	Best Answer: Your school's loaner Macbook has been "Set Up", by the school's IT staff, to access the iTunes Store, and the Mac App Store, ONLY through the school's main Apple Server-based computer. So, you can't install anything on the loaner that hasn't been pre-approved by IT, and can ONLY be downloaded while you're in school. And, there's nothing any student can do to bypass the school's Server, if the IT Guys know their stuff.
