Answer 3

press the button on your keyboard to the left of the right ctrl button to use right click.

Answer 4

Why dont you buy a new mouse? they are not expensive.

Answer 5

well, if you use a mac, you press the control button (ctrl) and then click the picture you want to copy (or click on the picture icon, press command - which is that button that has the apple on it - and c, go to where you want to save the picture, click in it, and press command-v. press command-x to cut)

if you use vista/xp, you press control-c to copy, and control-v to paste. control-x is cut, just in case you needed to know

if you use linux/unix/ms-dos/java, then i don't know.

Answer 6

control  and C at the same time then to paste control and press V at the same time.  

Answer 7

You don't actually need those right click if you want to copy. You can use the shortcut keys.

Copy = CTRL+C

Paste = CTRL+V

good luck!

Answer 8

Ctrl + C > Copy

Ctrl + V > Paste

If you need the right click menu you can click the key that looks like a right click menu with a cursor over on of the options.

Here is a picture of the key: http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploa...

Answer 16

You've gotten some very good answers

Just to clarify a few things (for xp):

Select the picture/object/word/sentence by first clicking on or just to one side of the object/picture/word/sentence, hold down your left mouse button and drag your mouse across the object/picture/word/sentence to highlight it.  Then use the following key commands to do your choice of commands:

Ctrl + C = Copy - Hold down the Ctrl key and press the C key.

Ctrl + V = Paste - Hold down the Ctrl key and press the V key.

Ctrl + X = Cut (cannot cut from the web) - Hold down the Ctrl key and press the X key.

Ctrl + S = Save - Hold down the Ctrl key and press the S key (this option is not always available on some programs)

When you copy a picture and want to paste it, be sure to have a program handy to save the copied picture to!  If you shut down your computer before pasting and saving the copied object, the object will be lost.

Some of the other suggestions listed here I am not sure about, such as pressing the button just to the right of the right control button, or the Shift + F10 method...and I've never used a Mac before so you will have to see on these suggestions on your own.

Good luck!
