Are you Testing Any SilverLight Application in MAC?

on 20090409

Hi All,

Any of you testing SilverLight Applications in MAC?
Make sure you have Intel based MAC or iMAC. PowerPC based MAC machines does not support SilverLight 2.0 or above. It supports only SilverLight 1.0.

So if you are testing SilverLight 2.0 or above technologies based applications in MAC, the minimum requirement is iMAC with MAC OS X version 10.4.5

Make sure you have Intel based MAC or iMAC. Because PowerPC based MAC machines does not support SilverLight 2.0 or above. It supports only SilverLight 1.0.
Most of Microsoft's SilverLight based websites works both in SilverLight 1.0 and SilverLight 2.0 technologies. So these websites works fine in PowerPC based MAC machine too. But if your application only supports SilverLight 2.0 or above, that will not work in PowerPC based machine. So before starting the testing, try to install SilverLight 2.0 or above in the MAC machine. If SilverLight is installed without any error, you are ready to start testing the Application in MAC.


Conclusion: So if you are testing SilverLight 2.0 or above technologies based applications in MAC, the minimum requirement is iMAC with MAC OS X version 10.4.5.
