Normal behaviour (between PCs - I don't use a Mac) is for the color scheme NOT to show in the colors drop down unless you send the XML file. Obviously they do show in the Format shapes menu. We usually create an install file which installs the potx and the xml but if this was standard pro designer's PCs would soon have long menus of custom colors!
