This person hasn't a clue what he's talking about!! Clearly he used a laptop or he would've shown how to really do it from a chromebook. Instead, he demonstrated how to type the @ symbol from a windows based computer whereas chromebook does not run windows- he just wanted to post a very common problem to attract a lot of new chromebook owners and lure them - the unsuspecting users to waste their time watching his utterly useless video so he can get paid by RU-vid. PLEASE DO NOT let jerks like this get away with this kind of manipulative behavior!! PLEASE REPORT THIS VIDEO! And IF by chance you subscribed to his channels or video please UNSUBSCRIBE AND ALSO REPORT!! This is so NOT COOL! (The 1st thing all of us tried was of course holding down the shift button and tapping the '2' button. We're not imbeciles! I'm trying to log into the damn chromebook and wiped out the gmail I had because it's full and I started using my other gmail for everything so I wanted to log in with that one and setup stuff using that email. Now I can't log into the chromebook at all! My number 2 button has @ " then it has 2 @ below. It would stand to reason you have to hold something down in order to get the symbols above but as the @ sign is at the bottom as well (beside 2) how do we activate the symbols sharing the key/button on the damn chromebook. You know the main designer of the chromebook is a complete and utter idiot not to have the most common key easily accessible. Out of the 4 I have a brand new Acer chromebook which is supposedly their best chromebook so how is it the @ sign is visible but not functional? Genius google, simply genius!🤬😤😡
pls help.. how to find this vertical pipe/line symbol on chromebook, i see the symbol right below my "backspace" button, the vertical line is on the top and a slash is at the bottom of the same button. im using Lenovo 500e Chromebook 2nd Gen. Version 125.0.6422.169 (Official Build) (64-bit).
Try this if it works: Hold down the "Shift" key. While holding "Shift," press the "\" (backslash) key located above the "Enter" key on keyboard. Releasing both keys will input the vertical pipe symbol ( | ) into your text field.

Nope don't work on this cromebook model this sign " pops up mine has 2 options or three signs it's very very frustrating makes me want too snap this thing in half lol
That does not work for me. ??? I’m really really hating this chrome pos. I can’t do any iPhone stuff At all. I mean Mac books are compatible with androids.
Try one of these: Press the Shift key and the 3 key at the same time. This is the most common method. Click on the time and battery icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen, and select the on-screen keyboard from the menu. Once the keyboard appears, click on the "#" symbol. You can also search for a "#" symbol online and copy it (Ctrl + C) to paste (Ctrl + V) into your document or text field.
@@ADawn I have no idea how to check that not a computer person they made this so frustrating for me ! never buying acer again this was third acer was happy before this
Shift and 2 button do nothing. I'm just trying to log into Disney plus and I can't even type in my email address to do it because I cannot have an @ sign
Press Shift and the relevant key. You can also try switching between languages and using accent marks and characters under the U.S. International keyboard. Follow instructions here: support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1059492?hl=en
I figured it out: for some reason my laptop was set to British English. Bottom right corner showed "GB" for Great Britain. I had to go into settings, advanced settings, and change the language to Canadian English. Now I want to know how British people type @
