When SP is installed it creates a set of WP capabilities for the WP admin that installed it. Something there on your system is stopping this from happening. The only one that stands out as a possible here is ‘Advanced Access Manager’ but I have to say I do not know exactly what that plugin is for, does or how it works. So I can’t say for certain.

I would say there are two options here. Uninstall SP to clear the current data and then deactivate say, the Advanced Access manager and maybe the User Switching plugins. Re-install to see if it works now and then reactivate those other two and check everything.

Or – I can give you the data to paste directly into the database to set you up as you should be. Depends if you are happy to go poking around in the db!
