Is there a subtext that it is really only supported on Windows though? Microsoft has stated that they plan to support Silverlight through 2021. Who is at fault on this? Apple or Microsoft? Both? Neither?
Microsoft silverlight mac os x mac os x#
Anyone have any insight into the reasons behind this? Does Silverlight work fine for you on your Mac OS X 10.8.2 machine? I just want to know what gives rise to issues like this? Is it that Microsoft is not consistently testing Silverlight well whenever Mac comes out with a new version of the Mac OS X, or would it be more likely that Apple is specifically trying to subvert Microsoft Silverlight (and other programs apparently) on purpose for some reason? There are apparently a lot of random crashes happening on Mac OS X 10.8.2, with Microsoft Office, and other non-Microsoft applications. People having problems with Netflix on Macs, and problems where a program called MacKeeper messes up the Silverlight installation. There are lots of supposedly "miraculous" solutions, but it doesn't seem to be right that end users would have to jump through hoops to get this to work. There is a lot of evidence on the Internet that many people have been having this same kind of problem. Our app also runs as expected on that Mac machine. I have a Mac that runs Silverlight 5 perfectly but it is a Mac OS X 10.6.8 machine (Snow Leopard). The customers who seem to be having the most trouble are using Mac OS X 10.8.2 (the latest Mountain Lion) Also, our Silverlight 5 app does not start up on that machine. I have customers who are showing me Mac OS X core dumps that show calls being made to the Mac OS X that cause a Signal Abort (SIGABRT), upon opening the default Silverlight preferences on the Mac.
