    how does one right click when using the iPad?  I am needing this in a citrix app

    You can usually just tap and hold on certain things to access the right-click menu. It works in almost all cases. :)

  • How do I right click without a mouse?

    How do I right click without a mouse?

    If you don't like the two finger tap (I don't - it doesn't seem to work consistently) you can asign one corner as a right-click or simply use the control click with one finger on the bottom (which is what I do, usually - just a habit left over from the old days).

  • Is it possible and if so how can I right click on the on screen touch keyboard

    Is it possible and if so how can I right click on the on screen touch keyboard.

    No it not design for that. I just tried it. Left click only. I recomend that you do not mess with setting with in the software it self you may end up causing the keyboard to malfunction and crashing your computer.I all so just double check our computers help and support On screen keyboard settings. There was no option given for switching the mouse clicker.  Just sticky keys and short cuts are listed. Sorry I hope this answered your question. I would all so not recomend trying to install other software you may find on switching key board setting unless it came from HP company design especially use on these types of computers. You may end up destroying your hard drive and computer all together.

  • How can I right click without the mouse to bring up context menu?

    On Windows systems there is a special key that brings up the context menu of the currently focused item. I would like to be able to do the same on the Mac. I don't want to reach for the mouse every time I need to bring up the context menu as some applications rely heavily on those.
    Is it possible?

    No there is no contextual menu button or hot key combination for OS X. I'm sure there are some third-party applications that enable this, but nothing that I know of. You might search http://www.versiontracker.com for Mac applications/utilities that have to do with contextual menus, and see what pops up.

  • How do I "Right Click" on the Trackpad?

    I know this is a "newbie" question but what is the motion on the trackpad for a "right click". Please bear with me, this is my first Mac laptop. Thanks!

    Hi,
    two options: hold CNTRL while doing a click.
    The preferred one is to use a two-finger tap for right-click. You have to enable that feature via System preferences -> Mouse/Trackpad. This is where you also see all the small movies about multi-touch options for the trackpad.

  • How do I right click with my mouse?

    I dont know if this the the right fourm. But I try to right click while playing my game on my iMac, but it doesnt work! What should I do?

    If you have a Mighty Mouse, you should be able to configure it in the Mouse System Preferences to act like a right click/left click mouse.

  • How can I update iWork using the Mac app store?

    I bought iWork on DVD but would like to get the updates via the Mac app store. How can I do that?

    HI Judy...
    You can only update software from the Mac App Store if the that is where it was purchsed and downloaded from.
    Since you installed from the DVD, your updates should be available from your Apple menu > Software Update.

  • I don't seem to be able to right click on the macbookair mousepad; how do i right click?

    How do I right click with the MacBook Air using the mousepad?

    On yours it's the SHIFT key?
    Out of the box, most Macs use the "fn" key in concert with the trackpad tap to perform right clicks.
    On all three of my Macs, it is the fn key that is used. The shift key does nothing in regard to trackpad clicks, except It does however make all text selected to the right of the cursor.

  • How do I right click on OLD Apple mouse that is white / oval shape?

    How do I right click on the older version of Apple mouse?
    Please do not tell me to buy a new one, I myself have new mac mini with trackpad, but need to help friend in wheelchair who lives in healthcare facility fix an app on his iMac, need to right click to do it.  We cannot get on internet there to download mouse drivers for a different mouse.
    Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

    Look for secondary (right) click settings in Mouse system preference.  If there are none then the mouse does not have right-click.  In that case you can right-click by holding the Control key while clicking.

  • How do you right click on an ipad?

    How do I right click on the iPad screen?

    I did try that, but got only three options: open, open in new window, and copy. I'm trying to download a PDF file that's posted on https://bb.uis.edu/webapps/login/. It'd be nice to do that directly to my iPad without having to go home, download it to my computer, and then transfer it to my iPad.
    It's hard to believe that the feature just isn't there, since this is such a common Web operation. I keep thinking that I just need to find the right trick.

    •Restart in Safe Mode
