Right & left click at same time

I have the bluetooth mighty mouse and I'm trying to use both the right and left click at the same time while playing a game. Is there any way to do this? Seems like this function was sacrificed in the name of good 'ole apple uniqueness.

MM is not a two-button mouse. There is a capacitive sensor under the front of the mouse that simple determines if there is a single finger over the right side of the button. If there is, it's a right click. Otherwise a left. There can be no "both."
Obviously if you use your left finger you get a left click.
If you click the button by pressing the mouse from the rear, you get a left click.
If you use two fingers you get a left click.
Only if there is a finger over the right side of the front will you get a right-click.
So logically, it's not an A+B but an A or B function.
As the other poster noted, you can program the scroll button for whatever your game requires as a left-right click. Or you can use either of the side buttons.
Or you can get a Logitech mouse with two real buttons for left and right.

  • Spilled soda on laptop--right/left click not working

    My 2 year old spilled soda on my HP G60 laptop last night. I immediately turn off computer and turned it upside down and cleaned it up. I booted up fine later on. Everything seemed fine until I realized my right/left click was not working. I can navigate fine with the touch pad but cant click on anything. Tapping method does not work either.

    Make sure that  the pad is not turned off.
    Are the lights on above the touchpad.???
    Sorry just noticed that you can use the touch pad.
    MY BAD.
    Let us know.

  • Lenovo Thinkpad T420 trackpad and touchpad right/left click stopped working

    So I have had a very... VERY... irritating problem with my Thinkpad.
    For the first 6 or so months I had the laptop it worked fine. Then, the left click on the touchpad was functioning like the right click (bringing up a menu). 
    I immediately disabled the touchpad and then used the trackpad right and left clicks which worked perfectly.
    After another 4 or 5 months, those buttons stopped working altogether. I could still use the touchpad to move the arrow, but I couldn't click on anything.
    I bought an external USB mouse and that worked fine for another 2 months. Then for a few weeks, it would work on and off. I'd have to wiggle it around in the USB ports to get the laptop to recognize it. (it had nothing to do with the ports... there were 3 of them and they all worked fine).
    Then it stopped working completely, AND, my laptop refuses to acknowledge ANY USB I plug in. 
    I have run out of options now. I can't even install anything, download any files from lenovo website. I can't do anything. Does anyone know if it is still salvageable? Has anyone had the same problem?
    The lenovo digitizer for tablets.... would that work for this thinkpad? (sorry... not as tech savvy as the rest of you)
    Thanks a bunch,
    Amanda

    Here was my solution to this. My left click button on both the trackpad and touch pad suddenly stopped working on me. After putting up with this for a few weeks I decided to investigate. I found if I disabled the touch pad the trackpad left click would start to work again. So I investigated by carefully popping off the left click button for touchpad. Everything looked normal, so I investigated a little father buy removing the small round blueish rubber piece in the middle of the button. Once I did this I realized it quite dirty, with a soft cloth and a toothpick I cleaned both the contacts on the PC and the the black spot on the rubber piece, putting everything back together and my left click worked once again. 
    The cause of my problem was just a build up of dirt under the rubber contact which caused the button to short out and disable itself. 
    I didn't have to reinstall any software or drivers. 

  • Right/left click puzzle

    I've just bought a wireless Mighty Mouse and like it very much, with one little exception. I assigned the left button as primary and the right one as secondary (rather standard). However, in trying to use this configuration, almost all of my right/secondary clicks ended up acting as primary clicks. That is, instead of having the option of opening, for example, a new tab in Safari, the click sent me right to the linked page. Left/primary clicking did the same thing, of course.
    When, out of curiosity, I switched to having the right button as primary and the left as secondary, this behavior was almost completely eliminated. I can almost always get normal secondary options when clicking the left/secondary button -- though there have been a few exceptions.
    Does anyone have any advice to share? Thanks!

  • Creating right/left click scroll with a data list and being able to click indiv.item from data list?

    I've created a data list that contains a photo with text. I'd like to be able to right click the horizontal list instead of a scrolling bar. Could you please direct me on this?
    I'd also like to select each individual box from the scrolling data list and click to their website or to a menu... not sure on how to do that either??
    I've attached an ai file of what i'm trying to achieve.
    Thanks for your help!

    Funny, I was in the middle of writing an article on how to do this. The simple answer is you create a standard scrollbar with all four parts: track, thumb, increment button, and decrement button. Attach it to your data list, then make the opacity of the track and thumb = 0.
    To make each item in your data list do something different, use the interactions panel and add a On Click interaction. You should notice there is an option toward the bottom of that panel to change from "When any item is selected" to "When a specific item is selected". Remember, programmers like to start counting from 0, so your first item in your data list i 0.
    Note: In the attached example on the first two items are selectable.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris Griffith

  • Z60M Touchpad Right/Left Click Not Working

    I'm baffled.  I can move the pointer all day long with the touchpad, but I cannot select anything by tapping nor with the left and right buttons.  According the BIOS, everything with the ultranav seems normal and active.  I cracked open the palmrest and checked the connection too... looks sat.  Additionally, the fingerprint reader is working fine.  I checked the ultranav in device manager... device appears to be working properly.  I'm running a virus scan right now to rule out any possibility of a conflict.
    The only positive outcome to this problem is I'm getting better at keyboard navigation
    If anyone has any suggestions, please reply.  Thanks in advance!

    Make sure that  the pad is not turned off.

  • Why is my password right & wrong at the same time?

    I´d like to remove the firmware password from my MacBook Pro (System 10.9.2). I can readily log into my Recovery HD using my password. However, when entering exactly the same password into the Firmware Password Utility to turn it off, the utility claims "The password is incorrect." What do I do wrong?

    That is a new feature described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
    You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off.

    I'm working with a Mac, with 10.10.2 system.  My Audition program has been working fine for years now.  But, there is a problem I can't solve.  All my markers on a given piece of audio allows me to left click to highlight the time signature until my audio reaches the one hour point.  From there on, the left click will not give me the drop down menu in order to copy and then paste into an Excel sheet I then have to submit for the proofing purposes.  After the one hour mark, I can only control/c in order to highlight, then when I slide up to my Excel sheet, I'm able to right click and paste.  Why is the program not, all of a su allowing me to left cllick the mouse and have a drop down menu give me the option to "copy, " as it does for any time signature markers up to 1:00:00.000?

    Which version of Audition? With the latest version of Audition running on a Windows 7 machine I can't get a dropdown menu at all when I left click on the time in Markers List. The only way to do it is with cntrl-c.

  • Lenovo G500 - Can't Use Keys And Touchpad/Buttons At Same Time

    Whilst gaming, primary button use for me will be WASD (Directional) and obviously right&left click.
    The problem I'm getting is that whilst I'm holding one of WASD, then say right click to shoot it doesn't shoot - almost as if the button is locked whilst i'm holding a key. When I hold a button, and then press a key it allows me too. It's just when holding a key I can't press a button.
    I have searched online for ages, put palm check on minimum(I can't turn it off, it's not a option), disabled synaptics, tried to install Elantech(Couldn't) but nothing seems to work.
    It may not be the biggest issue, but it really takes the fun out of playing games as I have to stop walking so I can shoot.

    hi danowens,
    Can you try the following:
    If you have a Synaptics Touchpad:
    1. Uninstall the current touchpad driver and install the driver below from the Synaptics website
    Windows 8/7/XP/Vista 64/32-bit Edition v17.0.19
    118.1 MB zip
    After installing the driver above, try to check if you can now disable Palm Check
     - Touchpad PalmCheck - Turn On or Off in Windows
    If you have an ELAN Touchpad:
    - check this article
    If the above fix doesn't work, try to temporarily uninstall the Touchpad driver (don't re-install it) and check if you can now use the WASD keys and the touchpad at the same time..

  • Left and right click at the same time?

    Is there a way to get the magic mouse to do left and right click at the same time? Useful for well.. gaming.

    Check out the free Magicprefs software. You can then assign different functions to different clicks. swipes, taps, etc. There is an option for a two finger click and one of those options is "hold both right & left". It's free so you have noting to lose.

  • Is there an option to left click and open a bookmark in the same tab and right click to open bookmark in new tab?

    I want to be able to open bookmarks in the same window without having to right click and then select open. I would like it to be like internet explorer where you have the option to open a bookmark in the same tab or new tab. I had downloaded an add on that solved the problem with a simple right click to open in new tab and left click to open in same tab. This makes things soooo much easier. Am I missing an add on or a configuration where I can solve this problem. Thanks for your time.

    Very, very, very confusing!!!!! Exactly which is it that you want to do????? Left-click = same tab or left-click = new tab????
    Your initial subject line:
    '''''Is there an option to <u>left click and open a bookmark in the same tab</u> and <u>right click to open bookmark in new tab</u>?'''''
    Your last post (3rd post):
    '''''Is there a way I can <u>left click and automatically open a bookmark in a new tab</u>...'''''
    '''''''''...rather than having to left click and then select "open in new tab."'''''''''
    Right-click, '''<u>not left-click</u>''', has the "Open in new tab option".
    Easy answer is listed in my initial reply; left-click, same tab; middle-click, new tab!
    What are your Extensions?
    -List them.
    -You obviously set up some extension with some kind of conflict.
    To find out which Extension is causing the problem, <u>'''enable one-at-a-time'''</u>, restart Firefox for the change to take effect (File > Restart Firefox), test. When the problem re-appears, you know the extension causing the problem.

  • Is there a way to "Quit" all running apps in dock at the same time verses right-clicking each one individually?

    Is there a way to "Quit" all running apps in dock at the same time verses right-clicking each one individually?

    IIRC, OPTION-click on the Apple icon on the menu bar and select either Restart or Shutdown. Alternatively,
    Control-Command-Eject
    Quit all applications (after giving you a chance to save changes to open documents), then restart the computer
    Control Option-Command-Eject
