There’s a link in my previous comment where you should find an explanation on how to find your profile folder: I had tried to download Silverlight several times and it wouldn’t show up. Thank you so much! This helped me and now I am able to watch Netflix. Firefox will rebuild it out of the plugins in your system when it starts in step 4. (1) close Firefox, (2) find your profile folder, (3) delete pluginreg.dat, (4) start Firefox. I couldn’t run netflix, and steps 1-4 solved my problem.
If you still don’t see Silverlight there, I would recommend doing this: (1) close Firefox, (2) find your profile folder, (3) delete pluginreg.dat, (4) start Firefox. Make sure that you are selecting the Plugins pane (you should see other plugins like Flash and Java on that list). What happened here?Įven when disabled, plugins should show up in the Plugins page in the Add-ons Manager. I use it to stream Netflix, and up until last night everything was working fine.
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 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. I downloaded the most recent version of Silverlight, and it does not even show in the plugin panel.

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. To avoid the block, we recommend that you visit the Silverlight page and update your Silverlight plugin to the latest version. The affected versions – all versions older than 5.1.0 – will be disabled.
We did this because these versions of the plugin are causing instability in Firefox, including crashing on popular sites such as Hotmail. Old versions of the Silverlight plugin for Mac OS X have been added to the Firefox add-on blocklist.
