Right-click on a Mac
Switching to Mac May 27th, 2007If you don’t have a 2 button mouse connected to your Mac laptop there are only 2 other ways to perform a right click:
1. Hold down the Control key while you click
2. Click and hold down your click for a second or two
BUT today I discovered a much nicer version for when I’m on the road and not hooked up to a real mouse. You can tap the trackpad with two fingers for right-click. To enable it on your Mac go to System Preferences, click “Keyboard & Mouse”, and select “Tap trackpad using two fingers for secondary click”. Voila!

best. mac. tip. ever.
One of my friends refuses to turn this on with her macbook. It’s a constant frustration when I’m at her house and using her computer. I’m such a lazy ‘net surfer.
