When I try to run Age Of Empires with the CD in, I get a message "Please insert the right CD-ROM, select OK and restart the application.
Former title: Trouble running games CD, post installation under Vista. That is to say 2 AoE, Warrior kings.
I have vista on my laptop, I installed games like shogun and medieval total war and they both work perfectly, I tried to put it on the age empires and warrior kings: battles who are also on a cd format, I installed the last but they usually run after that. Although the instialltion is over, I get asked if I wanted to leave the program to run as administrator. : s
DVD/CD drive recognize there is a disc, but does not work automatically. I can't install the program normally when I run the setup.exe for the game. When I try to run the program with the CD in, I get a message "Please insert the right CD-ROM, select OK and restart the application.
I tried to run them in compatibility mode, using all variants. and also I tried soome of advice from the help article about the disk drivers. game discs are clean and one striped.
Why can I install the program and access the drive to use the files it contains, but then not use the disk?
This problem may occur if one of the following conditions is true:
a. you do not use the game disc to start the program.
b. the CD player is not compatible with the program.
c. using a copy of the program CD.
d. you are not connected to the computer as an administrator.
e. the programs interfere with the start of the game which is running but is invisible to you.
f. the CD-ROM drive uses out-of-date drivers.
Error message or the game stops responding on the "Loading" screen when you start a Microsoft game: "insert the right CD.

Original title: Age of empires
I have a pc and my son has a mac, and when we try to play together we get a lot of error field
Hello
1. which version of the Windows operating system is installed on your computer?
2 have you been able to play the game together sooner?
3. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
4 to the computer on which you receive the error?
These errors occur if the computers aren't on the same workgrouop. Give suggestions for the same thing. I suggest to create a task force and then try to play the game and check if it helps.

When I try to run programs, you'll see the 'Open with' window with IE the only choice.
It happened with my Norton Security. When I tried to open the window popped up. I chatted with their helpdesk and when they had to start a program, so they can open a session, the appeared window. They even try to determined the problem myself. When I tried to run the program the sent me, pops up the window.
I'd be inclined to make the Norton Support to fix it for you!
After all, it is their program.You could do a system restore, BUT it will probably cause Norton to play up!
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/
Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

I don't know what it is but Photos only shows videos of courses on April 22, 2013. I have iOS videos of 2010 on my hard drive on my iMac, but cannot see them in the pictures. When I try re - import the photos in the hard drive gives me a message saying that they are already imported but asks if I would like to import again. If I import them once again, I can see them under import last but still do not see in all the pictures or videos. It is across all devices. I cannot see them on iMac Photos program, cannot see them on iCloud.com in pictures, can not see them in the pictures on any iPad (mini (3rd generation) or Air 2) or iPhone 6s.
Any help would be great.

Then I get a message that it cannot be opened. It started with Office Word 2007, now it seems to touch almost all Windows programs.
Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

Moderator Forum Keith has a few suggestions along this line to
If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.
You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.
Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
