Problems with mailing pictures

Hello

Same thing for me.
And you have to change the settings in iPhoto : mailing account's options are imported but wrong name or password (sort of mix between several accounts).
And you can't choose a defult option such as sending with real size or optimized size...

The picture is mailed but the screen keep freezed more than 5 minutes ans sometinmes the picture is send, sometimes not...?

Is this a Beta ????

I have the same problem - If the email account or Password is incorrect the blue Send Bar moves to the end and than iPhoto hangs...? Only way out is to close the app. If you click the cancel button the system shows a box "that you will lose the email' but than retunes you to the iPhoto-email screen. I checked the Accounts in iPhoto Preference and they match my Mail accounts (which works fine). How do you diagnose email problems? Also ??
1.) is there a way to just send an photo like the old days iPhoto 9 without drag/drop on top of the mail icon?
2.) In iPhoto 11 email if I want to change the Font I get a very small selection (no Bold) if I high-light & right click and select the Show-Fonts off the drop down, some of the fonts I pick have no affect on the text within the iPhoto email (try Arial Regular 14) ?? I have no problem selecting this font within Mail email.
3.) I can select a photo that I emailed and click Info>Sharing and it will tell me when and to who I emailed this photo - How do I clear this out if I don't want to see Info about a photo that I sent Granny Jones last Christmas.?
4.) If I un-check the attach Photos to message (the email contains only the cute "Post-card" with my image inside) How about the other way around - what if I don't want the cute "Post-card" but just the photos attached?? and don't tell me to Drag/Drop on the mail icon.
Sorry for the rant - Mike

Same with me too. Can't email any photos yet, even when I reset my account settings.
And really? There's no way to send a standard email with normal text and photos? Come on Apple!

Apple please give us the old email picture behavior back alongside the trendy new postcard approach - or at least make sure that a recipient using Apple's Mail.app can use the "add to iPhoto" option to not only save the postcard, but also the individual photos in the zip file, if present.

Right now "add to iPhoto" only adds the postcard version, regardless of the presence of the zip file. My parents aren't going to know how to dig out the zip file from the email attachments folder, unarchive it, and then import the resulting pics into their iPhoto. This cries out for an applescript hack for Mail - so it would be best if Apple just did it right in the first place.

Progress is great - I like the rest of the new iPhoto, but please don't abandon basic functionality in the process.

Thanks

I could not agree more, the old "email photo" option from the past that actually used the mail application is desperately needed again. I find the new email postcard themes to be awful looking and you are now limited to 10 photos! I really can't believe that apple took that feature out!

I like the rest of iPhoto but the new "email photo" is terrible!!

Select the pics you want to send.

Drag them to the Mail icon on the Dock

Makes a new email containing the *****. You can set the size for the shots in the lower right of the Message Window.

Ah that works, but still Apple needs to give us at least the option to have more control over the output.

Most likely the people in this tread have created emails that exceed the maximum limit their ISP has set for the size of each email. After all 6 pictures in one email results easily in +6MB something....

You can set the size for the shots in the lower right of the Message Window.

By default there's a checked box in the lower right of the screen to attach full size photos as well as the little ones in the email. I think that's why my blue bar hung up. I unchecked the box, and the pictures went.

But now they don't show up in my "sent" folder in mail. Weird.

I agree, please give us a way to send a standard email with normal text and photos, to multiple addresses, while in Full Screen mode! Bring back Small, Medium and Large picture sizes too.

That worked real good.
Thank You

I too have had trouble e-mailing a set of three pictures. Get a message that "the e-mail server didn't recognize your username and password combination." Yet all my other e-mails go through. What is going on here? Any suggestions?

Thanks for that! I was trying to figure out how to e-mail photos without the cutesy themes. They are fine, but most of the time I just want to shoot some pictures to someone. Plus, with iPhoto not showing a record of what was sent, I'd prefer to use mail. I can't always remember what pictures I sent to whom!

@James Whitin :
you have to go iPhoto's Preferences > Account > and ajust you email's username and password; for me there was a mess between 3 (Gmail) accounts ans it could not work properly.
Now everything works but it's really too long even with small pictures.

@Kiiki
When you send your message using iPhoto with the same email account you use in Mail, sent messages are recorded in the "sent mails folder" in Mail...
