Mountain Lion Switcher (Cmd+Tab) not showing all apps

Solution 1:

I had this same issue right after I upgraded. In fact, the open app indicator in the Dock wasn't working for open apps either. I just restarted the computer and all is good now. The application switcher(cmd-tab) shows all open apps and the open app indicator in the Dock is working too.

Solution 2:

To avoid restarting, you can just kill the Dock process and it will start up automatically, showing all open applications. Open the Terminal (Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal) and type:

killall -KILL Dock

The Dock will disappear and in a minute, reappear.
