Harry Potter saw what his heart most desires - his family alive and standing with him.
The Mirror of Erised - Erised spelled backwards is desire.
In the movie, Harry only sees his parents rather than his entire family.
He used the mirror to find the philosopher's stone too.
Harry saw himself standing with his parents.
Ron saw himself as Head Boy and Quidditch Captain holding the Quidditch Cup when he looked into the Mirror of Erised in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
Since "erised" is backwards for "desire," Ron was seeing what he wanted to be but couldn't be, since many of his brothers and Harry were fortunate enough to join the Quidditch team.
Nothing, as she has never been anywhere near the Mirror.
Rowling says that if Hermione were to look into the Mirror, she'd see herself, Ron and Harry unscathed, with Voldemort defeated.

Albus Dumbledore told Harry Potter that it was called the Mirror of Erised and asked him if he knew what it did. To help, Dumbledore said that a man who has everything can look into the mirror and only see himself.
Harry thought it showed you what you wanted, when you wanted it. Dumbledore corrected him by explaining that it showed your hearts deepest desire.
Albus Dumbledore told Harry that he saw himself holding a pair of socks. Harry suspects he isn't telling the truth and finds out several years later that he wasn't. Dumbledore actually saw his family together again.
Harry Potter learns that it is called the Mirror of Erised and that it shows your hearts deepest desire. Dumbledore also tells him that he sees himself holding a pair of socks and that it will be moved the next day.
Neville Longbottom would probably see his parents sane and able to be apart of his life.
Frank and Alice Longbottom were tortured to insanity by a group of death eaters that included Bellatrix Lestrange and Barty Crouch Jr when Neville was only a year old. The death eaters believed that Frank and Alice had information on Lord Voldemort's whereabouts.
They spent the rest of their lives in hospital where Neville visited them frequently. Frank and Alice's brains had been so badly damaged that they couldn't communicate. They didn't know what was happening around them.
Alice Longbottom used to give Neville sweet wrappers which he would always keep. Just like Harry, Neville never had the chance to know his parents. Unlike Harry, Nevile had to endure the pain of seeing his parents alive but not having them know who he was.
Harry Potter saw himself surrounded by his entire family (excluding the Dursleys) all of whom he had never known. The Mirror of Erised shows your hearts deepest desire and at that time what Harry wanted more than anything was his family.
In the movie adaptation, Harry only sees his parents.
Later at the end of the book, Harry sees himself with the philosopher's stone.
Albus Dumbledore claimed to see himself holding a pair of socks. When Harry looks surprised he tells him that you can never have enough socks. Later Harry wonders if Dumbledore was telling the truth.
In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows we find out that he was indeed lying as he actually saw his whole family in the mirror - just like Harry did.
Ron Weasley saw himself in his seventh year as Head Boy and Gryffindor Quidditch captain holding the Quidditch cup.
Ron is the sixth Weasley to attend Hogwarts and always felt very pressured by his brothers. Bill was a prefect and Head Boy before securing a good job for Gringotts. Charlie was a prefect and Quidditch captain. Fred and George were also on the Quidditch team.
His only hope of being better than them was to combine all of their achievements.
