I have just got a mighty mouse for my laptop......how do you right click wih it?

At the moment i am holding down ctrl and clicking.....but i'm sure there must be a way of doing it with just the mouse.

Thanks.

Hi, are you using the wireless or the wired? I use the wireless, and when mine is connected you configure the settings by going to Apple Menu> System Preferences> Keyboard and Mouse. Make sure the driver disc the mouse comes with is installed, too.

Yes, the mighty mouse is a two button mouse, but does not show its buttons in the design.

Yes, that is correct It needs setting up via the system preferences panel though, as mrsp has found out.
