But why would you do stuff on Chromebook then move to mac?
Apologies to the OP for hijacking his post, but let me explain the problem and see if anyone has a sensible solution.
I have an iMac for home use, including photo and video editing and I’m pretty happy with the Apple apps for this purpose. I also remote into my work computer from my iMac, which means I’m spending most of my working week in front of it. I begrudge spending my evening sat in front of it when I want to edit/organise a few photos so was looking for something that would let me do basic photo editing/sorting on the sofa. Once done I then want to copy the photos back to the Mac; I don’t want to move my entire photo library to the cloud (yet), so it’s important to keep the main photo library local. If I want to share photos I tend to do so via Flickr.
I also use Google Docs for work and non-work stuff and really rate it. I like the low price of Chromebooks as opposed to a Macbook for example and I’d rather have a proper keyboard as opposed to making do with a tablet.
If money was no object I’d have a Macbook, but I can’t ignore the fact the Chromebooks are a quarter of the price and the compromises might be worth that type of saving.
I can get photos on a Chromebook and into Flickr no probs, but Flickr only allows me to download images one at a time, so that’s not really a sensible solution.
Ideas?
