The "admin" folder is or should be re-named for security reasons. Can you access your admin? If so, look at its url to see the admin folder name. If not, compare your zencart on your server with zencart on your computer, top level. One of the different folders on your server should be your admin folder area.
Many plugins have to be assigned to your current template. When looking at the file structure of the plugin, you may see something like "YOUR TEMPLATE" or "CUSTOM TEMPLATE". What you do is rename that folder to the name of your template folder you are using. So, if you're using, say, the barebones template, you would rename those folders to barebones. (Usually using small case.)
Other plugins may additionally require inserting a piece of code into a current file. Such as the Ask a Question mod which needs a piece of code in the tpl product info display file, in addition to its plugin folders and files. I'm about ready to try this plugin again on my new 1.5 zencart, I think it will work.
As I recall, Easy Populate 4 only touches the admin folders. If you don't see your (probably re-named) admin folder, I can see why your Easy Populate and probably Apsona failed.
When uploading a plugin that touches the admin folder, you can re-name the plugin's admin folder to match your re-named admin folder.
