i was worried it might be a bug with my macbook at first, then realised some preferences must be contradicting without being able to find out which as i only tried trackpad constellations.Īnyway, long story short: THANK YOU SO MUCH.
i wasn't sure it would do it for me since meanwhile we have lion, but it's the very same thing. and after raiding the net and finally registering on here, i find your suggestion and it's EXACTLY THAT. In the Point & Click section, you need to check Secondary click and select Click on right side from the drop-down menu. today at 4am i snapped and decided to find a solution, no matter what. If your mouse right-click not working on Mac, you can follow these steps to fix it: Click the Apple menu. Splizaat, thank you so much for your hint! i understand this is an older thread, but i've almost gone nuts over this secondary click thing - just have my macbook for 5 months, and love it dearly, but i always used ctrl+click as i couldn't figure out why tapping/clicking with two fingers wouldn't work.
#Right click not working mac software
It is this that is making me wonder whether it is a software problem rather than a hardware problem in that if it was the button underneath that was broken then why would it affect the login in screen? Now I have to use the cursor keys to highlight the user and enter the password.
#Right click not working mac password
If you take the click off and change it all then it still doesnt appear to help even with a few restarts.Īlso the login screen what we normally did was to navigate to the user and click on the name and then enter the password etc. The two finger secondary tap is working ok. Now when you click on the right side of the mouse, it will. Then choose Click on right side from the drop down. Select the option called Secondary click so that it is checked. When the Mouse window opens, you will be able to configure the behavior of your mouse on your Mac. The only thing now is that the right-click function where you click on the bottom left or right of the trackpad no longer is working. Once your System Preferences window opens, click on the Mouse icon. At first I wasnt sure that the trackpad was working at all or that it was clicking but after checking and playing a little with the preferences the trackpad pretty much got back to working ok. I purchased the 13" Macbook last December (Just over a year, typical!)Įverything working fine one day and then the next no secondary click. Hi there I have been looking for anyone else with the same problem as I have been experiencing and this is the closest that I have come.
