Hi all,
I’m trying to find a way to have my application launch Finder and automatically navigate to the Airdrop window. If there’s a way it can auto-enable discovery permissions for “Everyone,” even better. But I’ll settle for just the window at this point. Anyone know a way?
Thanks!
It seems that as a general security feature Apple has made it not a command for AppleScript.
However, you can get it to work on some systems by sending keyboard shortcuts.
tell application "Finder" to activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "n" using {command down}
keystroke "r" using {command down, shift down}
end tell
This requires that the keyboard shortcut for AirDrop in Finder is Cmd-Shift-R though.
I just think it’s better and safer like that…
Thanks for that. Is there any way to detect if AirDrop is even enabled or if the hardware even supports it?
