TS3276 iPhoto email problem???

Question:
I am trying to send some photos by email from iPhoto. I get an error message: The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination.
There is no option tom re-enter an email password - it is supposed to be going from my standard email (gmail) address, for which my Mac is signed in un=der a password which gmail accepts. What can i do?

You can re-enter your password under iPhoto > Preferences > Accounts. However, if you have 2-step verification enabled on your Google account, your usual gmail password will not work. You must generate an application-specific password: https://www.google.com/settings/security (App passwords). Use this generated password in your iPhoto account preferences for Gmail, and it should work!

Is the 28.0 Firefox update causing this Mac-iPhoto-Email problem?

Driving me crazy. Since 28.0 update Firefox is reducing photo attachments to GIf size.

Okay I have placed my first photos from my new Canon Rebel SL1 in iPhoto '11 ( 9.43) on my again MacPro 1,1 running 10.7.5. No problem. They show as 526KB and 2.9MB jpegs in iPhoto. I export set to full size everything to desktop. Files now 1.2MB and 6.4 MB. I email them to a friend and they wind up as GIF size files of 22kb and 13kb.
I then email them to myself, both via Mail and AOL --- numerous times, attaching one or both, using Windoze Friendly or not, with new exports from iPhoto.
They all wind up as miserable 22KB (1.2MB file on desktop) or 13KB ( 6.4MB file on desktop) attachments.
I've never noticed this before and can find nothing in all my settings to suggest a probelm.
Just had a brand new Firefox update? I also installed and update lots of Canon Software with the brand new camera. Canon SU seems to work just fine on computer.
Is it coincidence that the first time this happened was after the update to Firefox 28.0
Sorry to dump this here. But my head is spinning trying to digest the Rebel SL1 -- Canon's "entry leve"l DSLR, that I picked to share with my 14 year old grand daughter who is showing a great eye.

Iphoto Email Problem

After switching from mobile me to icloud, I can't email photos from iphoto because it automatically wants to use "@me.com" as my address/id and then tells me "email server didn't recognize your username/password combination." That's because my address/user name is "@mac.com" . Can't find a way to change "@me" to "@mac. Is there?

Thanks very much. Can't believe solution was that simple. I was going fast down the rabbit hole thinking it was an icloud problem and getting way over my head with the discussions posted there. Glad I decided to back track and address it as an iphoto issue.

Iphoto email problems

number of photos sent is truncated

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
are you using iPhoto or Mail as the email client in iPhorto?
what do you mean by truncated? Do you mean not all of the photos selected to email are getting sent?
what fixes have you tried?
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?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

TS3276 receiving email problem

This what works fine: I can send email out fine. I recieve solicitor emails/junk mail (i.e., Shutterfly). I recieve email from private senders(friends), even if it in a group message.
This where the proble is: I cannot receive emails when the sender responds by choosing "reply or reply all" and a day or two passes and that person recieves a response that the message failed or was not delievered. It lists an email address that is not our
I have trouble shooted to see if emails are receieved from our servers wedsite and all is delivered correctly.
The problem onle seems to be if I use my email from the Mac "stamp" icon.
<Email Edited by Host>

If you are sending and receiving some mail with the Mail.app tool ("the stamp icon" tool) and having issues receiving certain mail from certain senders, then your local settings are likely correct.
If you're not running your own mail server here, you'll want to contact whomever is providing your mail services for assistance with this. (Given Mail.app is working, this is likely the mail server that's involved.)
If you are running OS X Server as your mail server, then this would imply either a mail server configuration issue or a DNS configuration issue, or possibly both. If you post your public domain, folks here can verify the DNS configuration, or you can perform the same checks with the dig command:
Launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities and...
dig +short example.com MX
dig +short mail.example.com
dig +short -x returned.ip.address
If DNS is correct, then the dig MX record for your domain (first command) will return the host name of your mail server. The forward translation of your mail server host name (second command) will provide the IP address, and the third command should return the same name as your MX record and the input to the second command.
You'll also need to look at the mail server logs, to see if you can determine why some of the mail is bouncing. (Getting the wrong host name for your mail server — the so-called MX record — from public DNS will definitely cause messages to be misrouted, so that'd be one of the first details to investigate.)

TS3276 iCloud email problems

my iCloud account has stopped receiving email. Senders get a message saying that the email was blocked. I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?

If this doesn't help there is a link for iCloud support at the end.

Iphoto emailing of photos not functioning. Recieve notice that my server is down...which is not the case

My iphoto email service will not complete the sending of photos attached to an email. I get a notice to the effect that action was not completed because
either I'm not connected to the internet or my server is "down." Niether is the case. I have tried to send to myself at both my gmail address (mailing from
the gmail address) and to my other email account, as well as to others at different accounts. Is there any way to restore this function? Thank you.

Books do not use Mail in any way - they created a order file and send it to the Apple servers directly - not using email
and for the book
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
as to theiPhoto mail issue - there was a recent post about Cloud mail changing servers and iPHoto not being able to follow the change so either finding the correct mail server from time to time and entering it or using Mail which does not seem to have that problem is necessary - I use mail so have no recent experience with the iPhoto email client

The iBook does not have a backup (PRAM) battery. It only has the main battery and a small capacitor which maintains the settings long enough to do a battery swap. If the battery is dead, what you are seeing can happen.
If the battery is not a problem (or even if it is), you could try resetting the PMU and see if that helps.

How come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

how come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

Why? Because something is wrong.
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

IPhoto email sudddenly not working

Suddenly my iPhoto email is not working. After I choose a photo from the library and push email and choose a size and compose,it starts to but after a moment the application freezes and the the BBOD appears and then the whole application shuts down. I tried at least 15 times today. Aside from this, I have continual problems with iPhoto 5 crashing. ANY HELP greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Close iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the file to the trash and launch iPhoto. You'll have to set the preferences back to your liking.
If that doesn't help, then you can try rebuilding the database. Hold down Command and Option while launching iPhoto. Select the first 3 options in the dialog, then Rebuild. For more information read this Apple article.
Regards.

IPhoto email photo degradation

Using iPhoto in OS X Yosemite email sharing feature. Beginning in late December, photos in photo cards using iPhoto email templates received by the recipients are blurry. The actual photos chosen from the iPhoto library are clear. Photos emails sent earlier in December and in years priori using the iPhoto prefernce do not have this problem.

Have you changed the Photo Size settings in the "Mail" panel?
Check if it is still set to a high quality, and "Attach Photo to message" is enabled.

Email problems with BB synched via BES. No email notifications and can't send replies.

This isn't a question, but more of a public service announcement for those like myself that manage to screw up their email settings. I recently had problems with my email in that I would not get audible or visual notifications of new email and I couldn't send replies although I could forward and create new emails. The problem is that I am using Desktop Manager on two PCs and only one is configured to access my corporate email account, the one that is redirected to the BB. The default settings of my Desktop Manager installation was to synchronize the device date and time automatically when connected to the PC. Connecting my BB to my home machine would cause the email problems. I had to wipe and reactivate to fix my problems.
So, if you want to use the BB on two PCs and one is not configured for the email account going to the phone... disable the auto synchronization option BEFORE connecting the device to that machine and launching Desktop Manager. It would also be nice if the Desktop Manager installer had an option to install on a PC that is used for backup/recovery and application loading only. The installer had two options IIRC and your choice was that the BB is used with BES or with a personal email account.

Internally, your invites are processed by the server.
If an outside sends a new invite to you, the server doesn't know about it until you add the event to your calendar app.
You'll find settings in Mail and Calendar apps (depending on client OS) to automatically add invites to the Calendar.
So to sum it up.
Internal users, processed in real-time directly by the server
External invites, must be processed by the client app, and depending on OS/Settings, could require manually adding or acknowleding. Also.. in 10.7/10.8 you will see an inbox tray in the Calendar app, your invites may show up there (and you'll need to click to ack)
Hope that helps.

The Quick Answer
Follow the instructions below to set up IMAP1 access in most email clients.
Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option? The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED. Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right? Port 993 can use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe. Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD. Should I have used external client cert TLS?
Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

Is anyone else having email problems such as apps exiting in the middle of an email? It may be a wireless issue. I use First Class for work and yahoo email for personal. I will be in the middle of typing a long email and the app just quits, all data lost.
