If anyone knows how to get seven pictures that I took with my ipad3 into one email and send it please help. I have gotten the pictures into the email and clicked send but it never sends.

Officially, you can only send 5 pictures. Select up to 5 in your camera roll, then touch share, then email. You can then build the email around the pictures.

Alternatively (never tried this, but I'm told it works) you can copy each picture in turn and paste it into the body of your email, and send more than 5.

There are probably ways to do this with apps, but I'm not familiar with the ones that will do it.

Hold in mind that a lot of pictures means a lot of data. It can take quite a while for the iPad to actually send the email, and it won't tell you it is sent until the whole ball of data is out the door.

I BCC myself. That way I get an email notification when the pictures have been sent.

Sent from my iPad using iPF

Try the gmail app if you use gmail. It allows you to do this.

Have you considered loading photos on Dropbox or such and just sending a link? Depends on the recipient and their connection and preferences, of course, but I don't like people sending me a load of photos. A few, OK. If we're talking more, I'd rather get a link to look and copy only what I want, or just view.
