Notifications Menu

So on my administrator page, I have a clickable notifications menu.  Works 100% no error.  When I log in with a test profile with different parameters, I do not have a clickable notifications menu which is a problem due to the fact that is where my log out, profile, check out, etc buttons are located.  In my Pages section of the studio all levels of profiles should be able to see the clickable notifications menu.  Anyone have any idea where i may have turned off the ability to see this menu in the Configuration Studio?  I have been combing through everything for right around two days now and it is driving me absolutely nuts.  Thanks!
