What to do with a BIN file on a Mac

I've managed to acquire a BIN and CUE file from a recent download and I couldn't successfully mount the file in finder. I've used BIN files in Windows systems without any problems using third party apps such as daemon tools, but Mac seems to have left out this option for some reason.

Some of the forum suggestions included using software called Toast to mount the device, or to use Burn  to burn the BIN image to a CD and then mount it and then rip it to ISO.

Well after searching around I've found a little app that can get this into an ISO format to allow us to easily mount the image. The program is called AnyToISO, and it is a simple little application which allows you to select from a number of different image formats and to output to a ISO image.

If you are facing a similar predicament, then please check out AnyToISO.

Hope this helped!
