Silverlight plug-in problem

Have just downloaded Silverlight which appeared to install OK but when I try to run it I get a window that says "need to check that the programme will work" but this step had already been completed during the installation. Has anyone got it to work?

I tried during the Olympics and couldn't get it to work, so I trashed it and gave up on watching anything that requires the Microsoft plugin. I know there are users whose install works, but we could not find why it would work here but not there.

I always have a problem with the silverlight plug-in crashing when I use Firefox 3.6. What is the solution to this?

The problem occurs when I try to respond to an email or forward an attachment with an email. I always get a message that "the silverlight plug-in has crashed". I send a crash report or reload the page but it does not solve the problem.

You can try to disable Out-Of-Process-Plugins for the Silverlight plugin to see if that helps. This may however cause Firefox to crash instead.

Silverlight plug-in does not works in FireFox 4 - beta 7 ( Mac OS 10.6.6 ) !!!! What is the problem ? I don't have any installed add-on !!!

Hi every one
Silverlight plug-in does not works in FireFox 4 - beta 7 ( Mac OS 10.6.6 ) !!!!
I don't have any installed Extensions except "Better GReader" and "Video Helper" !!!
I have problem with Seesmic.com and installing applications that required Silverlight !
I installed latest version of Silverlight many times.
Please help me.
(I don't have any problem with Safari or other Web Browser.)
Thank You all.

Silverlight only supports non-64 bit versions of Firefox on OSX (and from Firefox 4 onwards we're shipping 64-bit Firefox to 64-bit OSX users) and unlike with other plugins, we can't just start a 32-bit process to run it because of issues with the silverlight plugin architecture. We're working with the Silverlight team at Microsoft to get those fixed but it's essentially waiting on them.
(Or you could try to pressure them into releasing a 64-bit Silverlight for Macs.)

Missing radio buttons on web pages, solution: remove Silverlight plug-in

Missing radio buttons.
When trying to use a page with radio buttons..they were not appearing.
Cause: Microsoft Silverlight plug-in that was installed along with free Flip4Mac software.
Solution: Remove file 'Silverlight.plugin' from /Library/Internet Plug-ins
(Also, the plug-in was taking over display of Quicktime movies replacing Quicktime's controls.)

Above is a solution to help others with same problem due to Microsoft Silverlight plug-in.

Überhitzung durch Silverlight Plug in

Liebe Leute,
mein MacBook Air läuft nach ca. 2 Minuten heiß und wird laut, sobald das Silverlight Plug in aktiv wird (z. B. Film bei Lovefilm.de angucken). Hat jemand eine Lösung für dieses Problem?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Silverlight plug-in update - can't get it to work

Silverlight plug-in disabled on Mac laptop: I tried updating several times - I get a message telling me that the update is installed - but the the plug-in remains disabled. How do I get the update to work? Thank you.

With the last Firefox upgrade, some plugins are no longer
enabled until you enable it.
Open the Add-ons Manager by
Pressing the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by; '''Tools > Add-ons.'''
Hot key; '''<Control> ''(Mac: <Command>)'' <Shift> A)'''
On the left side of the page, select Plugins.

Depending on the CSS, live view and design view can be totally different.
Its often best to type in your copy in the divs and then add the CSS to format it.
Post the css and the set of divs with some content in order to enable people to try work out what is wrong.

When I view or upload files (such as on You Tube) there is no longer normal image movement. All action has a "strobe" effect as in slow motion, but audio seems normal. Is this a plug-in problem?

All of a sudden when I view a file that's been downloaded, or viewed on line, whether in Windows Media, or on You Tube on line site, or Power DVD Play program, the image appears as if it was in a slow motion "strobe" effect, while the audio sounds consistent, (barring the frequent stalls). If I burn a DVD, it has the slow motion strobe effect burnt into the disc as well & is difficult to view on a DVD player. Is this a plug-in problem that has suddenly manifested, and is there a way of getting the system back to it's normal operation??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Since about 2 weeks ago.

Hello Joe.
Try disabling all add-ons (that's extensions, plugins and themes, go into ''Tools > Add-ons'') except for Flash and see if the problem persists. If they don't, enable one add-on at a time until you find the problem. If they do, try a new [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles Firefox profile] and see if it has the same issues. If it does (make sure other plugins aren't enabled), you need to contact Adobe for support on their Flash plugin ([https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ updating] it will be the first thing they tell you to do). If it doesn't, please tell me.

Is microsoft Silverlight plug-in safe to run on OSX 10.7.5?

Is Microsoft Silverlight plug-in safe to run on OS X 10.7.5 ? Looking to stream download movies from Netflix

berdel,
For now, you will indeed need Silverlight for Netflix on your Mac. As rkaufmann87 suggested, you should always get any plugin directly from the manufacturer and keep it updated frequently for security reasons.
The good news is that Netflix is currently working on doing away with the Silverlight dependency. Within a few months we should all be able to cellebrate when Netflix releases a new version that uses modern HTML5 instead of Silverlight, and will run on all standards-complient browsers such as Safari, Chrome, and Firefox.

Safari - Flash and Silverlight Plug-ins NOT working

Safari does not seem to recognize my Flash and Silverlight Plug-ins so that I can watch and stream videos. I might have messed it up, but I can not fix it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

There's no Auval or RA or Garritan Personal Orchestra in the Audio Units Manager in Logic Pro. Though Stylus RMX that I also use and Kontakt Player 2 are there and successfully validated. The RA and Kontakt Player component are exactly in the place you said they would be.
I've since discovered that RA does not in fact work in Logic Express. As for whether it's loading up in Rosetta or PPC version - how do I tell that?
I really appreciate your help but I'm still stuck at square 1. Any more suggestions?!!

What do I do when my silverlight plug quits responding

When I am on a website like facebook or netflix I get a message stating that the silverlight plug in has quit responding do I want to close it or continue. It has stopped responding when I am playing in a facebook game called farmtown and it has also quit when I am using netflix and watching videos. Is this plug in important and do I have to have it?

I have the most recent version of silverlight I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it to make sure. The trouble I am having still exists I am still getting the same message telling me that the silverlight plug in is either busy or not responding do I want to wait or cancel. When I click either wait or cancel mozilla freezes up and quits responding. I know I have to have the plugin but it is not doing what it is supposed to be doing.

Has anyone used microsoft silverlight plug-in on a mac mini?

Does microsoft silverlight plug-in work well on a mac mini?

Some of those who thought they needed it seemed to be able
to use it in Mavericks 10.9.2; not sure how well it works in the
newer 10.9.3.
Be sure to get it from Microsoft site and not softonic or cnet
downloads where some files have been found to be of a
questionable content, or contain adware or malware.
http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/
The plugin listed for Mac OS X (intel) says it will work from
Mac OS X 10.5.7 to present; nothing about upgrade version
for Mavericks 10.9.3 specifically, so there may be issues.
Good luck!

Problem with Microsoft Silverlight Plug-in on administrative account

I've tried installing, uninstalling and reinstalling Microsoft Silverlight onto my administrative account on my Macbook and it doesn't seem to work. However, when I started a new test account and installed Silverlight, it worked perfectly. Any ideas to why my administrative account won't let me install this plug-in?

I have the same problem, I think. I migrated to my new MacBook Pro yesterday and it won't run Netflix instant play. I get error code N8156-6013 that I have an internet problem. My husband bought an identical machine and his works. All I could find is that he had an earlier version of Silverlight. I updated mine even further to see if the version I had was just incompatible - and still no go.
Any great ideas? I would happily uninstall plugins, but I don't know which to try and how to get them back if I need them!
Thanks...
