select multiple boxes in slicer
our team is experiencing this same issue, most of our group uses Mac's. The workaround is to edit the slicer using the paitbrush menu navigate down to Selection Controls and set to OFF "Single Select", this will revert the slicer back to the original functionality with check marks in the box and the ability to select multiple items on a MAC.
This happens on service. Using Mac Safari 8.0.4 but checked multiple browsers with same result. On Windows explorer - meaning on a PC vs MAC , you can use Ctrl+click to get mutliple selections but on a Mac using Crtl will bring up a shortcut menu making the Ctrl+ slection impossible. Not sure why the previous method of multiple selections was not good enough? Seemed to work perfectly: select/unselect, use the eraser... Sometimes trying to fix things makes it worse...

The only issue with changing the option is as soon as you refresh the data it reverts back to the default of single selection.
Does it work only with slicer or you can use "ctrl+clic" for multiple selection in bar chart for example? Thank you all.
Thanks! Very simple and helped me now.
