When I send pictures from my Tracphone to my home computer email address, the pictures use to show up immediately.
Now, they don't show up in my home computer emails after I send them using my Tracphone for several hours. Sometimes I try turning off the phone and restarting it a few times. Sometimes that helps, or sometimes 8 hours or so later my pictures arrive in my in box.
Any ideas why this happens?

I'm unable to offer any reason as to why it's happening, but when I take my battery out and then reinsert it everything seems to work better. Good luck.

first, check your sync settings. could be right there.
but, does your phone use GSM or CDMA technology?
towers owned by AT&T (using GSM technology) have been known dump or delay TracFone traffic during times of high use, in order to favor AT&T customers.
i found out I had hundreds of delayed texts, arriving late as partial texts or scrambled non sense. some were delayed more than 6 months!
I suspect this is why TracFone has moved away from having as many GSM phones as they used to.

Thank you for your responses. I tried the easy fix @waterlily and tried your suggestion of removing the battery and it worked!!!!!!!!1
