emailing photos

suzy_g

I just sent a folder of photos to someone, I check on sent items to see if it worked, when I click on it, it says emailing (this file), i sent them 15mins ago. does this mean its still in the process? as I am so techno-phobic I scared I done something wrong and it will all go really wrong:eek:

If you right click and choose "Send To...email Recipient" the Subject line of the email is automatically filled in for you with the header "Emailing [filename]"

It depends how long it takes to upload the photos from your computer, how many photos and what size are they in the folder also there may be a limit on size that you are allowed to upload at any one time.

I was wondering as it says, this message has been sent with link or a shortcut to, then it gives the name, so so i cant click to see if the photos have been sent? i try sending them another way but that only let me send one at a time, so i clicked on the file and clicked emailed recipient and it took me to my default email, sorry i will ring her later to see if she got them

Open your sent mail, and have a look at the attachment. If it ends with .lnk then only a link has been sent. IIRC, this happens if you try to send whole folders.
One way would be to select all of the files you want to send, then zip them. Send the zip file.

there isnt a attachment just the message which says this message has been sent etc

how do i do a zip file thanks

Then you have sent a blank email. No attachment = no pics. Try again as in post 5.

Once you have selected the files you want to send, right click and you should be given the option to zip, or zip and email.

If you do "zip" them make sure the recipient can unzip them.

Otherwise just send a few at a time (if there are a lot of big files)

well it worked now i know how to do a zip-file.. but I must of saved the photos wrong, because, you have to click on each photo to open each one, you cannot use arrows to go from one to one
