No background music in Age of Empires II Collectors Edition.

There is no background music in AoE II and AoE II Expansion.
I tried just about anything and have scoured the internet for people with the same problem.
Apparently, the problem is unusual for the collectors edition, as the background music for AoE II remains on the cd, after installation, to broadcast while playing the game.
I tried different things, but none were successful.

Yes, I turned up the volume on the computer and has nothing to do with a button "On / off music" non-existent.

This may help for future reference. If DVD media does not contain files in a first time, you are out of luck. If so, it is probably compressed in a format to archive, similar to what Activision did with the development of their game. Different may be a compatibility issue with this game and CD/DVD drives. Originally, if I'm not wrong, an audio cable should be connected to the sound card of the user and the CD/DVD drive to transmit data to the audio chipset. New disks do not use technology.

This could help:

Click Start, click Control Panel, click performance and Maintenance and then click System.
Click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
Click on the + (plus sign) next to CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives, click your CD-ROM drive, and then click Properties.
Click to check the digital audio CD activate this CD-ROM devices checkbox and then click OK.
On the file menu, click on exit to close the Device Manager window.

ALSO! Take a look at this:

It would be strange if the collectors edition lacked the OST and then the original edition had.

Thank you!

As always, do not install older programs in folders protected system (C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x 86)), choose a different folder target installation instead.

    Stop a download will often break the download, or it did when I was still using dial-up 56 k.
    The best way to get the successful download is to keep the machine running.
    I used to start the download before you go to bed and let it run overnight.
    Is there a particular reason, you must turn off your machine?
    It is also preferable to avoid making another on line jobs who can fly the download of the
    bandwidth when you have a slow connection. When a download is too slow it
    may also cause a corrupted file.

    If it's the only game that was a problem, then you can
    want to try the support of GameStop, but you deleted the file and restarted

    Hi Omarreyes,
     
    You can copy the contents of the game on the game CD on a removable media such as flash media, and then try to install the game.
     
    You can also use another external CD/DVD drive to install and play the game from the CD.
    If the problem persists, I suggest you to contact direct support for Windows games in the context of this question. You can check the link:

  • the volume control on background music

    I finished my first iMovie composed of video clips.  I have two questions:

    How to lower the volume of the background music for a few seconds only

    How to disappear the music of a song before the end of the song.

    Thank you

    Hi, grosen25,

    There are two ways to adjust the volume in the latest version of iMovie (10.1.2).

    One way is to select the audio clip, and then click on the speaker icon in the toolbar at the top of your screen.   This will reveal a scroll bar

    allows you to adjust the volume from 0 to 400%.

    Another way is to first click on the settings button in the right middle of your screen and select 'Show waveforms' in the dialog box that results.  Then select the audio clip.  You will see a horizontal volume control line that runs through the clip.  Place your cursor on the line and move it up or down to increase or decrease the volume.

    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and groups of tabs open and closed tabs (back) to get lost and you will have to re-create them (take note or bookmarks if possible).

    I use iMovie 10.1.2 on a MacBook Air from mid-2011.

    I am putting together a video where I interview different people. I added the accompanying music. Between clips of the interview, I inserted pictures. I want the background music to falter when I interview someone and then fade to the top when there is a picture.

    I chose each of the interview clips and checked the box to lower the sound of the other clips. For some reason any that doesn't always work. Sometimes the audio reduced as planned, but sometimes it does nothing. I tried to uncheck and check again, but still no luck. I also tried to add the support music once again, but it still doesn't work. I checked the audio support in case I had also chosen the lower the audio of other clips in the audio accompaniment, but I did not.

    Please could someone help!

    Perhaps she sometimes considers the volume of background music quite low compared to the clip of the interview.  You can always select a range in the background music and reduce the volume manually.  It is an extract help files:

    It should also work on the background music.
