I am trying to access a web API using an HttpWebRequest in C#. However, whenever I attempt to use the method GetResponse I get an error that the method does not exist.

However it is clearly defined here that GetResponse should work.

I have done something almost identical to this on a different app. The code for that app was written on a different machine. Still, is it possible to perform a GetResponse without having to muck with threads?

    I think that is caused because you’re on Silverlight which has a subset of the actual framework. You should use the async methodsof the GetResponse. It seems it’s duplicated on this post Can't find HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() in WP7 Project
