When I try to send a photo in iPhoto I get a yellow exclamation point

when I try to email a picture from Iphoto it gives me an yellow exclamation point
and won't send
anybody know why

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

    When I try to send a photo from iphoto it says it doesn't recognize my user name/password combination and I'm pretty sure I have those listed correctly.  Is there some setting I've entered incorrectly?

  • HT4864 When I try to send a photo from iphoto?

    Hi Guys, My first time on the forum
    I am trying to send a photo from iphoto and i get this message saying it do not regognise my password/ username combination?
    What does that mean?

    You're referring to iPhoto on your Mac, right?
    Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete the email account, add it back and try again. 
    The better solution, IMO, is to set Mail as the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane.

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

    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.

  • HT1199 when I enlarge iPhoto, I get a big exclamation point.  What can I do to resolve this issue?

    When I enlarge a photo in iPhoto, I get a big exclamation point.  What can I do?  Also, a lot of my pictures are gone.

    Gone from where?
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. 

  • When I try to send a photo to facebook an error message comes up.  It tells you to try again but when I do it still comes up error.

    When I try to send a photo to facebook an error message comes up.  It says to try again later which I have done several times.  The same error message comes up.  I have sent photos before and didn't have this problem and don't know why there is one now.

  • When I try to send a photo, why does it go into my outbox?

    When I try to send a photo, why does it go into my outbox?

    assuming you mean send a photo by email.
    a photo can be quite large and contain a lot of data. depending on your connection it can sometimes take a while to send. As long as a red exclamation doesn't appear it will send. the outbox indicates mail going out, hence outbox.

  • I am getting a "not delivered" when I try to send a photo from my Ipad or iPhone via iMessage. I can receive photos in iMessage and I can send and receive photos other than with iMessage. I have tried restoring factory settings etc but no luck.

    I am getting a "not delivered" when I try to send a photo from my Ipad or iPhone via iMessage. I can receive photos in iMessage and I can send and receive photos other than with iMessage. I have tried restoring factory settings etc but no luck. Is anyone else having this problem please?

    I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes.  Now it's dad and husband, every time!  Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails. 
    And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered".  So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point.  I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions.  (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck.  I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me)

  • Why do I get error 150:30 when I try and send a photo to Elements 8?

    Why do I  get error 150:30 when I try and send a photo to Elements 8 from a PC with windows8?

    My wife had this problem for the past few days for a specific phone number. These instructions fixed it -- without having to restore from backup or contact the carrier.
    http://www.timothydeblock.com/blog/2014/5/12/fix-message-sent-using-invalid-numb er-of-digits-msg-2114
    Open Contacts -> select the contact -> select edit -> scroll all the way to the bottom and delete contact (delete multiple entries of the same phone number, my wife had five).
    Open the Messages app -> select Edit -> select the red circle and then select delete. Do this for both the person and the messages you received.
    Open the Settings app -> scroll down and select Messages -> turn off messages, by selecting the switch, and any other options turned on.
    Turn off your phone and then turn it back on.
    Go straight to messages and compose a new message and put in the phone number of the person you're trying to text. Send and that person should receive the text message. Add the person to your contacts and go back into message settings to turn on any other options you want on that you turned off.

  • When I try to send a photo from my iphone it says my email account doesn't allow me to relay.

  • When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box doesn't show up.  Whats going on?

    When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box option doesn't show up.  The only options are facebook, message,   It was there last evening and I used it.  Whats going on?

    There is a limit on the number of photos that you can send in one email from the photos app, but I thought it was five. In any event, you know that you can send mutiple photos from the mail app itself and you can send more than 5.
    When you are typing an email - Tap and hold down in the body of the message area and select "Insert Photo or Video" from the black pop up options bar. Select the photos that you want to include from the photos app window that appears. Then hit return on the keyboard and start the process all over again.
    You can insert photos, type text, enter more photos .... any way that you would like to do it.

  • When i try to send email from my ipad i get the message The recipient "£)()&&£)" was rejected by the server. This has only just started to happen and I don't know why. Please help. I have tried lots of things now and cannot solve it.

    "Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
    In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
    Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
    In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
    That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

  • When I try to print a photo from iphoto, I select the photo, click print and the preview shows there is a lot of the photo cut off.  It also prints this way.  How can I print the whole picture?

    When I try to print a photo from iphoto, I click print and the preview shows a lot of the photo cut off.  It also prints this way.  How can I print the whole photo?

    After selecting File > Print, a pop-up window should appear. Select "Customize" and this should take you back into a panel within iPhoto. Towards the bottom, you should see an option for "Layout". Select this option and choose the correct photo orientation.
    Hope this helps!
