When you installed Ableton, you agreed to have your VST dll's stored somewhere on your computer. If you're like me, you installed them in the same folder as your "other" sequencer app, like Logic. You need to find that folder.

If all else fails, do a search on your harddrive for anything ending in "dll." It may take a few minutes, but you'll find where they all are.

perform a search for the term "VST" on your entire computer.
