I swear I had this working the other day. Maybe I went cross-eyed or something.

C: is my mounted DOSBox folder.
I have quake.bin and quake.cue in my C:\QUAKE dir.

When I try:

imgmount d quake.cue -t iso -usecd 0

I get an Image not found error. I am in C:\QUAKE when I run the command. Using C:\QUAKE\quake.cue doesn't help either.

Am I missing something here? I thought you were allowed to mount CD images from your mounted folders (i.e. C:).

Any help would be appreciated.

and remove the -usecd 0 part. that is only used with regular mount. not imgmount

look at the cue file with an editor and make sure that the path to the bin is correct.
The text should look somehow like that:
FILE "Quake.bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
....

if the cue and the bin are in the same directory, it is enough to have just filename written in there and not the path to it.
FILE "c:\path to wherever that image is located\Quake.bin" BINARY is often asking for trouble 😀

Thank-you. The superfluous "-usecd 0" command was the problem. If you put -usecd 0 on the end it must be parsing that as the image name and giving that error. Using the Mac version BTW.

For anyone that want to know, with the "new" Mac keyboards you have to press the "Fn" key before you do any Ctrl-Function key commands.

fn+ctrl+F4 works to swap disk images.

Thanks to everyone who has replied!!
