There are 2 primary ways to "right-click" on a Mac. You can either enable the feature for a mouse or trackpad or you can use a combination of key presses and mouse clicks.

Right-click by key press

If you need to right-click on a Mac once in a while, you can do so by holding down the Control key (also CTRL on a Windows keyboard) and click the mouse button. A right-click menu option will open where clicked.

Enable right-click on a Magic Trackpad or Magic Mouse

Apple trackpads and mice are designed as single-button devices but you can enable a more traditional right-click option.

• From Finder, click on the Apple Menu and choose System Preferences
• Click on the Trackpad or Mouse icon. (You may have both options if your computer is setup with both. See videos below).
• Click on the "Point & Click" tab
• Check the box next to "Secondary Click"
