Right clicking on the mouse

Hi, I just got my new iMac 24 inch computer. I've got the upgraded mouse, but how to I copy and paste things? I'm used to right click/left click. Is there a mouse on the market that is compatible? the one I bought on Amazon would not fit in the back. Thank you.

iMac 24″, macOS 14.6

You can click on the right side of the Magic Mouse. see > iMac Pro Magic Mouse 2 - Apple Support

Or you can hold the Control and click to produce a Right click with the Magic Mouse.


Optionally can plug the USB mouse that you bought from Amazon using a USB-C to USB-A adapter.
