      Hey guys, so I recently bought a $230 Samsung Chromebox off of amazon, being as I already had a 1080p monitor I just thought why not, instead of getting a 12inch 720p chromebook laptop. Anyway, it works great, for the price really fast and reliable, and it does its job. I just ran into a problem though and was wandering if you guys could help? So, when I try and download themes, or apps on the Chrome Web Store, it says "Your Chrome version is not supported by the Web Store. Downlaod the latest Google Chrome here." I click on the link and it takes me to the Chrome download but then it tells me "Since you are on a Chromebook, you don't need to download Chrome. You will always have the most updated version automatically. Enjoy!" Obviously that's not the case.. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I updated, but still no luck.. Thanks anyway :)

There should also be an option to update in the about portion of settings (forgot exactly what it's called). Most of the time it will check for updates as soon as you click on that "tab".

That's really weird, I literally just updated it an hour ago. I think I'll call Tech Support. Thanks for all your help man.

No problem.

 

I had the same problem with my school Chromebook when I got it, and I can't remember how to fix this issue for the life of me.
