and Apple just doesn't have a way to disable that. Maybe there's a hack to adjust this, but that of course risks the integrity of my system.Ĭlick to expand.Doing some further research on this, I think disabling that option doesn't fix the issue I have (right-click release selecting a menu item). It's exploitative, and a big loss to consumers for a minor gain to already-rich corporations. I'm so sick of being artificially pushed into buying more overpriced crap I don't need and don't like just to deal with an inconvenience or problem easily fixable through software. Sorry if that sounds political haha, but fixing this shouldn't require me shelling out another $100 to a company that's smart enough to make this disableable on any mouse right-click.Īnyway, sorry to rant. If that's what they're doing, I consider that rigging the market. If they're doing it to try to push you into buying their mouse, I find that completely user-hostile and anti-consumer choice yes I consider options being logical and not manufacturer-arbitrary to force avoidable purchases a consumer rights issue. Right-click on mice is right-click regardless of manufacturer. I don't know why Apple seems to insist on forcing that default on anyone at all. There's zero logical or technical user-based reason that any mouse with a right-click shouldn't have that option to disable its release select. It's possible that your option is only there with Apple's mice, which is ridiculous.
ENABLE RIGHT CLICK ON MAC WIRELESS MOUSE BLUETOOTH
I'm currently using a Logitech Bluetooth mouse (I've tried 6 different Bluetooth mice from various manufacturers, this one has been the best). Most other mice I've used (wired, wireless USB, or Bluetooth) have worked far better with far less (or no) finagling. I'm not using Apple's mouse, I've had too many issues with it.
