How do I get my Mac and iPhone sync with iMessage. I prefer my Mac to use my iPhone's number. I know that this feature was added in the latest Mac update (OS X 10.8.2), but how do I active this feature?
 
all you should have to do is update OSX to 10.8.2 and then open messages and it should pick up your phone number from your apple id.
