I just used this thing last week no problems. today i type in my password (which i know is correct and have verified caps is off) and it says 'sorry, your password cannot be verified. please try again. press shift+alt to change layout'

I enter the CORRECT password three times and then it just locks up solid. i power it off by holding the power key until it shuts down, try rebooting, same thing. i am not entering it wrong and the same password seems to let me into my Google account on my Macbook Pro, so i know it's not an account issue. but i am apparently locked out of my Chromebook for some reason. is anyone else having issues with one?

Tried the 'browse as guest' option and it just freezes too.

EDIT: And...it just started working again...odd.
