Since you have the latest Microstudio, try this:
Open Microstudio, select one of the songs you wish to change and right click on it.
Select Rename and change the file extension (3 characters after the period) from BIN to CDG.
Then click on Keyrite to open it and see if you can see the one file you just changed. If so then go back to Microstudio and repeat for each of the song files you need to change.

It doesn't say Bin..it says CDG..can't EVEN find the word Bin...I know what it is, I just don't know where my songs go so I can change the key. I know how to get to the default folder " songs"..but there is never anything in it after I download my songs..CRAZY!!!

Why don't you try doing a search for one of your song titles and see if that will lead you to the folder where they are being stored.

I can't figure out how to change the .bin files to .cdg files I have been using microstudio and keyrite for over 5 years but the new version are getting to me, I can't use the keyrite either, I have sent personal mesg to several members still nothing and you can forget getting help from MTU

If set to default by MTU should be "C:\Program Files\Micro Technology Unlimited\Microstudio\songs" If that isn't the folder you will have to search for the folder you set as the default folder by checking Tools/Default Folder in Microstudio.
Use windows explorer to find the folder the files are in. Find the file you want to work with, right click on it and click on "Rename". Highlight the last 3 characters (BIN) and type in"CDG". Simple as that.

I guess everyone ignores the fact that that MTU staff sorely needed a break and took THANKSGIVING off.

If you need critical help, use our Support Center and submit a Support Ticket. However, when on Holiday, we don't review these requests until we return to work. These Forums are for "peer-to-peer" help, but I do monitor them also.

Simply put, Keyrite should allow opening .BIN extension filenames. It was an oversight on our part.

We will create new release this week and send an email with a download link to everyone who has the current version.

In Microstudio go to Tools/Default Folder and find the path to the folder. Use windows explorer to find the folder the files are in. Find the file you want to work with, right click on it and click on "Rename". Highlight the last 3 characters (BIN) and type in"CDG". Simple as that. For Keyrite to see the song files it must have a ".cdg" on the end of the file name. That is as simple as I can get it.

You will not even see the file extension if you dont have them turned on in the windows explorer Tools/folder options/hide extensions for known filetypes this option must be unchecked.

The Extension is the 3 characters that follow the filename.

IE: sc4566.cdg or sc4566.bin
