apps from the Chrome Web Store (you’ll need to create a Microsoft

account if you don’t already have one). Then, you can login and

create files or upload files you have already created and edit them.

How to use your Chromebook when there’s no

internet

The Chrome Web Store contains useful offline apps (see Installing

new apps from the Chrome Web Store on page 15). You’re able to

filter your app search by selecting the Runs Offline checkbox. For

those times you don’t have an internet connection, these apps help

you stay productive and entertained. A few of the pre-installed options

are described below.

Gmail Offline

1. Press the Search key on your keyboard.

2. Select All Apps (or type "Gmail Offline").

3. Select the Gmail Offline icon.

4. Use the app like you normally would. It’ll update and send your

emails the next time you log on to the internet.

Note

Office Online programs save files you create exclusively to Micrsoft’s own

OneDrive cloud storage. Though you can download a file you create and then

move it to Google Drive or a removable storage device, you cannot save it

directly to those locations. Also, to work on a file you’ve already created, you

must first upload it to OneDrive by selecting Open from OneDrive from

within whichever Office Online product you are using (you can install the

OneDrive app from the Chrome Web Store as well).

Note

The first time you use Gmail Offline you MUST be connected to the internet

to enable offline viewing.
