    Macbook problem for the brain trust...

    2011 Macbook air. Had to have the hard drive replaced and the tech loaded El Capitan. Here is the rub....and its something stupid but I cant find the solution.

    I cant click point....Like spellcheck works fine but when i click on the mispelled word...It wont give me the correct spelling.

    Or I want to cut and paste....nope cant cut....no option. Its like the double click of a double click is inop.

    Don't you need to long click for context menu on Mac?

    Check your touchpad preferences in system preferences.

      Two-finger click should give you the contextual menu.

            For this ^. Check your trackpad settings in preferences.

            Secondary Click has the option for two-finger click.

            This the way I usually get to the contextual menu.
            Guns, dogs and home alarms. Opponents are all of a sudden advocates once their personal space is violated.

                Would not necessarily bother me to have 2 redheads push my buttons.
