How do I attach an iphoto as a jpeg file attachment to an email that can be opened and managed by a pc windows user? All my email photos show as actual photos imbedded in the email and can't be taken out of the email by the pc user.
I assume you are using the built in "Email" feature of iPhoto to send your images. While the Mail window shows the images as if they were part of the body of the message, the pictures are still attached just like any other email. I use this feature to send pictures to those of my relatives that use Windows all the time.
If the person you are sending to says they do not see the pictures you can do the following (Note: This is not necessary for using Windows machines but if the person says they can't see it's all I can suggest.):
1.) Make a new folder on your desktop (File > New Folder)
2.) Highlight the pictures you are going to send to the person
3.) Go to File > Export > File Export and export the pictures into that new folder
4.) Click on the folder on the desktop and go to File > Compress
_This will create a .ZIP file with the same name as the folder.
_You can drag this .ZIP file into your email message and send it.
NOTE: If the images are too large the file will not send. Most email providers will not let you send send attachments over 10 MB. To see how big the ZIP file is, click on it once and then go to File > Get Info and note the size. If it is over 10 MB you might want to send several smaller emails with fewer pictures or when you use the File > Export feature of iPhoto change the "Size" to something smaller.
Finally, If you are a MobileMe member you could make a Web Gallery of your pictures and send that to the Windows user.
Best to ask on the iPhone forum, and be sure to tell them what version of the OS you have. But assuming it's a recent one, select the pic in the Photos app and then tap the share button.
