When I paste a photo from iPhoto into an email, it pastes a URL that is invalid instead of the picture.  Is there a setting I can change to fix this?

It started doing this after my husband had to partition the hard drive to support Windows files. I had no trouble previously.  I'm not talking about the Share feature, just simply selecting a photo in iPhoto, clicking "command" then "c" to copy and clicking "command" then "v" in the body of an email to paste the photo.  Instead of the photo appearing I now get a URL to the local link on my hard drive, which of course the recipient of the email can't access.  Help...

Use the supported methods of getting the Photo into the mail message, via the Share menu or the Media Browser.

  • How do I copy several photos from IPhoto to an email

    How do I copy several photos from IPhoto to an email?

    Hello sfbates41,
    Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.
    To copy several photos from iPhoto into an email, first you need to select them, then you can drag them over into the email message or start an email from there.
    iPhoto 9.5: selecting photos
    To select a photo, click it. A selected photo has a yellow border.
    Here are other ways to select photos:
    To select more than one photo, hold down the Command key while you click each photo.
    Drag to select multiple photos.
    To select a continuous range of photos, click the first photo, and then press the Shift key while you click the last photo.

    You can send photos from your photo library or an album, but not from a slideshow or a project (such as a book, card, or calendar).
    2.  In the toolbar, click the Share button, and then Mail.
    3.  If this is the first time you’re using iPhoto to email photos, select the email account you want to use, click Setup, complete the requested information, and then click Save.
    If you don’t see your email provider, click Cancel and follow the steps in the task below to set up your email account.
    Your photos appear in the email window, presented in a theme.
    Take care,

  • Problems "pulling" photos from iPhoto into iMovie....

    I am trying to create a movie with a combination of movie clips from my DV camera and photos from iPhoto (on my G5, 2ghz iMac). Movie clips are no problem. The problem occurs when I try and "pull" in more than 20 pics or so from iPhoto. I am trying to "pull" them in via "Media" and then "Photos". If I try and pull in a bunch, say more than 20, iMovie quits and I have to start all over again. Is this a bug and is there any workaround?

    I actually think this is one area where iMovie6 does a lot better than iM5. My machine used to choke all the time when I would try to drag a whole bunch of photos into timeline. The reason is that whenever you bring in photos like that, they have to be rendered, so trying to render a whole lot of stuff is going to be time dependent based on your processor, memory etc. (and the settings you have for timelength, ken burns effect etc.) iM5 tried to render everything simultaneously and would always lock up on me. iM6 appears to render one at a time so it eventually finishes, but then I stopped trying to import large bunches of photos after my iM5 experience so I can't say where the limit is.
    I've gotten so fond of playing with the ken burns effect and setting the start and stop points that I pretty much do all my images one at a time now because it can render the last one while I'm picking settings for my next one.

  • Importing photos from iphoto into idvd

    I am trying to import photos from iphoto into idvd for a slideshow. When the photos move into idvd they are not in the same order as they were in the iphoto library. What could be the possible cause of this?? I did go into iphoto and place comments in after the fact. Would that have anything to do with it?

    Try this possible solution from acgray on Mac OS X Hints:
    I have worked with many users who like to take iPhoto albums and make DVDs of them with iDVD. However, one very annoying bug (feature?) has to do with the fact that when you are in iDVD, it randomizes the sort order of the Photos in your album. Not only that, but it is painstaking and time consuming changing the order in iDVD.
    My solution..
    Select All in the album in iPhoto you want to use in iDVD as a slideshow. Then use File -> Export -> File Export. The secret is to select "Use Album Name" as this will rename the images in sequential order, based on the order that you put them in. Save them in their own new folder somehwere easy to find (ie on the Desktop).
    Then, in iDVD, either drag, or I believe you can import the entire folder into the Slideshow project window, and voila! your slides are in order. I believe you can throw away the folder with the exported images as they should now be saved into the Project, but don't quote me on that.

  • When I insert a photo from iPhoto in an iMovie video, it´s another photo that is displayed in the movie

    When I insert a photo from iPhoto in an iMovie video, it´s another photo that is displayed in the movie.
    I´ve tried to end iMovie, shut down the MacBook Pro, but the same problem happens again.

    Hi
    BUT
    This can take times ! - I mean several Hours ! !
    Last time I did this it took > 20 Hours (INTEL i7 4x4 processors - 2.2GHz)
    AND - remember to connect Your MacBook (or laptop) to Mains-adaptor - as battery might run out !
    Still - there is no alternative route to this (repair of iPhoto Library) suggested by Karsten !

  • TS1307 "The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination". This message pops up when trying to mail photos from iPhoto. How do I fix it?

    "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination." This message pops up when trying to send photos from iPhoto via Mail. I have tried reseting passowrds in both gmail and me.com

    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.

  • Does anyone know how to take photos from IPHOTO into Lightroom?

    does anyone know how to take photos from IPHOTO into Lightroom?

    Because Apple has dropped "Aperture" and is switching users away from "iPhoto" to a new photo application called "Photo" so that they are more fully integrated with the Yosemite 10 and the iOS 8.3 going forward there are some instructions how to import photos into Lightroom without losing to much metadata or other information. Go under Lightroom help and follow he instructions.

    I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

    Enable PhotoStream in iCloud first, then add the photos to PhotoStream in iCloud. Of course, you will need PhotoStream also enabled on your other devices also in order to view them.

    When I imported my photos from iPhoto to Aperture, I appear to have lost all my keywords.  Can I retrieve them and, if so, how?

    How did you import them?
    Keywords are preserved if you use either the Import iPhoto Library or Show iPhoto Browser methods.
