On the menu bar, click on the Tools menu, and then click Add-ons. In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Plugins panel. Do you see the QuickTime and Silverlight plugins listed? If you see an Enable button for any listed plugins, click on it to enable the plugin.

If your plugins are enabled, here is a page with links you can use to test your plugins: *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_plugins
