I have taken some videos on my Digital Camera, and saved them via Quick Time player to my iPhoto. I wish to email some, but in sending a test email to my self, and attaching the MP4, it will not play, when it opens in Quick Time Player. Any suggestions how this can be accomplished? Thanks

Unless the videos are very short and very small in size, it may not be possible to email them. There is a limit to the file size of attachments. The better thing to do is utilize a file sharing service. DropBox is free for the first 5 GB. I would set up a DropBox account; upload the video to a public folder in your DropBox account; then email a link to the video on DropBox.
