Ihave a chromebook. I understand that I need to use the download product. When I went to download, the only choices were "Windows" and "Mac". What do I do?

Actually, TurboTax Online supports the Chromebook as long as your computer system meets the recommended minimum hardware requirements. Please see the FAQ below (click see entire answer):

Neither - there is no CD/download product that will run on a Chromebook.    You can use the online (web based) versions with a compatible browser.    The answer above applies to the online version.

To use downloaded version,on a chromebook, like to file to previous years,  you need to use a windows emulator.

There are someavailable on play store.
