How do I maximize google chrome?

Q. Ever since I got Linux, I've been having this problem. When I open google chrome, it won't maximize. On any other browser this doesn't happen. Usually if I close all my windows and reopen, it'll work and if that doesn't work, I restart my computer. I've restarted my computer four times now, and still nothing. It's really frustrating because I can't check the time or switch between windows, as the window blocks the task bar, unless I move it down. Any ideas on why I'm having this problem and what I can do to solve it?

A. Get Windows 7 on kickasstorrents, burn it and install it. Start your wonderful windows machine and install chrome and live a great life with a smooth OS that can do everything you need it to do

Why does youtube keep saying I need to download flashplayer?
Q. At first it was working but then I realized that when I downloaded it I also downloaded google chrome so I removed google chrome from my computer. Then I tried downloading it again but I unchecked the little box that says download google chrome and it still says I need flash player. What the heck how do i fix this??

A. The flash player might have been disabled.

To Enable or disable Adobe Flash Player

These instructions apply to Google Chrome on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome OS.
Type chrome:plugins in the address bar to open the Plug-ins page.
On the Plug-ins page that appears, find the "Flash" listing.
To enable Adobe Flash Player, click the Enable link under its name.
To disable Adobe Flash Player completely, click the Disable link under its name.
That's it. Hope that helps you. If not download another developer build of chrome and it would definitely work for you.

How do i copy HTML (all coding) with MAC computer for a webpage I made on a site?
Q. I use Google chrome and have Mac OSX.

You can also explain for other browsers but please state so.

I am looking to transfer domains and need to know how to copy over all the HTML codes.

A. Hmm... I am not using a Mac OSX right now, neither chrome (but Mozilla), but normally when you right click (for windows or linux) or double-finger click (Mac OSX) on the website, you can view all sort of options. One of them will say something like "View Source code" or something about source or code and then click and it will show you all the code.

However, beware, websites are very advanced these days and (just to make it short and simple) the code that you might be seeing, might not be the actual true one.

How do you get the task bar/start menu to stay when on google chrome?

Q. My taskbar is on auto-hide. Whenever on my desktop, it shows when i move the mouse to the bottom. But when i'm in google chrome, it won't show when i move to the bottom and it's really frustrating because i'm constantly switching between programs. How do I fix it w/o changing my taskbar to lock? I like it at auto-hide.

A. Are you using Microsoft Windows or Linux either a MAC? If you working on Windows this might be an issue with the system. Not with a Google Chrome whatsoever.

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?
Q. operating systems such as google chrome and linux rather than windows?

A. i don't know about linux
but google chrome was designed to be fast
A great OS for something like net books that are only really good for watching videos and social networking
so it woulnd;t be able to do much in the way of gaming or high demand software

that was the last time i herd about google chrome a while ago it might be different now

What are the benefits of using Google Chrome and what are the benefits of using Internet Explorer 9?
Q. My friend told me to switch over to Google Chrome, which i did. I am a Internet Explorer user and I upgraded Internet Explorer to version 9 and it seems like its the same as Google Chrome. What would be the benefits of the two?
Well internet explorer 9 too shows most visited web sites and is insanely fast lol. I guess one point would be security since internet explorer is a widely used browser.

A. Firefox 4 is even faster than IE and Chrome, over 9 million downloads in two days and it's available for Windows XP, which IE 9 isn't.

Chrome and IE isn't nearly as customizable as Firefox, Firefox has tens of thousands of add-ons, persona, themes etc.

Another great thing is it's available for Windows, OS X and Linux, one can auto-sync so all versions of Firefox are the same across different hardware. :)

Also with Firefox you don't have to worry if Microsoft, Apple or Google is spying on you, the code is open for people to see. (and improve on)

And Firefox with add-on's runs extremely fast on single core computers with 2.3 GHz and a mere 512K of RAM under Linux, so the "memory" issues is because of Windows bloat, PC vendor installed junk and anti-malware, not Firefox.

I use Windows in VM all the time, it always needs more memory than anything else I run. Nearly 2GB, that's with the eye candy turned way down. Just about all new Windows PC's today need their RAM bumped up right from the gate, especially after updating.

How secure is Google Chrome compared to say Mozilla Firefox?

Q. Google Chrome claims to be faster but is it secure?

A. A very high profile, annual hacking contest named Pwn2Own, where they offered $10,000 (yes, ten grand) to anybody that could successfully hack into browsers and OS's (Linux, Windows, and OS X). The first day was a contest to hack into Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome... they ALL got hacked within minutes, except for Chrome. Chrome as of today, has never been hacked! Check out the article below, or do a web search on Pwn2Own.

How to get steam to work on my google chrome book?
Q. Will steam work on my google chrome book? And if so how do I get it to work?

A. You might have to dual boot your Chromebook with Ubuntu then download steam for Linux, not 100% sure if it'll work.

Deleted history on google chrome and it still comes up on the url bar?
Q. I deleted my history on google chrome and I turned off the the suggestions on the url bar but the website that I tried to delete is still there, but it has a clock next to the url instead of an earth. How do I delete the url search history?

A. A. Disable the prediction service
--------------------------------------â¦
When you type in the address bar, Google Chrome can use a prediction service to help you complete the web addresses and search terms that you're entering The prediction service is typically turned on by default. http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95656

1. Click the wrench icon on the browser toolbar.
2. Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux).
3. Click the Under the Hood tab.
4. In the "Privacy" section, deselect the "Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar" checkbox.

B. Pause your Web History (When you're signed in to a Google Account)
--------------------------------------â¦
If you're signed in to your Google Account and have Web History enabled, the algorithm may show some predicted queries based on searches that you've done in the past. http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=54057

1. Go to google.com/history.
2. Click Pause to prevent your future web activity from being saved in Web History and from being used to personalize your search results.

C. Clear browsing history
--------------------------------------â¦
I suggest to install History Eraser extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gjieilkfnnjoihjjonajndjldjoagffm

or more powerful Click&Clean app (automatically clear browsing history on Chrome exit, works on Chrome for Windows)

Is there a linux distro that will run most windows programs?
Q. I really like linux except for most of the programs i use won't work on it. Is there a linux version that will run Yahoo messenger 10, Itunes 9, Frostwire and google chrome? I really don't like pidgin because of the way i use messenger. I have had very little luck with wine.

A. In most cases there is a Linux version or an open source alternative

YAHOO MESSENGER

Try Pidgin again using the directions on configuration

Pidgin is Ubuntu's default instant messaging (IM) client, at least through 9.04, Jaunty Jackalope. It works for a wide range of protocols, including MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Jabber, IRC, IRQ and Gadu-Gadu

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?
Q. operating systems such as google chrome or linux rather than windows?

A. 1 If the computer already comes with Windows, there's no point in wiping it to install a free OS (although that is what I would do)

Pros:
It's free :)
There is a large and supportive community for some linux OSes (if you're willing to learn a little bit)
Linux is highly customizable
There is a lot of cool effects available for some GUI's
Most of the software is free open source alternatives to Windows software
Any one can modify the code of software to improve it
Little to no virus problems, I have no antivirus installed
Being made easier all teh time

Cons:
Can be difficult to migrate from windows
A lot of things are difficult to do (although constantly being made easier)
Some Windows software can be difficult to get working in linux
Software is open source so anyone can modify/look at the code (pro or con)
Difficult to choose a good distro
A lot of command line typing

All in all migrating to linux is a good strategy if you want to save a few hundred $ and are really willing to learn. If you want everything to just work the same then save yourself the anger and just pay out. If you really are willing to learn however there are many people who will help you get started with linux.

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to a computer buyer when using one of the?

Q. free operating systems such as google chrome or linux rather than using windows?

A. Windows - people are more accostmed to using windows, it is the business preferred OS.
Linux - Ubuntu - less then user friendly to configure and setup, but stable.
Chrome - new, never used it myself, can't make any suggestions on it....

How do I block websites on my computer?
Q. I use Google Chrome. On a linux machine, though I doubt that's relevant.

This ear I am taking 8 different senior highschool courses, and I have a habit of aimlessly looking for funny things on the internet. I need to block my favorite websites until I'm in good habits. Like putting a padlock on the fridge when you know your weakness.

A. First of all âhostsâ is the name of the file not the folder. Please refer to the screenshot above.

Ok, letâs start from the first step. When you typed
notepad %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in the run command, were you not able to see the file named âhostsâ getting opened in notepad?

If not, then copy the hosts file from other computer to your targeted computer at the location %windir%\system32\drivers\etc

How do you get the task bar/start menu to stay when on google chrome?
Q. My taskbar is on auto-hide. Whenever on my desktop, it shows when i move the mouse to the bottom. But when i'm in google chrome, it won't show when i move to the bottom and it's really frustrating because i'm constantly switching between programs. How do I fix it w/o changing my taskbar to lock? I like it at auto-hide.

A. Are you using Microsoft Windows or Linux either a MAC? If you working on Windows this might be an issue with the system. Not with a Google Chrome whatsoever.

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?
Q. operating systems such as google chrome and linux rather than windows?

A. i don't know about linux
but google chrome was designed to be fast
A great OS for something like net books that are only really good for watching videos and social networking
so it woulnd;t be able to do much in the way of gaming or high demand software

that was the last time i herd about google chrome a while ago it might be different now

What are the benefits of using Google Chrome and what are the benefits of using Internet Explorer 9?
Q. My friend told me to switch over to Google Chrome, which i did. I am a Internet Explorer user and I upgraded Internet Explorer to version 9 and it seems like its the same as Google Chrome. What would be the benefits of the two?
Well internet explorer 9 too shows most visited web sites and is insanely fast lol. I guess one point would be security since internet explorer is a widely used browser.

A. Firefox 4 is even faster than IE and Chrome, over 9 million downloads in two days and it's available for Windows XP, which IE 9 isn't.

Another great thing is it's available for Windows, OS X and Linux, one can auto-sync so all versions of Firefox are the same across different hardware. :)

Also with Firefox you don't have to worry if Microsoft, Apple or Google is spying on you, the code is open for people to see. (and improve on)

And Firefox with add-on's runs extremely fast on single core computers with 2.3 GHz and a mere 512K of RAM under Linux, so the "memory" issues is because of Windows bloat, PC vendor installed junk and anti-malware, not Firefox.

I use Windows in VM all the time, it always needs more memory than anything else I run. Nearly 2GB, that's with the eye candy turned way down. Just about all new Windows PC's today need their RAM bumped up right from the gate, especially after updating.

LUg.

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?
Q. operating systems such as google chrome or linux rather than windows?

A. 1 If the computer already comes with Windows, there's no point in wiping it to install a free OS (although that is what I would do)

Pros:
It's free :)
There is a large and supportive community for some linux OSes (if you're willing to learn a little bit)
Linux is highly customizable
There is a lot of cool effects available for some GUI's
Most of the software is free open source alternatives to Windows software
Any one can modify the code of software to improve it
Little to no virus problems, I have no antivirus installed
Being made easier all teh time

Cons:
Can be difficult to migrate from windows
A lot of things are difficult to do (although constantly being made easier)
Some Windows software can be difficult to get working in linux
Software is open source so anyone can modify/look at the code (pro or con)
Difficult to choose a good distro
A lot of command line typing

All in all migrating to linux is a good strategy if you want to save a few hundred $ and are really willing to learn. If you want everything to just work the same then save yourself the anger and just pay out. If you really are willing to learn however there are many people who will help you get started with linux.

How secure is Google Chrome compared to say Mozilla Firefox?

Q. Google Chrome claims to be faster but is it secure?

A. A very high profile, annual hacking contest named Pwn2Own, where they offered $10,000 (yes, ten grand) to anybody that could successfully hack into browsers and OS's (Linux, Windows, and OS X). The first day was a contest to hack into Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome... they ALL got hacked within minutes, except for Chrome. Chrome as of today, has never been hacked! Check out the article below, or do a web search on Pwn2Own.

How to get steam to work on my google chrome book?
Q. Will steam work on my google chrome book? And if so how do I get it to work?

A. You might have to dual boot your Chromebook with Ubuntu then download steam for Linux, not 100% sure if it'll work.

Deleted history on google chrome and it still comes up on the url bar?
Q. I deleted my history on google chrome and I turned off the the suggestions on the url bar but the website that I tried to delete is still there, but it has a clock next to the url instead of an earth. How do I delete the url search history?

A. A. Disable the prediction service
--------------------------------------â¦
When you type in the address bar, Google Chrome can use a prediction service to help you complete the web addresses and search terms that you're entering The prediction service is typically turned on by default. http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95656

1. Click the wrench icon on the browser toolbar.
2. Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux).
3. Click the Under the Hood tab.
4. In the "Privacy" section, deselect the "Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar" checkbox.

B. Pause your Web History (When you're signed in to a Google Account)
--------------------------------------â¦
If you're signed in to your Google Account and have Web History enabled, the algorithm may show some predicted queries based on searches that you've done in the past. http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=54057

1. Go to google.com/history.
2. Click Pause to prevent your future web activity from being saved in Web History and from being used to personalize your search results.

C. Clear browsing history
--------------------------------------â¦
I suggest to install History Eraser extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gjieilkfnnjoihjjonajndjldjoagffm

or more powerful Click&Clean app (automatically clear browsing history on Chrome exit, works on Chrome for Windows)

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?

Q. operating systems such as google chrome and linux rather than windows?

A. i don't know about linux
but google chrome was designed to be fast
A great OS for something like net books that are only really good for watching videos and social networking
so it woulnd;t be able to do much in the way of gaming or high demand software

that was the last time i herd about google chrome a while ago it might be different now

What are the benefits of using Google Chrome and what are the benefits of using Internet Explorer 9?
Q. My friend told me to switch over to Google Chrome, which i did. I am a Internet Explorer user and I upgraded Internet Explorer to version 9 and it seems like its the same as Google Chrome. What would be the benefits of the two?
Well internet explorer 9 too shows most visited web sites and is insanely fast lol. I guess one point would be security since internet explorer is a widely used browser.

A. Firefox 4 is even faster than IE and Chrome, over 9 million downloads in two days and it's available for Windows XP, which IE 9 isn't.

Chrome and IE isn't nearly as customizable as Firefox, Firefox has tens of thousands of add-ons, persona, themes etc.

Another great thing is it's available for Windows, OS X and Linux, one can auto-sync so all versions of Firefox are the same across different hardware. :)

Also with Firefox you don't have to worry if Microsoft, Apple or Google is spying on you, the code is open for people to see. (and improve on)

And Firefox with add-on's runs extremely fast on single core computers with 2.3 GHz and a mere 512K of RAM under Linux, so the "memory" issues is because of Windows bloat, PC vendor installed junk and anti-malware, not Firefox.

I use Windows in VM all the time, it always needs more memory than anything else I run. Nearly 2GB, that's with the eye candy turned way down. Just about all new Windows PC's today need their RAM bumped up right from the gate, especially after updating.

How do I block websites on my computer?

Q. I use Google Chrome. On a linux machine, though I doubt that's relevant.

This ear I am taking 8 different senior highschool courses, and I have a habit of aimlessly looking for funny things on the internet. I need to block my favorite websites until I'm in good habits. Like putting a padlock on the fridge when you know your weakness.

A. First of all âhostsâ is the name of the file not the folder. Please refer to the screenshot above.

Ok, letâs start from the first step. When you typed
notepad %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in the run command, were you not able to see the file named âhostsâ getting opened in notepad?

If not, then copy the hosts file from other computer to your targeted computer at the location %windir%\system32\drivers\etc

How do you get the task bar/start menu to stay when on google chrome?
Q. My taskbar is on auto-hide. Whenever on my desktop, it shows when i move the mouse to the bottom. But when i'm in google chrome, it won't show when i move to the bottom and it's really frustrating because i'm constantly switching between programs. How do I fix it w/o changing my taskbar to lock? I like it at auto-hide.

A. Are you using Microsoft Windows or Linux either a MAC? If you working on Windows this might be an issue with the system. Not with a Google Chrome whatsoever.

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages to the computer buyer when using one of the free?

Is there a linux distro that will run most windows programs?
Q. I really like linux except for most of the programs i use won't work on it. Is there a linux version that will run Yahoo messenger 10, Itunes 9, Frostwire and google chrome? I really don't like pidgin because of the way i use messenger. I have had very little luck with wine.

A. In most cases there is a Linux version or an open source alternative

YAHOO MESSENGER

Try Pidgin again using the directions on configuration

Pidgin is Ubuntu's default instant messaging (IM) client, at least through 9.04, Jaunty Jackalope. It works for a wide range of protocols, including MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Jabber, IRC, IRQ and Gadu-Gadu

Q. free operating systems such as google chrome or linux rather than using windows?

A. Windows - people are more accostmed to using windows, it is the business preferred OS.
Linux - Ubuntu - less then user friendly to configure and setup, but stable.
Chrome - new, never used it myself, can't make any suggestions on it....
