I have had my desire for a few months now and im very pleased with it.  I have recently updated to the android version 2.2 and having looked on you-tube about some of the new features and have found then all very excting new additions. I was partucularly excited about chrome to phone. I have upload the extention chrome to phone on my chrome google search page and the app for my desire.  I am unable to register my desire and link it to my google page. It does keeps saying google apps are not compatiable??? surely the is is the whole point that it uses google apps?? Can anyone tell me how i get chrome to phone register my phone. I have open a google email account via the comp and the one that opens  automatically via the desire.

Curious, it worked 1st time for me, and really is useful! Suggest u verify that u are signed in on Chrome with the SAME ID (somebody@gmail.com) that u use on the phone. Also check if the app has an update available. Possibly u have an earlier version. ??  HTH

i open another gmail account via the computer. I already had gmail account that automatically opened on the desire. neither of these will register. I sign in using the same gmail acount as i try to log in via the phone. i think thant it has something to dso with the " Gmail apps not compatible". Not sure what a google app is? Surely the whole point of using this is that its a google app you use on ur phone. really dont know why it wont register or how to make it register. Cant find any instructions anywhere that are comprihensive and take u step by step through the process and void any pitfalls like google app non combatibility. Any help would be appreiciated

My procedure was to
1. Install the plugin for Chrome to Phone from the blue install button given on the Chrome-to-Phone page at https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/oadboiipflhobonjjffjbfekfjcgkhco using Chrome to browse the page obviously
2. Go to the android market and install the Chrome to Phone app from Google.
3. Start the android app on the phone.
4. On the comp, select some text on a webpage being displayed in Chrome browser
5. Click the phone icon, top right.
6. Immediately u should get a notification on the phone. The text is now in the phone clipboard
7. Paste it (long press) into a field on a suitable app running on the phone.

Suggest if no-go, uninstall Chrome from the comp and reinstall it fresh. Then repeat step 1 above.
HTH

Run *what* app to register? u mean the phone isn't linked to a google account? If so, the Chrome thingy won't work. Run setup on the phone and register ur google gmail account. Then follow my procedure. It should work fine Smiley

I'm lost here... Chrome has nothing to do with the phone.. I don't see why the phone should have any message about it.

you put chrome  and extentiopn on your comp then u have to load the app on ur phone
you have to run the app on your phone to register your phone so chrome can send stuff to ur phone. i run the app on the phone it asks for the google addy ur using on both to access ur phone. the phone will not register it say google app account dont work  I set up my google account on my phone and on the comp to see if either word  but no luck it just say google app account not working  look on the chrome to phone instruction on line it says it there
