Did you restart the browser after installation? If this does not solve
the problem I do not know what will. The plugins should also be visible
trough the "Tools/Add-ons" menu where you can enable/disable them. 

I will recommend you not to install all the plugins. There is some bug
(or it seems to me) when there is more than one plugin installed in
Gecko/FF/IceCat (and Epiphany/WebKit too). The information provided by
the plugins for the mime types is overlapping and misleading. This way
the web controls will not work. Other than that I am not sure are there
any problems.

That is the purpose of the button, I find the whole process
inconvenient. If it suits you, then OK.
