[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1501693, member: 110816"] You have a trackpad, and by virtue of that you seem to have bought a Macbook or Macbook Pro..we don't know since you haven't told us exactly what you have.. A single click on the trackpad is all that's needed to make various changes in System Preferences. Depending on the version of OS X you have on there, you could even use gestures (multi finger clicking) to do a lot of things like right click, middle click and so on.. As Vansmith correctly pointed out, using a "Windows mentality" for everything on the Mac is just going to make things worse for you. Windows does things its way, OS X does things its own way way and Linux has its own quirks as well..as someone who uses all three routinely, I've learned to use each in their own way and that works the best. I wouldn't try to force Windows to do the things Linux can do easily or make OS X do what Windows does.. It looks like your experiment might be a failure with your inability to put aside your Windows thinking and try to learn how OS X works since you claim that you can't be bothered with learning OS X.. So, good luck with it.. [/QUOTE]
