In the new Firefox, I have no back button, no "most frequently visited" and there is no longer an option to save tabs when I close.
Many features have disappeared. There is no back button to go to the previous page. There is no "most frequently visited" icon on the toolbar. I am not asked if I want to save all my tabs when I close firefox. There is no recently bookmarked tab on the toolbar. Everything takes longer to get to. The tabs don't automatically stay open.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Another possibility is to use:
- Firefox (Tools) > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
Do you still have the Bookmarks Toolbar visible?
Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
Make sure that you have the Bookmarks Toolbar and the Navigation Toolbar visible: "View > Toolbars"
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
- Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
- If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
- If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button
