Mouse Tutorial

Holding the Mouse

  1. For right-handers:
    Hold the mouse between your thumb (on the left side) and your ring and little fingers (on the right side). Let your pointer finger rest on the mouse's left button, but do not push down on it yet.

  2. Rest your wrist on the mouse pad or table.

  3. While holding your wrist still, gently glide the arrow over to the words "Click Here" (as seen below the pictures).

  4. Again, be sure your index finger is on the left-click button and your middle finger is resting on the right-click button.
    When you see the arrow turn to a hand (), click the left button of the mouse.
