Chrome OS Software Guide

Einleitung

Here are a few steps on how to use your Chromebook. At the end of this guide, you will be able to log in to your device, choose your language, and set up your Wi-Fi.

Before you start, you need to know your Wi-Fi name and password and, if you do not already have a Gmail account, you will need to create one.

Schritt 1 Turn the Chromebook on

Locate the power button to turn on your Chromebook. On most Chromebook computers/laptops, the power button is on the left or right side of the device.

Here you will see the Google Apps and Services section. Google Apps and Services are the built-in apps like Gmail, Google Docs, and Google Drive.
You can enable the "Backup to Google Drive" option. This basically saves your work in the "Cloud" so you can access your documents from your computer, as long as you're connected to Google.
Click more and follow the procedures.
