that allows HTML composition?

Composing photos in Mac Mail

When using the email link in iPhoto, my default font is fine above the photo, but when I go below the image to continue typing, the font changes spontaneously to a small one. Can't find a fix in Preferences of either Mail or iPhoto. Anyone else noticed this irritating glitch?

Do your typing first, then add the photo where you wish.

Inserting a NEW photo while composing mail is tedious

Many times while composing an email I just want to take a new photo and add it to the email I am just composing.
I would expect this to be possible in the following straightforward manner:
Open the mail app
Create new email, enter adress and subject
Write the mail body
Long tap into mail body, select "Take photo" (a non-existent item)
Take the new photo which is then inserted into the mail body
Send
This operating steps seem most natural and intuitive to me.
Instead in the current iOS I am forced
to switch over from mail app to photo app,
take the photo,
switch back to mail app,
select "Insert photo",
select the album,
scroll all the way down to the last picture
tap the picture just taken
confirm again that i want that picture
then, finally, the picture is inside my mail body. Whew!
This is extremely tedious, counter-intuitive and absolutely not Apple-like.
I just can't understand why especially Apple, known for its simplicity of use, is unable to handle this extremely common use case in a decent way.
Or am I missing something?

Thanks for your quick answer.
Your description presumes that I know I want to send a picture in the first place.
But many times my initial intention is just sending an email. So I open the mail app and start typing. While typing or just before finishing the email, I get the idea of attaching a nice picture of mine, just as an additional niceness. So, there I am stuck, sitting in the mail app and considering if it is worth taking all the fuss of changing an re-changing apps just to insert that silly picture of mine. Eventually I always end up leaving out the photo because it is just too much of a tapping, swiping and scrolling mess.

TS3276 Having trouble sending jpeg images as attachments in Mac email.....they go thru as images and PC users can't see the SAVE or QUICK LOOK boxes that Mac mail has. One friend scrolled over the image, right clicked on it and saved as a PNG file.

Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

TS3276 Hi. Just started using Mac Mail on a macbookpro v10.6.8. I tried to send a message with two excel (for mac) files attached. One attached as a file, one inserted all the text into the message body. Help?

Just started using my Mac Mail program instead of web mail. When I went to attach two pdf files, one attached as a file, the other inserted all the text into the body of the email message. How do I get it to attach both pdf's as files?

I think you're confusing two different things. If you attached PDF files and one of them displayed the PDF icon in the message window, that means it was more than one page. If you saw what appeared to be the actual document for the other PDF file, that means it's only one page and it's normal for it to display that way.
However, I seem to recall there may (or should) be a button at the bottom-right of the message window that allows you to display those files as icons, even if they're one page. If not, there's a third-party addition you can use to add that feature:

How do I insert a font in Mail which is not in the Pref. scroll-down menu?

How do I insert a font in Mail which is not in the Pref. scroll-down menu?
I love Palatino, I have it bot in the System fonts folder, in the home/library/fonts folder and in the computer/library/fonts folder.
Yet, It does not come out.
Something else I should be doing?

Keep in mind that if the recipient of the email doesn't have Palantino active on their computer, they're not going to see that font on their end. Their system will replace any instance of Palantino with whatever font is they have set as the default in their mail program.

Mac mail wonky photo issue

I looked but couldn't find an answer to this on apple forums.
I'm using mac mail 3.6, on an iMac with OX 10.5.8. Here's the situation: When I send a certain friend an email, she gets it with a photo of me attached in the upper right corner. (She has a PC with outlook). I have a different photo that I use as a default and it shows up in both the system preferences and my listing in my address book. Why is she getting a photo of me that is only in an iPhoto album (as far as I know?) I checked with another friend who uses a Mac and he gets no pic from me on his mac mail. So why is a picture of me that is only in iPhoto showing up in the mail she gets from me? (she sent me a screen shot and there it was).
Thanks for any help or advice with this.

Thanks BDAqua. This answered the question of why it was showing up. Now, as to why she has it in her outlook contacts is another question best left to her.
Thanks.

The picture ID on my outgoing Mac mail is not mine -- it's the photo of boyfriend of my mother in law is appearing as my ID photo. I have no link or connection with anybody or other accounts whatsoever, and I don't have ANY third-party networks myself.

Nobody but you sees that photo, it does not appear on outgoing emails.
To remove the picture rather than change it, open Address Book and select your personal card, then from the menubar select Card > Clear Custom Image. Now the system will use Apple’s generic user picture in the login window and System Preferences’ Accounts pane. Mail and Address Book will remain blank until you designate a new picture in Address Book or System Preferences > Accounts.
