Is there a way to download all files that were previously online only?

Question

New MacBook, and dropbox was accidentally set up as online only files and folder.  I've changed this, but it only affects FUTURE files.

Now I need to go traveling  (often no internet) and still access things and a HUGE number of files are sat in the cloud and not on my machine.  Is there an easy way to download them all?  There's no way I can open them all to get them on the machine to take with me.

Select a file or folder, right-click and select Make available offline. You can also select multiple files or folders at once and do this.
