| Right Click? How do you right click on a Mac? I remember being told once how to do this, but I don't remember now. Not infrequently, I see the instruction to do so on the screen. Can someone help me? Thanks, Ragnes |

| Hold down the Control key on your keyboard and click. Or you could buy a two-button mouse, and the right click would work just as you'd expect. |

| If you have a laptop, (macbook or macbook pro) you can go into the keyboard and mouse settings and activate double finger click = right click. Under trackpad, Make sure that "Tap trackpad using two fingers for secondary click." is activated. If you have a desktop mouse I think you just need the newer mighty mouse variants or just other mouse which allows for right clicks. |

| ALso, if your Mac came with a Mighty Mouse (the one with the little scrollball on it) then you can configure the primary and secondary button clicks.

| Thanks, All. I found that Control Key + click works fine. I hadno idea there were other ways also. Ragnes |

| I found that a 2-button Logitech trackball plugged into a USB port works just fine. |

| Yes. Pretty much any two-button/multi-button USB mouse/trackball should work out of the box with Mac OS X.
