==================================

the VS2013 contains the x64bit Architecture version. OpenCV 2.4.9 used in this vesrion. you should change the "OpenCV_Debug2.4.9" and "OpenCV_Release2.4.9" Property Sheets to ensure that it have the correct path for OpenCV 2.4.9 , and make sure that you add the OpenCV to the environment variables correctly. you could change the Architecture for x86 from the Property Sheets.
