Add an AirDrop shortcut to your iMac dock

Adding an AirDrop shortcut to your dock on the Mac is pretty easy when you know what to do. To do this, follow these steps:

  • In a Finder folder, go to the Go menu> Go to folder.
  • You will see a box with a dialog in which you can enter a route. Enter this without the quotes: “/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Applications/

  • Click on the Go button and a folder like the one you see above will appear, showing the AirDrop app
  • Now you just have to drag this icon and place it where you want in your dock.
