When saving a file, if I press ⌘ ⇧ L, nothing happens -whereas pressing ⌘ ⇧ H (which is built-in to the system) would take me to the Home folder. not the Shortcuts app) have no effect whatsoever. Note: Invoking a shortcut from within Save and Open dialog boxes leads to different results, depending on your method. It overrides my "Use all F1, F2… as standard function keys" setting-but only for my volume keys, which is great for a Photoshop user like myself.) It has several other nice features as well-one of which I really like: using the volume keys to control volume without requiring the fn key to be pressed. It's surprisingly trouble-free… and in fact, it's one of the only apps I have set to launch upon system start-up. I've tried a few, and the one that I use now is simply called Shortcuts (available via the App Store). Use an App specifically intended for controlling keyboard shortcuts.

Personally, I find Automator to be maddening at times, but I think the service(s) I've set up for this are pretty solid.

I use ⌘ ⇧ L for "Library" and ⌘ ⇧ W for "Downloads"-but that's about all that's available via this method, to my knowledge. This is the easiest method, but it's limited to locations which are already contained in the Finder's menu system. Add a keyboard shortcut via System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Application Shortcuts.The three with which I'm most familiar are: There seem to be a few different ways you can go about this. I am neurotic about optimizing my keyboard shortcuts, so I've spent quite a bit of time on this very issue. This is doable, but kind of tricky-at least as I've experienced it.
