Keyboard shortcut in finder to launch >share via>airdrop I'm for a way to share a group of selected files I have selected in the finder window, via airdrop, with a simple keyboard shortcut. since you can use cmd+c to copy, I thought there had to be a way I could use comd+option+a to quickly make the selected files be shared via airdrop, but I am having no luck in finding a way to do so. I need to do this as some of the environments I'm in do not have great signal to power my hotspot, but I can compress photos for media purposes, and get them out instantly by airdropping to my phone, and sending via iMessage. I am decently fluent in automator, and have tried a few workarounds within the simple drag and drop. utilities, while searching google every which way from Sunday for help, and finally thought I would ask the question myself. 

to be more clear when I press the keyboard shortcut, I would like for it to select this menu item.


which should bring up this screen.
You can go to System prefrensces --&gt; Keyboard --&gt; Choose shortcuts from the menu above --&gt; Choose &quot;App shortcuts&quot; from the side menu and click the + button. After that choose Finder and you will get a box with two text boxes.
Fill the first with exactly &quot;AirDrop&quot; (notice the A and D are capital) and fill the other box with the shortcut you wish the assign with this action and thats it.
