The email server did not recognize my username

i try to mail picture   it says the email server did not recognize your username/password combination          

In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it
Of IMHO the better alternative is to set Apple Mail as the e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it instead of iPhoto

    What server?  What email are you talking about?  You're not exactly providing a whole lot of details.  I could assume you mean icloud and an icloud address, but no point in wasting time troubleshooting if you mean something else...
    And what's up with the picture?

    If you are replying to me, what on earth are you talking about?

    I cannot email a photo from iphoto. A message comes up that says " email server did not recognize username / password combination ".  There does not seem to be a way from inside iphoto to fix that. Any suggestions ?

    Have you set Mail.app or iPhoto as Mail client in the iPhoto Preferences? Mail.app is working more reliable than iPhoto as mail client.

  • How do I fix my e-mail password for I-photo?  Get this message, "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination."

    When trying to send a group of photos the e-mail requested my password.  Apparently I gave it the wrong one.  When I tried to resend, it doesn't ask for a password, just gives me this message, "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."  How do I fix the problem?  I tried I-Photo help, but it says "NOT available."  I'm getting VERY frustrated since my I-Book G-4 NEVER did such "STUPID" things like ask for a password to send photos!!!  
    I tried sending single photo, but get the same message.
    Also, my e-mail is NOT @bellsouth.net.  It is @icloud.com  I tried to change it but couldn't.  How do I change it on this site.  I tried to edit my info, but couldn't change the e-mail!!

  • The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination.

    OS: OS X Mavericks
    iPhoto: iPhoto v9.5.1 (902.17)
    I choose a photo, select Share, select Email, enter an email address to send to and click Send - then I get this error: "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination."
    In iPhoto preferences I have "Email photos using" set to "iPhoto"; I have an account added for Gmail (outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com; Port: 587; User Name and Password are correct for my gmail account, Use SSL is checked - basically everything is default for when I chose to add a gmail account and I'm positive my user name and password are entered correctly). I do not have 2-step verification enable for my gmail account (I've been searching for a solution online and noticed others mentioned this - this does not apply to my situation).
    Please help! What is going on? I just want to send an email from iPhoto using my gmail account.
    Thanks!

    Thanks again for responding, MrHoffman; my responses to your questions are below in italics:
    Have you tested the Gmail account via Apple Mail.app, and does both sending and receiving work?
    Yes, I have tested the Gmail account via the Apple Mail.app - sending and receiving work just fine.
    Have you confirmed that the Gmail user and password work with the Gmail web interface?
    Yes, I am sure it is the correct username and password; I am able to access the Gmail account via the Gmail web interface.
    Are you aware of and familiar with both sets of credentials present within each account within Mail.app?  In particular, have you gotten to the configuration displays the SMTP server settings?  (Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) > select Edit SMTP Server List > select the SMTP server account > edit the SMTP server settings.)
    I'm not sure what you mean by both sets of credentials, but yes, in the Mail.app I have set the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) to Gmail (and used the Edit SMTP server list... option to set the smtp server to use default ports, use SSL, and use "Password" authentication (again with my correct username and password for the Gmail account). I also have the Account Information in Mail.app set for the incoming mail server (maybe that's what you mean by both). Either way, I believe having these settings for incoming mail server and outgoing mail server are allowing me to send and receive email for this Gmail account through Mail.app.
    I've also had some success by launching Keychain Access.app and finding all passwords associated with the account — specifically and only the Gmail account, in this case — and removing them from your keychain.  This does mean you'll have to re-add those passwords — using Mail.app and no other applications — and see if things start working.
    I just tried this - I launched Keychain Access.app and removed all entries associated with Gmail. I opened Mail.app, re-entered my password info, and sent a test email to another account - this worked. I opened iPhoto.app, re-entered my password via the Preferences, selected a photo, selected share, selected email, entered a to: address and clicked send - this didn't work (same error message as before (The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination).

  • I hit iPhoto send and I get: The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination. -- then can't get back to re-enter, which was correct one in first place.

    I have filled out an iPhoto "postcard" format with a message and photo, etc., and when I hit send, I get the message "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination." I hit OK but it does not clear to refill the log-in -- and I believe the info was correct to start. I'd like to save (and not have to re-crete) the card, but see no way of doing so, thus am fearful of closing it (for good).

    When I try to send a photo from iPhoto by email, and error message reads "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination".  How do I fix this?

    Try to reenter you rmail account details in the iPhoto Preferences > Accounts tab.
    Delete the mail account entry by pressing the "-" button below the left column in the panel, then add it again by pressing "+".
    Also, it is recommended, to set "Mail" as mail client in the iPhoto preferences, and not iPhoto. This has been working much more reliably lately.

    Thanks for helping Christeneau.  You helped me too...eventually.  I say eventually because I was puzzled by your 'What does it say behind "email photo's using"'?
    I realised the problem was your incorrect use of the apostrophe 's', as in 'photo's using'.
    I just could not make any sense of this sentence at all, until I realised that you meant to write, "What does it say behind "email photos using".  What you employed was the possesive use of the apostrophe - a mistake that seems to have become endemic in english speaking nations during the last 10 years or so, brought on by the lack of understanding basic english grammar.  This has come about because of sloppy teaching methods the world over - it's not really your fault.
    It's quite simple: The apostrophe 's' should be used as the following examples show:
    James's apple, the car's horn, the world's atmosphere. The one exception is 'its shape,' where there is no apostrophe showing posession because that construction has been used as an abbreviation to 'it is', as in 'it's'.
    Plurals (more then one) NEVER have an apostrophe!  E.g. CDs, eggs, biscuits, vehicles, UNLESS to show possesion - a CD's label, the biscuit's taste, a vehicle's colour.
    Thanks again for you help.

  • Working on Lion, trying to share photos via email, error message: "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination".  Regular email works fine, don't know how to fix this.

    Having trouble with sharing photos via email on my desktop Imac.  Error Message when I try to send: "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination.  Normal email inbox/outbox works fine, error message only comes up when using "Sharing photos".
    Not sure how to fix this, please help.

    Are you trying to email directly from iPhoto? If so, check iPhoto>Preferences>Accounts tab and make sure your details are entered correctly there.

    Have you tried to delete the account from your Preferences and to Re-Enter it? That usually will help.
    If not, try to use "Mail.app" as mail client in iPhoto and not iPhoto. Change the the stting in the Preferences > General  tab to "Email photos using Mail". This is usually more robust thanthe setting "iPHoto".
