Tried to get it free from my 2012 MBP, but they messed up and after the code they sent me says its already been redeemed. Lame. I opened a ticket with them and they said they would send me a new one. Now Im waiting.

Got it running on my rMBP now. Everything's good so far - CS6 working as normal.

Notification center is handy, and the new Safari is a big improvement.
The whole UI feels a little bit snappier compared to Lion, and gestures and mouse movements feel more responsive.

I need to have a play with the new apps but so far Mountain Lion feels great!

the real question is : did anything break? I have everything MAC but I also haveAdobe master Suite, DPP, Capture One, DXO Optics, Photomatix and a few other essential tools of the trade... I usually test these new releases on my laptop but alas my 2007 Mac Book isn't on the list that can be upgraded so I have no litmus test on this OS. My lap top mirrors my desktop when it comes to software so I know what will and won't work.. So I need people to chime in more than its great or Ichat is nice. Does any of the main software apps fail to launch or operate correctly after Mountain Lion???

So far so good here as well.

2011 MBP and 27 IMac... All software I tried so far works except an apparent older version of parallels on the IMac. The version on the MBP must be newer and works fine.

I agree with benesotor also regarding the UI seeming a bit snappier.. so far so good.

I'm hoping for a way to have all my computers sync up, but I don't think thats possible.

Bejesus - Safari is smokin' fast.


"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

I was waiting for a stable chrome release that supported Retina display, but I have to say I'm loving the new Safari. Super fast and gestures make web browsing such a pleasure.

Ok, so I've encountered a problem. When I was using LR4, I tried to edit a photo in CS5. It does not work. Before the upgrade, I would have no problem trying to edit in CS5 from LR4. Anyone else with this problem?
