Normal. Unless the roof is made with tongue and groove ply, there is no way to have flawless seams. You shouldn't have staples or nails coming up, nor seams over @ 2/8".

When you say "I have tried to pop the round fasteners into the groove on the bottom of the window to no avail." Do you mean the screen? Or the actual glass?
