Right Click Mac Users Can

Mac users can right click in a number of ways, using their keyboard and trackpad in tandem, or by using specific tapping patterns on the trackboard itself.

An external mouse can make right clicking on a Mac even easier.

While today your Macbook Pro or Air will work seamlessly with just about any mouse you connect, for a while, the struggle to right click was real.

When you right click on a Macs desktop, youll see the option to create a new folder, change your view settings, and more.

And when you right click on a link, you can choose to open it then and there, to open it in a new tab or new window, to copy the link, and so on.

Surely the easiest solution, you can simply connect a mouse that has a right click button built in.

On a Mac, the control button is indeed the one that says control.

Its placed differently than the CTRL button is on most keyboards designed for a PC, so note which is which before you get to clicking.

While the control button is held, you can use the left button or the only button, as the case may be on your mouse as a right click, or you can tap on the trackpad.

If your computer isnt recognizing your two finger tap, then check your trackpads settings in your System Preferences.
