Music without wifi...

How do you play your music if you can only listen to it with wifi? And how do you download itunes onto your chromebook?

The issue is with iCloud. If you have iCloud turned on, your phone will only play purchased music when you're connected to iCloud (usually via wifi.) If you turn off iCloud and connect your phone to iTunes (via USB to your computer for instance), iTunes will download all selected music to your phone and you'll be able to play it without wifi. But again, if iCloud is on when you connect to iTunes, iCloud will override iTunes and allow access to your music via iCloud only.
