Hi!  I am new to this forum and have what may be a crazy question.  I am wanting to know if there is a way to power on my Acer C710-2487 without having to manually push the power button on the Chromebook itself which sits across the room by my HDTV.  Can it be powered on by a keyboard shortcut or some other way using my mouse?  

 

I have a wireless keyboard and mouse that work very well with the Chromebook connected to the HDTV.  I know I can power off using my mouse so that isn't a problem.  Just wondered if there might be a way to power on without having to walk across the room.  Thanks for any help with this. Smiley Happy

    not possible, as far as i know, if you are not just waking from sleep but booting from shutdown.

     

    if you leave it on sleep, you can wake up from mouse or keyboard.
