Why can't I send or share photos from my iPhone6 photo app? It says "There was a error while preparing to share. Please try again later." It's been 4 days and no luck. Help!
iPhone 6, iOS 8
I really hate this and i have sent various reviews about this situation but they’re not doing anything about it at all and it’s been 3 ios updates since. can we just go back to the days when photos are stored normal in my photo library without the blurring and the exclamation point in the corner. Please, someone say something about this issue, it’s really getting my nerves, i hate it

Three Fix for Unable to Share Pictures
The first method is the easiest one and many who were facing this issue, report that this method worked for them.
1st Solution
After you turn off library and remove it . And again sing in back , immediately you may not see all the photos. But don’t worry it will take little time and after that you will get all the photos as well you will find that your sharing is working. This method worked for 90% people facing the issue.
2nd Solution
The second method is simple but little painful. All you need to do is simply , shut off Find My Phone then remove and reload iphotos. It might solve the problem.
3th Solution
I consider this fix as the best solution if it works for you as it doesn’t involve any risk to your photos or to your phone. But many report that this method is not working. Anyway you can give it a try, if above solution are not working for you.
I too am having this problem and I have finally been able to get all my photos onto my computer either by getting them off my phone or from ICloud. Then I turned off Photos for ICloud because the ICloud service *****. I just keep my photos on my phone and avoid Icloud like the plague. They should rename it iclown.
I found an easier solution. Just go to Settings > Click on your name > iCloud > Photos > turn off iCloud Photo Library and turn it on again. When you turn it off, choose "Remove from iPhone".
I think I've found a solution.
There were 50 photos I wanted to collectively (Select All) and share over whatever(Airdrop/mail/etc). There was this one photo from those 50 photos which was causing the problem. That one photo was taken from the app "B612" and not form the iPhone stock camera app. I then unselected that specific photo and tried sharing again.
Voila!
Shared 49 photos! (50 minus the one that was causing the problem).
In my case, it was one photo taken from 3rd party camera app. It might be a photo from some other app that might be preventing the sharing. Find that out. Its easy.
Let me know if this worked for you.🙂
(1) Turn off wifi ...........(2) Go to Settings............ (3) Select General............ (4) Scroll to bottom and select reset. (5) Your phone will now turn off and then, after a minute, turn back on...........(6) Turn off wifi. (You will have to add the wifi password again.) It should work. Just talked to Apple help on the phone and this worked for me.
I did this. You have to delete everything from your phone in order to do this...I signed back in. All my 4000 precious photos and videos are gone. I have 40 and they’re just from the last couple of days. I’m heartbroken. This is ********. Apple needs to figure out why we had this issue and fix it so this doesn’t happen again.
Yep - that worked!
I had this problem on my iPhone 7. Instead of scrolling through the photos directly in my camera app, I went to the All Photos folder and selected the images that I needed there. Text of three images worked fine.
I think that the camera app blocks access for some reason, perhaps because it is linked to the iCloud.
I cant share my photos, they are becoming hazy, I cant even download them to my computer! Storage is almost full and i have had to recur to send some in text messages in order to delete some pictures. Ive been like this for a while. Help!
I encountered the similar problem of unable to share some photos. I was notified of my lack of storage space on the cloud for a while now as I had the 50GB storage plan.
First thing I tried was to log out and log back into Icloud on my iphone. This didn't work as I realised I lost over 5000 photos!!! I then decided to pay for the 200GB iCloud storage plan and waited to see if some miracle occurred. While waiting I searched on Apple Support for further help and noticed they mentioned once you are signed into ICloud all your photos and videos are saved. You can also access them via a web browser. So i went on my pc and logged into ICloud.com and as stated all my photos and videos were there!!!
I eventually went back to my phone and all my photos and videos came back and I was able to share them.
It may be that increasing the ICloud storage plan helped but all my photos and videos were present on the cloud via ICloud.com on my pc.
One more thing, I was also using google photos to backup my photos and videos. While backing up on the app it notified me of some photos and videos did not back up. This was how I found out I could not share some photos which led me to investigate.
Hope this helps someone.
