[QUOTE="Oneironaut, post: 1188834, member: 88633"] You have to enable right clicking in System Preferences, which is found under the Apple menu at the top left of your menu bar, or it might still be in your Dock at the bottom of your screen and to the right. In System Preferences go to Hardware>Mouse and choose "Secondary Button" from the drop down menu that corresponds with the right button. You can also enable the trackpad to "double click" by enabling Two Fingers>Secondary Tap. To add an application, folder or anything else to your Dock, just drag its icon from the Finder to whatever position you want it to be in. Or as mentioned you can open the application, right click on its icon in the Dock and choose "Keep In Dock". If you're new to Mac, I would recommend exploring System Preferences so you can customize things exactly the way you want them to be. For instance, you don't have to have the Dock showing all the time. You can turn hiding on so that it only appears when you move the mouse pointer near the bottom of your screen. Things like that. Another good place to start customizing things is in the Preferences of almost every application menu. With an application open, click on the application name in the menu bar at the top and there should be a Preferences option that will control how the application behaves. And of course, don't forget to actually quit the application when you're done, as opposed to merely closing the window. [/QUOTE]
