The default configuration is different depending on which operating system you are using. For instance, on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, the orange Firefox button appears rather than the menu bar, but on Windows XP, the menu bar is on. These are just settings that you can easily edit.
To get the Firefox button, see Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar

To get tabs on top of the navigation bar, right-click anywhere on the tab bar, and select "Tabs on Top".

You can hide the menu by de-selecting it from View > Toolbars. It will automatically bring the Firefox button (orange) and re-arrange your tabs awesomely.

I hope that helps

Thank you Chris_Ilias. I went on-line to (How do I get the Firefox Button?) and it was a quick fix. Now I am trying to get the Tabs above the Awesome Bar? Thank you, Karl
