Feb 14, 2016 ISO is the most popular file type for disc image files. CUE / BIN was widespread around 2000, but now we will hardly find it, anymore.

What is the bin folder?
Although it might sound like it, this is not the Trash. Bin is another hidden folder.
When operating systems, such as macOS — and Mac OS X before that — are constructed using a Linux system directory, certain files and folders are hidden on purpose. Almost every operating system will hide things that the majority of users don't need. It is the same as an architect and builder placing plumbing and wiring behind a wall: it looks better, and the last thing you want is to accidentally damage the operating system that keeps your house functioning smoothly.
It is enough for most people to know that the plumbing and wiring are working smoothly and that they can call a professional should something go wrong. With an Apple operating system, hidden folders and files are routes that power users take to tweak and modify a Mac, to improve how it performs, and solve any problems should anything go wrong.
Accessing the bin folder is another way to take a look at potentially make changes to license and configuration files. Now, if you ever want to make changes to hidden files and folders without digging around in system directories, there is an easier and quicker way. Download an app like CleanMyMac X to uncover space within hard drives. Using its Space Lens feature, This program can show you what is taking up space and help you delete anything you don't need.
However, if you are keen to look under the hood manually, here is how to access the bin folder.
How To Open Cue Files
Ways to access the bin folder?
Method 1: Find the bin folder through the Finder
- Open Finder
- Press Command+Shift+G to open the dialogue box
- Input the following search:
/usr/local/bin
- Now you should have temporary access, so you should be able to drag it into the Finder favorites if you want to access it again.
What to backup on a mac. Another way to find the bin folder is through Terminal.
Method 2: Finding the bin in Terminal
- Launch Terminal; which you can find in /Applications/Utilities
- Enter this command in Terminal:
chflags nohidden ~/usr/local/bin
- Click Return. Make sure the command is executed.
- Quit Terminal. The bin folder should be visible in the Finder.
- If you ever want to restore this to how it was before, enter the following command in Terminal:
chflags hidden ~/usr/local/bin
- Click Return again, and it should be back to how it was.
Only attempt this method if you are comfortable using the Terminal. Remember, using Terminal can make significant changes to your macOS systems and files, so only make these sorts of changes if you’re confident in the inputting instructions. This way, you should have temporary access to the bin folder to make any needed changes.
Pro Tip: If you find yourself running short of storage on your Mac, clear out your downloads folder. Everything you’ve ever downloaded that you’ve not moved somewhere else or copied is sitting in that folder. Going right back to when you got your Mac. Imagine how much room that is taking up! Especially when it contains zip folders, videos, images, and app downloads.
Another way to access hidden directories
There are many apps that allow you to gain access to hidden files, folders, and directories. One such is Daisy Disk, another CleanMyMac X. I prefer CleanMyMac better because of nice visualizations. You can click the 'Space Lens' tool and see the entire folder tree of your Mac. This reveals many hidden folders and things you may have long forgotten.
I downloaded the free version of CleanMyMac X here.
After you get the app, you need to click the 'Space Lens' tab.

My comment should really be a separate hint.. Creating bin/cue files and burning them to CD are a couple of steps used to create VCD's or SVCD's. These are a poor man's DVD that can be created on an older iMac or any other mac that has a CD burner but not a superdrive. The CD's will then play in most home DVD players - a very cool way of sharing your movies with friends and family. Another bonus is the media is far cheaper than DVD's. The quality is also not bad! Here's what you need to create a VCD/SVCD: - Export your iMovie to Quicktime in full quality DV format
- ffmpeg - a shareware application (with free demo) that let's you convert your DV quicktime movie to a bin/cue file suitable for burning a VCD/SVCD
- Missing Media burner - a free ware app. that let's you burn your bin/cue file created in ffmpeg onto a CD. The alternative is to buy Toast 6.0 (I'm too cheap)
- VLC is a media player you can use to test your bin/cue files before burning a disk. It's a great application - I use it in preference to quicktime for viewing movies.
Cue And Flac Files
These tools use open source (GPL) command line applications such as CDRDAO to do the heavy lifting. They are just a GUI to shield the user from long terminal commands with complicated syntax. After an hour of experimenting with ffmpeg and missing media burner I had burnt my 1st SVCD. I could view it on my TV using a $40 DVD player from Walmart. I'm considering writing a simple application (applescripted) that uses these GPL applications and will do the whole lot at once, with a much simpler GUI leading the user through the work process. Any suggestions for a name?---

for those comfortable with X11, I'd like to mention that the OS X port of xcdroast works very well for copying/burning various CD and DVD images. it's also smart enough to put the automounter to sleep while it's running, which is a first in my experience.
I normally prefer native OS X applications over unix ports. I have tried just about every burning app that one can find on VersionTracker and ended up happiest with xcdroast. A bit crude, but very effective.

Just go to Utilities > Mount Disc Image and then point to your .bin file. Nice to have a CLI option too I guess, which is what this hint is really about.
The hint should really read
/Applications/Toast 6 Titanium.app/Contents/MacOS/ToastImageMounter path_to/pc_file.bin
.. unless you've already cd'ed to your applications folder. sorry i try that hint but nothing happend !

So if you don't like Terminal commands..
1. Open toast
2. Choose Utilities -> mount disk image
3. Select bin file
4. It mounts!
ToastImageMounter requires sudo root to mount the disk image but it fails quietly if it isn't run with sufficient privileges. This worked for me: So if you don't like Terminal commands..
