Sending pictures/attachments

My wife has a MacBook. Whenever she tries to add a picture from iPhoto she receives an error message stating, "Cannot send message using server..." any suggestions? Regular email seems to work fine.

does this happen when she actually tries to send an email or just add a picture to a message while composing it? If the former I would suspect a problem with the smtp server of your email provider. they might have restrictions on attachment sizes. can you test sending messages with pictures from a different computer using the same account?

Cannot send some attachments or pictures red circle with line (FIXED)

After three weeks working with support on an escalated ticket to find the resolution on some obscure site relating to something not specifically "Blackberry" I figured I should share.
Problem:
Cannot send attachments larger than... Not sure of specifics but well bellow our Exchange Max settings.
Cannot send pictures as attachments. or forward some emails with embeded images
Both cases would result in a red circle with a horizontal bar.
Our environment:
Exchange 2010
IIS 6.0
Blackberry (All up to date) devices connected to BDS
After 3 weeks of sending logs and trying settings here is what I found on the internet:
http://forums.iis.net/t/1169257.aspx

http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/serverruntime
I will let you read the above but essentially the data BDS is trying to push through IIS is too large for the cache (from what I can tell). Finally here are the changes I made to our IIS applicationhost.config file (copy paste to the bottom bellow the last tag). I am certain the number is still very high but I want to make sure there is no more issues. I have enough users wanting to jump ship already, I don't want more.
<location path="Default Web Site" overrideMode="Allow">
<system.webServer>
<asp />
<serverRuntime uploadReadAheadSize=" 52428800" />
</system.webServer>
</location>

I don't 100% know because we run all roles on one Exchange server.
I referred to Exchange server in my previous post presuming you were running the CAS role on the Exchange server. If you have that running on another server, I would change it on there as well.
Again, I can't see it doing any harm even if it isn't required!

Can't send emails with picture attachments

All of a sudden, I can't sent emails with picture attachments. I last tried this a few weeks ago and it worked, now it doesn't.
I have tried a battery pull while the phone is on, registered on the network again and had the service books resent and nothing works.
Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas of how to fix it?

Can you please provide more information? Are you getting any error message when attaching or sending the pictures? Are you able to send other types of attachments? Is this happening for all email accounts on your BlackBerry?

TS3276 I am unable to send large attachments such as video or pictures. No problem when using windows 7. How can I send large attachments? Thanks, ..Sam

How can I send large attachments such as pictures or home videos?.....with windows 7 it asked me to send using Skydrive. I downloaded Skydrive and still no better........
Thanks

How big of a file you can send over an email, is not determined by Apple, but rather by your email service provider. For example, if you have a Gmail email address, they let you send up to 25 MB of data
http://support.google.com/mail/answer/8770?hl=en.
To find out how big of a file your email service provider will let you send, do a google search for "your email provider maximum file size".
If you need to send larger files, look into something like "Drop Box" -
https://www.dropbox.com.

How can we send multiple attachments in a mail from iPad 2

Hi,
I am using a ipad2. I want to know how we can send multiple attachments through mail from iPad. I did not find any option of doing this. Is there a way to do this.
Regards,
Satyabrat

You can't do it natively on the iPad (unless you just want to send up to 5 photos from the Photos app). I use the GoodReader app which supports quite a few document/file types (e.g. PDF, Excel, Word, pictures), and from that I can select multiple files (including different types) and attach them to the same email.

How to send multiple attachments thru mail?

I haven't been able to figure out how from the mail application send docs, worksheets etc as attachment. Also how to attach multiple docs in the mail. Looking for help on this.
Sparashar

You need to start in the app that contains the files that you want to send as attachments and use that app's functionality to select and attach files to an email, and not start in the Mail app e.g. the GoodReader app supports multiple document types (word and excel, read only, PDFs, text files, pictures) and allows you to select one or more of them and attach/switch with them to an email.
In the Mail app itself on iOS 6 you can now press and hold the body of the email and select photos from the Photos app to attach to it.

Possible to send pictures with Gmail & from Lightroom ?

I just read the trick to mail from Lightroom with a email client.
Is there any way to do the same with Gmail ( or any webmail ) ?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Gilles.

Elements 5 does a very very nice job. I send pictures to a cousin who has a system that makes it difficult to retrieve attachments or even go to a web page to view my pictures. Elements can send an HTML email with the image embedded and it works perfectly for her and is so so easy for me. I have it use an Adobe server although you can use your own. I may be keeping Elements for that feature alone, sigh... I can't figure out another way to do this. I use Yahoo mail myself because it allows me to pick up my mail no matter where I am plus see my calendar etc. I can't figure out how to create such an email with yahoo mail myself.

Can't Forward Picture Attachments

When forwarding any email with a large number of pictures attached, the iPad will only forward a small number of the attachments. I've seen it do as few as 2 of 30 and as many as 6 of 19. It doesn't matter which of my accounts I use. The restriction, whatever it is, seems to be on the iPad, not the email account. This is better than my iPhone 3GS, which generally won't forward picture attachments at all, but it's almost as bad. The effect is that I have to wait and forward interesting pictures from a computer.

I have seen the same thing but I have given it time to download the whole e-mail and get the email addressed and ready to forward it exits out to the main screen as I push send. I showed it to the Apple Tech at the store who did not take any notes made me wonder if this is a normal thing.

Sending pictures through iMessenger on my iPhone5...

Up until a week ago I could send pictures through iMessenger on my iPhone5... now I can only receive them but not send them

how large are the attachments?

Can't send pictures through Mail!

I can send, receive emails, but I can't send emails with pics attached. Tried resizing the pics to smaller sizes, but no affect. I have sbc global yahoo and I've put smtp.att.yahoo.com as the output server for the 3 email accounts I've tethered (gmail, aol, uci webmail). I've set the settings according to what their help sites suggested but I've found no reason why I can't send any pictures. I can send pictures by going to the sites, logging in, and sending it there, but not through Apple Mail.

I have not used entourage for a long time. You should be able to attach files: images or documents should be no problem. Why try to send images from iPhoto? Just size them, and use whatever. I am sure you can import or export your address books between the two programs, or even from an older computer! Whatever is your ctive email program, you are going to receive photo attachments when someone sends on to you.
You can put whatever application icon in the dock that you want. My Office X would not install; I bought 2004, and did the default install and entourage is in the dock. I can remove it and bring it back as I chose to. I do have most of my 3rd party apps in the dock, for my convenience.
Whatever you choose to not use, just remove from dock; when you do, you are not deleting it from computer; it's still in your applications folder.
When in the finder, try going to the help menu.

Can't open picture attachments on my new 9360 Curve

Help Please! Older guy here is not able to open picture attachments in email - missing grandchildren pictures!!!

The sending PC is doing some weird encoding if you are receiving the images as text.
Do this.
From a PC, send a jpg attachment (attached! not inserted in the email, but attached -- there is a different).
Now, send the email to both your "older guys" email and to your own or someone else in the organization with a BlackBerry.
Look at the received email on BOTH devices.
Any difference?

TS2755 Sending pictures via iMessage - "undelivered"

Hi,
having iPhone 5 with iOS 7 (the newest one) and having problem with sending pictures via iMessage. The picture is usually sent and marked as "delivered" but after few seconds it´s showed again as "undelivered" with red exclamation mark. I have tried to reinstall the iOS, I changed the phone at all (like to different piece of device) and the problem is still there.
This is happening as well when someone is sending pictures to me - shows them the exclamation mark as well despite the picture is usually already delivered.
Many thanks for your opinions what can I do...
BR
Martina

Hello there, Martinacep.
It seems you were referred to us from the very article that provides some troubleshooting recommendations for issues with sending attachments via MMS:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
To begin, follow these initial steps:
If you can't send and receive MMS
You will need these to send and receive MMS:
An iPhone 3G or later
iOS 3.1 or later
A cellular data connection (MMS isn't available if you're using only Wi-Fi)
A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You might need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact (Contact your carrier for more information.)
A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network that is different from your billing cellular provider's network (Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.)
To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps
Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you're roaming on a cellular provider network that is different from your billing provider's network.
Make sure that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar of your iPhone.
Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
Make sure that you can send and receive SMS. If you can't send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above. MMS might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
Restart your iPhone.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
Remove your SIM card and insert it again.
If the issue persists, then follow the section entitled "If you still can't send or receive MMS, follow these steps" that follows the one above in the article.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Lumia 620: Unable to send pictures via 'Facebook C...

Hi!
I am unable to send pictures via facebook chat. In the 'attach' option, it does show 'photo, video, location, etc..' but I can select only the 'location' component. I was wondering if there was some settings that should be changed or that the mobile itself does not allow such activities. Please advise.
Thank you.

Thank you for replying.
Yes, I am using the official FB app from Microsoft. I tried the FB Beta, but I still can't send pictures. Take a look at the screenshot. I can only choose 'location'
