How to save a photo into IOS Photos for Mac? Q: How do I automatically acquire photos downloaded from an email, into my IOS photos on my MBP? BACKGROUND: Long time IOS user, but this constantly frustrates me. I use gmail, and if someone shares a photo with me via email, I want to download it into my IOS Photos. I click on the photo, title it, click Save -- and it's in Downloads but NOT in my Photos. What am I doing wrong?? I want to have these photos available to share elsewhere, just as usual. Yes, I already restarted my laptop. Yes, it's all up to date. Yes, I already completely closed and reopened the Photos app.

Put photo in an email So I had an email all written and ready to send when I decided to add a photo from my Photos library. I thought I could just drag and drop. Nope. I had to export it to my desktop then add as a photo into my email then delete the photo from my desktop. Any other way to do that? No need to mention sharing the photo since that only works to put the photo into a new email. Nor do I need help with iPhone or iPad. All of this is on my Macbook.

Hi, welcome to the Apple Users Community.

In the preview window of the email there is a line separating the header from the email body. Move your mouse pointer over the line around the middle of the preview and a pop-up will show with the attachment icon and the number of attachments contained in the email.

Click the drop arrow and you will be offered options to save.

Best of luck
