Ah. This is more due to a mild ambiguity of terms and the separation of equipment and powers as equipment. To create a utility belt, you would have to do the Device as Equipment option under the equipment add (not the weapons and armor add even though most items built with powers are essentially weapons and armor) and then set up the other equipment as APs. Unfortunately, that means creating everything out of whole cloth rather than just selecting it off the list. It's a minor thing in my opinion since most people building a utility belt are looking to go a step or two above normal equipment values, but it is something to note.
Containers are essentially to group equipment together so that you can transfer equipment. Say, you toss your rucksack across rooftops to a teammate. There's a way to transfer those items in HeroLab so that they're attached to him.
