Trouble emailing photos from iPhoto

I'm hvaing trouble emailing photos from within iPhoto. I'm constantly getting this error message. I've checked the accounts and the usernames and passwords are all entered correctly. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

That's been a problem for a number of users lately.  Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete your email account there and then add it back from scratch. Then try again. 
If that fails reset your mail client to Mail in iPhoto's General preference pane and use Mail.  Mail has stationary photo templates similar to iPhotos but also saves a sent copy of any emails your send.

  • Having trouble emailing photos from iphoto

    Hello
    I am having problems emailing my iphotos directly from iphotos on my Mac pro 10.7.2 Lion. I keep getting a message that says email server does not recognize username/password combination. I checked and rechecked everything. I even emailed from the mail icon to make sure my email was set up correctly and my email was sent with no problem. Please help!

    See the forum:

  • How can I email photos from iphoto '11?

    I am having trouble emailing photos from iphoto '11.  When I put the recipients address in, it disappears when I click "send" and I get some message about "key chain" and iphoto wants to use my confidential information????    What I ended up doing is dragging and dropping the photo into the email, but I don't want to have to do that all the time.  I just got this MacBook Pro and iphoto program so am experiencing a learning curve.  I must be doing something wrong.  Is it safe to "always allow" this "key chain" info?
    Thanks, you wonderful community.
    Sheila
    Update!   I just tried this again by "allowing" for this one photo.  I'm not sure what I'm allowing, but the photo was sent this time.  Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Sheila

    Sharing you are allowing the email to be sent.
    Your SMTP has a password and it is confidential, if you do not agree it does not have access to that password.

  • IPhoto states server did not reply so I cannot email photos from iPhoto

    I cannot email photos from iPhoto.  I checked the outgoing mail server and port and they are correct. When I try to email photos the message i'm getting is the server did not reply check your internet connection and try later.. but my internet connection is fine. Any suggestions? I have Yosemite 10.10.3 software installed.

    Do you have two-step verification enabled  and are trying to mail from your iCloud account?
    Then check this solution:
    If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.
    See the post below:
    Re: 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!in response to Gary Kissler
    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)

  • Problem emailing photos from iPhoto after installing OS 10.5.1

    Since installing Leopard I have had problems emailing photos from iPhoto. I can send from my laptop to another Mac without problem BUT when I try to email pix from iPhoto to a PC user or to post on my Google Group board it only sends the 'title' I gave it in iPhoto or the 'PC134567.JPG' the camera assigns it. I have tried exporting and attaching to emails but that doesnt work either .. at least not all the time. AND when I do send them from iPhoto to my office PC they arrive NOT as an attachment but are embedded in the email message .. seriously what the heck is going on and why is this not working the way it used to pre-OS 10.5.1? What changed? How can I make this work the way it used to?
    Thanks for reading and hopefully solving my problem

    Thank you again .. I got home and immediately tried the fix you suggested .. sent a 'test' email and it worked perfectly.

  • Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

    Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
    i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
    Any ideas ?

    This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
    Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
    I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
    And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

  • Why when I email photos from iPhoto do they not show in my sent items in my mail ?

    Why when I email photos from iPhoto using the share option does the email not show up in my sent items box in Mail. The emails are arriving ok but I do not have a record of the email being sent. Bit confused. I am new to my iMac .

    If you are using the iPhoto email client there is no sent mail box
    My suggestion is to set Mail as your email client and then you have everythin in Mail and have a sent mail box

  • Emailing photos from iPhoto 09 via Mail always produces same photo size

    I'm trying to email photos from iPhoto 09 using the Email button. No matter what photo size I choose (Small, Medium, Large, Actual Size) in the subsequent compose dialogue the resulting email always shows a small embedded photo. Any tips?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    You also need to set the size in the New Message Window in Mail

  • Why can't I email photos from iPhoto?

    I cannot email photos from iPhoto. I get an error message that says " the email server cannot send this because of an incorrect user name and password". I have version 9.4.3 of iPhoto and O/S - OSX 10.8.3

    In the iPhoto preferences delete and re-enter the account

    IMHO the better solution is to use Mail. Set it as the email client in the iPhoto preferences

  • When I email photos from iPhoto.....

    When I email photos from iPhoto (usuallly with some text as well) , the sent emails do not show up in the Sent file like they used to before updating to Lion.
    I can cc myself but I would much prefer to see each email as a regular sent email with the recipient readily visible.
    I send a lot photos to various people and find it annoying not to be able to see which photos I sent to whom unless I open each email addressed to me.
    Any suggestions?

    This is an iPhoto issue.
    In iPhoto menu
    iPhoto>Preferences>General-----> email photos using Mail.

    When I try to email photos from iPhoto I get this message: The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination. It won't let me change it, what do I do?

    Can you send email ok via the Apple Mail application?
    The username and password are set in the Accounts section of the Mail application. Start Mail, select preferences and select Accounts. Then make absolutely sure that the username, password and outgoing mail server are entered correctly.

  • When I email photos from iphoto(9.2.2) the recipients are unable to open the jpegs - why?

    When I email photos from iphoto (9.2.2) the recepients are unable to open the files, and command I tells me they are locked-
    How and where do I unlock them?

    You can't unlock files on their machines.
    iPhoto sends HTML emails and not every email application (or user) knows how to work with these.
    Send Plain text emails via Mail instead. That's pretty foolproof.

  • Entered incorrect password to email photos from iPhoto, How can I enter correct password? Using Version 10.10.3

    I entered an incorrect password when I was about to email photos from iPhoto. Message popped up saying Server does not recognize user name/password. Only option was to enter ok. How can I re enter correct password. Tried shutting computer down hoping it would prompt me to enter password again but the same message came up. I am using OS X Yosemite version 10.10.3

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.
