alright so im forced to use these damn chrome books at school anyone know a way around the schools blocks there maddening me i cant save, copy, past, get on almost any sites at all its simply driving me nuts any suggestions?

Chromebooks are linked to your google account, which means it's not saved on the computer itself but your Google Drive (Cloud Server). Therefore, all your documents and what not are available on the internet.

As far as I know, the only way to copy and paste is Ctrl + C (Copy) and Ctrl + V (Paste). You can also use cut which is Ctrl + X. Back in my last year of highschool they switched out the PC's for shitty chromebooks since it was more convenient for our school which had a Google based communication. (Otherwords student emails and staff e-mails and what not were hosted by google).

Anyways that's how you Cut, Copy, and Paste. Chromebooks are complete trash and I hope the rest of the world realizes it.

Oh and Alt + E on Chromebook is equivalent to our typical Right Click.

Jeez. Freakin' Chromebooks. Everybody I know, including an owner of one, hates those things. I'm not even sure WHY they're still selling in the first place. They straight up suck.

>>4 The consumer market is full of suckers for products from large successful companies.

I used them today in English class they're absolutely horrible.

thanks guys, and yea i swear these things are the purest form of evil there is

i have chromebooks and we don't have that problem lol.

let me explain further.

the chromebooks at my school are so great. the only thing i dislike is the fact they have no caps lock button.

i dont use shift to capitalize my letters. i use caps lock.

but i love the chrome books - wayy better than the macs. they're light, start up much faster, and have google chrome installed. i dont need to go through the trouble of installing it myself. (safari and firefox are both shit).

i love them. easy to use. all the problems described here are non existent for me. maybe it's just because i've used them for a while, or maybe i'm just biased to everything apple-created. but if i had to choose between a mac air and chromebook... i'd pick chromebook.

>>1 yea dude your lucking I posted a thread earlier where in my school they gave us macbooks. My school district just recently start but we have probadly posting I wonder why its happening in your area.

odds are its not the chromebook but the county that put he restrictions on the chromebook

>>11 this may be the case. there aren't really many blocks i've seen on the chromebooks at our school.

I looked up these laptops and I was just about to save up and get one, but then I changed my mind and said "Screw it, I'm just gonna get the MacBook Pro."

Chromebooks are stupid. who sat down and thought, "I'm going to create a laptop without a left click button"?

>>14 Obviously Google....

>>14
possible troll, youd do well to ignore them

you guys know any ways to bypass a school block thats not a proxy vpn tor or entering a ip adress? that works on the chromebook i cant even get any research done on this thing at all

>>17 no proxy, no luck.

at least from what i know.

you cant just do a portable browser?

>>17 .-. just use a proxy site. there's so many out there that chances are ones not blocked

I raged harder in Transformers 1/2/3.

Anybody know how to open the chatroom in school? This is what I get when I click on the link. (I'm doing my work, just closed it for a sec before taking pictures :P)

You tried a proxy? You can use a site or if they're blocked also you can bring in the hola app on a usb stick.

Eh? Proxy? I don't speak tech, sorry.

Try downloading a VPN (virtual Private Network) it may help...
