What he said- You have to setup the phone number with iMessage using the phone first.. get the ios6 beta if you have access to it, it works on the beta.
I noticed this right away after installing 10.8, and I hate it. I actually did some research a few weeks ago and came across a thread that was discussing the problem. I can't find the thread now, but one of the posts included the 10.7 default color profile. I've been using it since then and let me tell you, it is night and day. Everything looks normal again. You can download the .icc file here:

To install it, simply drag and drop the .icc file to "/Library/Colorsync/Profiles/". Then open System Preferences -> Displays -> the Color tab -> and choose the second "Color LCD" profile (you may have to uncheck "Show profiles for this display only").
I just want it to fix the nasty freezing bug I've experienced since updating to ML. Nothing responds to the cursor, graphic errors appear on the dock icons and the only way to fix is a forced reboot. I never had anything comparable occur under Lion.
If you share a family computer, you should still use different user accounts. That way, you don't have that problem. You don't even have to log off to switch user accounts so there really is no reason not to.

Something tells me that 1.1 percent are ppl who merged their .me and .icloud email accounts...
Glad they finally fixed iMessages... that's literally all I've ever wanted from Apple... ever. Literally.
Does this integration also apply to ipads? When I use my Wifi iPad will I also receive texts sent to the phone?
Also, does this only apply to new messages or are all existing conversations backed up to IMessage?

You don't understand. Features like that NEED time to be rolled out, just all of a sudden including it among thousands of other changes in an OS (or any software for example) can spell chaos and trouble. Add that to millions of different users in different regions of the world with thousands of different configurations and see what might happen. Improving features and adding new ones aren't necessarily (if ever) a step by step basis drawn on a map.
Love the Messages across devices thing for phone numbers but I'm wondering if Apple will somehow allow multiple numbers on the same iCloud account? My wife and I share the same iCloud account (for Apps mainly) and obviously have 2 numbers.

Looks like a great update. Sorting in Notes is a wonderful surpriseseemed very un-Apple this wasn't included to begin with. Let's hope iOS6 does the same.
I hope Reminders is now full screen, like every other included app, and we can sort those too.
Mountain Lion is a great OS, but there are definitely some rough edges which feel more Microsoft 1997 than Apple.

As long as the messages are iMessages (blue), all of the iMessages will show up on every device that you own that is signed into the same iCloud account.
I can see SOME benefit to people sharing iCloud accounts... but if you're sharing it and using iMessages, I for one wouldn't want everybody sharing it to be able to see all my messages or be sending and receiving using my account (you will get every text sent and received... including all notifications, unless they've been read on the device being used at the time).

That mostly has to do with your processor/graphics quality... if you have an older Mac (even a couple years old), most likely the choppiness won't be fixed. It COULD be, however, because graphics (among other deeper invisible changes) have been improved.

Does this mean they'll start shipping new updated iMacs tomorrow with 10.8.2?? I know, I know, I'm dreamin but dam I really need that iMac
I dont want freakin Facabook on my Mac
If I did I'd use an App, same for Twitter, etc, etc
Stop filling my OS with stuff I don't want, don't need and can add if or when I do.
They just made the OS nice and fast again - so stop with the bloat

As someone else mentioned, this rather major OS X update could mean an iMac refresh... And if that is the case, and the other rumors about updated iPod Touch, iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle refreshes are correct, that makes a total of 5 major device updates for the day (including, of course, the new iPhone) -- so just maybe that 5 in the event invite really wasn't about the name of the new iPhone, and was a misdirection based on 5 major product refreshes. In other words, maybe the new iPhone won't be called the iPhone 5 after all, and it will go with "New iPhone" like the New iPad. Just a thought. In any case, we'll find out in a little over 10 hours.
