    Trying to play fallout 2, ctrl-click does nothing, do I need a new mouse? Thanks

    I assume you mean the Magic Mouse, yes? Does right-click work on the Desktop and other apps?

    If it is a Macbook then two fingers on the trackpad and clicking acts as a right click.

    Sorry its a magic mouse yes. Game was released in 97 so I presume mac mice had 2 buttons then.

    Go into System Preferences in the Apple Menu, click Mouse, and be sure to see if right clicking (secondary clicking) is enabled at all! I don't know why Apple do this, they release 2 button mice but limit them to 1 button!

    Also, another thing about the Magic Mouse, you can't hold both the buttons at the same time, are you trying to do that maybe?

    No problem :) You should check out MagicPrefs, it adds so much to the mouse, I use it too, you can set touch gestures for literally everything:
