Sending photo attachments to iphoto does not work

Whenever I get photos in an email, and I send them to iphoto via the slideshow it never works. The photo gets "sucked" to iphoto, but when I open iPhoto it is never there. I am still save the images to my desktop and having to add them to my library. Any ideas?
By the way, I'm using iPhoto 5

donny,
A frequent issue lately, has been with leftover files from Panther, or earlier mailboxes. This problem is likely related to these leftover files:
If your mailboxes, or at least some of them, originated in Panther, I want you to read the article at the link below, and perhaps get back to me with some observations, before attempting any changes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301315
This issue of leftover files applies not only to mailboxes you have previously created (which are in the Mailboxes folder the article mentioned) but can also apply to those mailboxes in account folders created prior to the upgrade to Tiger.
Also, please report the size of each file or folder. Do not, however, try to list the files that are within the folder named Messages, that is found in each and every mailbox. It is very important to compare the size of any file named "mbox" with that of the Messages folder. If the mbox is greater in size than the Messages folder, then not all messages have been converted to be in the Messages folder.
The path, as I am sure you know, to the Mail folder is Home/Library/Mail -- within the Mail folder are one or more account folders and the Mailboxes folder.
The files that become the most problematic, in my opinion, are any leftover index files, and might be related to this issue with iPhoto. Let me know what you find.

Drag and Drop from Photos app to Safari does not work (Regression to iPhoto)

Drag And Drop from the new Photos app to Safari does not work. This worked perfectly with iPhoto before.
I use this a lot to upload photos to a Wordpress blog. Is there a way to make this work again? Its a major regression to the old iPhoto behaviour -- at least for my workflow.
Regards

Use the Media Browser. This was written for iPhoto but it still works for 95% of Photos. It's the first option you want:

Photo browser in Mail does not work anymore

Since upgrading from Leopard to Mt Lion, the photo browser in Mail does not work anymore and I also cannot drag and drop photos from iPhoto into Mail. Any idea how to solve ?

Have been working with LarryHN in an iPhoto thread. He posted this SOLUTION. Yes!!!
Try this - Download and reapply the latest iLife support update - iLife support 9.0.3 - http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/ilifesupport903. html

where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?

IPhoto does not work under Yosemite

I just installed Yosemite and iPhoto does not seem to be working. It says that I have to update iPhoto and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?

and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?
Which version of iPhoto do you have?
If your version of iPhoto is not an iPhoto '11 version but iPhoto `09 or earlier, you cannot update iPhoto but need to buy the upgrade.
In that case go straight for the "Featured" tab of the App Store, enter iPhoto into the search field and buy iPhoto 9.6.

Iphoto does not work after instaling yosemite

I installed Yosemite, everything works fine, but iphoto keeps on crashing en does not load my photo's.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

Update to Yosemite now iPhoto does not work

Upgraded to Yosemite. Now the iPhoto says that I need to upgrade to the latest version. It goes on to say that "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I then search the app store and it says "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Canadian Store". What do I do? Thank you for any help.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

By double clicking on a photo opened in event I get the picture of an exclamation mark instead of the big photo. also the slideshow does not work anymore.

When I double click on a photo opened in events I get a black question mark in stead of the big photo.
subsequently the slide show does not show pictures. I hope anyone knows if I have may be changed a setting?

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair Library permissions

Sender file adapter - filename containing * does not work

Hi All,
I am doing simple file-file scenario wherein my filename is something like
MATMAS05_XI20070911-150159-088.xml
there are many files having similar kind of name which are supposed to be picked
so simply I can go on writing <b>MATMAS05_XI*.xml</b> in filename
it is not working.. communication monitoring gives error <i>Error occurred while connecting to the FTP server "10.25.117.237:21": java.lang.NullPointerException</i>
But when I use character '?' then it works fine - '?' placeholder for each extra character
I am on SP 20.My adapter is configured properly. FTP server working fine with '?' or simple filename. So bit confused why it is not working with *
Are there some BASIS settings which have to be in place to work it out with * ?
All your inputs are welcome !!
Thank You,
Mugdha kulkarni

see the below link
/people/mickael.huchet/blog/2006/09/18/xipi-how-to-exclude-files-in-a-sender-file-adapter
The error related to the server connection.. also check the ip address is correct or not you configured correctly or not..

Photoshop Elements 11 - drag selection from photo to photo in bar below does not work

Hi,
When opening a photo it appears in a bar below, when opening a second one, I could make a selection with the Lasso - Selection Tool and drag this to the first picture below in the bar. Thereafter the FIRST picture would automatically pop up WITH the selection on it from the second.
For some reason I can not drag it any more to the picture below, It is like it does not accept it or like the first picture does not respond to the action?
Help would be appreciated since I don't know how to continue working with it.
Kind regards,
Leen

IPhoto does not work properly in os mavericks

The Instant slideshow format only displays one slide and the sequence then terminates. Using "Select All" and playing the sequence causes the sequence to display in reverse order. Bizarrely any asssociated music plays the right way.
Even more curious, Slideshows proper play normally.

Sending SMTP mail using Mailgun does not work from Azure, but works from on premise

I am using Mailgun to send email from my web application. When I test the application from my development box, the e-mail is sent and received I see the logs in Mailgun site as well. However, when I publish the code to Azure and send the e-mail, it is not
sent. I don't see it in the Mailgun logs either.
Is Azure blocking Mailgun SMTP? I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Jay

Hi Jay,
From your description, I guess you may send mail via SMTP. I don't recommend you use SMTP method to send mail on Azure cloud service. You can use the MailGun API to send mail, Please refer to this document (https://documentation.mailgun.com/user_manual.html#sending-via-api
). Or you can use Sendgrid, please see this blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/patrick_butler_monterde/archive/2010/10/11/sending-e-mail-from-windows-azure-part-1-of-2.aspx).
