Hi Altur,

If you've located the directory but the button still isn't showing up it simply means you aren't extracting the addon correctly. Please keep in mind you cannot put the zipped or unzipped folder directly into the Addons folder; you need to remove the standard named folder with the .toc file within the very next folder.

Example, if you download Cartographer from some website and extract it you get a file called: Cartographer-r2275. This is not the folder to have inside Addons, you would need to open that and remove the containing files and put that in.

If that doesn't work, I would suggest reposting on our UI and Macros forum for further assistance, as Technical Support does not provide support for addons (I can only give you basics of where they go, etc).
