For VS, you need to right click on the toolbox, go to the Choose Items... dialog and check the controls in the WPF Components tab of that dialog. There is a textbox at the bottom of the tab that you can use to filter the list - e.g. enter "Infragistics3.".
For Blend, as long as you have the assemblies in the references the elements should be in the Asset Library in the Custom Controls tab since Blend automatically populates this tab based on the references.
Asset Library in Custom Controls doesn't show up with the xam controls. I have done exactly what you have said.
The controls don't control the population of the toolbox or asset library - that is handled by VS and Blend - so I don't see how nothing can be showing up in the Custom Controls tab. You may want to contact the support group - http://es.infragistics.com/gethelp/default.aspx - and provide steps on how they can reproduce the issue so they can look into the matter.
We could able to get the xam controls in the toolbar. However, if we drag & drop it to the editor, it throws an error (Unable to locate license assembly). However, we do have license key for xam controls. We are using VS.Net 2008.
