2. In the System Settings window, click Mouse in the sidebar.

3. On the Mouse page, click the click the drop-down menu for Secondary click and choose Click left side.

Note: Although the instructions are the same for Apple Mouse Mouse and other mice, the Mouse settings screens look different. Both are shown below.
