I have a few different keybind feature sets saved for different situations, and I would like to back them up and transfer them to a different machine so I don't have to recreate them there. Does anyone know where Sibelius stores the files created when you make a custom keybind feature set?

Not totally sure,but have your computer search for a folder called Keyboard Shortcuts. See if your files are in there.

I ended up finding it on my own, at least on Windows. They're stored in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Avid\Sibelius\Keyboard Shortcuts. If anyone here would be able to tell me where that translates to on a Mac I'd appreciate it.

I suggested a Windows search of your computer because I have an older version of Sibelius and the path is not quite the same in newer versions. And most people don't have the AppData folder visible.
Look for "User editable files" in your manual. It will show you something like this:

"* Windows: C:\Users\username\Application Data\Avid\Sibelius 7.5\
* Mac OS X: /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Avid/Sibelius 7.5"

For your version of Sibelius.
