In the past I was able to just plug cord from phone to computer and app would automatically open to download my photos.  Now nothing.  I don't knw what happened, but I can't figure out how to make it work.  HELP

Sounds like your phone updated to the Marshmallow operating system, where the default USB mode is charging only.  Once you connect the phone and computer with the USB cable, pull down the phone's notification shade, tap where it says USB Charging (you may need to scroll down to see it if you have a lot of notifications open), and change it to File Transfer.
