Can't configure FindBugs, Checkstyle, or PMD in NetBeans

I am attempting to configure Checkstyle, PMD, and FindBugs in Netbeans 7.4. I have installed all three using the Software Quality Environment update center: (http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/sqe/lastStableBuild/artifact/build/full-sqe-updatecenter/updates.xml).

All three analyzers work fine, and I can use them to scan my code. However, I cannot configure them, and the yellow non-existent "trailing whitespace" errors are hurting my brain.

I am following the tutorial here: http://marxsoftware.blogspot.com/2011/08/configuring-sqe-plugins-in-netbeans-7.html

When it gets the step of Project Properties -> Quality -> Checkstyle, I only get the following sentence on the screen, for each plugin...

 "No Maven Checkstyle Plugin found.  Falling back to global settings."

 "No Maven FindBugs Plugin found.  Falling back to global settings."

 "No Maven PMD Plugin found.  Falling back to global settings."

Any ideas on how to configure these bad boys? Thank you.
