Double-click versus single-click to select items

Question: My mouse doesn’t act right. Icons appear to be selected when I move the mouse cursor over them but nothing happens to the open windows when I do the same thing.

Answer: Your mouse is set up to open items with a single click, so the act of moving your cursor over the item causes the item to be selected and a single click will open it. If you don’t like it, follow instructions on pages 10-11 to change back to double-clicking to open.
