Download Silverlight For Mac

Silverlight is a powerful development tool for creating engaging, interactive user experiences for Web and mobile applications. Silverlight is a free plug-in, powered by the.NET framework and compatible with multiple browsers, devices and operating systems, bringing a new level of interactivity wherever.

Old versions of the Silverlight plugin for Mac OS X have been added to the Firefox add-on. We did this because these versions of the plugin are causing instability in Firefox, including crashing on popular sites such as Hotmail. The affected versions – all versions older than 5.1.0 – will be disabled. To avoid the block, we recommend that you visit the and update your Silverlight plugin to the latest version. If you are unable to update it, or for some reason you need to use the a blocked version of the plugin, it can be enabled again in the Add-ons Manager, in the Plugins pane.

I have deleted the plugin, reinstalled and restarted firefox, and although I can find the plugin in my library, I have no access to it in Firefox.

As far as I can tell, there is no way to simply “enable” the plugin, as it is not recognized within the add-ons manager at all. I use it to stream Netflix, and up until last night everything was working fine. What happened here?

Make sure that you are selecting the Plugins pane (you should see other plugins like Flash and Java on that list). If you still don’t see Silverlight there, I would recommend doing this: (1) close Firefox, (2), (3) delete pluginreg.dat, (4) start Firefox. Deleting this file is safe. Firefox will rebuild it out of the plugins in your system when it starts in step 4.

I cannot stream netflix with Firefox, and when I download Silverlight netflix does not recognize that it is already downloading and perpetually asks for me to download it. I spoke to netflix and they said it was a plugin problem, but admittedly I am not entirely computer facile or literate, and have been unable to figure out how to fix the problem. I would be grateful if you could advise and direct me to do this in easy and clearly understood steps if in fact this it the recognized problem. Have a nice day. • Jorge Villalobos wrote on: You might be able to get help from. To me it seems like you should be able to go to the Silverlight page and download and install the plugin from there, but I don’t know if there’s something else causing problems for you. • ouida wrote on: How can multi- billion dollar companies have such a glaring problem!?

Fix this shit!! • Jorge Villalobos wrote on: Mozilla is not a multi-billion dollar company. Are you referring to Microsoft, maybe? What exactly is the problem you’re having? • David wrote on: this is not just a problem on Mozilla it is also a problem with Safari • Candide wrote on: Update via: It seems the microsoft silvelight 5.1 download is actually spitting out the blocked 5.0 version.
