Right Click in Windows Vista (Bootcamp)

the two finger tapping works GREAT in OSX, but can I do something similar while running vista?
The two finger gesturing seems to work nice for scrolling, what about the right click?
Or Is there atleast a 3rd party program that will allow me to map the right click button to something on the keyboard? I only need it for certain applications that require right click functions.
Also im aware a external mouse is a very good option, but i'm mostly concerned about portability and I dont like the idea of bringing a mouse with me.

I just found the double finger + Mouse Click function works as right click
however id still like to know if anyone knows of a good right click mapping application (for Windows)

  • Problem with Mighty Mouse in Right Click with Windows Vista Business

    Hi APPLE,
    I have a laptop, Sony Vaio, with Windows Vista Installed in it, i have purchased Apple Wireless Bluetooth Mighty Mouse. Sometimes I get no response when i right click...when i disconnect the mouse, then right click becomes active...but after using for long, right click becomes left click and left click acts normally. Could anyone tell me why this is happening, Can anyone tell me any fix/update/patch Apple has provided for Windows Vista. Is there any driver to configure Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse in Standalone Windows Vista.

  • HT3986 How do I right click on Windows installed using Bootcamp?

    How do I right click on Windows installed using Bootcamp?

    It should work the same way it does in OSX, but for it to work correctly, you need to install the Boot Camp drivers in Windows. You can do this by using the Boot Camp Assistant in OSX, then creating the "Windows support software (drivers)" package. Follow the instructions there, then use the resulting thumbdrive to install the drivers and apps into Windows. Then you should be able to two-finger-click the touchpad or right-click your mighty mouse or other two-button-enabled mouse.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4407 for more info on this.
    Caveat: I've done this, and I've found that the two-finger-click in Windows is iffy. That is, it frequently triggers a left-click function instead of right-click. :-/

  • How do I simulate a right-click in Windows when connected with Remote Desktop 8.0 for Mac OS X?

    When connecting to a remote Windows 7 OS from Mac OS X 10.8.5 with Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.24091, I'm not able to simulate a right-click with the Apple magic mouse.  
    On an older version Microsoft Remote Desktop Client version 2.1.1, I can hold down shift+ctl on the Mac and click the magic mouse to simulate a right-click in Windows.  With this new version RDP 8.0, I can't find any way to simulate a right-click,
    other than to select "Swap mouse buttons" under settings, and then every click is a right-click and then I'm no longer able to left-click (which is even worse).  I've tried several key combinations and nothing seems to work.  Am I missing
    something simple here with the new RDP 8.0 application, or is the right-click simulation not (yet) functional?  
    Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

    In order to make use of the right-click inside an open session you have three options:
    Standard PC two button USB mouse
    Apple Magic Mouse: To enable right-click, clickSystem Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.
    Apple Magic Trackpad or MacBook Trackpad: To enable right-click, click System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.

    I want to make a note and put in a folder like we just place a notepad by right clicking in windows,how should I create a note in a folder in mac pro ...?

    There's no "New File" shortcut in Finder on Macs, so you have to launch the application you want (eg TextEdit), create your document, and save it there. There are workarounds using Terminal (the touch command), AppleScript/Automator, and using third-party launch programs like Quicksilver, but natively, it can't be done.

  • Missing functionality of file conversion by right click in windows

    Previously I was able to right click on a file on the desktop of folder which would bring up a window which had "conver to pdf" and other pdf options.  Due to a crash, I had to reinstall Acrobat Pro 8 but the ability to right click on a file and convert to pdf is no longer available in the right click menu.  I have reinstalled Acrobat and updated but to no avail.  I am using XP and Office 2207.  I have no problems converting from within the application such as Word or in Acrobat but would like the convenience of being able to convert by right clicking a file.
    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!

    I checked the preferences and document settings and there wasn't anything that could be configured there.  Thanks any way.

  • Right-click on windows 8.1 with update (problems)

    Hi guys.
    I have a strange problem on Windows 8.1 with update.
    If I right click on a file the Menu opens and closes in same second.
    It does not happen if I click on folders.
    Even if I sign out from Windows it's the same.
    Any hints?

    Ok, the link that you have provided did not help me very much.
    I needed to delete my profile on this machine, but after that I got stucked with error:
    You've been signed in with a temporary profile.
    You can't access your files, and files created in this profile will be deleted when you sign out.
    To fix this, sign out and try signing in later. Please see the event log for more details or contact your system administrator.
    I've used this solution:
    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/38817-you-ve-been-signed-temporary-profile-fix.html, which partly solved my problem (temporary profile error dissappeared), but ran into new problems, for example when I search and click for region settings I recieve
    this error in printscreen:
    Although I have managed that settings thru Control Panel/Region, but recieving upper error a little bit concerns me. Any hints?
    With best regards

  • No right click on windows how do you fix it

    its really what the title says. i have installed windows xp home ed. and the right click doesnt work could anyone help.
    thanks,
    matt

    I believe there is no second button under the trackpad button, so what you'll have to do is set it up to allow for you to control+click to substitute as a right click. OR you can use a usb or bluetooth mouse when you use windows.
    Here is a website that explains what to do, I noticed it also has the file you need available for download.

    P.S. I SURE HOPE LEOPARD WORKS BETTER THAN THESE AWFUL APPLE SERVERS. I TIMEOUT LIKE MAD AND IT TAKES LIKE 6 TRIES TO POST EACH TIME!!!

  • Right click Delay windows 8.1

    When I right click on a file on my hp laptop I get a huge delay.
    After searching the internet I found that it is a bluetooth  problem on hp laptops. Bluetooth has to be on in order to don' t have any delay. I don' t want bluetooth to be always on!!!!
    This is an HP problem and not a windows problem!
    My laptop is HP Pavilion g6 notebook PC. I use windows 8.1
    Please help!!!

    I am also having this issue but my laptop does not have Bluetooth as its so old but I still get major right click lag

  • Windows Vista Bootcamp Driver Problems

    Hello,
         I have installed Windows Vista 32bit through Bootcamp, and the installation went through fine. I inserted my iMac "Mac OS X Install DVD" that came with my imac i bought in august. I tryed to run the program, but it said it was only availible for Windows 7. I could not acsess the internet through Wifi on Windows.
    Could anyone give me instructions on how i can get the Windows Vista Drivers without the disk? the drivers, that bootcamp prompts me to install onto a usb, are also for windows 7 only. (ive already tryed this)
    Thanks!

    The hatter,
    While running Vista, I navigate to Bootcamp setup.exe (my 10.6.6 disc is in the drive), it quits mid-launch and tells me Windows 7 is required. But Bootcamp user's manual says Vista is ok.
    I'm using an 21.5" iMac with 10.6.8. I installed Windows Vista Home Basic 32 bit via bootcamp assistant. Vista is running fine but i can't surf the net. Error msgs say "network adaptor not found." Other forums lead me to believe it is a matter of bootcamp installing the proper drivers so vista can recognize my network hardware. But I can't even run bootcamp in Vista from my snow leopard CD b/c it quits and requires Windows 7.
    My firmware is up to date as I checked it manually. According to my boot rom version, I need firmware update 1.9. After downloading and launching, msg tells me it is not compatible with my system. Please advise.

  • Right clicking in Windows XP with Boot Camp Not Working

    When I right click with two fingers in Win XP with Boot Camp it doesn't work. I have to plug in a mouse which gets annoying. Any ideas? I'm running Boot camp 2.1 with XP SP3. I have a new Aluminum MacBook 2.4 GHz with 4GB RAM.

    For ppl like me who can't get any combo of fingers to work on XP for the right click / context menu, here's the solution - click on whatever you want to right click on then hit Shift-F10. Voila.
    Problem solved!

  • Need to Disable Right Click FF10+ windows

    Need to at least remove the save as feature but ideally disable right click all together.

    You can't hide the right-click context menu, but you can hide items in the right-click context menu via an extension like the Menu Editor or via code in the userChrome.css file in the chrome folder.
