In Safari, the test seems to render okay but then I get an error from Safari itself: 'A problem occured with this webpage so it was reloaded', leading to the page being reloaded automatically until Safari gives up and tells me that an error repeatedly occured with the page.

However, the test linked above merely offers an 'Install Microsoft Silverlight' icon.

In Chrome: I had to use the 'Get more extensions' option inside of Chrome to install.

Part way through Lion (10.7.5) Apple added a feature, Gatekeeper, that prevents applications that aren't properly signed from being installed. The answer is that your Mac's security settings are probably preventing the installation.

Either change to a browser that does support Silverlight, or investigate the availability of streaming HTML5 video from Amazon Prime. On the right, look for Silverlight Plug-In, and click the Disable button next to it. The moderators are incorrect Silverlight runs fine under OS X and you don't need to install Windows on your Mac. As you observed, Safari 12 has ended browser plug-in support, so it wouldn't matter if Silverlight were supported on the Mac, it would not work with Safari 12 anyway. FYI, the plugin is set on 'Always activate' in about:addons and disabling AdBlock did not help. Microsoft ended development and support of Silverlight for the Mac, and any Safari browser, in late 2016.

In Firefox: the official 'Get Silverlight' page tells me the plugin is installed ('Silverlight 5 (4.0)'), however the test page linked above renders black.

To install, I'm merely using the Silverlight.dmg file and its installer to install. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Silverlight but without success. I had Silverlight version 4 installed before but never got it to work (I don't know if this was before or after my Yosemite update.)

(As opposed to a big black square of nothing.) 2) Troubleshooting This should offer a menu and various content, mostly pictures. I guess Im looking for someone to point me to a website that still has the installer I can download as Microsofts own Silverlight download page no longer works.

To start with, can anyone tell me if this Silverlight test works for them on Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.1) ? I'm not getting much success at all so far, nor help from the Web. I'm trying to get Silverlight to work on Mac OS X, any browser would do.
