A:AnswerHi Jack, apologies for what you're experiencing. I've found that the functionality of HDMI adapters can be hit and miss. Typically, the package or listing will indicate "compatible with Chromebook". If you've opened "settings" and then "displays" and the Chromebook is unable to detect the external monitor, please reach out to Support.HP.com for assistance, or call 800-474-6836.
A:AnswerBecause this is a Chromebook, it can only download and run apps that are in the Google Play Store. While Microsoft Office products are available, if you mean Microsoft Windows, it does not. It uses the Google Chrome operating system.
A:AnswerHello. Thanks for your question. Yes, the auto-update expiration date on this HP Chromebook is June 2028. The Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174A-3 802.11a/b/g/n/ac (2x2) Wi-Fi card is on this HP Chromebook.
A:AnswerIt means that someone bought the computer started to use it, and then returned it. Most commonly that's because of buyer's remorse or they realize that the computer doesn't meet their needs. Best Buy examines the computer to make sure there isn't a technical problem, and resets it to it's factory conditions. Because it's been opened it can't be sold as a new unit, so it's sold as an open box.
A:AnswerIt looks like it won't work in some situations.Chromebooks only format to FAT32, which has a maximum single file size of 4 gigabytes. Files that are exFAT32 can be much larger, but if the file you're looking at is less than 4 gigabytes, it should work just fine.
