==Getting an Incident Id==
*'''How to look up your own crash incidents.'''
How to find your incident id:
** In order to submit crash incidents, you must first have Talkback installed with your Mozilla product.  That is done one of two ways (I recommend #1):
*'''Find out where Talkback is installed.'''
*** (1) Manually by running a custom install and checking the Quality Feedback Agent component.
**Windows
*** (2) Automatically with a standard install, which will install Talkback everytime on Linux and Mac, and 20% of the time on Windows.
        Program                         Location
** Each crash submitted will have a unique Talkback Incident ID, and all of these are logged by the Talkback Client. You can see a list of your crashes by running talkback.exe in the following locations:
 
*** Windows - C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions\talkback@mozilla.org\components
        Firefox                         C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\extensions\talkback@mozilla.org\components\talkback.exe
*** Linux - /firefox/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/talkback/
        Thunderbird                    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\extensions\talkback@mozilla.org\components\talkback.exe
*** Mac -
        Mozilla Suite                      C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\Mozilla\components\talkback.exe
** From the Talkback Client window, you can grab any Incident ID (I know copy/paste works on Windows) and look it up with [http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/talkback/fastfind.jsp Talkback FastFind].
 
**Mac OSX
 
        Program                         Location
 
        Firefox                         /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/talkback/Talkback.app
        Thunderbird                    /Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/talkback/Talkback.app
        Mozilla Suite                      /Applications/Mozilla.app/Contents/MacOS/components/Talkback.app
 
**Linux
        Program                         Location
 
        Firefox                       /usr/local/firefox/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/talkback/talkback
        Thunderbird                          /usr/local/thunderbird/extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components/talkback/talkback
        SeaMonkey  (1.5a or earlier)          /usr/local/seamonkey/components/talkback/talkback
