HI ME AGAIN!! ON MY 2014 MAC PRO WITH BIG SUR, WHEN I CLICK ON , LET

HI. I DON'T KNOW IF U GOT MY 1ST ?? THAT WAS HOW DO I MAKE A NEW FOLDER ON A 2014 Mac Pro.


2ND QUESTION I HAVE "Big Sur" PROGRAMMING. I NOTICE WHEN I CLICK ON SOMETHIN, SAY COPY, IT ISN'T HIGHLIGHTED. HOW DO I GET TO FINISH.


3RD. IS THERE A MORE SIMPLE WAY TO CLICK ON INFORMATION TO PUT ON IN A NEW FOLDER? I HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM DRAGGING ANYTHING EVEN TO TRASY. SO I COULD USE A NEW WAY OTHER THAN DROPPING EACH INFO I WANT ON


TY

1st: Open a Finder window and navigate to a folder where you want the new folder to be added (e.g., if you want to add a new folder inside of the Documents folder, go to the Documents folder). Then click File menu > New Folder. Then locate the new folder in the Finder window and change its name from "Untitled folder" to whatever you want.


2nd: click on something where? If you click on Copy in the Edit menu, the menu item should be highlighted until you click and then not be highlighted. The text or what ever it is you are copying must be selected (highlighted) before clicking Copy and will still be highlighted after you click.


3rd: I put things in trash by holding the control button down while clicking on the item in Finder and then I click "Move to trash." To move items in Finder without dragging, you can copy the item, paste it in a new location and then delete from the original (but I would recommend some practice on dragging instead).
