I was able to set Firefox 3.5 to reopen all the tabs which were closed when exited Firefox. I cannot do it with Firefox 3.6.

I use Firefox 3.6.2 on a 2009 MAC Pro using OSX 10.6.5. Before upgrading to Firefox 3.6 I was able to configure Firefox 3.5 to reopen all the tabs which had been closed during exiting Firefox prior to reopening it. I am unable to configure Firefox 3.6 to do the same. Now, when I open Firefox it always opens with one tab with my homepage. It would be much more convenient for me to have all the tabs which had been opened to reopen. When I change a plug-in in order to the change to take effect I have to exit and reopen Firefox, thus losing all the open tabs.

If you use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox in Firefox 3.5 and later to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.
