hi,
i assume you are using a processing version 149 or higher. there have been changes to where contributed libraries are stored. below i am referring to the changes in revision 149
Quote:
Beginning with this release, all libraries should be placed in the sketchbook folder, inside a folder called "libraries". It's a bad idea to put them in the Processing libraries folder, because 1) users may not have access to that folder in lab environments, and 2) it's now hidden on OS X (see below).

hope this solves your problem.
