There was a recent update (in proposed) to add:
- acroread.desktop
- fluendo.desktop
- pdvd.desktop
- flash10.desktop
- fluendo-wmv.desktop
Also see:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/app-install-data-commercial/+bug/370187>

On my 32bit I'm showing (Add/Remove Third party...)
Adobe Flash Plugin 10
Adobe Reader 9
Fluendo Complete Playback Pack Documentation
Fluendo Windows Media and MP3 Documentation
PowerDVD Linux Documentation

and I am updated on proposed.

Could it be that you are not seeing the two Adobe apps because you are

No 64bits there.
