I'm wanting to do some rearranging and deleting of Outlook folders. In order to do that I need to right click the folder. I have no idea how to get my Mac to do that. Any assistance with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If you have a one button mouse, or track pad you need to hold down the control key when you click to initiate a right click action.
Otherwise if you have a 2 button mouse or trackpad, clicking the right button should start a right click.
Ah ha, thank you very much 🙂
In the last few years Apple has been shipping new computers with the right-click option (Apple calls it secondary click) turned off by default. Open System Preferences and click on the Mouse preference panel. There you will find the Enable Secondary Click option. This assumes you are using the mouse Apple included with your computer (i.e Magic Mouse or Mighty Mouse on older machines, wired or bluetooth). You may need to turn this option on for right-clicking to work. If you use a third party mouse it may right-click okay or you may need a driver to enable it.
Thank you, I have an older IMac, but I'll check for that feature.
How do I get my Mac to right click?
