I have over 300 starred photo files I'm trying to download.

Hi porchbaby, and welcome aboard the Community!
What you can do is go to your Photos page on www.dropbox.com and then, click on the Starred column there; all of your starred photos should appear.
If you have many images for each year, you can also select the “Year” option from the menu, and click on the small checkboxes above each year’s photos. That should select all of them and you can then, download them in bulk.
I hope that makes sense, but I’m here if you need to ask me something.

Hi Nancy,
thanks for coming back. The screenshot you see is already a filter view (through the upper roght button) on the starred files on my Android phone.
Does that help?
