Hi!
So I just got a new black 13' macbook, and i feel really excited. I love all that is mac and i thank god that i switched.
I'm just wondering about downloading with the mac, back when i had my pc i simply right click and choose save target as.....but since the make has no right click option i seem to be in a jam.
Help would really be appreciated..:black:

Welcome to the forums, ebraheej!

You can right-click with a Mac. Just do a control-click and the "Save As" option will come up. You can also edit where items are saved in Safari's Preferences menu.

Best of luck!

iMac 5.1 | iMac 7.1 | iMac 12.1 | iMac 19.1 | iPhone 11 Pro | Watch s5
The terminology may be different. Look for either of:

Save target as...
Save link as...
Save image as...

...etc

Also, if you go into System Preferences under the "Keyboard & Mouse" section, then into the "Trackpad" section, there will be a checkbox option to make tapping the trackpad with two fingers register as a right click. This way you don't have to hold CTRL to right click anymore.
