Sending multiple photos in mail

I read an old post that said it was not possible to send multiple photos in mail from the iPhone. Well, I have done it, but in a rather clunky fashion.
I first made a new message to send, but left the To: address empty.
I then went to the camera roll and selected one photo by holding my finger on it for a short time, long enough for the "Copy" option to pop up. I copied it.
I returned to mail and pasted that photo into the message area.
Returned to the camera roll and copied another photo
Returned to the mail, entered 2 returns after the existing photo and pasted again.
I then entered the recipients address. (For some reason the paste option would not appear if I entered the To: field first)
This way you don't get the opportunity to make the photo sizes medium or small, but if the message is too large you are given the option of do that. It minimizes just enough of the photos to pass the size test, but it did work.
This is clunky. Does anyone know of a better way to do it?
Thanks, John Shanks

You can select more than one photo at a time followed by selecting copy if you have aleady started composing a message and if not, you can select more than one at a time followed by selecting Share instead which will create a new email with each photo added as an attachment.

There isn't an option for it.

Sending multiple photos over E-mail

I can't figure out how to send multiple photos from my iPhone 4 in an e-mail message like I can in a text message. Does anyone know how to do this?

Tap Photos > Camera Roll (or wherever the photos are stored) and then tap Edit, then select up to any 5 at once and tap Share > Email.
You can only send any 5 at a time probably due to the high quality of the photos, this makes the files larger.

When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box doesn't show up. Whats going on?

When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box option doesn't show up. The only options are facebook, message, It was there last evening and I used it. Whats going on?

There is a limit on the number of photos that you can send in one email from the photos app, but I thought it was five. In any event, you know that you can send mutiple photos from the mail app itself and you can send more than 5.
When you are typing an email - Tap and hold down in the body of the message area and select "Insert Photo or Video" from the black pop up options bar. Select the photos that you want to include from the photos app window that appears. Then hit return on the keyboard and start the process all over again.
You can insert photos, type text, enter more photos .... any way that you would like to do it.

How can I send multiple photos in an email?

In Photos, when looking at your pictures, click the Action arrow first (upper right), before selecting any pictures. Then you can tap select the pictures you want to send then click "Share" in the upper left. From there you can Email.
If you click and open one picture first, the Action button will only allow you to share that one picture.
(Yeah, took me a while to figure this out. )

Sending multiple photos with iOS4

Am I missing something here or does the latest update NOT let you send multiple photos anymore? Kinda annoying that they took that feature away.

It is possible to send multiple images via email by selecting them from the photo album first, then selecting share> email. It also looks like you now have the option to not downscale the images as was done in v3.1.3 via copy > pasting multiple images to email. So overall, iOS4 is a big improvement in this regard.

Unless these are very small photos or few in number they should use a sharing service, DropBox is good but there are many others.

I used to be able to send a photo from mail to my iPhoto. Can I still do that?

With a message open, click on the "save":
and click on "add to iPhoto" - that should work.

How do I send multiple photos from my ipad2... only let's me choose one!!!

how do I send multiple photos from ipad2

If you view the photos in thumbnail view, as opposed to full screen, then via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it at the top right of the app you should be able to select up to 5 photos and attach them to an email via the Email button towards the top left of the app (on iOS 5 it's via Share not Email).

How do I send multiple photos by email on my iphone 5s?

I'm able to send photos by iMessage, but not by email. How do I select multiple photos to send by email?

ckuan is correct.
Check to make sure your SMTP server settings are correct for your email provider.
To get to these settings:
Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendars
Then tap on the account you need to update the SMTP settings for.
Scroll down to the OUTGOING SERVER
Tap on the SMTP
Now you will see a list of outgoing servers that have been configured on your iPhone. The one that is currently set to be used with this particular email account is at the top and highlighted: Primary Server. So click on that one.
Now you will see the settings for that PRIMARY OUTGOING SERVER:
Make sure you have the correct settings for:
Host Name
User Name
Password
SSL
Authentication
Server Port
Tap Done
It will verify these settings.
If it does NOT verify, then something is wrong and you need to recheck your settings and password.

Select multiple photos in Mail

I recently upgraded to Mavericks. Now, when I have a Mail (ver. 7.3) message with multiple photos, I can only seem to select one photo at a time. I used to be able to Command-Click to select as many as I wanted, and easily drag them into another email or file. Is there some other way of doing this? Also command-a and command-shift don't help any more for selection, like they do in most other Apple apps.

timmilner:
Make sure they have an extension on the files. You can do this by Right-clicking (Control-clicking) on the photo in the email and selecting the contextual menu option "View as icon". This will show the file name and size and show the default application, i.e. Preview or Photoshop, etc. This will give you some idea as to what's going out.
If you add the photos to the email via the Finder, resize them at the bottom of the email window, you can go to the Edit->Attachments menu and select "Send Windows friendly attachments". Just another way to send attachments.

AiO remote can't send multiple photos to camera roll

After scanning 25 photos using AiO remote I want to send them to camera roll, but have to send each photo one at a time?
I can press edit which allows me to select all, but this does nothing, except DELETE? Also can't email multiples or send them to Dropbox in multiples, is that weird or what?
Any know how to contact HP about this? It does need fixing.
This question was solved.

@StanTheManII
Thank you for your feedback regarding the AiO app. I will be sure to direct this to the AiO app team.
In answer to your questions....
The app is working as designed. There is no current option to allow to multiple seletions to be copied to the gallery. The current design is to be done one at a time.
When emailing an attachment, you need to:
     1. make sure that your email is set up
     2. tap the share button while viewing the image, document or saved file
     3. tap email, compe and send the meail message
This allows for only the one image, document or file to be attached to the email. Again, the app is working as designed.
Again, I will direct your feedback regarding the additional features to the AiO app. Thank you for taking the time to post.

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!

I have upgraded to Yosemite and also updated the iPhoto application to version 9.6. I am no longer able to send a photo from iPhoto via email. I get an error message saying the server is not responding. But, when using the same server in Mail, I can attach the photo and send it. My wife is using the older version of iPhoto and it works fine.
I have checked the settings for the outgoing server, etc. and the Mail settings match those in iPhoto.
Could this be due to either the Yosemite upgrade or the iPhoto upgrade?

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)
