I was using Private Browsing on 3 tabs and suddenly it crash . When it restarted back, the 3 tabs gone.

The tabs is really important for me, how to get the website address back ?

I did submit the crash report, is that possible for me to get the link back via the crash report

No that is not possible. Such Crash URLs are not publicly available,not even to the crash report submitter. (They could be used in correlation report generation or automated testing of those URLs)

In future if website addresses are important bookmark them or otherwise copy and record them. Had you used ordinary browsing you would have had access at least to the history information that would normally include such information (depending on your choice of settings)

You appear to be using Firefox 16 ! you should update that is old insecure and unsupported.

If you have problems with crashes other than on single specific faulty sites see

That is a disadvantage of running Firefox in Private Browsing mode that Firefox doesn't store or otherwise keep data from a Private Browsing mode session, so you lose all open tabs in case of a crash.
You would have to bookmark open tabs that you consider important especially if Firefox crashes often.


Note that Firefox 16.0.2 is the last version for OS X 10.5.x

So your only option to keep using Firefox would be to update to OS X 10.6.8

Another option to consider is to install the last Firefox 10.0.x ESR version as that version is more recent than the Firefox 16.0.2 version.
