Perfect!!! amazing! thanks a lot!

Indeed I didn't copy the plug-in to the /Library/... destination directory using the Finder.  Mostly when I work as administrator I do it using sudo in the Terminal.  In this case I copied the plug-in this way too.  It might be interesting to mention it on the web installation notes.
