Re: I'm not exactly getting Spotlight in ML
Here Spotlight doesn't work at all since Mountain Lion on my two machines. When I type a search term Spotlight finds several results but as soon as I move the cursor down - either with VO + arrow down or just arrow down - all results are vanished except for the definition from the encyclopedia.

it works fine for me but since many people are experiencing trouble with this, sounds like writing to apple accessibility is in order. At least they should know about the problem.
