Missing Siverlight templates in Visual Studio 2008 - c#

I have Visual Studio 2008 (sp1, .NET 3.5).
I have installed Silverlight 3 SDK and Silverlight 4 SDK beta + Sivelrlight toolkit.
I also have installed Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP that includes Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone CTP.
I have noticed that when i start a new project in VS2008 all the Silverlight templates are missing.
Any tip how to get them?
Thanx !

Sliverlight 4 integrates with Visual Studio 2010. You can currently get the Release Candiate of VS 2010.

Silverlight in visual studio 2013

Is there a way to connect silverlight or silverlight tools to visual studio? Everything i download says.. Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Web Developer Express 2010 or Visual Phone Developer Express 2010 that matches the language version of Silverlight Tools 4 must be installed before installation of Silverlight Tools can continue. Silverlight Tools is available in other languages at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=177432.
The Visual Web Developer feature for Visual Studio 2010 must be installed before installation can continue.
But any tools i try and download say they are unsuitable. Does silverlight 4 or 5 not work with visual studios 2013, has anyone tried this and got it working?
Visual studio 2012 and 2013 comes with Silverlight 5 by Default,
You can create projects with Silverlight directly in Visual Studio 2012 RC. For more Visual Studio 2013 RC compatibility issues please refer to:

How to add XNA Content Pipeline to Silverlight 5 in Visual Studio Web 2010 Express?

The Silverlight 5 XNA samples, I presume are built in Visual Studio Professional editions as when when opening them in Visual Web Express 2010 it cannot open the Content Projects.
NB: I have reported the issue here, so watch out for a resolution there.
How can I use the Content Pipeline for a Silverlight 5 application using Visual Studio 2010 express editions? Or if that is not possible - how can I at least use the ContentManager to import pre-built .xnb files?
(I have all the requirements, apart from Pro edition it seems, and can draw primitives. I can actually run the platformer sample so there must be way)
Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 is not supported in the Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express product SKU. See the MSDN article from here, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb203916.aspx, portions of which are copied here for your convenience.

WP7 XNA+Silverlight Templates missing

I got an issue with Visual Studio, Silverlight 5 Beta SDK and XNA.
I did a fresh install of all Visual Studio components I need to create the application I have in mind:
Visual C# 2010 Express
XNA Game Studio 4.0
Visual Web Developer 2010 Express
Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone
Visual Studio 2010 SP1
Silverlight 5 Beta Tools
However, when I start VS 2010 Express for Windows Phone and go to create a new project these are the templates I have:
Missing Templates
But there are a few templates missing.
How can I make appear the following templates:
Full list of templates
So what am I missing in this? I believe I installed everything and still nothing appears.
Is it because I'm using the express edition of visual studio? it doesn't make much sense though.
You installed that SDK correctly (uninstalled a previous installed SDK version correctly too)?
You could try and reset your vs2010 settings. This sometimes helps to restore missing project templates. You can do so like this:
Go to Tools / Import Export Settings
Choose to "Reset all Settings"
Restart Visual Studio
No guarantees but that helped me once before, so it is probably worth a try.
Just for others to know, you must have Visual Studio 2010 service pack 1(download link) before that.
