I just tried installing several extensions at once. That did not work so well. I got the same response as you, after closing and re-starting firefox, the extensions still said they would be installed when firefox was re-started. Uninstalling all but one extension yet to be installed and then restarting did the trick. Maybe it doesn't like installing multiple extensions at once. Try uninstalling one and restarting firefox, then installing the other. Jonathan
