Downloading Sibelius (.sib) Files

Problem: Recent web servers from Microsoft (IIS 6+) refuse to serve any file unless it has a "known extension" (i.e., .bin, .doc, .exe, .jpg, .pdf, etc.). Unfortunately, Sibelius (.sib) music-notation files are not yet in the "known" category.

Solution: I have modified each file name by adding a second extension of ".bin" (indicating a binary file) after the first extension of ".sib". This permits you to Save (download) the file, although you cannot Open it (view its contents) on-line. After you finish your download, manually rename your copy of the file by removing the second (.bin) filename extension. Then (assuming your computer has a recent version of Sibelius software installed) you should be able to open the file just by double-clicking on it.

Good luck!
