Computer help/free Google apps and extensions recs

[thelinesoflearning]

So, the new computer (which by the way is still unnamed -- it's probably either going to be Beverly Katz or January O'Leary, or some mash-up of the two) is a Chromebook. What we didn't realize was, this means no .exe or otherwise third-party applications.

Which... I did not really use Google apps or extensions for stuff before, so I'm running blind. Computery people, help? I'll take recs for any useful/interesting/helpful ones, but especially if you have ones that can replace any of the following and/or are better at figuring out computer stuff than me and willing to help me find ones, I would really appreciate it (and I will... I don't know, write you something? Edit something for you? Love on you horribly? Whatever I can do?).

*Photoshop
*Audacity
*Sony Vegas. Or even just Windows Movie Maker? Right now I mostly want something that will let me use the webcam to make videos, I can play with vidstuff later.
*Word, although I can use Drive for now
*Calibre
*ITunes? Just... something that will let me put shit on it from my ipod. Preferably that allows me to take the stuff OFF my ipod first.
*...other things, I dunno. throw me useful ones?

Free is better than cheap, cheap is better than absolutely nothing but probably isn't attainable for a while. Thanks in advance.

I've found plenty of things, just not many that are offline. If you have good internet I think it'd be just fine? I generally don't, so.

I use photoshop for mostly random fannish things and icons, so I don't need the best in the world. Here's the kind of things I do, if it gives you an idea.

I downloaded Zoho, but I think it needs you to be online. I don't even usually use Word -- I wrote in WordPad on my old computer -- but I just like having an alternative to Drive in case?

It's not at all possible. I need to see if I can get my old one fixed via warranty anyway, though, so I may just end up putting my iTunes on there.

I did find an alternative for Audacity -- although again, it requires internet, so we'll see. Not so sure about vidding or webcam things, but. I msotly like Calibre because I can do things like stick my filk on my kindle via it, but I can figure out what I'm doing.

Sorry for the babble, and thanks for trying to help. I'll let you know when I've had it a little longer what I think, if you want.
