Taking a photo while writing a new mail

Many times I am writing a new mail to someone and I want to take a photo and attach it to the mail. I can do this by taking photo in Photo Booth and dragging it to mail but was wondering if there is a easy way to just do it from the email itself. I was hoping that someone has written a script that would just take a picture and attache it to the email.
thanks

Mail "hiccups" every few moments, seemingly while checking for new mail. e

Every few moments, if Mail is up and running, which it always is, it "hiccups". This is disruptive enough to throw me out of an email that I might be reading, causing the message window (the lower window) to go blank.

This problem is not solved for all cases.
This solution only applies to server-side filtering/redirecting of messages into imap folders.
I'm having trouble with client-side mail.app rules moving new messages into imap folders and not having the new message counts displayed.
This wasn't a problem in the previous version of mail.app.
Here's to hoping that Apple posts a patch to fix this problem soon...

IPhoto '08 - tag multiple photos while writing

Hi,
I'd like to know whether it's possible to:
Select several photos (yellow frame) and write the keyword for these photos rather than selecting the keyword from keyword assistant. I do not want to use the keyword shortcuts either.
The former iPhoto '06 plugin for keywords was able to provide this function.
Thanks

This is from iPhoto Help:
*Assigning keywords or checkmarks to a photo*
Keywords are labels you can add to your photos so you can easily find all the photos in a specific category.
You can also give photos a checkmark. This makes it easy to mark all the photos that you want to add keywords to later, or that you want to consider for a specific project, such as a book.
To assign keywords or checkmarks:
Select the photo or photos you want to add a keyword or checkmark to.
Choose Window > Show Keywords.
To stop viewing the keywords, choose View > Keywords again.
You can select multiple photos and follow the above procedure. You can create your own keyword by clicking on "edit keyword" and then on the plus sign.

Lost photos while syncing my new phone

I have a new iphone, plugged it into the computer to sync and selected my iPhone but it has updated it with my old iPhone details. Is there any way of getting back what was on my new iPhone? I had pictures I had not backed up and they have now gone and been replaced with what was on my old phone. I am gutted. Thanks.

connect the old iPhone backup
connect the new iPhone click restore->choose the new backup of the old iPhone from the list

TB downloads every mail, every time it checks for new mail, even if it has been downloaded before.

I now have about 14 copies of each mail, seems like it does not recognize that it has already downloaded it.

Hi, well, POP3 is not designed for keeping the mails in the inbox on the server permanently. Because while checking for new mails, to my knowledge it needs to go through all mails on the server's inbox to check whether it's already downloaded or not.
For this purpose, there is a client-side cache. The size of this cache can be configured in the following way via prefs.js:
user_pref("mail.server.server1.numHdrsToKeep", 10000);
I do not know the default value, but you could set it to e.g. 10000 (cache for 10000 mails). You have to check in your case which server it is (server1, server 2 etc.) according to the other entries in the config file.
However, you should not keep mails until "infinity", I do not know the maximum possible value for this, and I guess it slows down your download of new mails with increasing number of mails.
I have to admit, that I also use the setting above to increase the cache of my POP3 caches to have the mails available on my PC as well as on my smartphone's mail client. However, what I have done in order not to blow it up: In the web-based config of my mail hoster (GMX) I have specified that mails shall be automatically deleted from my inbox on the server after 3 month. This constantly keeps the number of mails far below 10000 . . .

My iphone storage is full due to my large photo library. As I want to go on taking more photos, if I back up my phone to icloud, can I then delete all my photos from my iphone to make room for new photos?

My iphone storage is full due to my large photo library. As I want to go on taking more photos, if I back up my phone to icloud, can I then delete all my photos from my iphone to make room for new photos? Or will the next time I back up lose all those previously backed up as it is a 'new' set of data?
I just want to find the easiest and safest way of not losing all my photos while being able to take more than my iPhones storage worth as it is already full - can someone help me please? I thought icloud was the solution to not uploading my photos to the mac but I'm not sure if the way it's going is working and don't want to delete photos or lose my phone and then find out what I'm doing isn't actually storing my photos permanently. Thanks

Hey EmilyEliza,
As you are clearly aware, it is important for you to have backups of your important data, including all of these photos you are currently keeping on your iPhone. While it is possible to use iTunes or iCloud to do backups of your iPhone, the problem becomes how to access those backups if you have deleted the photos from your iPhone. Once you have done the backup and then removed the photos from the iPhone, the only way to access the photos is by restoring the backups to the phone. See this article for information about backups made from the iPhone -
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
If you want to easily access the photos once they are off of the iPhone, another approach to this would be to import your photos from the iPhone into an application on your Mac, such as iPhoto. To learn how to do this, use the steps in this article -
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
Once those photos are on your computer, it is still important to back up those photos to somewhere else, so you can be sure of their safety before removing them from the iPhone. Your Mac’s Time Machine application is one method of doing this -

Mail won't get new mail after a while

Running Mail app on my Powerbook on OS 10.5.8. I use this as my work computer. More and more frequently I find that Mail is not retrieving my messages after being open for a while. The main account is a gmail IMAP account. I am also running Mail Act-On and MailTags, which are key utilities in my workflow.
I try clicking on Get New Mail, or "Synchronize IMAP Account," and taking all accounts offline and then taking them online, but these do not help.
Quitting and relaunching Mail sometimes helps, but not always! Is there anything else I should try? This is making me crazy!

I think you should open the Mail folder -- Home/Library/Mail -- and locate the file named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 and delete it, after having Quit Mail. Open each POP account folder in the Mail folder, and make sure there are no other files of similar name within these folders.
Deleting this file, and relaunching Mail will result in its downloading whatever messages remain on the server, and may give you some duplicates, but this import file will be renewed and fresh.

Appreciate your help in advance.
Happy New Year 2012.

There may be something corrupt in your camera roll, or a photo you saved from an email, text message or from the internet preventing them from importing. You might try transferring them wirelessly to your computer using an app like PhotoSync. If they transfer successfully, delete them from camera roll then take a new photo and see if iPhoto will import it now.

I have a gmail account set up on my macbook pro. One mail I sent with photos continues to repeatedly downloaded in Recovery. At the same time my Gmail won't download new emails into Inbox when I press Get New Mail. Help

I have a gmail account set up on my mac. A few days ago I sent an email with photos in it and this email now is continuosly being recovered. In the meantime my inbox has stopped downloading new messages, even when i press Get New Mail. How can I stop the repeated recovery of the email and how can I get my inbox to download again?

OK, I persevered and used the Rebuild mailbox option on Mail, actually had to do it twice, but now when I boot up and Mail opens all the previously received iCloud messages I've read on iPhone/iPad are pushed through.
Back to normal...

Just got new iPad mini and I can only get 140 pictutes in My Photo Stream while in my other devices I have 1000 photos in My Photo Stream. How do I sync to have all photos in My Photo Stream on this new iPad mini?

Hi Jose Sam,
It sounds like some of your photos are over 30 days old.
iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3989
I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
You may want to sync the older photos through iTunes to get them on your new iPad mini.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

HT5361 When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

Javax.mail.MessagingException: 451 Error while writing spool file??

Hi all friends,
Can any one plz tell me why Iam getting below error when Iam trying to send mail with attachment.Iam using Java Mail API.
javax.mail.MessagingException: 451 Error while writing spool file
Plz tell me what are the reasons behind it.
Regards
Bikash

The problem here is that the SMTP server was unable to write its spool file.
The error is probably on the OS side of things and has nothing to do with email except that the lack of the system resource is causing email to fail.
Have the server admin take a look at his error log to find out why the the user that smtp is running as could not write the file.

I lost my iPod touch 32 GB a month ago, and today I got a new iPod touch 64 GB. While syncing it with itunes, I got my music library, books and purchased items back, but I didn't get my photos and videos.How can I get my old photos back in my new iPod?

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

I bought a new MacBookPro moved everything from old MacBookPro, new machine runs 10.6.7 - but iPhoto won't 'upgrade' the library - just hangs up supposedly while writing new library. help. thanks.

How did you "move everything" over?
Migration assistance does not handle the iPhoto library well sometimes - the best way is to drag the bad iphoto library from the pictures folder on the new system to the desktop, connect the two systems together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old system to the pictures folder of the new system and launch iPhoto on the new system - it will open and convert the iPhoto library as necessary and you will be fine - once you test the iPhoto library you can delete the one on the desktop
