[QUOTE="Mitramonday, post: 1699342, member: 368965"] Hi all - I was trying to watch an Amazon Prime video and got the message that Silverlight needed updating, which I did. Then it told me Silverlight wasn't installed. I have tried various remedies, including uninstalling and reinstalling with no change to the message. Apple Support can't help (beyond making sure I had uninstalled/reinstalled correctly) because it's a Microsoft product. Microsoft can't help because I'm using an Apple OS x:Not-Amused:. I tried downloading WineBottler, intending to use Microsoft Internet Explorer, but wasn't sure if that would support Silverlight (and, anyway, I received a message saying "the programme regsvr32.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close” which alarmed me somewhat.). I am a relative newbie to Apple products, as well as a self-confessed tech idiot:[. Is anyone able to help (in simple ABC language!).... [/QUOTE]
