How to copy on Apple/Word

[Carole]

Ok I am not the most computer savvy person around so here goes...

I used to be able to do flyers on the old laptop and using works. Everyone said it was really archaic and we now have an Apple mac.
We now have word also but I cant get used to it.

I am trying to do a flyer and have managed to get so far but now I want to add a picture.

I somehow managed to get on to something called Bing, I dont know what bing is but I found a picture on it.
On my old system if I right clicked it, I coud then copy but with this when I right click nothing happens....

I have been sitting here for over an hour, I have written 2 lines


aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


please help.....andI know some of you dont like Apple but the other half wanted it and its not going back!

In simple terms to copy you press 'cmd c' and to paste you press 'cmd v'.

You will need to go to the Apple logo in the menu bar in the top left hand corner of your screen and chose 'System Preferences' and then 'Mouse'. You can then switch on the options you want. The Magic Mouse is an excellent piece of kit, especially if you use gestures.

Ahh thank you big blue wolf.

You will get used the Mac @Carole just give it a little time. It does the same things as Windows, just in a different, better (IMO) way.

If I can be of any help, then just shout.
