I use Visual Studio 2010, and I recently installed Silverlight 4 Toolkit. However I still can't access TimePicker. System.Windows.Control is in the Solution Reference, and it also doesn't show the new Silverlight controls. In the VS 2010 installation directory, I can see Silverlight 4 (and 3). Where am I doing wrong?
Are you referencing System.Windows.Controls.Input? Also, if your not already, toolkit can be installed with nuget.

I can't create a new ASP.NET Web Project via template. Clicking on "OK" crashes VS 2013 or shows the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
I'm using MS Windows 8.1 + Visual Studio 2013 Premium Update 3.
Extensions I am using:
.NET Reflector Pro
Brace Completer
Visual Power Tools
Web Essentials 2013 for Update 3
Maybe someone knows whats going on? I am running VS 2013 as admin. :(
I tried disabling all Extension, doesn't help.
It's a fresh install from MSDN.
Edit:
I just recognized that the templates show up, when I choose a .NET framework below 4.5:

EDIT 2:
Okay, reinstalling didn't help. I also uninstalled everything .NET related.
Okay I found the Problem.
in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies are three assemblies that prevent VS 2013 from showing up the assemblies. See this Question/Answer:
Can't create new MVC5 project or any other ASP .NET projects in Visual Studio 2013
Hello,
My operating system is Windows 7 - SP1 (64bit). I tried to create a Silverlight project in Visual Basic 2010 (Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate - SP1). Complete Install expect SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x64). But I got this message,
So I went to that link shown above (here it is) and downloaded the Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 and tried to install it and this is the message I get,
The link in the above message leads here. What needs to be done here to create a Silverlight project in Visual Basic 2010?
Thanks for Vinicius for the help in above comments.
This is what I did. I went to Programs and Features in Control Panel and uninstalled everything with the term "Visual Studio 2010". Then installed Visual Studio 2010 again. That's it. It worked. It created the Silverlight project with Silverlight 3. I also installed Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 after that and it created the project.
For some reason Visual Studio is showing me this weird, ugly skeleton design view when I try building Mango apps instead of the regular fully detailed view I used to get with the old 7.0 apps.
Any idea what setting I need to change to revert back to the old view? I've spent forever searching for the right option but can't find it anywhere.
Here's what my design view currently looks like:
Thanks,
Zain
I had the same problems few weeks ago. Normally an uninstallation would not really help. I guess you also have installed the Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1. So to solve your problem, uninstall all of your Visual Studio and Windows Phone Related Products, normally these are:
Visual Studio 2010 (or Express)
Visual Sudio 2010 SP1
Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh
After uninstallation install all products in the following order:
1) Visual Studio 2010 (or Express)
2) Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh
and after (1) and (2) install and apply the Visual Studio 2010 - Service Pack 1.
Thre problem is, that if you install the SP1 before the Game Studio, there are some missing links and files which are not patched and this leads to the missfunctionality of the Windows Phone Designer.
I hope, i was able to help you :)
I created a SilverLight solution in Visual Web Developer Express 2010. Now, my system got installed with Visual Studio 2010 Professional. On opening the existing express solution, I got the below error:
Unable to open project. An update to Microsoft Visual Studio is required to support the targeted version of SilverLight. Download the update at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkId=168436
It takes to install the add-on Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010. My question is 'Why itz not part and parcel of professional edition?'
If I recall correctly, the silverlight tools for VS2010 were released very shortly after VS2010 went RTM. Silverlight is a separate technology that isn't dependent on Visual Studio. It's developed by a different group and they have separate release schedules.
I'm blocked by the requirements even though I fulfill everyone. I had almost the same issue as the referenced here:
Cannot install silverlight 4 tools on visual studio 2010 sp1
The difference is that the solution did not work for me and I already did have Visual Web Developer installed.
I tried a complete re-install of VS 2010 and then installed SP1 which should have installed Silverlight4_Tools for me but references to System.Windows.Controls.Input.Toolkit did not work and nothing was added under "...Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v4.0". All I see when I look at all the .Net references available are the SL4 library references. For instance, I see "..\Client\System.Windows.Controls.Input.dll" but not "..\Client\System.Windows.Controls.Input.Toolkit.dll" and everything is labeled as version 2.0.5.0 with Runtime V2.0.50727 - which is a .Net 2 framework version and seems strange. The .Web project shows .Net 4 framework on project properties and the SL project show Silverlight 4 (in case anyone is wondering).
Any suggestions of what to try?
It is an old question, but it just happened to me although I had installed the Visual Web Devoleper feature.
I had to uninstall SP1 first, and also uninstall Silverlight 4 Tools, if you don't uninstall the Tools, the new installation silently fails (better if you uninstall everything related to Silverlight 4).
Then install SP1 again, and every piece of software that goes on SP1 (as for example, Async CTP).
Hope it helps
Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 is included in Visual Studio 2010 SP1
