If you’re like most people, you probably use your Mac to do a lot of things. But sometimes you want to be able to do things the old-fashioned way - by pressing a button and having the computer take you to the next screen. There are a few ways to do this on a Mac, but one is by using System Preferences. In System Preferences, click on the Keyboard tab and then click on the “Tap to Click” button. Now, when you press any key on your keyboard, the computer will take you to the next screen automatically. This is great for quickly getting through a lot of tasks - especially if you’re working on multiple screens at once.
When we set up a new Mac, one of the first changes we make is enabling the tap-to-click feature for the trackpad. It’s one of those small changes that have a big impact on how you use your Mac.

Instead of pressing down firmly on the trackpad, you can simply tap with one finger to register the click. Tapping with two fingers will bring up the context menu (right-click menu).
You can enable this feature for System Preferences. To get started, click the Apple icon in the top-left corner of the screen, and then select the “System Preferences” option.
From the settings screen, choose the “Trackpad” option.
Now, from the “Point & Click” tab, check the box next to the “Tap to Click” option.
You can now simply tap the trackpad to click (The same goes for right-click options with two fingers.).
