Sending iPhotos in e-mail

I am new in iPhoto....and I cannot send the photos as an attachment in my comcast.net account. I keep getting this message:
This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
This message could not be delivered because your SMTP settings are not set. Please use the Accounts Preferences panel to set the SMTP options for your account.
I have followed the instructions but can't seem to get a server identified??????? any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
Can you send any mail using your comcast.net account - from what you say this sounds like a Mail problem of having the incorrect outgoing SMTP settings to me - nothing to do with iPhoto
For my comcast account my username is the part of my e-mail address to the left of the @ sign and my outgoing server is smtp.comcast.net:unsername
You need to verify the correct settings for your account with Comcast - they are your ISP and only they know what you r account settings shoould be

    First unlock your caps lock key. Typing in all caps is inappropriate in online forums (considered shouting) and is hard to read.
    iPhoto>Preferences>General. Select the email program or how you wish to email photos from iPhoto.

  • When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app.  However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2.  I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2.

    When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app.  However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2.  I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2?  Any suggestions for getting the correct photo to show on iPad2?

    Update:  I was able to have the correct photo show in my email as received on my iPad2 by changing a setting on my IMac prior to sending the photo on the email.
    On the iMac, I went into iPhoto > Preferences > Email photos using > Mail (in lieu of "iPhoto").  This seems to have corrected the issue.  I'm not sure why.  Now the correct photo shows up when received on my iPad2.

  • I can not download the last Iphoto update, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    I can not download the last Iphoto update that I already purchased it by app store, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    Thanks for your replay,
    Finally the Iphoto 9.5 was installed...any way ..I had to go to app store to purchase it because the previous version did not updated autimatically... only shoed me that there is a new version ...but it guided me to the app store to purchase it.... and I did it because I did not know that the up date was free...and the sistem did not adviced me about that...
    I have the last up date of os x 10.9 already...
    in this new version I have no problem to send the photos by e-mail... but in the previous one it allways showed me an error message like ¨I should try later because the server does not work¨  but I tryed with 4 differents e-mail account that worked perfectly in the app Mail.
    any way, this new version is ok..
    thenks a lot

  • Problem using mail to send iPhoto's

    Folks,
    Since I upgraded to Leopard I noticed an inconveniency in mail when sending iPhoto's. If I send iPhoto's to my dad (running 10.2.8 on an old Mac) he doesn't get the pictures in an appropriate format. The first half of the mail is the layout of the pictures, but with blank "pictures", then after scrolling there's the same layout but WITH the pictures. It used to work before, so I'm thinking that something has changed significantly the way mail sends embedded content.
    Unfortunately due to the age of my dad's computer he can't upgrade.
    Any suggestions?
    Tx!

    It probably makes sense to post this in the iPhoto forum too - http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1192&start=0

    With a message open, click on the "save":

  • How Can I  send iphotos by email to BCCs?

    How can I send iPhoto pictures using e mail to BCCs?

    Do you have Mail open before you select any photos to email? If you do, and the BCC field doesn't show, you can make it appear by selecting the View>Bcc Address Field option in Mail. Then just enter the recipients in that field, add any message you like in the Body of the email and click 'Send'.

  • OS X LION Issues with Full-Screen; iPhoto, Image Capture & Mail

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing un-Apple-like issues (bugs) with Lion in Full-Screen mode.
    For example - iPhoto doesn't seem to like Full-Screen mode. If iPhoto is open and I connect a camera, for which I prefer Image Capture to retrieve my pics... Image Capture opens 'behind' the full-screen iPhoto, but I can't get to it. Image Capture shows as open on the menu bar in iPhoto's full-screen mode. If I go to the desktop (where it should be opening) Image Capture isn't 'on top' and clicking it takes me back to iPhoto full-screen
    Similarly, if I get mail and return to the desktop (the only way to see the dock) and I click on the 'Mail' app icon - I am catapulted into Image Capture... or iPhoto. Returning to the Desktop to click the Mail icon from the dock... takes me to Image Capture... or iPhoto. The 3rd try takes me to the Mail.app which is usually always open and in full-screen mode.
    While I'm complaining about bugs, I'd like to mention that I am fully dismayed by the loss of control in full-screen mode when using apps such as Mail or iPhoto. The Mail app opens an email to edit (such as a reply) but you can't access any other mail docs to 'cut and paste' info from. I can only click SEND or CANCEL.
    What if I don't want to CANCEL? I just want to go to another email and cut a piece to paste.. I have to exit full-screen mode which allows me to open two email documents at once, then cut and paste. Essentially Mail in Full-Screen is only a reader... not a work area. I can only access the document I have open, since it greys out the Message Viewer. You can't click on the message viewer nor access any of the features of Mail.app. You can only write your email and either Cancel or Send. Where is the 'hold on a second while I go cut and paste'? I don't want to cancel.
    Can't seem to use Safari since I'm constantly three-finger swiping it away. My cursor hovers over a text field and suddenly it's zooming in and locks text input. I have to iPhone-like swipe to expand to exit this inadvertent partial (very slight) zoom. Sometimes the zoom is so partial that I can't figure out what's going on until I just exit full-screen mode, close the window and start over.
    Seems like I'm starting over and over and over... just to do simple things. Inadvertent zooming, inadvertent 3-finger returning to Desktop, inadvertent changing apps... ugh.
    I'm willing to let go of the old and embrace the new future but so far it's been pretty uncomfortable for me to constantly monitor my overly sensitive trackpad gesturing combined with constant bugs and glitches. I'll save complaining about iPhoto's over-simplification (apparently for dummies) like the new Edit menu, Export menu, etc.. since it's more iLife than Lion related. Rate Lion: 2 out of 5 stars for ease of use & features complicated by unrefined software issues.

    I've tried follwoing these instructions but I have an issue with
    # Create snort user. The intention is to let user snort have access only to the snort database.
    $ sudo createuser -U _postgres -P snort
    Password:
    Enter password for new role:
    Enter it again:
    Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) n
    Shall the new role be allowed to create databases? (y/n) n
    Shall the new role be allowed to create more new roles? (y/n) n
    It keeps telling me "could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory"
    I'm running OSX Mountain Lion, and have verified using serveradmin status postgres that it is up and running.

  • Issues since I moved from MobleMe to iCloud; e.g. synch with Apple TV, sending photos on e-mail, etc.

    I have an Apple TV, an iPhone, a MacBook, a mini iPad and aTime Machine. I use my Time Machine as a wireless router. Since I switched from MobleMe to ICloud, I have had all kinds of issues. Example: things don't always synch. Have not been able to see recent photos I downloaded from iPhone and a digital camera on my Apple TV.
    I have trouble sending i-photos to e-mail, synching with Apple TV, or moving photos to Flicker. When I send photos via eMail it still shows my address as <MobleMe [email protected]>. Then I troubleshooted. I thought I fixed it by fully migrating to iCloud, as it gave me message that it still allowed me to move photos to iCloud, even though MobleMe was no longer functional. But, it did it again when I tried to send iPhotos. It showed my address in the e-mail sender field as MobleMe <[email protected]>, but it still gave me same error message that I could not send it. There is a drop down in the field, but there are no other options, not can I change it. How do I get rid of the MobleMe before my e-mail @mac.com address?  

    The problem is with your router, so the Apple supprot forum can not really help.  If they are connecting to the same router it should not matter if you use WiFi or eithernet it is the same network either way.

  • When using iphoto to e-mail photos the resulting e-mail doesn't show up in sent folder of mail.

    There seems to be a an incompatibility within iphoto when you share images from within Iphoto using Apple Mail. The e-mail seems to send fine but when you try to go back and look for it in the sent folder of mail, it isn't there....
    Also, when the recipient of the e-mail with the photos replies to your e-mail, the resulting reply that you receive in Apple Mail is not viewable. It shows up in the list of e-mails, but can not be opened...
    Anyone else seeing these issues?

    Nope - have not seen that complaint here are all
    Just to verify - you are using Apple Mail?  It does not sound like it. You set it in the iPhoto preferences. If you are using the default iPhoto mail rather than Apple mail then there is no sent folder and people on PCs may have trouble viewing the photos
    If you are using Apple mail try exporting a photo and attaching it and try doing one using the Mail media browser and see - as far as mail is concerned there is no difference between starting the mail from iPhoto and starting it from mail

  • Unable to send iPhoto by email since changing email P/W

    unable to send iPhotos by email since changing email P/W

    What version of iPhoto and system are you using? Are you using iPhoto as the email client or are you going thru Mail?
    Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account.  Close iPhoto, reboot, relaunch iPhoto and add the email account back.

  • I can't send iPhotos in email any longer.

    The error message is : Your email did not go through because the server did not reply. It used to work before.

    Have you recently enabled two-step verification?
    Then you may need to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto.
    Other forum members reported, that creating  an app-specific password is required, see the post below:
    Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
    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)

  • Can't send smartform to external mail address

    Hi, everyone.
    Now, after creating some self-defined smartforms, we want to send its
    PDF copy to
    our external mail address. From this point, I had some try.
    Reference to SAP Library, I make a testing program named 'YPDF_TEST'.
    However, one exception always exists when running and error message id
    is 'XS806' - means
    "No delivery to &, invalid recipient address"
    I filled the address with following fields.
    [ dev_mail_recipient-logsys = 'CLNT600'.
    dev_mail_recipient-objtype = 'RECIPIENT'.
    dev_mail_recipient-objkey = '[email protected]'. ]
    I just can't understand the real reason why it doesn't work.
    Through debugging, I found the error occurs when handling the following
    codes
    in function "SX_ADDRESS_TO_DEVTYPE".
    [ swc_create_object o_recipient 'RECIPIENT' recipient_id-objkey.
    swc_get_property o_recipient 'CommunicationType' m_recipient-type.
    get_property_longvalue o_recipient m_recipient-address. ]
    On the current situation, if can't come over this problem,
    we may not build the connection and don't provide information in time.
    Failed to send, I yet try another function - added the tail but on earthdidn't get it ~~~
    Would you give me some hints or advice ?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    You can follow a different approach. Send the output of the Smartform to the spool.
    You have a Function Module to read the spool and convert it to PDF . Then there is one more function module to attach the PDF and send it as a mail.
    You need to configure SMTP in Tcode : SCOT.
    Search the forum with emailpdfattachment
    You have umpteen postings available.
    Pls reward if useful.

    Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

    Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
    Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password.  On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
    See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
    Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo.
