What is the mac equivalent to a right clic on a windows machine

What is the Mac equivalent to a right click?  I installed Office for Mac 2011 on my macbook pro and I need to right click over a file from an ealier version of Office to make Office 2011 the default version of office.  This is all in preparation to install Lion (Lion won't support Office 2004 and I can't afford to lose access to these files).

CTRL+click
CTRL=control (in between the fn and alt/option keys).
You can also go into System Preferences --> Trackpad and ensure "Secondary Click" is checked so that a two finger tap will act as a "right-click."

  • OT: What's the Mac equivalent of Microsoft Paint?

    What's the Mac equivalent of Microsoft Paint?
    It used to be MacPaint, but isn't that long gone?
    Is it iLife? If so, in the specs I don't see any mention of
    basic paint functions although maybe it has them.
    Obviously I don't have a current Mac or I'd know the answer
    to this.
    Thanks.

    HI
    what is the Mac equivalent of the command "ctrl+shift + I"  for a PC to get to the cookies and delete them

    It varies depending on which browser you're using. In Safari, choose Preferences from the Safari menu, click on the Privacy tab, and then on Details.

  • What is the mac equivalent of the windows run command

    I am a mac virgin, always used windows based pc's. I am finding it a bit of a struggle. What is the equivalent run command on a mac?

    To launch a program, double-click its icon or CONTROL-click it and select open. In the Terminal.app (CLI program), it's open <path to application>.

  • What's the Mac equivalent of Windows Print Setup?

    I can't find where in OS 10.8.5 applications like Numbers or Pages to set margins, page orientation (portrait/landscape), etc. as in Windows Page Setup facility. I also can't find where to set printing in color or B&W.

    The choice of color vs B/W and single sided vs duplex printing is all found in the print dialog -- exactly where in the print dialog is determined by the author of the printer driver software, but it will be in one of the drop down menus in that dialog. In Apple applications such as Pages and Numbers the page setup is found in the File menu or you can access it directly with Shift+Command+P. Margins can be set by going to the View menu and selecting the option to Show Rulers or you can click on the appropriate section of the Inspector pane on the right hand side of the Window. The Pages or Numbers Help section has a lot of tutorial material that will walk you through most of what you need to know.

  • What is the Mac equivalent for ALT codes?

    I want to type basic fractions. In Windows one uses ALT codes (e.g. ALT+0169 for "1/2"). What do you do in Mac?

    This page shows you the solution - the layout of the Character Viewer has changed but the principle is the same.

    There is almost never a reason to defrag a Mac. Indeed, doing so can be a negative. Defrag is defrag regardless of the OS.
    What you say above does not make much sense. Formatting and defraging are vastly different things. What is the exact wording of the message you refer to as "it tells me I have to reformat my drive to a particular format?"

  • What is the Oracle equivalent of the Microsoft Access FIRST function?

    Using: Oracle 10gR2 RAC on SUSE Linux 9 (10.2.0.3)
    In the process of converting a Microsoft Access database to Oracle, an Access query is using the FIRST function.

    In the attempt to convert, the Oracle FIRST_VALUE function was used. However, the same results was not achieved.

    A slight correction to odie's post. I think you want min not max to replicate the Access first function, but see below to be sure. So:
    min(upper(trim(tre.dname))) keep (dense_rank first order by tre.gcusno) as dname_std
    user10860953 wrote:How does one ignore null values?The min and max functions will ignore nulls automatically, so if there is a null value in tre.dname, it will not be be returned, unless all of the values are null. For example:

      2     SELECT 65 id, 'ABCD' col FROM dual UNION ALL
      3     SELECT 37, 'DEFG' FROM dual UNION ALL
      4     SELECT 65, 'DEFG' FROM dual UNION ALL

  • Simple question: What's the Mac shortcut for size???

    What's the Mac shortcut for increasing the size of the online image?
    Thank you

    Safari offers only two choices, zoom page and zoom text only.
    To zoom images, you have to look for a safari extension.
    I have not tested any, so I have no information about any of it.
    Best.

    Did you actually mean version 10, as in Illustrator 10 from 2001?
    If so:
    • Your G4 with OS X 10.4 (2005-2007) would probably run it, (using Rosetta if needed / PPC based).
    • OS X 10.9 will definitely not allow install or run it.

    Hello again redhue,
    Thank you for the quick reply!
    In addition to the three lights you see above your number pad (on the far left-hand side), are there any other lights illuminated on your keyboard? Is it possible to take a picture of where these lights are, and post them? Otherwise, the lights should indicate specific locks:
    The Num Lock
    The Cap Lock
    The Scroll Lock
    In essence, these lights indicate when you have locked any one of these three options.
    I hope this helps!
