Can i install mountain lion on my imac as well as my macbook?

I have downloaded mountain lion 10.8.2 to my macbook. Can I also put this on my imac? If so, how do I do it?

Yes you can. You need to log into the Mac App Store, on your iMac, using the EXACT same "Apple ID" that you used to download Mountain Lion to your MacBook, go to your Purchases list for that ID and download ML again for Free to the iMac.
Hope this helps

Can I install Mountain Lion 64-bit over top of 32-bit version installed by mistake. M/c is 24-inch mid 2007 iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (64-bit?)

Can I install Mountain Lion 64-bit over top of 32-bit version installed by mistake. Machine is 24-inch mid 2007 iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (64-bit?)

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Mountain Lion is a full 64-bit operating system. Why do you think Mountain Lion is 32-bit in your computer?
To check that you are definitely using a 64-bit operating system, open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities) and type:
uname -a
Then, tell us what you see at the end after RELEASE. If you see i386, you are running a 32-bit operating system. If you see x86_64, you are using a 64-bit operating system. Also, the processor of your Mac is 64-bit

I just installed Mountain Lion on my iMac that was previously running Snow Leopard. Bugt I found that some key applications no longer work, so I would like to go back to snow Leopard. I can't use time machine backups for this. what can I do?

I just installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. But In was dismayed to find that my Canon scanner software (Canoscan LIDE500F)no longer works. Nor do any of my MS offce applications. I tried to use time machine to reinstall Snow Leopard (my previous operating system), but unfortunately my time machine backups did not include system software. Also, the original system install disk that came with my iMac would not allow me to install Snow Leopard in place of Mountain Lion. I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to solve this problem.

The reason your Office doesn't work is because it is PowerPC code. If you will upgrade the 2004 Office to 2011 Office then that will work.
I don't understand how you managed to get your Time Machine backup to not backup the system.
Now if you still what to downgrade you will have to erase the disk and reinstall Snow Leopard. Most likely all of your application and then restore your data from Time Machine.
To me it sounds like it would be easier to upgrade your software and stay with Mountain Lion instead.

Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

HT4463 I Can't Install Mountain Lion On My Macbook

I Can't Install Mountain Lion On My Macbook White 10.6.8 (Late 2010) . It Goes Throught The Process, And Once It's Downloaded, It Doesn't Say To Restart. I Restart It On My Own And It Still Boots Up To Snow Leopard. I Tried Downloaded It Over And Over Again Five Times, And It Does The Same Thing. Does Any1 Have Any Insight On This Issue?

As a rule the Mac App Store won;t let you buy and download Mountain Lion if your hardware doesn't support it, so the first question is did you get ML from the MAS?
If so then what procedure are you following to install the OS? You wrote that
Once It's Downloaded, It Doesn't Say To Restart.
but downloading is only part of the installation process, what exactly is happening on the system?

I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer.

I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!
