scrolling on a mac question

April 25th, 2012
firstly I forgive everyone if this has been mentioned on here before, but have spent the last 30 mins or so reading through so many old topics, and really can't find the answer....so I need to ask it !

It's driving me nuts that whenever I click on a photo, I go back to the beginning of the recent activity rather than to where I got to....when I was working I had a PC in the office, and worked out how to avoid this, but what is the secret to do this on a mac??

Can anyone help me please, I seem to be spending hours scrolling through photos !?!

Thanks

I just cmd click on the photos which opens them in new tabs. Much faster this way...

You have to go back really quickly (like seconds) in order to be returned to where you were before in the list of recent activity. The easiest thing to do though is command-click on the photo so that it opens up in a new tab.

I don't know - I haven't had my Mac very long, so I'm no expert - but I think that a better solution would be command-click. Just saying.

another tip sharon, just in case you don't know --- if you have a lap top, moving two fingers on the trackpad will scroll the page.

I just right click on my Mac

Like @kjarn just right click to Open Link in New Window. Then close the page when you've finished commenting and you'll be back where you left off.

or if you've allowed it, you can tap on the trackpad with 2 fingers, then open in new window :)
