Best Answer: Yes, it will work for that. You can hold the mouse in your hand, and with (left-) clicks click from slide to slide. However, if you accidentally hit the right part of the mouse, you'll right-click and the context menu pops up. So it's not ideal. I would recommend the Apple remote for presentations. The new Aluminum one works great for that, since you have full and simple control, once you memorized the buttons. Far less accidental false buttons presses.

The right-click function in Mac OS X has several key uses, especially if you want to interact with files and menus. Pressing the right-click button on a mouse generally opens up a menu where you can quickly select a command. The action depends on its name and also on the item that you right-clicked. For instance, right-clicking a misspelled word lets you correct it, while right-clicking a file on your Finder application gives you options to delete, rename the file or other action. If your Mac does not have a connected mouse, you can also use other methods to mimic the right-click function.
Click the Apple logo in the top left corner of the screen. Select System Preferences from the drop-down menu. Select Trackpad. Check the box next to Secondary Click to enable right-clicking. Select 'Click in the bottom right corner' from the drop-down menu just beneath Secondary Click. Download Keynote for Mac from the Mac App Store Download Keynote for iOS from the iOS App Store Preview. Or import and edit PowerPoint documents right in Keynote.
Tip. Use the 'Tab' and 'Arrow' keys to navigate through the System Preferences and Universal Access if you have trouble in turning on the Mouse Keys function. If you are using a Macbook or Apple Magic Trackpad, click the 'Apple' menu on the upper-left and select 'System Preferences.'
Go to 'Keyboard & Mouse' and click on the 'Trackpad' tab. Tick the check box labeled 'Place two fingers on trackpad and click button for secondary click.' Then execute a right-click command by tapping anywhere on the trackpad with two fingers simultaneously.
